I need to lose 40+ pounds by the middle of may. I know some of you will say its not healthy but I need to I have already been taking tha acia berry pills what else can I do to make this goal happen? (link)

A low carb diet is the fastest way I've found to lose weight. I promise you this will work.
Here's what you do:
1.This is phase one...For 2 weeks eat meat , vegetables, and salad.
No, starches,No pasta, No potatoes, no rice, no bread, no sugar
2. The first 2 days will be hard. grit your teeth and get through it. You can do it. The 5th day the weight will start to come off and once it starts you will drop it fast
3. You can have as much salad, meat, cheese, milk, eggs, vegatables (But not corn)as you want.
You can have some almonds. Drink diet drinks and alot of water
4. for example Breakfast,,,4 egg cheese omlet with onions...lunch Tuna salad with cellerysticks, snack...beef jerky, supper...a great big steak with dinner salad or cooked vegatbles.
5. You may think this is unhealthy. A friend of mine lost 35lbs. this way. His colesterol and blood presure both went way down. It has to do with food combining also. The doctor said, "I don't know what you're doing but keep on doing it".
For more info Google atkins or low carb diets/ lifestyle.
6. keep going in phase one stage as long as you can. The longer you can stay in phase one the faster you will lose the weight
7. If you mess up and eat carbs don't worry about it and freak out just keep going with the diet
8. Phase 2...this gets a little tricky. You can add in what they call "good carbs" (a little brown rice maybe) but you must weigh yourself and if you stop losing weight you are adding to many to fast. If this happens return to stage one and continue
SPECIAL NOTE: To keep the weight off you will only be able to eat a few carbs. You will never be able to go back to unlimited sugar and carbs and keep the weight off. That's why it's called a "Lifestyle"

so right now im not in any sports (i usually am) and i have nothing to do after school so i'm really bored and out of boredom, i start snacking on stuff. what can i do to break this habit? (link)
|
You answered your own question. Get active, run, jog, lift weights, etc... Get a workout friend if you can.
Snack on trail mix or real food like rasins if you are hungry. Drink more water.
Many times your body signals hunger when what you actually are is thirsty (dehydrated).
It's a trick your body plays to obtain more fluid.
Also, try not to buy a bunch of junk food to start with.

So my best friend is turning 15 in a few days. I need some ideas on what to get her or do for her. I'm only 14 so I can't go expensive since I'm not very rich. I wanted to make her something. We've been best friends for like 7 years so I wanted to do something special for her. I'm thinking of trying to make a slideshow and have some pics on there but I don't really know how I can do it. I have pics from when we were younger and pics from now. So I could use both but how should I? If there are any other ideas you have please let me know. Thanks! (link)
|
You may also consider an actual picture frame full of real photos to hang on her wall. Slide shows you look at, then put away and forget about. You don't put away your wall :)

Okay!!
My friend, I really love him. I told him that... and at that time... he had a girl friend. He said that he liked me as a friend nothing more. Now, his girl friend broke up with him. I think he's really upset. I told him that I am sorry about everything. I told him he can call me if he wants someone to talk to. I REALLY care about him. I want to date him... but... I don't think he'll say yes. What SHOULD I do?? PLEASE ANYONE HELP! (link)

Find out if your zodiac signs are compatable. Unfourtunatly for you, you can't MAKE someone love you in a romantic way. It takes two people to be "In Love".
Give the guy some time. Let him know you are available but don't be pushy. Don't contact him every day but invite him to do something, a movie maybe.
Learning more about him is OK but don't get overinfatuated. Try to have fun with your life and try not to dwell solely on this one guy.
Sometimes guys want what is harder to get. If he sees you having fun and he knows you like him he will either come around or he won't.
Don't hinge your life on the outcome.

Me and my girlfriend have been talking for about 6 months. But started being gf bf about 2 months ago. Everything was going great we would talk all day. But a couple of days ago i could tell something was wrong. At first she didnt tell me when i asked but when she did she said that it was about her ex boyfriend but didn't want to tell me what exactly happened. Because she said she didnt want to worry me and that i had nothing at all to worry about. She said dont worry ill get over it in a little bit. I went to bed right after that because i didnt want to think about it anymore. The next day i apologized for letting it bother me and i told her that i trust her. But since then we havent been talking like we use to. Sometimes we do but i still get this weird feeling that somethings not right. Im trying really hard to get back to the way i thought it use to be by surprising her and letting her know how much i love her.
My question is am i over thinking? I know she loves me. Another thing recently someone she knew passed away. (link)

That's why dating is "dating" my friend. You are not married! A person is trying to figure out what and whom they want. This process many times produces numerous mistakes. If you love each other and enjoy being with her give her a little time. Many times these things have a way of working themselves out.
There also is a possibility that her heart is somewhere else, or somewhere in the middle. Again, a little time may sort this out.
Concerning the death of her friend, this is very difficult. Remind her that God has a plan for us all. She may just need to think things through.

ok so i really like this guy, the problem is my mom thinks he is ugly.
he may not have like the cutest face in the world but he has an AMAZING body like his abs and muscles are like crazy!
and hes also a really nice guy.
BUT my mom says he's ugly and he isn't good enough for me and i better not date him because i "i could do way better than him" my mom thinkings im just desperate for a boyfriend or something but i really like him! What should i do :( :( (link)
|
True beauty stems from within. It seems your mother should know this...regardless it's not like going out on some dates with this guy means you are going to marry him.
Ask your mother if her mother (your grandmother)picked all of her boyfriends? Or did she go out with guys she liked?
Make sure the guy is of good moral character and point this out to your mother. Stand up for this guy if you really like him. Your mother may come around.
I am supposing you are old enough to date so just have fun, but wait to ever have sex until you are very sure. Don't let your hormones rule your sensability.

I unfortunately fell for someone who doesn't like me... in a relationship way.He told me were just friends... and I REALLY love him. I can't get him out of my mind!! I really need to get over him. I told him how I felt...he said he just likes me as a friend nothing more. So... I'm heart broken. I can't find anyone else... I really want someone special in my life. I can't find anyone who likes me . I don't understand why... can someone give me some tips on how to get over him? How can I find someone that likes me back?? Please... anyone give me some advice. Uh...I am 13...if that matters.
Thanks!! (link)

Getting over love is hard for anybody....but it's a little like falling of a bicycle, you have to jump back on and keep trying or you never reach your objective.
Do the things you like to do. Get involved with activities that center around your interests. You may find other boys there that like the things you like.
You are young. Try to have fun. Boys like girls that have fun.

Sometimes when I get nervous or really hyper, I start to sweat! Only on my face, too! My nose get's really shiny, and the little dimple between my mouth and nose gets really sweaty. So I always have to wipe it off, and it looks like I'm wiping my nose or something! Also when I'm talking to like ANY boy, even if I totally don't like them or they're ugly, my face gets flushed. I don't really blush, but my face kind of turns red and it feels like a fever.
Please help!! I don't know how to stop these embarrassing things! Any help is appreciated! Thanks!! (link)

What you have sounds like a form of stage fright discribed by entertainers and famous people. These entertainers have an old trick they use when they have stage fright......they close thier eyes, take a deep breath, and picture the audience naked in thier mind.
This can be really funny and actually can work. If you are more calm and at ease you may not sweat so much!

My younger sister (22) and I (24) have always been pretty different and disagreed on many things. She is an extremely devote catholic (she intends on becoming a nun) and I’m really, just not. For the past few years we always just agreed to disagree and to not talk too much about things we know will only upset us both and disrupt family gatherings. This really works as far as I’m concerned: I don’t need to argue with her and I’m okay with disagreeing with her.
The trouble is lately she’s gotten downright belligerent about it. She sent out an e-mail to a whole bunch of people that included a lot of ‘facts’ about intelligent design and young earth (basically, she said evolution was nonsense and that the world is only 6,000 years old ‘cause the bible says so). I sent her (just her, not her whole list) some links that dispute that and point out some of the problems with the evidence she said she had of the world only being that old. Some of the stuff she included was just untrue, and I thought she should know it. In the past she’s always been pretty reasonable and we could have these sorts of conversations, even though we both know we disagree!
In response, she e-mailed everyone in my family telling them that I am going to hell, that I’ve rejected God, and that they should force me to move in with other more faithful family members because I can’t take care of myself and that I might do drugs or other awful things if someone doesn't stop me... and I could kill her! Not only is that bullshit! That was really painful for my parents, and grandparents and aunts and uncles to read! Some of them are religious and some aren’t, but it was still frightening and hateful and upset them! My littlest sister was in tears about it and asking everyone why she hates me.
I’m really livid! I don’t even know what to do with this much anger. I haven’t responded to her, although apparently my mom had a talk with her and told her that that was not cool, but I’m kind of at the point where I never want to speak to her ever again! I just think she’s a nasty, stupid, little monster for doing that.
Does anyone have any advice on what I can do about this and how to approach it? I just want things to be okay for my family. I don’t need us to all agree, I just need a bit of respect. Obviously I’m never going to try and talk sense to my sister again, but what do I do now? (link)
|
I think the best way to handle this is for you to calm down and basically turn your sisters belief back on her. Beat her at her own game so to speak.
Remember if she wants to be a nun then she must believe what the Bible says. To start with the Bible says "Judge not lest ye be judged". This means the only one that can judge your actions is God (not her). Keep in mind these are HER beliefs from her own Bible.
Also don't return her hatred and meanness WITH hatred and meanness. Return your rebutle with love. This will show all onlookers who has the "Godly" attitude and who does not.
You also may want to read up on the Roman Catholic church. The Catholic church has changed original Christianity so much that I doubt Jesus would recognize it! Google "the problem with Catholisism".....if you confront her I'm sure it will increase her anger, but again the Bible says "Prove all things"
Most people go through spiritual phases in thier life. Remind her of the parable of the prodigle son. If she doesn't remember it then she should read it. For her to be truely Godly is for her to show you kindness and consideration and hope for your return to faith. As the old saying goes, "You atract more flies with honey than with vinegar" True Christians follow the ways of Jesus. I suggest she start.

So sometimes when I see ANY boy I know that I see outside of school (or even just when I make eye contact) my heart flutters. Even if it's like the nerdiest, ugliest, weirdest (etc...) boy from my school, my heart still skips a beat. It's so weird and annoying! I don't know why this happens! I know I can't exactly stop it from happening, but can someone at least explain why this happens?? Thank you very much! (link)
|
Usually a flutter of the heart per say is a nervous reaction. Boys will be boys. Usually what you see is what you get with boys. No frills, no extras, they just act like boys so don't be afraid of them.
Try and talk to more boys, this way hopefully you will become more at ease in thier presence. Just say hi. Always remember, when talking to the opposit sex, it's not always that important what you say (as long as you are not rude or crude). For instance, if a boy you really like comes up to you and speaks, if you like him you won't walk away, you'll talk.
So if you say hi to a boy and he likes you he'll talk to you.
Remember to smile!

I have this major crush on this boy/guy who i'll never see again. i saw him on campus this week, but i've never seen him before so chances i'll see him again is soo non-existant.
he knows i saw him and he knows i was looking at him. he's 5 years older than me (and that's not a problem) but i think he may have a girlfriend. i added him on myspace but he has tons of friends and im pretty sure he'll never notice me.
honestly i think i just need to get over it. should i just forget about it? I know it'll take a few weeks to forget about him....so what should i do? (link)
|
If you feel this strongly about the guy try and find him. Hang out without being to obvious. Maybe he will respond. It can't hurt to try. What if he was to end up being the love of your life? I met my wife right before she was to be married. She then decided to become "un-engaged" In other words, don't let the girlfriend stop you! Like the old saying goes,"All is fair in love and war"

so i know this has happened before, but it's a lot more complicated than i thought it'd be. he's 100% catholic, i'm 100% atheist. we've had the long arguments before about who's right, etc. i mean, i know religion doesn't come in every day life for us, but still sometimes it bothers me when it does. so, how could i overlook this? (link)
|
I don't like the word religion. I like the thought of truth. Search for truth together, maybe you are both wrong, maybe not. Life is a journey you can only make with someone that you gel with.
Focus on positive and negative, right and wrong, good and evil. These topics will lead the two of you to common facts you can agree on. You may find you are more similar than you think, regardless of the source of knowlege.
Google the following and discuss these topics. Maybe you will both learn something.
1.Creationism
2.Intelegent design theory
3.the problem with Darwinism
4.Proof of God
5.What is wrong with the Roman Catholic Church
This may be a little deep for you. Ask a deep question, sometimes you get a deep answer.

okay so about 6 or 7 months ago i broke up with this guy jeremy for a multiple number of reasons. during that 6 and 7 month period he has been harassing the hell out of me!
he's sending me messages on facebook that say 'your a dirty whore go f*** yourself'
i got phone calls from restricted that had his voice on the other end saying creepy things.
i got strange screen names iming me saying they were one of my friends and when i asked my friends about it they had no idea what i was talking about.
so now me and this guy kevin are talking and were kind of going out... but not really. weve been on dates and were talking constantly and we've admitted to liking eachother... the typical.
so i get an inbox from my crazy ex boyfriend saying 'your a f****n bitch cuz you like kevin!' and hes making fun of him saying all these bad things.
he is in the same network as me on facebook so he can look at everything i do. and i talk to kevin a lot on facebook... and kevin is in the same network.
hes also been telling me that hes put a knife to his throat cause of me and crap like that. i know he's lying but he just won't admit it. half of the reason i broke up with him was cause of his lying.
i removed him as a friend on facebook, myspace, blocked him on aim, and blocked his youtube account!
he still finds ways to send me annoying and creepishly harrassing messages.
he wont leave me alone! i never respond to these messages cause i assume it will just be feeding the monster. but this has really got to stop before he gets carried away. hes coming to my school next year because of me and i feel as if hes stalking me!
i told my parents and theyre thinking of calling his parents and telling them everything thats happened. but i dont know if that will make things worse or not.
i honestly dont know what to do and hes scaring me.
help? (link)
|
Getting your parents involved may be the best thing to do if this guy is bothering you this badly, especially threatening stabbimg himself,etc...
I would discuss it with your parents and let them call the boys parents. Jeremy won't like it but he is the one that went to far. If he won't stop call the police. I'm not kidding.

I've been really depressed lately, because I have less friends than I did last year, and I feel really ugly/
my family is broke, so I cant afford and clothes that are cute, and every one tells me Im bad at dressinggg :( cause my only clothes are from the beginning of the year.
And I just feel really REALLY ugly and everything! I need help :( Im so depressed about how I look, and my teeth, and hair, and makeup and clothes (mostly) (link)
|
Hi and don't get to depressed. As the old saying goes "Misery loves company". Right now the economy is quite bad and you have plenty of company in being broke. Half of America is broke.
Find Goodwill and second hand stores. Especially in the rich sections of town. Many times these stores have designer cloths for almost nothing. I go there all the time.
Try to take walks. Walking releases endorphins in the brain causing you to feel better and not be depressed.
Fixing teeth generally costs money so that may require a dentist, but you still can brush!
Have your mother or a friend do your hair. There are many girls that have experience with hair that are not actually stylists. Look at magazines to find a "Look" that is "YOU".
Remember, true friends will still be there for you rich or poor. If these people have abandoned you, maybe they weren't very good friends to start with. Say a prayer. God loves you.

Hello, i was just wondering if someone could tell me what the doctors do for a physical for someone who is 18, i havent had one from a doctors in a while just a school physical where they just listen to your chest and simple stuff like that, thanks in advance (link)

WebMD.com is a great source for medical info.
Generally a doctor will do a physical exam, blood tests, urine tests, etc. pretty basic really

I just want to know all the ways you can tell if someone likes.They have to be TRUE facts not fake ones.If you dont know any can you give me a website that I could find the answer to my question.Thank you!!! (link)

I am assuming you mean "likes me" in a romantic way.
If someone likes you first of all,
1. they want to be with you
2. they care about how you feel, what you like, etc..
3. they will constantly be where you are and find oppourtunities to see you.
If you want to know if someone likes you just have a freind ask them. If they like you then it's simple....like them back!

I am wondering what i have, the symptoms are all over the place, my best friend and feonce say i could be pregnant but i don't believe i am cause i just had a regular period that ended two days ago. but the symptoms are:
- i have a garbage like smell from down there
- i am irritated very easily
- i am abnormally emotional
- i am having trouble falling asleep, and trouble waking up
- i have cramps but i just finished my period two days ago
- I was feeling nauseated for three to four days now i am fine.
Please only serious answers. (link)

take a home pregnancy test. Usually they are quite acurate. At the very least this will ease your mind, at the most you are actually pregnant and have decisions to make and a father to tell. A visit to your doctor may also be in order.

There is this guy I like and we grew up together from diapers. We were best friends. Then we grew apart. Well, now he is back in my life. We go to church together and I caught him staring at me.(that happens a lot) One day I asked him point blank if he liked me and he said he couldn't answer that because he has a girlfriend and it wouldn't be fair to her. What does this mean? Does he like me or is that his polite way of saying go away? Help!! (link)
|
Yes....he probably does like you. He wants to be fair to his girlfriend which may mean he actually is a decent guy! Don't feel you have to rush him. Keep talking and be subtle. If you both like each other things will eventually click. Try to have alot of fun and don't worry about it. Let nature take it's course!

I seem to scream, "Walk all over me!" All my friends do it, and people I'm not so close to. I'm always getting canceled on or "I'll be late" type of stuff. Its only started a few months ago, but its starting to get on my nerves. In fact, my closest friend does it the most. When I talk to her about it, she acts all bitchy and it makes me feel like I've done something wrong.
Should I say something to people? And if I should, what would I even begin to say?

When I was little my father gave me an excelent piece of advice. He was right and I never forgot it. He said,"In your life don't expect alot from people. If you do they will always let you down"
People usually don't mean to let you down but many people are just slack. Be confident in yourself and depend less on others. If they change their mind or don't show up, have a back up plan and go have fun without them or with someone else. You can't control others but you can controll yourself.
Have fun in your life and spend time with quality people. Birds of a feather flock together.

I was just wondering; the media and society have plastered images into the minds of young females that all men want are beautiful girls with slim waists, big boobs, and a butt. I was wondering what guys ACTUALLY want; what they look for in girls they 1.DATE 2.MARRY 3. ARE ATTRACTED TO
I rate high for good answers!
THanks.

Hello Madison,
Most guys are attracted to pretty girls. I think this goes without saying. Body types (big boobs,being slim, etc..)totally depends on the guy. A few guys love fat girls, some guys love the athletic type, some guys love the sexy studious type. If I am forced to generalize I would say that most young guys at first think about sex, sex and sex.....therefore initially many times they try for a girl that will give them easy sex. However many times this stage passes and the guy realizes those girls will go with anyone, give them Aides,etc...the outcome not being positive.
You know the old saying, "A girl you can take home to meet mother". Generally speaking that is the kind of girl most guys will marry. A girl that is honest, helpfull and loving.
I think anyone dating should always put their best foot forward and be themselves. This will attract someone that wants you for yourself. Making yourself clean and attractive is always a plus but never go overboard on the makeup. Remember, not every girl looks like "Barbie" and not every guy looks like "Ken".
I believe that there is someone in this world for each of us. Say a prayer that God leads you to your true love. If you believe then it will eventually happen.
