I'm 15, 4ft 11 inches and 55kg; as a result I have an unhealthy BMI of 25. I am unlikely to grow in the next few years so any chance of slimming my weight down due to growing in height is out of the question. I'm struggling to lose fat and I want help to find ways to engross myself in a healthy lifestyle, one that I can maintain for years. I want to feel happy about myself and not think about the fat that is on my body. I need advice on how to combat this, please.
-Thank you. (link)

Go vegan. I went vegan this year and have lost 40 pounds, with minimal exercise, bringing down my BMI from 30 to 24. My goal for next year is to lose 30-40 more pounds, I just need to start exercising on a regular basis.
These two movies turned me into a vegan overnight.

Okay. I'm fifteen. I have trouble making friends, I've always been around adults so I adjust and talk better with them rather than people my age.
I have four (people who I would consider) friends... N, B, L, A.
N- Seventeen, different school,can talk to on facebook (rarely) only see at church.
B- had a falling out. Has depression and wont come over anymore despite my massive attempts to help.
L- Different school, always busy, strict parents.
R- only see at church, except when r comes over. (once in a blue moon.)
Me: Major social anxiety, suffer from panic attacks.. And I'm going into college next year.
How can I make friends, and get out of the house, and overall just be happy? I need help. (link)

Congrats on getting into college next year, hope that goes well for you. I dealt with quite a bit of social anxiety growing up, and my best advice is to never be afraid to be yourself, even if your feelings, dreams, etc. differ from the norm. Focus less on friends and focus on developing yourself through hobbies. Unfortunately, people can be fickle, but if you develop a hobby or interest you love, that can translate into an enjoyable career, and you can feel proud of yourself for what you have accomplished. Having 1,000 "friends" on facebook isn't an accomplishment, so don't compare yourself to others and their cliques, if you've ever felt as I had around that age. Live life, go to museums, go to concerts, go for a run in a park, paint flowers, whatever makes you happy. You don't have to wait for someone to invite you out to go do things. You can enrich yourself even if you're alone, even if you're the only one with a particular interest. Good luck

My scalp has dry patches, scabs everywhere, bumps bleeding. I'm pretty sure it's Seborrheic dermatitis cause I've looked it up and my scalp looks just like the images. No matter how many times I wash or condition it, my scalp still gets bad.
I'm actually seeing a dermatologist about another skin problem next month, so will definitely be bringing this problem to light.
In the meantime, can anyone suggest a remedy? (link)
| |
I actually just saw a dermatologist for the first time ever in my life, about a week ago, over a patch of inflammation I had on my finger, and she told me that the new cream I have been using for the past few months actually cleared the problem I had been experiencing for over a decade. Now, the inflammation is gone and pigment is finally, slowly, but visibly returning to the area. It's pretty unbelievable to me, as I assumed I'd need more invasive treatment, like surgery, pills, etc. to ever cure the problem, but now I definitely will continue this new skin care routine I found. If you're interested in learning about a specific natural remedy, to see if it could help you with your various skin concerns, rate this answer and include an e-mail I could reach you at. I apologize for the vagueness, it would just be easier to discuss what I have to share over a conversation.

So... I'll give you a bit of background information. I'm fifteen year old girl, a freshman in high school. My friend is a senior, abd he's seventeen, nearly eighteen. I'm going to prom with him-just as friends. I quite like him, however, and therefore would prefer it if he liked me in return. He's smart, nerdy, sweet, and cute, and I've liked him pretty much all year. A friend of mine told me at some point that he might like me, but I have no idea. He jokes around with me a lot, like he and I will race to see who's first getting to academic team practice, and I'll take his phone and refuse to give it back, and he'll take my book and tease me for being a freshman. He doesn't really do that with anybody else. He always makes me let him drive me home, even though my parents don't like it, because he says he doesn't want me to walk home. Very paternal. He's made a few comments that could be taken as flirting, but would be difficult to explain out of context. So. How do I know if he likes me? Like, what are some signs that he does like me, whether at prom, or in general? And, if you could further enlighten me, What might be a good way to let him know I like him? Also-please no lectures on age gaps, etc. I shouldn't have to explain myself. I just want advice, not to be preached at. (link)
| |
Just be happy you have a prom date. I went through high school without a single person, friend or love interest, asking me to go to any dance with them. The age gap doesn't matter, 2 or 3 years is nothing. If he asked you to his prom he likes you, no questions asked. He could just be shy and taking things slow.

I have very small acne and i don't really mind that but a few days ago i got these tree really large spots on my forehead and i squeezed them because hey had the white spot on the end so i squeezed it so it would come out and now the three spots are flat but slightly red. I put ice on it and it reduced the redness very slightly. I was wondering if sudocream will reduce the redness overnight? Will it get rid of the small spots if i use it more often? (link)
| |
yes, sudo cream is the best acne cream I've ever used. once you've squeezed the pus out, then put the cream over the bump and by the next day it will be gone

Is there anyone else who feels that it seems you get an upset tummy everytime just before you start your period? I know theres no way the two are connected, though it seems a weird coincidence? (link)
| |
yeah i get that before every period. dont worry, your normal or we're both f***ed haha jk its normal
|
because most of the questions i ask dont fall into the like categories so i like mostly put it in random weirdos in miscallaneous.. i mean this happens alot with other people too, which shows, because the most used category is random weirdos. answer to this if you think that advicenators should get more categories, and which ones you think we should get. unless you dont think so, and state your reasons why.
i have some of my own categories they can add.. there can be lots, so just like brainstorm and stuff, so we can get alot of replies so maybe the advicenators staff can see this and then like add the more categories.
thankyou for your time. =] (link)
| |
I agree. Advicenators should make a question and then put it at the top of the page so that we can all give them input for the categories. and then they do it again and we can give our final remarks and they'll revise if needed, and then its done! cause right now yahooanswers has the best categorization, but not very good answers while we are the opposite. lets be the best in both now!

I like this one guy. Lets call him Tom. He sits next to me in one of my classes and whenever we talk we like get along. or like if i make a joke he laughs and agrees with what i was saying. I think he's pretty hot (understatement) but I don't know that much about him. I'm scared to just talk to him like being like "whats up" and everything. but we ask each other questions sometimes in the class like about classwork, thats it. I feel pretty shy around him.. like I get self conscious about how I look and about getting up to go to the bathroom during class or something cause i dont want to look awkward or anything. i dont knowwww. hes so nice though. he's one of the nicest people i've ever met. i've never heard him say bad things about people and i think thats amazing.
Like I dont know.. its the first time I've seen a guy that I can actually see myself dating. like sometimes i get crushes on guys.. but oh gosh i have such high standards for the perfect boyfriend that all my previous crushes haven't made the cut of someone i wouldnt mind looking back and knowing they were my first kiss and everything. yet it is still a crush.. i dont know much about him. i added him on facebook and he doesnt go on much and theres not too much info about him other than hes a guitar player in a band (epitome of HOTTT) who actually sounds good for a local band (they usually suck where i live)
but at the same time i feel like i cant pursue anything.. even if i knew how to. im too shy. but anyways, my family is moving to a different state late this month or in february. and we probably don't live near each other.. we're high school sophomores so we can't drive. i dont know when or how i'd be able to hang out with him.. since i dont even know if my parents would approve such a relationship (interracial..). i know my friends would be supportive but i dont know about his friends. he's pretty much everyone's man.. and there was this one guy (calling him Sid) who used to sit infront of me who talked to him occasionally.. idk how close they were.. didnt seem like it much. he seems to be close with this other guy who i know from years ago and is pretty chill. I only met Tom this year and got a crush on him immediately after he sat next to me (haha assigned seats) when we switched seats after the first marking period. but i've always thought he was cute.. but i never really paid attention to his existance since i didnt sit near him or anything before. and he was nice when i first talked to him too but Sid would butt in occasionally and say something and laugh.. trying to make me look bad or something?
anyways, Sid still makes fun of me. he sits at a different point in class (hes one of those cool annoying kids who is like a class clown) but then he'd call my name in the middle of class (when we're doing an activity or nothing at all but theres still talking.. not like in the middle of a lesson) and wave and smile really big.. you know, the big fake smile with open eyes and raised eyebrows. i either respond to it by waving with the same demeanor on my face but showing my dissent or ignore it. ughh i dunno what to do about that one. HELP!
Sid started doing it cause this other guy.. lets call him Logan, began it in the first place. like he is so fcking annoying. gosh. he used to be nice until 7th grade. and then i dont know how but i got a crush on him then and we used to be like friends and talk in class and then he just changed.. i didnt even get why i liked him cause i could never see myself dating a Jack*** like him. anyways, i forget how or why but the word got to him that i liked him that year and he told my friend that he didnt feel the same. anyways idk if he still thinks i like him or something.. like i seriously despise him to bits .hes a jackbutt (gonna say that word instead) like 90% of the time. and in that 10% when hes actually nice im still cautious and expect it to change to his typical self any moment. i dont take him seriously, basically. like he acts like hes this macho or something when everyone sees him as a kid and nobody really likes him too. so he does the same thing as Sid and started it actually. id come into class late and he'd say my name loud and would say it in a fancy way. its really annoying and ive told him to stop but he keeps doing it. hes in several of my classes unfortunately. this one guy noticed (different guy) and he told me to like kick him in the balls or something. haha like i cant actually do those sorts of things. i dont like conflict.. there's no other time i'd be able to talk to him cause its not like im gonna get his cell number or talk to him on facebook. if i said something on facebook he'd probably take it as a joke and think i like him since im taking the time to send him a message.. and then spread it to other kids who will make fun of me and stuff. but i just dont know what to do. like it doesnt affect other people when they do that. are they mocking me? Sid and Logan? i dont know. it definitely seems like it. or are they just trying to get to know me better? I like when people are straightforward. Like Tom. I like Tom a lot. And sometimes actually... it sounds horrible but occasionally I get crushy feelings for Logan. Maybe its cause he talks to me too much. probably. if he stopped talking to me id just forget about him and even though hes a jackbutt most of the time occasionally i think of a 1 night stand. haha would never happen at my age or anything but it just sounds hot for some reason. but at the same time when i truly think about it that is not what i want. i want Tom.. but I cant have him... I dont even know if he likes me . I dont know how to act around him or around Sid and Logan. I want Sid and Logan to stop pestering me.
Advicenators please help me!!! you can tell this has been bothering me for a while cause of the length of this question. i havent been able to talk about it with anybody. i havent been close with any of my friends really lately.. (more like, this entire schoolyear) too busy with schoolwork.. got midterms soon. im not a nerd or anything, i just procrastinate too much and need to get out more. i need better friends.
i hate those times when you just feel like making out with someone. right then. i cant wait to have a bf where its actually possible. but i feel so mixed about it.. cause when i think about it i think about Tom.. how I'd want to kiss him.. with my other crushes when I thought about it it just didnt seem right but blahhh its probably just lust mostly right now since i dont know too much about him. FML FML FML
help, please!! (link)
| |
oh yeah and i forgot to add that Tom is pretty quiet and doesnt say anything during class unless he's called on or someone's talking to him then he's pretty chill. he seems to be pretty into music and i am too so im hoping to lord we like the same music.. AHH amd at the same time its so tragic.. what if he doesnt like me? and my other issues :(

I'm fourteen years old, and I'm a girl.
I've been dying my hair since I was nine.
I used Sun In, and my hair was like dark blonde w/ some red highlights, they were natural.
I did that for about two summers.
When I was thirteen, I finally died my hair brown.
And now it always lightens back up, because it's a semipermanent dye.
I want to get my hair stripped, but with that hurt my hair in anyway? and how much does it cost? (link)
|
damn its just hair
leave it alone, unnatrual hair is not attractive
just let the blonde grow back, jeez

So I'm 18/f.
I'm in a long-distance relationship right now, with an amazing guy. He's coming to town for a week on the 14th and I can't wait to see him.
But my mom is being a huge hassle. For one, she's making him stay at a hotel on the other side of town (which is 60 bucks a night.) Plus, she read his blog on his myspace and made him add her as a friend on facebook just so she can "know what this kid's all about". I find myself repeatedly apologizing to him because of her invasion of our relationship (she's always asking me what he meant by blah blah blah or teasing me about what I'll leave him for a comment, etc.) It's getting so annoying. I know she means well, but I feel like I'm under constant supervision.
She's insisting on driving me to the airport to pick him up when he flies in, and she even refuses to wait in the car when I go in to find him. All I want is to say hello to him without her supervision, since I haven't seen him in person since December. How can I convince her to just back off?? Help! I'm desperate. (link)
| |
i agree with caitie bug. be happy that your mom actually cares enough about your well being. but apparently you knew him before NOT on the internet? still.. you never know peoples true intentions and it may seem like you know him sooo much but there have been many cases like this that can go horribly wrong. i mean you must be smart enough to know that, your 18 and im only 14.

15/f
I have feelings for this senior, at one time I thought he might like me too. (ie..We never talked and he threw a paperball at me..then he picked me for his group and sat right next to me, he had his arm touching me the whole time and everytime he said something to me he looked me in the eyes. And he would nudge me with his shoulder or his leg. And he was teasing me and laughing with me. Note there were two other girls in the group. One sitting on the other side of him and the other in front of him.) But anyways i thought he might have had feelings for me too and you can see why. But then he started to kinda drift off and he wasnt talking to me as much. (He had a girlfriend the whole time, but when this "drifting" began to happen i heard they had broke up) And he would occasionally talk to me. One day he was sitting in the corner alone staring at the floor and i said "what is wrong with you cj?" and he started to mumble under his breath, and i said "yeah i heard nothing you said" and he began to smile and said good you werent supposed to. And i said ok then and began to smile and laugh back. But then i heard that they never did break up. And everyone is telling me i should go for it and ignore the fact that he has a girlfriend. But I couldnt do that. I would hate to think how i would feel if that happened to me. I am not the kind to steal a guy from another girl, whether i like her or not, i just dont feel its right. But i really would like to get to know cj if you know what i mean. But he has college and basketball, and the girlfriend. My friend said that we should write a note between each other talking about how i feel about him and his girlfriend and what she thinks as well (my friend) then stick it in my binder and when he checks it for our class then he will see it and read it (because everyone loves to read notes). (mind you this note would be between me and my friend talking about me and how i have a thing for him). What should I do?? I know he is a senior and everyone says seniors want freshman for their body. But we grew up in a small community and it just isnt like that with most of us. If that is true it is the senior girls and freshman boys.
What should I do about all of this
PS his girlfriend is a cheerleader and im not, i know that most jocks like cheerleaders, but i have this feeling that there is something there between us...And the other day we was sitting at the computer at school and he was looking up car parts and he seemed really concentrated and i was bored and all i could think to say was "whatcha doing?" (he would reply something) and "im sorry but im really bored" (and he replyed its ok)
i think he might be confused but it seems like sometimes he shuts me out...its driving me nuts
(link)
| |
I'm not sure of this guy's true intentions. Whether you live in a small community or not, that does not mean that the boys have less hormones and wont do as much things as the people in the larger ones. im not sure.. because if that guy has a girlfriend, why is he flirting with you? and does his girlfriend know about it? maybe you should try to talk to her about it, being aware that shes his girlfriend, and sound like your just concerned that he may be flirting with you and you didn't believe in doing things like that knowing she was his bf. its better that you tell him first before he makes up this lie about it.. like have you ever seen John Tucker Must Die? where the man cheats on 3 women at once? watch that, and also read a book called.... geez i forget the name! i just read it in the library about these freshman girls all "falling in love" with this notorious senior guy who was really nice and caring but only wanted them for sex. they ended up writing in the end of a book called "forever" by judy blume (the school's copy, in the story) about that guy who did all the bad stuff to many innocent girls at that school. yeah i know im getting too far in though but im just saying to be cautious. you can still be friends and stuff now, and only go into a relationship when you think its the right time. keep a level head and dont let him do things that make you feel uncomfortable.. and you'll be fine! :)

maybe get her a shirt that says "black is the new pink" and then get one for yourself that says "pink is the new black" and wear it to school. that would be kinda funny i guess =]
|
I Just bought a new pair of boots. I love them,
but the bottoms of them are slick on tile floors.
It doesn't help at all when they are wet!
Does anyone know a way to keep me from breaking
my neck and still be able to wear my new boots? (link)
| |
maybe you could glue something to the bottom of the shoes? like sandpaper? lol dont kill me for my dumb answer but all i generally know is that you should glue something to the bottom if you still want to wear those shoes

Okay, so I'm starting to go to the gym almost everyday and I do the elliptical for 40 minutes and then I just play basketball for a little, but I'm working on getting some more arm muscle too. I am a 36C and I really don't like it. My boobs sag a little and I'm only 14. I bought this new bathing suit at Victoria's Secret but my boobs don't look good at all in it. My boobs are also kind of far apart even though they're big. How can I make them be sort of more..in/together? They sag a little and it looks like my boobs go out. And if I lose my goal of 20 pounds, will my boobs be smaller and more up there? I kind of want boobs that are in place. My friends who are A's and Bs have that. (link)
| |
I have friends who are As and Bs who have boobs that are far apart. I'm a 32C which i guess is a little big but not really, and my boobs are not too far apart and dont sag. its probably because you are getting the wrong bra. go the store you usually buy bras from and dont just get the frilly kinds, get the ones that give the best support and stuff, and your boobs can even be pushed up, and pushed closer together, without you losing weight! :P bras are clever, yes? cause there are many big boobed people with boobs close together too. be proud of what you got, and its good to get exercise but dont feel like you MUST lose weight to get the look you want because its totally not true! :) hope i helped
