I wanted to start a weight loss competition this summer in my family, but I wanted it to be fair. For example its probably easier for my 260 pound brother to lose a pound than my 160 pound mom.

So whats is the best way to compare? Should it just be percentage of mass? Should fat be considered? Should i buy a body fat analyzer? Because i guess if someone lost 10 pounds of fat and gained 3 pounds of muscle, wouldn’t that be better than someone else who just lost 9 pounds of fat?

Just curious what people’s thoughts on this are, i want it to be as fair as possible but with accurate measures of comparison.

Its been a month I got scalds on my arms with boiling water.The skin exposed after blister removal has blackened.New skin has yet to form.What care should I take.I do all my household work,I specially want to know that can I wash dishes with detergents with bare hands.?My hands are also burnt…..what other tips for good recovery?

Im taking a muscle growth supplement, and another pill (for health reasons, nothing big, just simple), and thinking about taking another or two vitamin/supplement to help me stay healthy. how can i tell if dangerous or will be unhealthy? or is this just already unhealthy?

I am 21 and the only sort of special care I take towards my skin besides washing it daily is applying SPF 50 Sunscreen. I recently read that under eye cream is important for the 20′s. Is this true? What is the right age to start applying anti-aging creams? What are some good eye/face creams for 20 year olds?
Oh and I think I have fine lines under my eyes–not sure if it’s a major issue or just looking to closely in the mirror.

During puberty my facial hair appeared under my chin and to my neck before it ever got to my face. It actually got thick like an adults beard 2 years before I had hair on my upper lip? Why?

I want to lose about 8-10 kilos..
How long would it take me to lose this weight? Currently i weigh 136 lbs,
What is the best diet plan & fitness regime,
What foods should i avoid or cut out of my diet,
If you have dieted succesfully could you please tell me what you ate and how you kept yourself motivated.
Thanks in advance

I have been using ProActive skin care for about a month and a half now. It works wonderfully! For about three weeks. Now I’m starting to break out again. Could my skin be growing immune to it? The same thing has happened with other products, I use them until they stop working. I’m 25, and would really like the acne to be gone.

You know there’s a normal pattern that men’s stubble follow along their face; well my facial hair kind of tapers off along the cheeks so that it doesn’t completely fill the pattern and instead looks like there are a few stray hairs. How can I get the regular shape facial hair takes along the cheeks to the jawline?

Warm weather is just around the corner and would like to lose a few pounds. So what is out there at our local stores (GNC, Vitamin Shoppe, etc) that i can take to help me increase my weight loss?

I’m only 25 and I defiantly don’t look old, but i’m starting to notice some things different and not in a good way. I just want something as a preventative measure. So i’m just curious at age 25 what anti-aging products would be good. I have fair, combination skin and still break out pretty regularly. Also I already use sunscreen every day. Any suggestions on products, certain ingredients or regimens would be appreciated.
