♥[?]♥ I'm not fat but I would feel much better about myself and more confident if I was skinnier, what are some good ways to lose weight, i'm already in soccer and bearly eating anything, but i'm not losing weight.
Neglecting to eat is NOT the way to go about this. Do you know how much damage that will do to your body? There are better routes to take, trust me. If you honestly feel like you're in trouble with this, I think you should bring it up with a trusted adult. Anorexia Nervosa is not something to toy around with. It's a serious and fatal condition.
I'll include a link on some of the damage that can be done to the body as a result of malnutrition. Hopefully this will scare you straight:

Now, if you're willing to take the healthy approach at this weight loss thing, we'll start out with the obvious: exercise.
A few good activities that can simply assist in porportioning the body in it's ENTIRTY would be anything that gets the blood circulation goin', such as: jogging, jumping jacks, jumping rope, walking, and bicycle riding. Also, if you have access to a heated pool, water aerobics work like a charm!!
And if you'd like to target your tummie specifically, try doing a couple hundred sit ups or crunches. I know, I know, I know.. "a couple hundred' SEEMS like a lot, but if you break it up into sessions, it's not that difficult, really.
For directions on doing a correct crunch, check out:

To tone your butt and thighs, do leg lifts. To do these, stand up straight, and slowly move your leg -ONLY YOUR LEG- backwards. Like, say you're going to kick something, but kick BARKWARDS, and DON'T BEND YOUR KNEES!! Make sense???
To tone your arms, take two dum bells [whatever weight works for you]. Put one in each arm, and stand up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart. Bring the dum bells up to your chest with your elbows folded out [like Tarzan pounding his chest-sort of motion, ya know?] Then at a MEDIUM speed... extend your arms out to the side, and slowly bring them back in. You can do two at a time to help balance the strength build up and toning, or do one at a time if it's easier. THIS DOES CUH-RRRRAZZIIEEEEEEE AMOUNTS OF MIRCALE!!!!!!!!!! If you do it for at least 20 minutes a day you'll see a GIGANTIC difference in a week, TOPS. I do them all the time; it's fun!!
Also, providing you cut out the EXTREMELY unhealthy foods, such as WHITE bread [substitute it with wheat], cake products, ice cream, hamburgers, and soda... [if you're used to consuming A LOT of it] you can see a significant amount of weight loss after the first two weeks, alone.
You can find lists of healthy foods at:
-- http://www.fit4free.org/healthy%20foods%20list.htm
-- http://www.whfoods.com/foodstoc.php
-- http://bellaonline.com/articles/art1862.asp
As you probably already know, it's best to eat several small portions a day; but this does not mean to "starve" yourself. Say, have an apple and a piece of cheese, two hours later have a few crakers, and an hour later have one piece of wheat toast, and so on and so forth, ya know??? And those are just some snack ideas. When it comes to solid meals, you don't really have to cut out much. Just take in moderation. Little intakes of food like that gives your body time to digest it properly. You see how that's better than eating one or two huge meals a day?? Because then it would take too long to catch up, and your bodyy will not be able to burn the calories quickly enough; so it just quits, adding body fat.
Of course you must realize that weight loss takes time. I can't really say how long it will take; I suppose that differs from person to person. It really just depends on how much weight you're looking to shed. I'd say you could lose 10 to 20 pounds within the first month; that's very possible (seeing as how a good portion of that 10-20 pounds will be water weight).
You just have to stay committed, and strive to keep up the drive. Some tips: just try to keep yourself busy, and sleep as often as possible. Those things keep your mind off of food.
Sure it seems like you're giving up so much, but think about what you will be gaining if you feel better about yourself?? That's the best damned grand prize you'll EVER find.
Goodluck to you! Feel free to get ahold of me personally if you'd like any other information or opinions! I'd be happie to help where I can! :D

I know what you're talking about. And they're simply called "icons". You might hear them specifically titled "Live Journal Icons", because http://www.livejournal.com is where they first started. But now, they're all over Xanga, MySpace, Advicenators, and beyond. And as far finding them, check out:

♥[?]♥ I was invited over to my friends place one night to play a card game with her and another friend that is married.
We started playing the game and joking around, and then I mentioned that my ex boyfriend was trying to get back together with me.
I was laughing about it because my ex is such a loser. Everyone else was laughing too except for the married guy. When I looked at his face he got this really angry, jealous expression and didnt laugh at all.
Does this mean that he might like me as more than a friend? He's married so I was a little suprised by his reaction.
I rate high, if you answer my question I promise I'll give a 5.
Thankyou
Wow. Well, perhaps he's ironicly friends/aquatiance of his... Sorrie, but that's all I can honestly think of. It's a very odd situation. Maybe you'd want to ask his wife if she noticed his behavior.. :)
♥[?]♥ My g/f and i broke up a while back but I don't know what i did...we were only going out for two days and she said that she was scared that we wouldn't be friends if we broke up. The next day she had another b/f.....what did I do? Are there any suggestions on how to impress a girl...plz?
Aw. =/ Well if she was with someone else the next day, then the break up obviously doesn't lay on your shoulders. You just got caught up in the web of an infantile, adolescent girl who not only holds no grasp of reality and meaningful relationships, but fails to consider the feelings of others, also.

♥[?]♥ *15 female*
My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and like 2 weeks. I care for him a lot, but i'm such a jealous girlfriend and I can't help it.I mean I get jealous even when he says jlo is hot or someone else famous. I don't like when he hangs out with other girl unless i'm there to. I feel this is wrong of me. I trust him with all my heart but sometimes i just can't help it to be jealous. any advice?
Thanks in advance

♥[?]♥ okay well i have long, thick blonde hair.. and in the shower it comes out REALLY EASiLY.. and a lot. like seriously ... a bunch of hair. idunno.. so .. does anybody know any shampoo && condishiner(sp?) that prevents this.. right now i use Tressime.. ((im 13/f if it helps any))
Honestly, until I tried Garneir Fractis I used to have about the same problem you do. Not anymore though; it worked wonders for me. :)
♥[?]♥ Ok so this morning I shaved my legs and i had goosebumps so i kind of messed up my legs REALLY bad and they hurt like crazy. Plus they are all red and bumpy. How can I get rid of this AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. And does anyone have any tips on how to prevent this in the future?
And what is the best razor out there ( i have extremely sensitive skin) and shaving cream.
Ooooh, the dreaded razor burn. How awful, we all hate it. I've taken it upon myself to make a list of tips for you:
- NEVER dry shave.
- Find a shaving cream/gel you're happie with.
- If you can't go out and purchase shaving gel, use a bar of soap and lather up REALLY good, but keep it moist and lathered.. don't let it dry out.
- If you CAN purchase shaving gel, I recommend 'Skintimate's Shaving Gel' or 'Barbasol Shaving Cream".
- Use a good razor, and change it often, if not EVERY time.
- Yes, disposable razors are fine.
- After shaving, you could apply lotion or baby oil to help moisturize, and assist in preventing razor burn.
- DO NOT shave daily!! Try every other two days or so.
As for what brand of razor, I use BIC for LADIES, and it has never betrayed me. :)

♥[?]♥ I live in a really small apartment with my mom and sister. Its not even a nice one either. The floors are a different color in each room, the walls are different, the tiles are coming off in the bathroom. Its a really clean apartment but just very ugly and i get embarressed to bring people over. I havnt had a boyfriend in a really long time becasue im afraid he will have to come over sometime and see what i live in.. a dumpster! I dont know what to do im reallu nervous about having one and then letting them see this place.
Sorry to give such a seemingly lame and simple response, but any guy who is even anything remotely close to being worthy of your time won't judge you by where you live, but rather who you are as an individual. :]
♥[?]♥ This may seem disgusting to most and you might feel uncomfortable answering but pelase help me. I am 17 years old and i still havnt done anything with a guy. The reason is i was always afraid i would do something wrong a=or i wouldnt know what im doing. How do you give head anda hand job? please help me.
I can tell you're really upset by this, but I don't think it's anything to stress over. Infact, if this helps you feel better: I have many friends who are 20+, and they still haven't ever held hands before, really. Just because some of your friends might have done certain things does NOT mean you should have already done them, too. You're only 17 - you have your whole lifetime ahead of you still. Truthfully, it's not as big of a deal as you might assume. It'll happen in time, and when it does it'll be an unforgettable moment. Don't cheat yourself out of one of the best teenage memories by rushing it. =]
But if you would really like to discuss the topic and procedures of sexual activites, feel free to IM me for it. My screen name can be found on my column. I'd tell you here, but that would be inappropraite and against the rules of Advicenators, sorrie..
♥[?]♥ my myspace is getting really boring to look at and it needs a change. im looking for a country layout. not a country scene, but like browns and tans, and maybe even pictures of cowboys, boots, or cowboyhats.. does anyone have a site i could find one?

Well, I'm not sure if the following websites have the EXACT layout you're looking for, but they offer many choices. Hopefully you can find one suitable:

My question is does anyone know any free virus things that will delete it?
Thanks so much.
Have you tried AdAware? That program is incredible. You can download it absolutely free at:
-- http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-8022_4-10399602.html?tag=pop
Also, if you don't already have the Google Toolbar, I suggest getting that. It's a wonderful pop up blocker. That, too, can be downloaded for gree at:
-- http://www.google.com/downloads/
(it's the Google Toolbar one)
If that doesn't work, you could get a free 30 day trial of McAfee at:
