I`m generally a good distance runner, except I went to the doctor a couple of months ago & they told me I had exercise induced asthma. The doctor also said that if you get in really good shape (runng alot, etc), it`ll eventually go away. I can`t just randomly go outside & run three miles or I`ll have another asthma attack, so I need a good routine that`ll help me work up to it. I`m doing cross country starting in two months, so any tips on how to prepare/train for it? (link)
Start running a little and then go up every two days.
Or jump roping helps tooo


Ok I live where all the girls are major sluts and the guys are sex fiends and I've never even kissed a guy [[I mean I have kissed on the mouth but not french or anything]] and a guy I really liked is getting into me and he wants to makeout with me but I gave him an excuse because he's REALLY experienced with girls. I want to makeout with a guy and everything but not him, I dont want look stupid or anything so I already know I'm NOT [[I wont change my mind]] going to but I dont have anybody else who will help me!!! My sister wants to get someone to help me but there is no use for her with all the people she knows, anyway I dont know if you know what Im talking about but I would appreciate your advice!!!

That same thing happened to me. I always made up excuses. But then this guy i've been dating kissed me and then it turned into a make out i just went with the flow, and if hes nice he wont tell you your stupid and dont know how to kiss he might just keeping kissing you and u'll learn theres a first time for eveything.


I am trying to decide between a few things here.
I love people.
Helping People.
Health Carrers.
Fasion Disign
Drawing
Writting.
Any way to find a good job out of all of that?
Sorry if this is dumb. But i am really confused.
Thanks... (link)
How about something like a doctor. and on the side you can write books and design things as a hobby then sell them.


girls are so complicated cuz when i try to do somethin they always complain and whenever they are sick ill talk to them all night but they say i didnt talk long enough? and whenever they misss me i do whatever i can to get to them but they say i didnt try hard enough even though i got there and i even brought flowers a chocalate? sometimes i dont get girls or should i say some girls?

what should i do? (link)
Yeah say some girls. I love it when guys come see me when i miss them and if the bring some flowers and chocolate its a huge plus. So those girls that did that to you where probably testing you or they are wayyy too high maintence(sp).
DOnt change your ways at all, if a girl acts like that ur better off without her.


whats the easiest way to toning your arms i have flabby arms but im a skinny peron so it makes me look kind of fat i really need to look good with thin arms in 1 motnh or ASAP can you help me pleaaaaeeee? i beg you (link)
I have that problem too. All i can tell you is you can lift weights but, its bad to do until ur older and stop growing because it may end up causing problems.


right now my hair is long. its straight and its a couple inches past my boobs. i have layers but they are really long ones and you can barely tell. i need a new style but i dont want it short. i want layers. any ideas? pictures would be great (link)
how about more shorter lyers like overall u can keep it long just do more layers like startin from your chin or do some long bangs and layer it from that point

k well i got my period for the first time wednesday morning. then i didn't get it the rest of the day. or yesterday. or today. how come i only got it once? is that normal? when should it come again?

(link)
That is perfectly normal in the beginning you wont get it everymonth its irregular. And it may change soon or take a few years. Alotta times it will surprise you so always be prepared. And if your narmally regular and its a couple days late or whatever as long as ur not having sex then it will come soon.


To say the least, I want to look good for this school year. I have breakouts on my face including acne scars (i used to be a big zit picker XP) and im getting my brows waxed. I don't need too much help with my hair, I think its ok. (I'm getting it trimmed before school starts) I'm a normal weight, and I think I lost a few pounds. So that is ok. Umm, actually the only thing i need help with is my acne! I have braces, but I can't do anything about that... :( so yeah. thanks in advance guys! (o btw, i use st.ives apricot scrub, and then i use benzaclin which is a prescription acne medication. i use it regularly, and im seeing SOME results, but not much.... if anyone has any suggestions, they will be needed! (link)
I use Proactive but i wouldnt recommend it to you its really not that great. U should use the Clearasil that in my opinion is the best face soap i've ever had.


Any of the clearasil like some are made to help speific things.

I just got clean n clear and its also good soo far.


So at camp this past week this guy was like asking all these girls to be his gf and to give him blow jobs and stuff, and he kept on saying that he wanted to be alone w/ me, and whenever we were he'd be like "oo i think ur so hot let's get freaky!" then i'd be like "ok let's do it!" adn he'd be like "haha ur stupid." like he would get my hopes up and then just yank away the opportunity. What kind of a mental problem does this sound like to you? (meaning him)

it made me feel even worse about myself. I'm crying as i write this. I can't seem to get over this, it's like i'm taking it personally like he didn't want me just because of my appearance or w/e even though he already said i was hot.


:(

help.
(link)
To me he sounds like a pervert and probably didnt think u would do anything and when u where willing to he changed his mind, your better thatn that just get over him.


k so theres this guy who i messed wround with before but i didnt go all the way with him. and he is an asshole..and he calls me a slut.. what can i say to a guy when they call me a slut?? cuz i never know what to say (link)

im 14, female. 160lbs, 5'5ish. I hate my body...

i eat as healthily as i can and i do 60 crunches every day and i even do pilates but im not losing ANY weight. what is a good (cheap) diet plan and a good (free) workout that will help me get in shape? (link)
go up on your crunches and you may not be douin them right so try sit ups on a big ball. try sum other workouts like running, squats, leg lifts, or when your just sitting or standing flex ur abs, n buttocks as much as possible. also laughing helps burn calories so laughing may help.

ps. i hate using eyelash curlers, so keep that in mind. (link)
Use eyelash curlers. Before u use them get them warm eith a hair dryer it really works.


why do people straighten naturally straight hair?

& what's the best flat iron for that purpose?

ok. i have wavy hair but not curly. i want the whole bedhead natural look. i got the makeup portion down, but i need help on the hair. what are some tips to gettin bedhead hair but not making it look greasy with all the gel and everything. i just want a very natural curly hair look. you know? anyone have any tips?? (link)
I like these hair dos and i get compliments.
When ur hair is wet towel dry it an then put sum volumizing moose in it style it and shake it and scrunch it up in your hands. when u got it how you want it hairspray it.
if you dont like it crunchy and wet looking straighten it and then sum wat tease it near the roots.
or even curl it before you go to sleep then wake up an touch it up.

i would say ask a hairstylist what is the baet anti dandraff, and get it. but instead of using it every day use it every other day or only a couple times a week.


Is it okay if I can feel my tampon? I tried to push it in farther but it wouldnt go any more.

It's not painful, i can just tell that i have it in. (link)
