about

hola! my name is kait. im fouteen. i swim, dance, twirl, and act. i loove my friends. i have no idea where i would be without them. my family is awesome too. without their support i could never be where i am today. my hopes for the future are to go to duquesne university, do the whole pgh. triathalon, and travel the many different countries. i love helping people and giving them advice..hope i'll be able to help you.

advice

5"1, 85 pounds. If I gained 10 pounds in muscle, how would it look different than if I gained 10 pounds of fat by eating cake and french fries and deep oil-fried Twinkies? Would I look slimmer?

10 pounds of muscle will make you look toned while 10 pounds of fat will make you look fat. and the fat will go to your stomach and thighs while you can work out and make muscles where you want them..if that make sense...lol

hope this helps!

This is a bit random but is it ok to chew gum? I dont mean instead of a meal but between meals and etc.

Im wondering because since they're sugar-free they have sucralose (sp) and aspartame in them. I have heard both good and bad things about those sweetners. Is it ok for your health to chew 1-2 pieces a day (like Orbit), they wont make you gain weight or anything?

Thanks in advanced.

there arent enough sweeteners in a piece of gum to make it unhealthy. there are a lot of other ingredients so it doesnt make a difference

hope this helps!

I just bought a tankini top (I have so much trouble finding one that fits but this one fit nicely and was cute so I had to get it) but the bottoms that went with it were pretty ugly lol. So I was wondering what would go with it if I just decided to mix and match with another bottom? There is a picture of it here:

The only thing I'm not really open to is something that is really revealing. I would appreciate your suggestions!

Thanks =]

I can't swallow pills and so i usually cut big ones in half or something, but these new ones i got taste AWFUL without the coating on it and because it's cut i can taste it. it's so bad i cant even take them, are there any ways that you can like mix them into something so you don't taste much of it? thank you so much

my sister is the same exact way..she takes the pills and crushes them up between two spoons until its powder-ish and puts in in about a cup of milk or orange juice and just drinks it.

hope this helps!

ok so my boyfriend and i have been going out for about 1 month and i have decided that i am not really that into him anymore i mean we kissed and have had our moments but is there a nice way to let him down gently and still be friends!?!

breaking up with somebody is always really hard. i think you should just call him or see him but dont do it over aim or e-mail. and just tell him that you dont have the same feelings for him anymore. tell him you still want to be friends, but tell him like you mean it. you can still hang out with him and let him know that. treat him like one of your friends from now on..hope this helps!

My mom wont make my wrap without shredded cheese. I was wondering, in general, what type of cheese is healthiest (mozarella, monterey jack, cheddar, feta, etc.)?

for the most part, mozzarella is usually the healthiest kind of cheese.

why does drinking alcohol help my headaches?

it relieves stress, like an anti-depresent but i wouldnt recommend drinking it for that reason

hi.. im 17, 5'9, 122lbs, and a female
i'm extreemly active/atletic

recently i have been getting lightheaded really easily.. like when i work out really hard or when i just get up too fast in the mornings.. i'm thinking its my blood sugar.. but i am not sure

if you have any ideas on maybe what it is or what i need to eat to make it better than fill me in... it is just weird becasue i always have a ton of energy i just have been getting light headed.

if your getting light headed working out, you dont have enough energy. drink a lot of gatorade before and during work outs. it helps a lot!

hope this helps!

if i wear a tampon in the pool nothing will happen right? then when i get out of the pool i just need to change the tampon?

nothing will happen when you're in the pool and when you get out you dont need to change it right away but eventually. i would within an hour.

hope this helps!

I think I could have an infection in my underarms. Lately, since it's been summer, I can't fall asleep at night because of the irritation in my armpits.
I use "Certain Dri" night deodorant, which has always caused an irritation. The label said stop use if irritation or rash occurs, and I've always had an irritation/rash there, but never too bad. However, despite this I continued to use it because it was the only thing that stopped my sweating. Its pretty wierd, because now that its summer, my arm pits feel really itchy when I'm trying to go to sleep (Certain Dri is a night deodorant, which while you sleep, it shrinks the pores to limit prespiration). This past week, its been HORRIBLE, and every morning when I wake up, my underarms are so sensitive I can barely move my arms because ottherwise it sort of "chafes" (sp?) but in my armpit area.
It keeps me awake every night for about 2 hours, and then causes me pain in the morning. I don't think that I can stop using it though, because its summer and I hang out with a lot of boyyss =]
SO PLEAASE help me I have no idea what to do!

i would definity stop using it. if you go to the doctors they can give you a perscription deoterent that will help!

hope this helps!

My friend has Photo shop, and I really liked it.

Is the Free download a gimic? Or is it really free?

How long do you have it for, and does it screw up your computer at all?

Thanks.

be careful where you download the free one. make sure its from a trusted site and they usually only stay for about 2 weeks. the free one doesnt have everything on it either just the basics.

hope this helps!

im only 13 years old and im desepret for a job and i cant find one thats pays good pay the one i have is ripping me off im im so mad please help me



well, at 13 its difficult to get a job. but since its summer, you're going to find more options.

these aren't necesarially "steady" jobs but...:

-babysit
-work at the pool [you need to be 15 to lifeguard but you can ask if you can work in the snack bar..]
-teach swim lessons [these pay well! i make about $20 a week doing this]
-pet sit
-help neighbors with chores

sorry i dont have a lot but i would definitly check bullitens [in the library, municipal building] and check the papers. a lot of people could use your help!

hope this helps and good luck!
