ok well..im 11 yeears old, and like.. im 115lb. and im 5'2 and i abouslty hate it. People say im fat, behind my back..and im always hungry ..and i try to eat healthy but i still gain weight ..help?
First of all, you shouldnt care about what people think. Its ok if you gain weight because youre still growing. Its more about how you look, and feel about yourself. Try eating less. You can still eat your favorite foods, just try to cut your portions in half. Try to keep yourself occupied. If youre busy, you wont eat. Maybe sleep in a little, clean your room, go out with your friends, help your mom around the house, just keep yourself busy. Do between 100 and 200 crunches day. It doesnt have to be all at the same time, but try to reach your goal by the end of the day. Every few days, increase your goal. Try going for a jog in the morning. If youre eating something, say ice cream, and you start to feel full, stop eating. To make sure you dont eat it, sprinkle pepper on it so you wont want it. Also, dont eat right before bed. When you sleep, you dont burn carbs or calories. Drink water with your meals and snacks. Water fills you up and will curb your appetite. Drinking soda also wont help. You can still drink it, just dont drink it as much, and if you do drink it, try to go for diet soda. I hope I helped. I lost 11 pounds by doing all these things. Just worry about how you feel about yourself and dont let people comments bother you. Stay confident, and dont give up! Good luck!

is it normal to get a cold in the summer? because i think i have one i have a really soar throat and my nose is sooo stuffy! also what can i do to help get my nose unstuffed?
Its completely normal to get a cold in the summer. Its happened to me before. Listerine Strips helped unstuff my nose. If you stay couped up on the couch all day with a blanket and hot chocolate, then you will feel worse. Pretend youre not stuffed up or have a sore throat and normally go about your day. Youll feel better in a few days. Good luck!

i need help going on a diet and losing weight.
ive tried everything! lol
i excersize, go to gyms..dance..swim..a bunch of stuff..n it hasnt seem to work.
does anyone know a good diets/excersize plans that can help?
I recently lost about 11 pounds. I went from 141 to 130 and im a 14/f. What I did was eat less. When I did eat, I downsized the portions. I did about 300 crunches a day. Its not bad and you feel so good after. When youre eating, drink water with it. Water fills you up. If youre the type of person that finishes food even if you're too full, then this will help. If youre eating say a bowl of ice cream and you feel full but want to finish it, sprinkle some pepper on it, or pour some barbacue sauce in it. It will stop you from eating it. Try going for jogs early in the morning. A few miles a day, some crunches, less eating, and better food will go a long way even though its hard. I never thought I could lose weight but after a while I started seeing a difference. Im still losing weight and I feel a lot better about myself. Even though you may not see a big difference, other people will. I didnt think my stomach looked any smaller but then people started complimenting me on how much smaller I looked and it motivated me ever more. Just dont give up and I promise youll do great. Good luck, and I hope I helped.

I want to plant nice flowers in my backyard does anyone know some mystical flowers i can plant im really spirtual and plant like.
Go to google.com and search for "mystical plants". Im sure there are plenty of websites that would name some. When you find some, try to think of a color scheme. Pick a few colors and you can build an entire garden revolving around those colors. Hope I helped. Good luck!

I need advice on how to make cleaning my room fun... it's so boring and i just hate doing it. My room is large, and there is stuff all over it. Any ideas to make cleaning it more fun? and maybe easier? Thanks very much! I'll rate good ideas!
Think about how awesome your room would look if it was clean and organized. Make lists of places you want to put things, or draw a picture of a new way to arrange your furniture. When youre satisfied, start cleaning. Start early in the morning so you have the whole day if you need it. When youre finished, youll be so happy that you wont want to leave your room. Try to keep things in their place, and when you notice it getting a little messy, clean it. If you make it a point to pick up your room every week or so, it will stay clean. Listening to music really helps as well. It keeps you in a good mood. It makes the time go by faster too. Before you know it, youll be done cleaning. Then youll be free to just relax and listen to the music. I hope I helped. Good luck!

I'm 13 and i'm looking for a way to earn some cash, and babysitting seems the best way, trouble is i dont really know anyone i could babysit! does anyone have any ideas on how i could find some customers??
Does your town have its own website? What I did was go to my towns website and go to "classifieds". It was pages upon pages of poeple in my town looking for help for various reasons. I found an ad for a man who needed a babysitter. I emailed him and he called me a few days later. My towns website also has an "announcements" page. I posted an ad there basically stating my age, and that I was looking for anyone in need of a babysitter. Leave your email address and phone number. Tell when youre available and if you have any experience. If you dont mind pets, add that since many people have pets and would like a babysitter who is comfortable around them. You could also ask your parents if they have any friends who have children that could use a babysitter. Let them know youre available, even if they only need you occasionally on a saturday night. I hope I helped. Good luck!

Ok, I'm 17/f and I just had a baby. He's 3 weeks now and I'm having a hard time supporting him. His dad won't do anything. He says that he's not sure if it's even his which is a completely false because I gave my virginity to him. He said he won't pay a time until he knows that it's his so he wants a paternity test. So I arranged for the test and he never showed up. He gave me a bogus excuse but I said fine and scheduled another one. We've gone through this process 5 times and he still won't help me or even get the test done. I dropped out of school and I'm working 2 jobs to try and support him because I have no family to help me. My best friend has been an angel she's been taking him to the school and putting him in the day care center so that I can work. She's also been watching him after school for me. I've tried paying her but she refuses the money. She's only one that I have helping me. I need his help. I just don't have enough money. I don't want to put her in foster care because I grew up in different foster homes and I refuse to put her threw that. I think that things would be fine if I could just get him to pay even a little child support. How do I go about taking him to court for child support? Do I need to hire a lawyer for this or can I do it on my own? If he needs to have a paternity test done is there anyway that I can make sure that he will actually show up?? Please help me I'm really confused. I will rate 5's to anyone who tries.
I cant imagine how stressful this situation is for you. I would suggest going to the school you dropped out of and asking a former teacher. It may be awkward, but I dont think they would refuse to help. If not, maybe you could talk to the dad's parents? Let them know whats going on, tell them of your sacrifices, and let them know that you need the money to supposed your son. If theyre on your side, they will hopefully talk to their son and get him to do the right thing. Im not sure if theres a way you can force him to pay child support without taking him to court. With a serious matter like this, I would say that taking him to court would be the best decision. Go to a law agency and tell them about your situation. Tell them you need a lawyer to get you the child support you deserve, but that money is tight. If not, maybe you could turn to your friend and find out if her parents have a lawyer that would represent you. I wish you the best, and hope everything turns out okay. Good luck and God bless you and your son.

Anyone here have an easy recipe for fudge without nuts??????????/
If you have a jar of Fluff you can look on the side for "Never Fail Fudge" The recipe may contain nuts but you can exclude them. If you dont have fluff, you can try googling "simple fudge recipes" and then if they have nuts, you can just ignore them. I hope I helped. Good luck!

does anyone have any ideas about what to name my puppy? hes a black lab and hes so cuddly, and hea boy...and fluffy..i rate high!thnx bub byez
Name him something cute. Dont make it something that people will make fun of you for. You want to be proud of your puppy's name. If you want something kind of goofy you could name him Buttons. Something cute, you could name him Baby. If youre into sports you can name him something to do with your favorite team. Im from New England and my cousin named her dog Brady for Tom Brady on the Patriots. Im not very good with names, but I hope this gives you an idea. Good luck with your puppy, my mom wont let me have one. :(

i left my fav shirt at my friends house and the next time i came over i saw it and i asked where she found it.....she said that her grandma bought it for her for her bday....which was a huge lie...they dont sell that model anymore its old.....i want it back but i dont want to hurt her feeling what should i do???
signed concerned girl
i rate high
Ive been in the exact same situation as you. Same excuse too "My grandma bought it for me." Thats exactly what my friend said to me. I know what you mean about not wanting to hurt her feelings. Of course you wont want to acuse her of stealing but you have to. This happened to me with the same person on several occasions. If you see it in her room then make sure shes looking and just pick it up and like fold it and just hang on to it. If she asks what youre doing, just say "Oh, its mine. Remember I let you borrow it? You must have forgetten to give it back so Im just gonna bring it home. Ive been wanting to wear it for a while." If she refuses, just tell her that its definitely yours. Say, this is too old a model for your grandma to have bought it for you recently. I dont want to acuse you of stealing it, or keeping it from me, but I know its mine. Then walk out, and go home. Dont let her get it from you. Unfortunately, in my case, I didnt get the shirt back. She had stolen it out of my house. When i confronter her about it, I asked to see the reciept because she said she had it. A week later she was like "I cant find the receipt." So we just ended up being in a fight for a long time. Im sorry about your shirt and I hope you get it back. If its yours, then you deserve to have it and not worry about your friend never giving it back. Just dont let her borrow your clothes anymore. If what I said doesnt work, then have your mom talk to her mom. You should be able to work it out and get it back. Good luck!

well im 14 and my parents got divorced a few years ago and my dad married this person i hate! she is seriously like the wicked step mother and it blows. She always talks bad about my mom too and my mom is the sweetest person in the world. How can i tell her to shut the hell up without getting grounded forever. help! P.S. sorry its so long!
Youre right, that does blow. First off, im sorry this is going on, and I'll do my best to help. I can think of two options. Either be an angel, or a devil. If youre gonna do the sweet little angel act, then just be nice to her and talk about how sweet your mother is. Tell about how hard the divorce and remarriage has been, but that you like her and are glad shes part of the family. Or, if you want to basically try to drive her away from your dad and you, then you can still talk about how sweet your mother is, and how happy your parents were when they first married. Basically just talk about how amazing life was before she came along. Eventually, she'll get sick of all the talk about your dad and mom and will probably snap. Then, your dad will see what a bitch she is, and maybe take action himself. Im sorry if these things dont work. I suggest you start with the angel act and if it doesnt work then switch to being a devil. Another thing you could do is tell your dad how much you like her and arrange a girls day with just you and her. Since your dad wont be there, you can talk to her one on one and tell her about the effect shes having on you. Again, be nice at first but if she doesnt soften up then you have to stand up for yourself and just tell her off. If she grounds you, then oh well. But before you go back home, get your point across no matter how nasty you are. At least then youll get the point across that you dont like her and dont want her to take part in your family. Maybe then she'll stay away from you and things will get better for you. I hope this helps, let me know. Good luck!

Well let me start from the very begining. I have a sister who is older then me and she was very shy and didnt have alot of friends growing up especialy no guy friends! Well I am different and I have more guy friends then I do girls! My parents are really picky though and they dont want me to like hang out with guys especialy if its one on one. They say they cant trust me and that I wear to much make up. Well I dont wear to much and If I didnt wear makeup I wouldnt go out! because I am very self concious. Also I like guys and how the heck and I suposed to have a relationship if my parents wont let me! I mean im 14 Im going into highschool and obviously I want to date! I feel like sense my sister wasnt like me they are being way to hard on me! I mean all my friends get to hang out with guys even if parents arent home! I mean I know thats not acceptable and I wouldnt do that I always make sure parents will be there! but it seems like thats not good enough for my parents! PLEASE HELP ME! I DONT LIKE MY PARENTS THIS WAY!
Your parents are probably just going through a faze. Every parent tried to hold on to their child as long as they can. To them, youre growing up too quickly, and to them, its scary because youre not their little girl anymore. I would suggest showing them that wearing makeup wont change your behavior or attitude. If you show them that youre responsible and that youre old enough to take care of yourself around guys, then I think they will eventually loosen up to the idea. They know deep down that they cant protect you forever, but of course theyre going to try. Just show them how grown up you are, and they may get used to the idea of letting you be around guys. They know that one day youre gonna have a steady boyfriend and eventually get married. They just dont want it to happen to quickly. Since youre 14, you have nothing to worry about in that area. Just show them you can take care of yourself and can handle being around guys. Theyll come to their senses. Hope I helped.

I need a few EXCELLENT pranks to pull on a group of around 6 or 7 girls. My friend and I are doing them together on the rest of the group. We would like to have a prank to scare them, but any type of prank would be alright.
Thank ya!
P.S.---we can't be too harsh!
Ok I know you said you dont want to be too harsh, but I pull a lot of pranks and some are kind of..colorful, if you know what I mean. Get them to watch The Ring and make sure they have some kind of phone with them. Tell them you have to go to the bathroom and use another phone to call them (Use *67 so the number is blocked.) When they answer, of course, say "Seven Days." I did this to my cousin and freaked her out. I cant think of any more but if something comes to mind, I'll comment. Hope this works!

i usually dont have confidence issues like this, but i needed some help, lol.
i`m going to a new high school this year, with mostly new kids. i want to try out for the football cheerleading squad. tryouts are in late july. anyway, i don`t know why, but i`m having confidence issues about it. i`m not sure what they expect of us, i`m afraid i`ll screw it all up, and i`m afraid i`m going to embarrass myself since i haven`t done cheerleading in such a long time. should i just go for it, or forget it?
i`m also shy to tell my family and friends that I want to do it and i don`t know why because really looking at it its not a big deal. i can dance and stuff, but like i said i don`t know what they expect. ugh, can someone give me some guidance?
Hey girl. Im a cheerleader myself. What my coach looks for it determination. She gets upset whenever she hears "I cant do it." For cheerleading, it helps when youre loud, willing, determined, and somewhat hyper. It will definitely help if you can do cartwheels, round-offs, and things like that. A back handspring would be great, but if you cant do one, then you should be willing to try it. It isnt all about being in shape, and being a skinny little blonde. Strength is great too because stunting is a huge part of cheerleading. If youre small enough to be a flyer, then it helps if youre not scared of heights or anything. If youve had any experience with dance or cheering, then thats gonna help you a lot. I hope I helped, and if you have any more questions about anything, cheerleading too, then just drop one in my inbox. Good luck! Definitely go to try-outs, and try your hardest. Have confidence in yourself, and youll do great.

I love my boyfriend SOOOOO much! i wod do ANYTHING for him! today he went to juvi... he'll b there for 30 days! its 8:30p.m and i havent stopped crying since 11 o'clock last night! i cant sleep and i cant get him outta my head... i have a past with getting depressed VERY easily and i dont want that to happen. i no 30 days doesnt seem like a lot but im VERY clingy and kind of a cry baby wen it caomes to him. i really need to pull myself together and get out of the house but i just cant bring myself to get up! i feel so alone and sad but at the same time mad at him for leaving me like this! all last night i was in his arms crying and i wod do ANYTHING to get him bak and just to hold him one last time til he comes bak! everyone cinseders me as a strong person but i feel like i cant survive without him! hes my love, my life, my everything! and i dont no wot the hell im gonna do for the next months! im an emotional reck and my parents r getting really worried about me! im usually the one giving ppl advice but i cant figure out wot the hell im gonna do! please help!
Hey, the first thing you need to realize is that it isnt your fault that he went to juvi. He did something wrong and now he has to deal with the consiquences. I think the first thing you should do is write him a letter telling him how you feel about the whole thing. Then you should call up some of your friends and just get out of the house. I know its hard to force yourself to do something when you feel like shit, but you have to pull through for yourself to make yourself feel better. As soon as youre out with some friends, youll probably forget about him for a little while at least. For now, just try not to think about it, and try to get out of the house and occupy yourself. I hope I helped hun, just leave one in my inbox if you need anything else.

I am 115 lbs and 5'5'' i would like to loose 10 lbs as soon as possible without anorexia or bulimia. i hardly have anytime to go to the gym. please give me advice on how to accomplish my goal.
Hunny if youre 5'5" and youre 115, you dont need to lose anything. If you really want to, which I dont suggest, then you can eat several small portioned meals per day and try not to exceed 2,000 calories. I myself am trying to lose sounds weight and ive found that doing at least 100 crunches daily and jogging about 2 miles each day helps a ton. Try to stay away from soda and anything high in sugar. Low fat iced tea is good, but water is always best. I hope i helped, let me know how it turns out. If you dont end up losing anything, dont sweat it, you sound very healthy to me. good luck!

how do I get chuncks of black eyeliner out my BRAND NEW beige carpet? its like smeared in my carpet... in 3 spots, and ive already made it worse! help
Hey! I've done it a million times only my carpet was white. Umm, if you have any kind of stain remover that might work. Ive used toothpaste (white) that worked once, and even white/beige eyeshadow or makeup of any kind. Weird, I know but it worked for me! Do you have a little decorative rug in your mom that you could put over it? That also helps. I hope one of those things helps you. let me know how it worked out. Good luck!
