How do i lose weight on my legs and not my other body parts? I will rate ya'll! (link)
i can't remeber what these are called... leg lifts or somethings.
Lay on your side, legs on top of each other, and raise the top one up and down (you'll have to do it a lot.... like 65 times or something) but when you bring your leg back down everytime, don't let it touch the other leg.... don't give it any rest.
then switch over to the other side and do that leg. when you can feel the "stinging pain of excersize" start doin it more slowly...
this is meant for excersizing your inner thighs.

My boyfriend has smoked cigarettes and gotten drunk just a few times. I hate it SO much! He's only 15 almost 16 years old, why in the hell does he need to smoke? It makes me mad but his friends tell me to get his nipple out of my mouth (referring that I'm a baby) and that he is old enough to do what he wants and its not bad... I'm just looking out for the love of my life! Do you really think I'm acting like an overprotective mom? (link)
no, you're not. you're doing the right thing. you can get as mad as you want about it, and there's nothing THEY can do about it. i think it's awesome that you're worried for him... it means that you really care about him and what he doing to his body. you are perfectly in line to be worried about him.

im 14 and well ppl always tells me im pretty...but yet no one likes me...i mean if im so pretty why doesn't n e one like me? i mean i don't get it...and i have friends...so it must mean im not awful or weird...i think im nice...plzz help! i just really really dont get it....so could you help me please!?


~Melissa (link)
alright. it's something that happens to everyone. for somepeople about 2 a day. and its called a crush. plenty of guys may have crushes on you... but you don't know. don't feel bad or anything.
in fact... if you're ever feeling up to it... tell YOUR crush how you feel about him, and see what he answers back! you may be surprised.

everytime I get a bf my friends think he's too ugly and that I need better, but it hurts him whenever i tell him what my friends think about him and makes me feel bad. I know how he feels because they dont know what hes like. I told them to stop but they keep at it. and my bf dosnt feel like doing any thing when im around bc of what my friends say. how do I get them to stop???? for me and him (link)
m'dear, this is a common thing, and it's called peer pressure. you shouldn't care a damn what your friends say about your boyfriend. in fact, go tell them right now that what they said is extremely rude. if you lke him, that's enough. it's totally their problem if they don't like him. guys don't have to be hot for you to date them. secondly, don't tell him what your friends say. if someone tells you you're ugly, that doesn't make you feel good, it just brings you down. same with him.
hang onto him. treat him like your best friend. don't let others bring him OR you down.
aka: it doesn't matter what he looks like. as long as you like him. and he likes you. that's all that matters.

Okay I'm 5'1 and my weight is 117!!!! Im not really sure if I'm fat. In my clothes I dont look fat n in my bikini I guess i dont either..I mean I dont look super skinny though either. I think I'm fat but my sister and bff say its mostly all muscle which may be true bc i am a dancer (Tap Jazz and Ballet) n I have been dancing for about 5 years. I dont think its muscle though...I really wish i was skinnier but my sister says it would look dumb bc i have a "BIG ASS!!!!" which guys like so its nice but i am REALLLLY insecure about my thighs and stomach..my bff says they look fine n they are all muscle but i still feel REALLLLLY fat...About a month ago i starved myself for 3 1/2 days n i lost 5 1/2 pounds! I would have kept going except my bff basically made me eat..I know that starving myself probably isnt tha best thing to do but its sooo easy and pretty fast. Im not sure what to do at all!! PlZzZ help!! Thanx xo0ox!! (link)
hey, at least your comfortable with wearing a bikini. hey, you're even comfortable wearing a bathing suit in general.
lots of people weigh a lot more than you, and they try really hard to lose weight. you don't need to lose it at all. 117 at 5"1 is fine. and being a dancer as you are, i'm sure it's all muscle... dancers do some pretty strenuous stuff.
another thing.... never ever ever starve yourself again! you wouldn't know where to stop, and you could get really sick! (take mary-kate olsen for example).
your sis and your bff are right. listen to them!
Your weight is fine for your height. you are NOT fat, and you don't need to lose anymore weight. if you are still worried about it though, just don't gain anymore. keep your weight constant, and you'll be perfectly fine. and if you are STILL worried, take a month and lose 3 lbs in it. 3lbs ONLY. by eating healthy foods and stuff.
hope i helped!

WOW! I use to think u were relaly cool UNTIL you decided to make that comment about no one likes cheerleaders they were 8th grade. Ya thats cool to say. I'm a cheerleader are u sayin no1 likes me or wait r u just to jealous because u were cut when u tryed out? Dont deny it sweetie I live near you. I can't believe how shallow u are to say that to someone. I have no idea what kind of cheerleaders ur use to but we do crazy stunts that are hard and we work harder then most sports do. So before u want to go and get everyones opinion on cheerleading DONT say non likes them JUST because you cant be one. Oh but thats ok cuz ur probably not goin to post this (link)
heyheyhey... settle down... i have no idea who said that, but i've gotta admit, it is pretty shallow.
can i explain something?
most of the kids who get picked on are picked on my cheerleaders, or other people i like to call "too popular" "the beautiful people" or even in some cases "stuck up" EVEN THOUGH THAT DOES NOT PERTAIN TO EVERYONE WHO IS A CHEERLEADER!!!
if you do competetive cheerleading, than go you! i love watching that (mostly because i could never do any of it) and it's pretty awesome.
but the only side line cheerleaders i've seen are the ones who say "gimme an A!" but that's just with my school. yours can be much different than mine (and it probably is by the sound of it). keep going with your cheerleading because, you are right, it gives more a workout than tons of other sports, and even side line cheerleaders can do stuff i'm not even allowed to think about doing myself.
keep going with it, make friends, and have fun!

Is there any way to get ride of a pimple FAST???
HURRY I NEED TO GET RIDE OF IT BEFORE FRIDAY!!! (link)
no. 1. DON'T TOUCH IT.... EVER!! if you don't touch your zits, they heal faster because you're not getting extra skin oils on it.
no. 2. if you want to get rid of it fast, wash it about 5 times a minute... okay... not that much, but you get my point. wash it a lot. and jsut use regular soap. it works great.
no. 3. put antibacterial suave stuff on it. sounds gross, but it works for me.

okay so ive liked this boy for the longest time and now he told me that he likes me back and he says that he wants to have sex with me but im scared cuz it will b my very first time and i don't knoe if i want to loose that respect for myself this early in my life im only 13. and this boy is kinda a player but ive liked him for a long time and now that i knoe he likes me back i don't want to do n e thing that will ruin this. please help me
(link)
even if you like him a lot, you probably shouldn't have sex yet. you said he just told you he liked you... and then he asked for sex right away? you guys should get to know each other first. if you're even in a little bit of question about losing your virginity, DON'T DO IT! you have the rest of your life ahead of you.
but then, it is your choice. you have to do what you think is best.

Hey This is really embarresing to say but Im a girl and I mean I think Im bi but Im not sure one time me and my friend thought we should show our bodys off a little to eachother and after I was done She satrted and I started to get horny and sweaty and I just wanted to like fuck something right then so I went into the bathroom and started fingering myself and my friend knows that I finger myself a lot but anyways she walked in on me and she saw that I was fingering myself and she was like why are you doing that right now? And So I stop and pulled my pants up and started to cry and told her the story and said oh and I think shes discusted...:/ Also another time I started to get horny (i do a lot kinda) I told her I was getting horny and she was like oh i see and I was like would you do me a favor and she said it depends and I said get your dildo and stick it up there for me because i really needed it right then but she wouldnt /: So yeah it was embarresing I really just wish one of my friends were either bi or a lezbo because I really need someone to be able to do stuff with! When I see pictures of nude guys i just say cool but when I see a girls thats when I start actually looking good! I REALLY NEED HELP OR TIPS ON ANYTHING! PLEASE HELP ME! );I WILL RATE YOU (link)
yeah, you are homosexual, but there's nothing wrong with that. if your friend can't understand that, she's just one of the quadrillion people who don't.
there aren't really any tips i can give you. you are actually handling it just fine. you're finding out about your sexuality, and now you know.
your friend might ditch you because of it, but there are plenty of people who don't care whether or not you're homosexual... find them, and hold onto them. you'll be more comfortable with them than anyone else in the world.
it's your choice if you want to be open about it, or not tell anyone. you're more likely to find more lesbians if you're open about it, but again, that's totally your choice.
And i don't know if you've told your parents. but they should be some of the first people to know. they can help you through this, and make you more comfortable with it.
hope i helped, and if you need anymore just drop a question in my inbox.

I really, I mean really like this guy.He is my age and he is 1 of my bro's friend's brother.He goes to school with me.The last few weeks of school me and him were becoming really close.Im scared that next year he won't remember me remember me anymore.What can I do? (link)
if you say that he and you were getting really close... there's not a very big chance that he'll forget you. and you have to do stuff! grab some friends and invite him to come too... just do the regular stuff (movie, and playing sports helps a lot i've found) not like a date... but with some other people. he won't forget you, though.
do something before the end of the summer!

does ne body know if laughing actually works out your abs? and if ne body knows some good work outs to get your stomach more toned just stuff you can do around the house without a full on workout please tell me! thanks much.. (link)
one of the best things for toning abs is situps. yeah, they suck, and you've been doing them for your whole life, but they work... really... but you gotta do a lot of them.
another thing it pilates. try putting your hands behind your head and raising unbeant legs about 6 inches from the floor for 15 seconds... do this about 5 times...
one other thing that really works int the biycilce thing. lay on your back and pretned your riding a bike.

So I've always been attracted to other gitls.I don't think guys are attractive at all.I have had ex b/fs and stuff but I think girls are hot not guys.Does this mean I'm a lesbian?Do you think its wrong? (link)
it matters how old you are... if you're in high school, you probably are a lesbian, but if you're in middle school, then it's probably just a phase or something.
lots of people are against lesbianism. (mostly religious folks... nothing against religion, though) but unless you were born with this feeling, it was kind of your choice to be atttracted to girls. and if you don't have a problem with it, than don't let anyone tell you different. this is your life, and you only get to live it once.
so basically, homosexuality is wrong if you believe it's wrong. just be comfortable with the way you are.

I broke up w/my b/f of 8 months almost a year ago. He was heartbroken at first, but then got over it and now is going out with another girl. I haven't found anyone who's like him, and I miss him so much. But he's over me, and I still need him. Help!!
~Kat (link)
that's not a very good reason to break up. you guys would have gotten over the shy stage in time.
if you really still do like him, you gotta tell him. he's never gonna know you still like him if you don't tell him. if you're kinda nervous, the best placce to tell him is online... but hey, it's your choice.
if he won't have you back though, you just have to leave it at that. it might have taken a while for him to get over you, and then you're all the sudden saying you like him... he might not be too willing to take you back after you hurt him.
but really, just tell him. see what happens. maybe nothing. maybe he'll break up w/his other gf... you'll never know unless you tell him.

I have medium-long super straight blonde hair. i was going to go super hippie and grow it out to my butt, but lately i have been wanting to cut it really short.. any opinions? (link)
well, it's your choice. you can do more with it if your hair is longer, but i'm sure it would look totally cute short... but don't cut it too short in case you don't like it...
most of the people i talk to regret cutting their hair too short, but if you really want to...
i think you should get your hair layered right now and see what you can do with that.

Whats the average weight if your 5`1 - 5`2 ish. (link)
it matter how old you are, really. if you've been the same height for a couple years, or even just one year, you'll probably be over the average (which is perfectly normal) and if you've just had a growth spurt, you'll most likely be underweight. but the average is around 110 to 135lbs...

How do u get rid of Acne scars?? (link)
have you tried different lotions? there are some that are specially made for getting rid of zit scars... but i'm not really sure what they're called, so you may want to look them up. you can go to a local beauty salon, or ask an avon lady if they have anything, or know of something you can use. i'm pretty sure they sell some at larger pharmacys and grocery stores, you'll probably have to look by the shampoos, bady washes, and lotions.

hey does any1 kno how to get your own website?!?!??!
bunches of thanx,
*ME* (link)
you can buy software that has webpage design ( you can go to best buy and ask them what software has that on it) or you can go somewhere online.
geocities.com
livejournal.com and xanga.com are like journal things, but it's still your own website, or you can even find places that'll host you like councilofelroind.com if you like lotr or something. the;yre everywhere. you can also just go to goolge.com and type in "free website hosting" and i'm sure you'll find something you like.
