Is there any commercial carrier of human growth hormone inducers that deliver outside the U.S.? Are there any harmful effects? None that I know of. HGH (human growth hormone) is only available by doctor's prescription only. Injected HGH stimulates growth, increases metabolism and has other side effects. I would recommend its use only under a...

I talked with somebody from the Helpline and they got me thru the worst part. Going back the dietitian would be hard for me since I don't do what she wants me to do. Thanks for talking with me you are helping me get things off my chest and out of my body and...

I am 18 and I have been bulimic for the past 2 years. I just recently told my parents about my condition. They seemed concerned and said they would try to find me help. Lately, anytime I bring the subject up my parents ignore me or act like I am a hypochondriac. I know...

Five days ago I started on Slim Fast as a substitute for just 1 meal a day. I drink it in place of lunch and eat a light breakfast, a sensible dinner, with no desserts and low-fat cooking. I've already lost 5 pounds. I've started "lap-walking" at our local mall, too. Yesterday I noticed a...

I recently started taking a diet product called Omni Trim. Have you heard of it? Is it supposed to curb your appetite and speed up your metabolism? Thank you. Since I don't know which one of the many Omnitrim products you are using, I'll tell you about a few of them. According to the Omnitrim...

Recently, my best friend was diagnosed with anorexia. After that, the friends I sit with at lunch started eating 100 to 200 calorie lunches. This was a huge change from the normal meals I'd seen them eat. Is this just a passing call for attention? Wow, that's interesting, but not surprising. Are all your friend's...

I'm a 42-year-old male and am fighting a weight battle. The only diet that has worked for me is meat and vegetables. I cut out all bread, potatoes, and macaroni. How long should it take me to lose 30 pounds? Your weight loss depends on how many calories you have been eating per day, how...

My wife would like to follow the Weight Watchers Program which she has used before. She claims it is the only program that will work for her. I enjoy preparing our meals and would like her to feel comfortable eating what I prepare. Is there software out there that will convert regular recipes into...

I went and filled out the Healthy Body Calculator® that you created. The information it provided was very helpful, but I do have another question. Given the nutritional results it provided for me, how do I split them up throughout the day? Do I measure what I should have for each meal that will provide...
