My names Casey. I'm a crazy cat lady who's obsessed about books and doesn't wear matching socks. I enjoy all kinds of tea and sometimes I believe in as many as six impossible things before breakfast.

Hello,
I Am a Vegan and My Parents Don't Truely Understand Why. I Explain To Them About Animal Welare,Yet They Still Don't Understand. My Mother Belives That Being A Vegan Is UnHealthy. Is It Truely UnHealthy To Be A Vegan.

I suggest "Peta's Vegan College Cookbook". They're all recipes on how to stay vegan in school, and the only thing you really need is a microwave. If you wanted to see if you're library had one, I suggest checking it out. If they don't have it, ask if you can inter-library loan it. Once you get it, show your mom that you won't just be eating salads all day.

okay so when me and my boyfriend dry hump i orgasm really quickly, then its like i wanna stop, but i feel bad cause i get him hard, then he gets blue balls right? do guys get blue balls everytime when they get hard and you don't let them cum? so is it mean of me to dry hump and not give him a hj/bj after?

and yes i'm one of those lucky few girls who orgasm fast by pretty much doing nothing lol

he won't get blue balls because he didn't finish that one time. most guys just say that they will so they can get some lovin' too.

hey ... so i am 14 & i just got my period and i DO NOT WANNA TELL MY MOM! but i only have enough pads and stuff to last me maybey 2 days and i am gonna have to tell her if i want to be able to buy more!?? sooo what do i do? because if i tell her she wil laugh and tell my sister. and if my sister finds out she will tell the WORLD !! sooo embarressing. and i also wanna know what am i supposed to do? am i supposed to wear a pad all day? change it? tampon vs. pad??? HELP PLEASE!

1. tell your mom. it's not that big of a deal and if she seems really excited about it, tell her you don't want her telling anyone.
2. pads are the way to go. they're safer to use for your first time. i usually use always - regular.
3. yes you wear the pad all day. change every few hours.
4. tampons are good when you're older. i suggest to only use them when you're swimming.


hope i helped!

I'm getting a treadmill in a few weeks, and I was just wondering, having never used one on a weekly basis, how much I should start of doing? And how much a week? Also, how long will I have to do before I see a change in my weight?

Thanks.

I normally do not like the treadmill. I feel that is a slow calorie - burner but I use it as a cool-down at the gym.

If you want to see a change in your weight, I suggest changing your pace every few minutes. Only about .5 for each change though.
EX. starting out at 3.0 for speed
speed up to 3.5 after two minutes
speed up to 4.0 after five minutes
slow down to 3.0 after five minutes
etc. etc.

I'm not sure if the treadmill you bought is similar to the one at the gym, but changing incline is helpful too.


The average person works out 5x a week.
And usually for about 30-40 minutes per workout.


You should start seeing results anywhere between 1 - 3 months.
That is, if you're just exercising and not changing your diet.


Hope I helped. :]

16/f. I am about 5'4", 150 lbs... My doctor told me I should be about 138. I would like to lose some weight on my arms and in my stomach and thighs..Are there any particular exercises that can help me with this? I have no access to a gym or weight lifting equipment. Please be kind of descriptive! Thanks!

Cardio is the name of the game.
Like the first person said, any type of exercises are good. Especially riding your bike! Go to the library and check out some old Seventeen magazines. They have great workout routines for target areas and are step-by-step. So fairly easy.
Crunches are good too. But aren't necessary right now. Focus more on cardio and you should be good.

Another huge HUGE factor for loosing weight is what you eat. Or at least, that's what I find a problem for my goal.

First, you should find out your BMR. A basic calculator:
Women: 661 + (4.38 x weight in pounds) + (4.33 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age) = BMR
THEN, find out how active you are and follow this calculator:

Sedentary = BMR X 1.2 (little or no exercise, desk job)
Lightly active = BMR X 1.375 (light exercise/sports 1-3 days/wk)
Mod. active = BMR X 1.55 (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/wk)
Very active = BMR X 1.725 (hard exercise/sports 6-7 days/wk)
Extr. active = BMR X 1.9 (hard daily exercise/sports & physical job or 2X day training, i.e marathon, contest etc.)


Your goal is to eat 500 LESS than what your BMR is. So let's say it's 2000. In order to loose weight, you should eat about 1500.
Remember though: don't drop calories right away. You need to gradually trim them so you won't be overwhelmed. Example. Start by eating 1800. Then 1700. Then 1500. Do it week by week.

And now you want to know what to eat. That one is easy. Best things to eat for weight loss are:

Non Fat Yogurt
Tuna
Lean Chicken
Lean Turkey
Green Tea
Oatmeal
Low-Fat String Cheese
Granola Bars
Veggies
Fruits (apples,pears, and grapefruit are a big fat-burner)
Peanut Butter
Whole-Wheat Bread
1% Milk
Basically anything that is healthy.

What I also find helpful is keeping a log of everything you're eating. Starting from day one. Keep a record of measurements, your goals, etc. You can put anything in it, really.


Good luck!
I hope I helped!

what does it mean if your period blood is brown?

it's usually dried.
and if it's completely normal.
you should only be worried if it's greenish - yellowish.

so lots of people have said i have cummed (squirted), but im not sure if i really have.. how do you know if you have? how can you tell? i'm a girl, and so i don't really know if i REALLY have cum. please feel free to give me some personal experiences so i can hopefully relate.

thanks..

girls don't have cum
but they produce a similar liquid.

and it happens when you have an orgasm.

Does anyone know of a really great romance novel that would make me cry?
Or even just a sad book that's somewhat of a tearjerker?

I love sad stories with no "neat" endings. Lol I know that sounds depressing but yeah, that's it.
Thanks!

"you don't know me" i don't remember the author though. it's really good.
other books-
identical by ellen hopkins
my sisters keeper by jodi picoult
living dead girl by elizabeth scott (i think thats the name)

If I'm not sexually active, can I just get the pill from my doctor without having to do a pap smear?
Also, if you start taking the pill, can you decide what week you have your period?
I'm interested in the pill because me period is quite irregular.

Thanks!

you can't decide when to get your period - but some can make it come once every three months. common ones just make them regular.

you don't need a pap smear either. just go to a planned parenthood and they can give it to you.

How can you tell when you're full? I am not overweight, but I tend to over-eat often. I'm sure my body gives me signals when I am full that I am just overlooking. How can I know when to stop eating?

eat slower.
chew 15 times each bite.
and try drinking a glass of cold water before eating.

hope i helped.

okay so i get out of school this friday and i want to start an exercise routine to get in shape over the summer and lose weight before i have field hockey tryouts at the end of august.

i am overweight, but not terribly, and im rocking a lot of curves. im not self conscience with my body or anything but id like to loose weight to be even more happier with myself.

so what are some really good exercises that help you loose weight and build muscle in your: arms, stomach, legs/thighs, and butt? so pretty much just everywhere actually. also what are good ways to get in relllllly good shape running wise?

oh and some healthy meals i could eat for all 3 meals of the day would be really great to know too.

thanks =]

get a gym membership at planet fitness or curves or any gym near you. if your under 18 you may need your mom to come with you to sign up/
swimming is also a good excersise. its easy and its fun!
biking is good As well. if your overweight - you can mkst liky loose that just by doing 30 minutes a day.

the best excersise to do is 20 minutes cardio - running, walking, biking, etc. then about 60 crunches.
if your looking for good toning excersises - try seventeen magazine. try your public library for past issues.

for food:
breakfast- oatmeal, banana, orange juice.
snack- yogurt
lunch- turkey wrap, milk
snack- apples w. peanut butter
dinner- anything healthy really. try 1/2 the plage full of vegetables. 1/4 of carbs (rice, bread, potatoes) 1/4 of protein (chicken, turkey, fish)
snack- watermelon

thats just a sample of course.
eat anywhere from 1500 - 2000 calores per day.
depends on your bmi.

but anyways. i think thats good for now - have any questions? feel free to ask me.

hope i helped!

I am 13 years old and I'm everybody says I have kankles. They say wow why are you so skinny and then you just have kankles. Also they say my calfs don't fit my body because I'm skinny and then my calfs are fat. I don't know why I have kankles when I skateboard everyday for like 3 hours or more and I go to the gym every day and I play basketball for an hour a day. So I don't understand why I have kankles and the rest of my body is skinny. Mabey it's just like a trait from my parents and I can't fix it. Please help.

if your physically active and are skinny everywhere else
your kankles are most likely muscles.

For Christmas i got an 8GB ipod touch. i think that hold around 2000 songs, or so? correct me if im wrong. But I was wondering if there was any way to like add more memory, so i could hold more songs. Is there? thanks!

I'm pretty sure there isn't a way.

8GB's is a lot of space anyway - and for a present that's pretty sweet.
Most people who want a big ass 80GB ipod always just end up using 4.5GB's of it. Unless you're adding a bunch of movies/tv seasons on it.
