Avatar m tn My mother is a nurse who disagrees with me that you need a structured diet and fitness program from a doctor to truly lose weight. She is giving loads of grief because I want to the lose weight but I have not done any exercising till I have seen the specialist concerning it.

Avatar n tn Once you have that you will need to build up gradually rather than jump right into a high intensity/impact activity like tennis. A cardiac rehab program might be able to guide you along the best path to build your strength and endurance.
Avatar n tn m sorry, but something seems amiss here. If she has a diagnosis of SB and CP, then that is a reason for her to not be able to run and any doctor would be able to see that.

Avatar n tn At home we continuously tell my new 6th grader (only) child not to talk in class and in the hallway. But we receive notes and oral comments from two teachers that he talks in class and in the hallway after being warned.

Avatar n tn Ive also had several sports massages on my knees which really helps for a week or so and then the problems return, so it must not be treating the underlying problem. I haven't run since the injury occurred. I've played football (soccer) a few times, but not for over a month now and there isn't much of an improvement. What can I do about this?

990988 tn?1249273779 Hello, I am currently using www.Totellwellness.com as an emotional eating program and so far it has worked well even with out a diet.

Avatar f tn t know where you are, but our community college in Portland, Oregon has a diploma program that would be perfect for you.
