My dad'ss BMI is 36 !! Does that mean he needs to lose weight? He's 6 feet and 267 pounds!! He wears XXXL clothes and I'm scared for his health! He told me he hasn't even jogged or gone to a gym in 28 years. And hes 45! He won't even buy dumbells or tredmills or anything! I'm afraid he'll die. And he WILL NOT excersize! He's had counceling but he tells everyone that he has no TIME to excersize because he's obsessed with working! And even on Christmas he was doing work while everyone was eating and laughing! I dont know what to do! (link)

first off im sorry you feel this way, like your in a position where you feel as though you cant do anything. i think you should contact a doctor or another couseler and tell them about your dads situation and have them tell him the serious consicunses of his weight issue and how he needs to take his life back in control. tell your dad how YOU feel and maybe he will try to change for the better of himself AND to try to make you happy and feel as though you dont have to worry so much. he might start changing just because he knows taht you are scared for him and you want to help him more than anything. ask if you need anything else hun i hope i helped all the luck

Hello!
I live right near Six Flags` Amusement Park && I`m having my fourteenth birthday there. Problem is my brother && sister, who are both younger, age 11 && 8 want to come with me && my friends to the park along with my parents. I want to go along with just my friends, but I don`t think my parents will let me. I just went to the park last Saturday alone with my friend (who`s 14) & my parents weren`t exactly fine with it but they let me go anyways. Well I don`t know if it`s too much to ask of them to let me go alone. I mean there`s only me and like 4 of my bestfriends...How can i convince them to let us go alone for a few hours? The majority of my friends have cellphones but yeah...what should i do? kthx!! (link)
|
heyy i think that you should convince your parents by telling them you will call them every hour to check in and you will be in a group with about 5 or 6 people all together and never leave each others sides. tell them that your getting older and you want this one chance to be alone with your friends and have a good time. tell them that you are fully trustworthy and you can prove it to them by asking them for this chance and obeying their rules. stay calm and reason your offer rationally because yelling or whining usually never works lol. i hope it works have an awesome time ask if you need anythin else lots of luck

Alright well since last week i've been kinda "out of it" bacuse my cousin killed himslef on June 3rd and I just feel like "out of it". Like I feel like i ahve so much goin on inside my head and i cant concentrate well.... and of course now its finals and regents time in my school! I feel tired all teh time too, but thats becasue i havent gotten much sleep since then.....
i dont know if its beacuse of what happend to my cousin but its so weird, ive never been like this before.... (link)
|
oh im so sorry about your cousin that is very sad. i just lost my cousin a couple of weeks ago too and its the hardest thing ever trying to cope without him. the way your feeling is probably a reaction to your loss. people grieve in all sorts of different ways, it can also be because of stress that the school year is ending and finals are coming. you really should try to get lots of sleep it does help a lot and makes you feel more refreshed. as for the ADD i dont know much about that but you could always talk to a parent or someone whom you trust in to talk to them about. i hope i helped im sorry again lots of love and luck

Ok here is the thing, my friend and her boyfriend started having sex about 6 maybe 7 mounths ago, and i do not have any problems with that. But since then she has thought she might be pregant 4 times! Im scared that she might not be careful untill she becomes pregant. Her boyfriend told her that if she ever did become pregant then he would leave her. I don't vare if she has sex, i just don't want her to another 15 year old girl who becomes pregant. Do you think i should but in because, everytime she calls saying she needs me to come over so she I can read the pregancy results, i tell her that she lucky that she's not, and she should start useing protection. she says she doesn't need it cuz she is on the pill. should I but in, or should i just be the friend that warns her,then reads the results, tell her she lucky and that she should protection? (link)
|
i think seeing as shes your close friend, you neeeed to talk to her. even if she is on the pill, it is still a possibility she could get pregnant and you need to let her know that. remind her of the diseases that she could get also! shes not in the clearing just because of a pill. tell her that if she wants to continue having sex she really should have protection. its the safest way to go. after you explain all of this to her and really tell her how you feel whats best for her, then she can make her own decision. you cant force her into doing anything she doesnt want to, but you can say that you most definetly warned her if .. something goes wrong. which we pray to god not to happen. i hope i helped lotts of luck

Okay, My sister Amanda gets really mean....and won't let me shop at "Abercombie" "Hollister" "Pac Sun" or "Zummies",and the only reson is because she shops at hot topic!!
also she won't let me listen to what music i like,
WHAT SHOULD I DO????????????
love,
sophie skilling (link)
|
i agree that your sister is treating you unfairly. as long as its ok with your parents/guardians, you should be able to shop where you want and buy what youd like,and listen to what music you want! not follow your sister just because shes making you. you could try asking her why she is acting the way she is and being so controlling, maybe she has a good reason. then ask if she could tone it down a little. if she decides to keep bugging you, make sure you bring it up with your parents. even if she gets mad at you for this, at least your going to be able to get a lot more of what you want. i hope i helped much love&luck =)

I'm 20 years old,quite old enough for living alone,but i've got a big problem.My parents and especially my dad doesn't allow me to move to and began my new independent life.I feel like i'm in prison here.could anyone advise me what to do? (link)
|
your 20 years old! if moving out and on with your life, then do it! youve parents only have control of you until your 18 rite? i think that your def. old enough to make your own decisions. you know how parents are, always attached to their kids. tell your parents you will still see them and talk to them alot, reasure them that you will be fine but its time you move on. wether they like it or not, its your decision. hope i helped much luck =)

me and my boyfriend have been together for 6 months. i love him to death and hes going to be the ONE. we spend hours talking about our wedding plans and the future and i am extermly happy with him....but i cant stop thinking about suicide. im so happy with him but i remember all the mistakes i have made and it depresses me and makes me want to just fall off the earth and die. even mistakes from like 1st grade i still am embarassed. everytime i walk by a mirror i want to throw up. i cant stand my apperance. i always feel so fat, ive had many long lasting eating disorders. no matter how much anyone ever tells me im beautiful or wicked skinny. i just want to DIE. im only 15 so theres not much i can do. anyone have any suggestions? thanks for your help. i rate 5's. (link)
|
suicide is not the answer to anything! please stop having those thoughts. we just had a huge discussion on this in health class and i honestly dont mean to lecture you, im sure youve heard it all before, everyone is beatiful and individual and thats what makes them a great person! if you feel like your losing control of your life, then you need to talk with your parents, which might not sound very good right now, but you can also talk to your boyfriend!!! hes been with you for six months and i think that he could really help you out. when people say you look pretty and thin they are probably not lying! go see a counselor or phsyciatrist that can help you also. if you dont feel confident about your image, then eat healthy, excerise daily, and pamper yourself! have fun because life is short and you only get one of them. go to a beauty counter with your friends or the movies or the mall and buy some new clothes!take up after school activites to busy yourself but stay positve and if your always in control of your life, its going to coast by a whole lot easier. i hope i helped ask for anything if you need to much love & luck!!!

ok i need some serious advice on how to make it so that i accually wake up when my alarm clock goes off because normally i just shut ot off and then go back to sleep... and i cant move it because there is no where else to plug it in. and ive tried moving it away from my bed but then when it goes off i just get up, bring it near my bed, and go back to sleep. i have no idea what to do... i cant go to sleep earlier because i cant fall asleep till 11, i dont get ttired till then....would some one help me please? (link)
|
i always hate getting up in the morning too so i know how you feel. but one thing that really helps me is that you know how when you wake up in the morning and its cold? keep a warm sweatshirt by your bed so in the morning when u wake up in the morning you wont want to crawl back into your bed. and another thing i do is put a really cold washcloth in a towel on a pillow next to me so when i wake up in the morning i have a freezing cold cloth on my face which really gets me up. get a loud alarm clock too i hope i helped much luck

My mom never wants me to pluck my eyebrows on my own, so she takes away the tweesers. (I don't think I do that bad of a job) But usually, I find the tweesers and fix up my eyebrows.
But I can't find them, and my eyebrows are really growing back. All I have are these big tweesers that open real wide and are really hard to use.
I should get them professionally done, but I'm embarrassed to ask my mom. help asap? (link)
|
i know exactly how you feel! i was in the same position. dont be embarassed tho, if she doesnt want you doing them yourself, then its ok for you to ask that you want someone professional to do it for you. waxing is not as bad as it sounds and you shouldnt wax that much off because you want semi-thick shaped eyebrows, not thin thin. ive been having a pro do mine for a while and i love them! after you ask your mom, and pursuade her to go get them done and see the result, you will be glad you went through the effort and now you can get them done regularly! hope i helped much luck to you!! =)

how can i get my songs from limewire to iTunes???
♥
thanks (link)
|
first click on the tab LIBRARY. then at the top where all your music is saved, click on one song so its hightlighted. then click the button "Enqueue" it should take the song to the bottom underneath where it says "name". keep highlighting the songs and clicking "Enqueue" untill you have all the songs you want to save as a playlist. then, highlight all those songs and click "SAVE AS" on the bottom. make sure you save it in your "music" folder and title it. then open itunes. hit "file" then "import" and there you go. make sure your importing your file from the same file you saved it in (music) hope i helped ask if you need anything else good luck!

I know getting a make-over for a guy is doing it for the wrong reasons!! But it's not like that, I'm not doing this so he'll want me. I'm doing it as a "thank you" for wanting me when I was ugly. He ALWAYS liked me for me. Never cared when people said "you're so hott, why date an ugly chick?" And I love him for it. But now, prom is almost here, in 4 weeks, and I want to blow his mind. I want to be drop dead GORGOUS, show off in front of his friends, make him proud, make people jelous of him, give him the attention he deserves and so on..
So how do I do this? How do I lose weight, get white teeth, get a tan,learn how to wear/put on make-up, be confident/sexy, and so on..in just 1 month?
Any advice would help! On any step of the make-over!! Have you ever had one? How'd it go? What did you do? Annnyyttthiing people :D
Thank you folks ;) (link)
|
i really like your idea. and while your getting this "make over" be sure to have a ton of fun in the process because it sure sounds like it. to lose weight, eat healthy every day, go to the gym or even work out at your house for about a 1/2 to an hour every day. crunches, treadmill, etc. to get white teeth, will be hard in just a month, but you can definetly true white crest strips my friends have used them and said it was great. or ask your dentist for a suggestion. i would suggest the spray on tan but make sure you try it out BEFORE prom! tanning in dangerous and increases your risk of melonoma. take some friends to the mall and go to a beauty counter. they will give you a makeover and show you how to put on makeup and waht your colors are its soo fun. to be confident and sexy, just be yourself! i know that doesnt sound very advicey lol but its true. if you just dance and laugh and have a great time, to others your going to look tooootally confident and sexy i promise. i hope i helped ask if you need anything else i hope you have fun!!! much luck to you! =)

I was talking to my friend who lives in a different state (she lives in Wisconsin) and she said that they don't have short stirrup classes there. Do only certain states have it? What states do/don't?
P.S. Short stirrup is a class usually opened to people under 12 (this is my friend's last season of doing it, I never did it) and it's usually jumping and one or two flat classes. There are only usually 4 jumps. (link)
|
i dont think it matters on what state, i think it is what kind of competition it is. it depends on waht show you are going to! hope i helped =)

I have to present a speech infront of about 30 people tomorrow for class and I'm REALLY nervous. I'm doing an oratorical speech and it's just so crazy. My friends have told me to breathe in and out but it only works for like 4 minutes. I've never done a speech before, this is my first time. So...is it alright to be nervous? And what do you suggest I do when I'm up there?
Thanks (link)
|
it is totally normal to be nervous! a few days ago i had to do the same thing, present a speech in front of 30 people, but mine was in spanish! i was soo nervous i asked my mom for help. this is what i think you should do: 1) you should most definetly voulunteer to give your speech toward the beginning of class. this way, you will it over with quickly and everyone else will go after you and barely remember yours, this is espcially a good trick if your nervous. 2) now if your the only person giving a speech its a dif sit. stay confident, smile and try to relax. everytime i do something like this i ask God to help me with a quick prayer and it usually works. talk loudly and clear and remember that these people are not looking to point out your flaws. 3)practice practice practice your speech before you get up there! it will make you 100% more confident i promise! i hope i helped and i hope everything goes smoothly much luck too you!

So.. wow this is kinda embarassing..
Since I'm the one usually giving advice, and now I really need some! Please help :)
okay, well I heard that when people are stressed/depressed or stuff like that they can either start eating a lot, or eating less and getting an eating disorder.
Well today was really bad, and I just want to keep eating food, and I dont know why, I feel hungry, but I dont want to get fat. I'm upset, but ahh how do I control this? (link)
|
well yes its true that some people resort to food when they are depressed or sad. but that doesnt have to be you. when your sad about something, dont think of eating as a comfort for you as many others do. pick something else. maybe something you enjoy. is there something that your really good at? try resorting to that instead. just because you are depressed and eat alot one day doenst necessarily mean that your going to get fat unless you are sad a whooole lot. to keep in shape, the only things you need to stay on track with doing and getting in daily excerise, and eating healthy. thats all. i hope i helped much luck to you!
|
i really like this guy but im really shy so i dont know how i will get him to know with out actually telling him straight up. so what are some things i can do to flirt with him? (link)
|
first of all, if you want to flirt with a guy, you have to get over being shy. i know its hard because i was the exact same way. but you need to try. find out the stuff he likes to do, the sports he likes to play, who his friends are and just go over and strike up a conversation. act cute and sweet because first impressions are everything. i know this is easier said than done, but its def going to help you get noticed by him. much luck hope everything works out!
|
okay well just the other day i skipped a class and the principle or someone from the office is gonna call me down.. what do i say? (link)
|
When i skipped class, i made up a story and said that i was sick and throwing up in the bathroom. i would tell you to use this but you know what? it wasnt worth making up a lie for because i got caught anyway. and then i just got in more trouble. so after i told the truth, i did get in trouble but it blew over in a few weeks. so i highly recommend just telling the truth, saying your very sorry and it will never happen again. but stay strong because prinicipals dont go for the crying act. i hope i helped much luck to you

My name is Januari. I am thirteen, female, and I have an issue. Now I know all about the bads of drugs and what not but can we forget about them for a second. My best guy friend Derek got high for the first time last Friday. This usually wouldn’t be a big deal because me and most of my friends smoke pot but Derek said he wanted to for the first time with me there. Though this was not the case he did meet up with me that night while riding his bike and this is what happened: He comes up to me while I'm with a group of people and I know right away he's high, they don't. I ask him if he did it with so and so etc. he answers all of my questions with a giggle, a shrug, and a direct answer. He was acting a little different but not too much until he decided to get off his bike and lay on the grass. As a joke my friend Ashley goes I bet Januari wants to lie down next to Derek which is a reasonable comment considering I've had a huge crush on Derek since the beginning of time. But regardless he answers "I wouldn't mind that." with a smirk. I don't lie down just giggle and then walk away. He gets back on his bike comes over to me and in a sing song voice says "my dearest Januari,” At this point his two friends who got high with him are saying lets go and he’s standing there singing to me. Then I notice he is giving me this meaningful look and I want more than anything to kiss him but I don't. Then our lips are about a foot apart and he shrugs. Then I shrug and this continues for about one min. with each shrug our lips get closer. Just when it's about to happen I say you better go. He doesn’t get angry or anything just giggles and starts leaving and I walk away. But as he leaves he starts yelling my name but I pretend not to hear him. The thing is I know from experience and story of ear that you don't get high the first time you smoke. So there is this possibility that he was faking it all. And also Ashley thinks he is repressing his feelings through the substance unlike when he’s sober because then he acts just friends with me especially in front of his friends. I can't tell if he likes me and I thought maybe you could input something. If you bothered to read all of this say anything and I will rate high. (link)
|
wow thats a tough situation. first of all, you should not be smoking pot. its addictive and can take a toll on you like no other. but enough about that. i know you may want to think that he likes you, but from what your saying its half and half, very hard to tell. most guys are not going to be googly eyed over a girl in front of their friends either tho, and most guys around 12-13 are shy too. rite now i dont see many options but there is one option i always like going with. get it out in the open that you like him. then, if he likes you things pick up from there. if he doesnt like you, he could most definetly warm up to you and start seeing you in other ways as he would now. (guys are blind hehe) so i hope things work out dont rush it. i hope i hope i helped much luck

i want to get this boy alone so i can ask him to a dance but i can never seem to get him alone...he's always with friends! i think it's better to ask him in private right? i mean i don't even know his friends like at all, & i don't want to embarass him or anything (or myself haha). so anyways, how do i get him alone? i only see him in one class & sometimes in the hall but we are walking to classes so there's not time! i don't want to like ask in the middle of the hall in front of all the random people in the hall either! what should i do?!?!?! (i want to do it in person) (link)
|
i agree that you should ask him privately to make him and urself more comfortable. umm try to find the time in class. if hes with his friends politley say "hey can i talk to you real quick?" and just take him aside for a minute and do what you gotta do. if you realllly come to no more choices, then i would have to break my own rule and ask him online or the phone. if you do ask him on the phone or internet then just say "im sry i havent gotten a chance to talk to you in person latley but ... " so i hope i helped and much luck to you have fun at your dance
|
i broke up with my bf and he says he loves me real bad and wants to work things out. i dont wanna because dont really have anymore feelings for him but i didnt tell him that i told him that im gonna be to busy this summer to have a bf which is true. but i cant get him to stop wanting to be with me how can i get him to move on? (link)
|
if you dont want this guy as a boyfriend and you really want him to get off your back, straight off tell him. but in a nice way. tell him that hes a great guy but you both have nothing in common and you dont see him as a potential bf for you. politley say that he needs to pull himself together and move on, just as you have done. i think that should do it but if its doenst you can always ask me again lots of luck !!
