Finally losing Weight caused by Medications and Pepsi

I was alergic to the medicines that treat diabetes without causing weight gain.  After taking a Diabetes medication that along with my Neuropathy medicine caused drastic weight gain (over 50 pounds in a very short time), I decided to start eating less and better foods.  I stopped eating junk and am no longer drinking Pepsi---but I still want it (I was addicted to it.).  I stopped taking my diabetes medicine (but started taking my blood sugar...

gluten/caesin/soy intolerant, help!

Just found out I am gluten/giladin intolerant (may have Celiac Disease).  My doctor told me to avoid soy because it has the exact same molecular structure as wheat with the exception of one little tiny piece of the molecule!! I cannot find anything to substantiate this. He even wants me to avoid dairy. So restrictive and hard to find things that are GFCFSF (gluten/casein/soy free). HELP, please!!

WHO CAN FIND THE SOLUTION?

If my country doesn't want to help me, does this mean that all my work can be stolen so easy and no one care? The thief's countries help them while my country doesn't care.

Sunny's Cancer Part # 15 / Sunny Has Passed Away

Around 2pm Sunny's cancer battle ended. Her blood pressure dropped too low and they could not bring her around. I am okay, but I am angry. Her one thing was to not leave me stranded ... she felt terrible about this one thing. I am going to get some help from the social worker where Ma is in the nursing home. and I already spoke to her. It might be okay. I was supposed to...

Triplets' show made me cry

I was so saddened by the commercial theme of the triplets' baby show.  Do you realize how many mothers can't even buy food and diapers for their babies, yet you show baby rooms with furniture that costs thousands of dollars.  Then, to push their line of new products was a real slap in the face. Regular people like me shop in second-hand stores and yard sales to buy items for needy mothers and babies.  It just...

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENT?

Killer kills one, two, or more persons. So the results of his action dead persons. Migraine since 1998 (when I discovered migraine surgery and self treatment), became a very simple disease that can't kill any migraine patients. But because of (some official Doctors) don’t want you to know about my migraine surgery, so the result of their action is too many migraine patients were killed by suicide since my migraine discovery. This is the question...
