/ Weight Loss on 11-04-2007 21:08pm
So, I'm a little self-conscious, not because I'm in horrible shape, but because I'm short and stout: it's just a frame. However, I have this probably bad habit of checking my BMI, body fat percentage and waist-to-hip ratio. I feel like I'm in good shape.

Hi there.
So, my uncle (married to my mom's sister) died of Cystic Fibrosis before I was born, six months after he married my aunt. So, I knew that he had died, but I didn't know what he died of until very recently. So, I've started to wonder more about what this actually is. What exacly goes wrong? What symptoms happen? Of course, I've hear... more

/ Dyslexia on 06-18-2007 16:27pm
I come from a families of dyslexics, even though I am not dyslexic. Out of the six of us kids, two are dyslexic, as well as my dad.
My dad hires a lot, (he's a managing engineer), and he says that he would rather that a dyslexic person keep it to themselves, because he would think that they were playing for pity, or threatening to call discrimi... more
