well i'm being told that just doing a bunch of ab exercises will not eliminate the extra fat i have on my lower stomach. i'm being told that i have to do some kind of cardio too, like running. i've always wanted to start running in the mornings or in the evening (like 7:00), but i'm too embarrassed to. i'm 14/f and the only people that run in my neighborhood are adults. i think it is really embarrassing to be the only teen running. and when i do go running i feel really unconfortable doing it. are there any other cardio workouts i can do inside? i really want a treadmill but my mom wont get one. i also have DDR, but it really hurts my feet and i get bored doing it after like 10 minutes so that isn't helping.

thanks!

wow the same thing happened to me! i was really embarrassed and scared (no sidewalks!!) but once i started doing it, it really wasn't that bad. just do it for yourself and don't pay attention to anyone you come across. chances are, they're probably not too happy to be out there either or just want to be ignored also, know what i mean? i was and still am the only teen that really runs around there and people respect me when they see me going up big hills and stuff. don't be embarrassed... it's good to be fit and healthy! inside you can do tae bo and stuff on tape.

Next year I'll be in high school and I have to do a summer science thing where I go to work with someone who has a science related career. I have to design an interview for the person too. I was wondering if anyone had any good ideas of a career that I could go "stop in" and use for the assignment. I'm not interested in like nuclear weapons or anything. I like more things along the lines of genetics or nutrition or health in general. So a doctor would seem like the right place to go, but what kind of doctor? Thanks...and feel free to go beyond the doctor stuff, any other ideas would be great, I'm open to pretty much anything.

Freshman year I had to interview I scientist which is the same except I didn't have to shadow them... I interviewed a chemist who works with flavors and a physics teacher at my high school. a doctor might be hard because they have to do their job and they can't really take you in with their patients and stuff, know what i mean? try someone working in a lab or does research because they probably have more time to answer questions and really explain their field. If you know anyone in a science field personally, go with them... you'll get more out of the experience in my opinion.

I have only been singing in a choir, but I want to start singing solos. I don't know how to sing with the confidence and volume I need. I have a good voice, I just don't know how to use it. Can anyone help?

Voice lessons can help you. It takes a little while to get everything perfected but they are good in the long run!

I want to save myself for my wedding night. Is this generaly considered weird? At school people think its really strange and generally make fun of me for it if it comes up in conversation at all. I mean, its not something I go aorund shouting, but if someone asks what I think about sex before marriage because I'm a Christian, I will tell the truth. My friends were amazed that I went out with a guy I was completely in love with for 9 months and didnt have sex with him.
Is it that strange? And is it possible to save yourself for marriage? I've heard that it gets harder to wait as you get older, and it wasn't easy in my last relationship.

no, it's not strange....it's just kind of unheard of sometimes. it's not easy but i'm sure its worthwhile in the end.

A few of my friends and I are going to Kings Island in Ohio in a week, and we want to get Tank tops made to wear to the park. We just don't know what to put on them. We like something thats a little risque with innuendo, but not super dirty. We thought of "I'll Ride Anything" but thats a little too dirty. We kind of want something to do with the park, like rides or whatever, but it doesn't have to be. We just want a funny saying to put on the tank tops. Do you have any ideas? The more Ideas you come up with, the better! Thanks so much in advance!

cnbkthxx3 knows what she's talking about! kings island is awesome. the "i'll ride anything" is awesome lol. i like the "i've ridden bigger things than the son of beast" is good! or something like drop zone: stay high. or if you want something kinda kiddie-ish- delerious from delirium.
ps - i've gone there a lot so if you have questions about rides, let me know. i "ride everything" haha

Sorry about the Category.. I'm not sure which one it should be under.
Anyway, I play soccer a lot and I sweat A LOT on my back. It's really really disgusting and embarassing, because it leaves a huge sweat mark on my shirts. I've tried wearing another shirt underneath, like a cami, but it gets even hotter and more sweat comes. Same thing with black shirts; it just makes me sweat more. I'm starting soccer again in the middle of the month, and it's going to get really hot. So my question is, is there anything I can do to reduce the amount of sweat? Is there anything I can do that won't show the sweat as much?
Thanks in advance. =]

I played soccer for a while and really, it doesn't make a difference. everyone sweats a lot and it's not a big deal, it just means you're playing hard and are healthy. don't be embarrassed by it, the rest of your team is probably the same way. you could try getting a looser shirt so it doesn't stick to you but other than that, you can't stop yourself from sweating. cut the sleeves off your pratice shirts and lower the neckline if that helps. for your uniform, you could get those things that tie your sleeves up.

I am going to a big concert tomorrow at the Madejski Stadium in Reading, England. My problem is that 28, 000 people are going and the weather is forcast to be incredibly hot tomorrow. You are not allowed to bring your own food and drink into the stadium and I'm worried that I'll pass out or something from dehydration. They do sell their own refreshments but as 28, 000 people will all want water, it's going to be difficult. Is there some sort of special circumstances where you are permitted to bring your own water into the stadium in hot weather? If not, has anyone been in this situation before and know how to get round it?

Well this is how I get it into amusment parks with stuff: get a backbag bag (like a vera bradley type thing), put the water at the bottom and have some kind of shirt or something on top (dark ususally), then throw it a wallet and some random things you are allowed to bring. make sure it's sealed new. and for food, bring gum in your pockets and anything else you can stuff it. they don't usually check THAT well. if you dont have anything metal on you, chances are they won't check you at all. If you want some sort of illness to help you get around it... i'm not sure, you could make something up. they'll be 28,000 people...what are they gonna do about it?

I have horrible cramps. They are so bad I can't stand up straight and I'm almost in tears. How can I lessen the pain? I tried ibuprofen but it's not helping and a heating pad doesn't work either.

try to move around a bit, drink some milk, get enough to eat, go to the bathroom (that might be part of the pain, seriously), distract yourself and go watch some tv, draw, or go for a walk. hope you start feeling better!

ok, so right now, i only have 1 piercing in each ear. im thinking about getting more, but the thing is i either get a lot, or stay with only a few, because thats the way i like it.

so i was thinking:
3 on each ear -- 1 ear would have 3 in a row, and the other would only have 2 in a row, with a cartilage.

i really need your guys' opinions/advice,
& if possible, any other piercing combinations you have/want/like
THANKS!!

i think 2 in each ear plus cartilege would look cool. but 3 would be too...i guess it depends on what you like really.

I wanna become friends with some of the more popular kids at my school so I can go to some of their crazy parties. I can be really shy so I don`t know how I should go about doing it. If I leave a myspace comment on anything of theirs, I often don`t get anything back.

Don't try to be friends with the popular kids... it's not worth it. get the party started with your regular friends. the popular kids will just laugh at you bent over the toilet throwing up from a crazy night but your friends will be there to help you, you know? if they never like comment back, that might be a sign that they don't want you to hang with them.

i love basketball and i have kinda planned my life around but one thing ive noticed is how all the pro basketball players taht r girls r flat chested its odd to ask this question but im wondering how to prevent that and how to stop your boobs from sweating?!? Please Help
Thankssss

not all do... i had a coach that played college basketball and she's definatly not flat chested! wear a supportive bra that doesn't contsrict you. stopping sweating is bad for you. wear something that breathes- like cotton- of get and underarmour sports bra.

Me and my husband love sex. We have it all the time, always safe sex. Is there anyway to make it different, fun, and exciting everytime we do it? New positions or fun games or something?

I rate 5s!

Best bet is to look for some online.
