I would like to know what anorexia does to your teeth
Anorexia will cause bone loss and thus also enamel loss on your teeth, so they will become looser and start to get gaps between them.
Bulimia causes teeth to decay because the constant purging means a lot of stomach acid going over the teeth and eroding them.
Either way, not eating or eating too much and purging is not good for your body, and your teeth are probably the least of your concerns...
is it cheating if you get a blow job from a girl who isnt your girlfriend?
Yes
okay i am 5'2 and 135 pounds. i wear a size 2 in jeans and size 4 in dresses because of my breasts...they are 36c. I always think I am overweight but I just wanted a second opinion. Oh I also have a lot of muscles from running, swimming, diving, soccer and basketball. I am an athletic build with some curves. Am I fat or overweight?
It kind of depends on your body fat percentage, but as a guideline you could look at your BMI (http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/) which is 24.7. Here's what the BMI ranges mean:
Underweight = 30
So you're in the normal range, neither fat nor overweight.
There's a video I enjoy watching (not a porn one, if you're wondering).
I would like to know how I can save a video from facebook to my documents. I can't have the person send it to me, and I can't see it unless I log onto my OLD facebook account (which I really don't want to do again). I'd much rather just have it saved in my documents so I can access it easier.
How can I do that?
You can download it at http://www.facebookvideodown.com/ by entering the video url
You will need to ask the person to set the privacy settings on the video to "Everyone" for you to be able to download it (they can change it back afterwards)
My life is a wreck. I was naturally just born ugly. My life felt like it was falling apart starting in fifth grade. I had buck teeth, short curly hair (I had extensions then), I was a good foot taller than everyone else(I was 5 foot five, they were 4 foot 5), and I also got acne really early so my face was always a greasy mess. Now, going into seventh grade, I have no friends. I'm terrible at every sport even though I am a "nerd". I have braces, acne, and I'm going to have to get glasses soon. I also wear a back brace because I have a curvature in my spine and if it gets worse I might have to get surgery. I just feel like an awkward lonely loser. All I wanted this year was to be popular. School's starting in three weeks and I really don't want to screw things up this year.
By the way if it helps, I'm twelve, five foot eight and ninety-nine pounds.
Hi, I am sorry you feel that way. Reading your "question", you're focusing on your appearance - what you look like is not going to make you any more or less popular than the next person. I was also awkward at your age - very tall, the tallest person in my co-ed school (and I am a girl!), pale skin, a nerd, bad at sport. What I did first of all was get a sense of humour; I would joke about my height and my pasty white skin.
If you can make people laugh, you have them on your side (not laughing at you, but with you). If I had a back brace I might tell people I was auditioning for the Robocop re-make - you know, light-hearted stuff like that. Or: there was a girl in my highschool with a back brace and she was very popular, probably because she didn't make a big deal out of it! People liked her for her personality, they didn't care about the brace.
The next thing to do would be to buddy up with the others in your class who might also be viewed as "losers", or less popular. You will find many good, lifelong friends. Remember that most of your classmates are having the exact same issues with self-confidence that you are, and most of them would be grateful for your friendship.
i have dated my boyfriend for 4 years nown am 22f still a virgin, we both decide not to have sex till we are married. any time we re together the temptation keeps coming seriously i always fell like doing him too but we just want to keep to our promise and also am so afried of losing my virginity pls what should i do
Who did you make your promise to, was it to each other, or to god, or..? If it was for religious reasons and your religion is important to you, then you should probably wait. In my opinion (I am not religious), I would definitely want to sleep with the person I was marrying, before I married them!
Hey everyone, I'm doing a Psych. uni assignment and I was just wondering if I could get your opinions/advice on my hypothesis, if its correct etc.
A researcher was interested in the relationship between number of employees supervised and managers’ stress levels. He asked five managers to fill out a stress questionnaire and also took note of how many employees were under their supervision.
IV - Number of employees under supervision.
DV - Stress levels.
Hypothesis - The number of employees under supervision positively affects stress levels.
Could you also, please tell me if its alright to use the word 'positively' in my hypothesis? Or should I just simply say, The more employees under supervision, the higher the stress levels.
Thank you!
How about "There is a direct correlation between the number of employees under supervision and manager's stress levels"
I agree with you that the word 'positively', while technically correct, could be confusing in this context.
So my girlfriend went to a party with an ex. There are two of them there actually. It is a twenty first birthday and they are drinking. Is this okay? Should I not be worried. I would not consider drinking with my exes. I would feel like I was betraying my love. I just want to know if I am being paranoid. I mean people can get crazy when they are drunk. I trust her with all my heart. But I know what happens when people get drunk. Esspecially when exes are involved. Also she is staying the night.
Well.. I disagree with some of the previous advisors - I don't think she *necessarily* wants to hook up with her exes. It may happen, there being booze around etc, but only if she lets it. But just to say that often people and their exes run in the same social circles, so this isn't necessarily a big danger zone.
I'm not sure if this party already happened, it's not clear from your question..? If she got drunk and stayed the night when she hadn't planned to, then yes, be worried. If this party hasn't happened yet, why aren't you invited too?
Ok I'm moving out of state with family and plan on goin to school out there but I need new everything! Bedroom furniture , laptop , clothes everything but as almost every other college student I'm broke. My question is how can I get money to pay for these things and is there a place a could pay monthly on the bedroom furniture and laptop? Thanks in advance all suggestions are welcome :)
I'm not sure where you are so this may not apply, but you can get lots of things for free on freecycle http://www.freecycle.org/group/US/ or on craigslist http://geo.craigslist.org/iso/us (look in for sale > free once you have chosen your area)
Well, I write stories. More known as "Fanfictions" But to the point. There are random black lines that apear in the text. And they are anoying me quite a bit. To look at a screen shot of them click here : http://i1213.photobucket.com/albums/cc466/xXVioletRibbonXx/BLAH.png
If anyone can give me an answer ads to how to get rid of these. Please do!
It looks like a border that you get from typing 3 hyphens and then enter.
To get rid of them, click just above the line and then go to Format > Borders and Shading > None > Ok
The thing is I really like this guy , I propably love him . He is my sister's best friend , my best friend's brother and 8 years older than me . And , oh yeah , he has a girlfriend ( like those weren't enough -.- ). Anyway , my best friend says it is not a problem for her. In fact she said that she doesn't like her brother's girlfriend .
This guy is the most impossible-to-be guy . He is totally lovable . Even his name says "Beloved" . So , i need some advice because I think i don't have the maturity to be his closest friend . I talk to him and he says I'm funny and beautiful , but it doesn't seem like he's interessted in me ...
Don't do anything. If you make a move while he is happy with his girlfriend, then he will resent you for it. If one day he and his gf break up, then you can think about dating him. He is 8 years older than you - show your maturity by not messing with his current relationship.
Hi, I'm 27 and working in Alberta at a group home. Without going into details I was a mid-level supervisor with my "old boss". I have had a recent verbal review from my team leader which was very good, but I am supposed to have a written copy - when I ask my team leader for a copy, she says she is "getting around to it". That's been going on now for four months.
New boss arrived. As part of her "shake things up" routine I was asked to transfer to the other house in order to work the floor (and at night do paperwork, streamline documents and such). I was told then that the reason for this is due to some perceived health issues - I am not sick or stressed out although I am told that I am by my team leader and boss. I was also told that this is not a demotion.
Ok, fine, whatever. Then I was sent a letter of job offer which states that I will be getting paid at the beginning end of the wage scale for working the floor, and my "regular" rate of pay will apply at night only for as long as there are funds for it.
In the meantime, this is starting to look less like a transfer of work and more like a demotion, except for the part where I have been notified that it's a demotion. I've lost preferred break/vacation status (now i plan my days off around others) as well as other supervisory perks.
The thing is, I have not signed nor accepted the job offer letter. I was given a choice between taking the transfer and "well, you know what's coming if you don't" but at no time was it stated that I have poor work performance. I was TOLD my performance was excellent, but no written proof.
So what do I do now? I love my job and the people I work with and would quit only as a last result, but it looks like that is becoming a primary option now. Am I reading this situation right? What can I do to protect myself here?
This stinks. You need to start getting written confirmations not only of your review but also of your new role. You should also get it in writing that the offer was "take this new role or get out". It's very difficult to combat these things without evidence. You are well within your right to ask for documentation, so don't let them fob you off.
By the sounds of things, they are lining you up for redundancy/layoff. Usually if they think you are no longer able to perform in your current role, they are legally obliged to find a less demanding role for you elsewhere in the company before telling you there is no longer a job for you.
Don't sign anything until you get some answers. Call a meeting with your old team leader and ask what is going on. She may be able to be more candid with you now that she is no longer officially your boss. Have you got an employment contract? Read it thoroughly and find out what they can and can't do to you. Find out what your company's official layoff process is. I've fought a disciplinary at work before, and basically what they do is see how much they can get away with - your best course of action is hold them to the letter on HR processes. You may wish to start using phrases like "constructive dismissal" in your meetings - but see what your old team leader has to say for herself first.
Just editing to add: while all this is going on, make very sure you don't step out of line, not even once. Don't call in sick, don't arrive late, don't fall behind on deadlines. Be an exemplary employee - don't give them ammo!
i'll try to make this short: i'm 21/f and for past couple days now i've been getting menstrual-like cramps and sometimes the cramping travels down my right leg (i've had this sensation before during my period). i know it's not my period because i had it a couple weeks ago. i just want to know what's going on. if it helps, i started a new workout routine that consisted of bending down a lot and my lower back's been sore. thanks for the help.
Have a look into sciatica (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sciatica) which has some of the symptoms you suggest, i.e. pain shooting down one side/leg and lower back pain/inflammation that I guess could feel like menstrual cramps?
Me and my friend were really close. We were too close but i would sometimes feel that he is not a true friend. I would do everything possible for him. He started dating a girl I never approved. I somehow managed to separate them on a bitter note. Later, I developed some differences with my friend and meanwhile by utter misfortune got close to his girlfriend...he would think we are dating so he was very upset. I also didnt bother then and unintentionally hurt him. Later, I realized that the girl is not a nice human being. she is fake and very materialistic and it was just an infatuation. I want my friend back. I feel guilty for all that he had to suffer. He doesn't talk to me at all. I tried to say sorry but everytime it ended on a sour note. But, i cant go back to him as i m scared that he would shout at me, abuse me and indulge in physical fight and might create a scene.
Think about this from his point of you: he starts to date a girl, but you say don't approve and split them up. Then you argue with him and start dating the girl yourself! What kind of friend does that?
All you can do is sending him a letter or email explaining how sorry you are and that you value your friendship. It's up to him whether or not to take you back. It may be too late.
Hi, i've been dating my boyfriend for almost 9 months now, and we're very serious. We've talked about marriage and living together forever, and i've never been so sure about being with someone. We may be young but i know for a fact that i could be with him forever.
Anyways, my problem is, my two worst enemies are both his most obsessive ex girlfriends. multiple times have i caught him still talking/flirting with other girls including them, but also not on just his part, they're also the ones who engage. it's been months since something like this has happened, but recently when i was away he was at a party and one of the girls happened to be there. rumors started to spread and there was a bunch of he said she said. but now i know for a fact that he was talking to her and offering her a ride home and trying to hang out with the other girl as well. i told him the last time something like this happened that this time, we were over and there was nothing he could do to stop it. but when we were talking about it, after he picked me up from work, i told him we were over and i was going to get his stuff so he could take it back. but he chased after me and grabbed a hold of me and told me how much i meant to him and he literally couldnt live without me. he was bawling his eyes out and said earlier that day when i texted him and told him we were over and that i didnt even want to see him that he sat down at work and cried his eyes out. i've never seen him so upset before, i didn't know what to do. so i just decided to lay it off for now. but i feel like im betraying myself and im disappointed that i couldnt follow through on my word..
sorry if this is too long, i just want to know what anyone else would do in this sort of situation if they truly love someone as much as i love him...and if you think i'm making the right decision by staying with him. thank you very much for any replies, its greatly appreciated
Don't let him emotionally blackmail you into staying together. All you are doing is teaching him that it's ok for him to mess around because all he has to do is turn on the waterworks and you'll come running back. If he couldn't live without you he wouldn't be risking your relationship ending by hanging out with all these other girls. In my experience, once a cheat, always a cheat. If you really love this guy then give him one last chance - but if anything happens, you leave. Make sure he knows what the consequences are.
The guy I like broke up with his girlfriend about a month ago so I decided to give him some time. He texted me two weeks ago I flirted then he said he was sleepy so I said "I'm so bored but don't worry I'll get you back by bothering you tommorow:)" then I texted him the next day but he didn't answer. I texted him last week and he still didn't text back so I gave up. Then last night he texted me saying "you failed at bothering me" I told him well you didn't text back How was I suppose to know you weren't busy. Then he said because I wasn't. We talked for a little while. Now I'm so confused. Does he just want me to chase him? He dosnt text me back but then texts me asking why I didn't text him? Does he want to feel important? If thats what he wants I could play along but I'm not going to if he dosnt want me. Should I wait or text him today?
It sounds like he wants you to chase him, although it looks like he will chase you back if you leave him alone for long enough. If you're happy to play games like that then go for it, but make sure you're not the one doing all the chasing. It takes 2 to play this game. Leave it a few days - if he wants to play, he will be in touch.
I'm on a diet and I ate kind of a lot of slices of watermelon today. Will I gain weight?
Watermelon is not calorie-dense so it is unlikely that you ate enough of it to put you significantly over your overall caloric burn.
It is theoretically possible to gain weight eating a lot of ANY food, if your calorie intake exceeds your calorie output.

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone knew any workout/weight loss/whatever tips for losing fat in my upper body? I'm a bit overweight, nothing too bad; I wouldn't call myself "fat". BUT I do believe I look a lot bigger than I really am due to the fact that I have somewhat broad shoulders & tend to retain fat in my arms, upper back, and like, I guess where my armpits are? :/ So that makes me look wide and like I have no boobs haha. Anyway, I know that whatever a person's natural body shape is, that's the way it is, no matter how much exercise one does. But unsurprisingly, the whole thing with my upper body is a lot more accentuated when I gain weight. Whenever I slim down, yes my overall shape is the same, but it evens out a little more.
The thing though is that I've heard any exercises targetting these areas tend to replace the fat with muscle... I don't want that. I don't want muscle. I just want fat loss. So can anybody help? I'd appreciate it. :)
You cannot target fat loss in specific areas of your body, it doesn't work like that. It's also impossible for women to put on muscles without either doing a hardcore training/bulking program, or taking steroids, so don't worry about that. The aim should be to lose fat overall without losing muscle tone. Exercising just these areas with help you to retain those muscles, but only in combination with a high protein diet. There will be no fat/muscle replacement going on!
Make sure you do an overall body toning program combined with a fatloss program (to burn calories), so that when the fat comes off you reveal your gorgeous toned limbs below!
Does alcohol increase the effects of other drugs? It is dangerous to mix the two?
As the first advisor said, I wouldn't mix the 2 as you wouldn't get your money's worth! That said, I think weed and booze can work well together. Shrooms and alcohol will probably make you puke. Ecstasy & alcohol - lessens the effect of the ecstasy. Coke and alcohol depends on how much of each you take but you can get much more aggressive if drinking. Smack & booze? You've got bigger problems than whether or not to mix your vices :)
Hello I want to lose approximately 20 pounds within the next 3 months. I do actively work out about 3 times a week for about 1.5 hours. I have stopped drinking soda all together and i'm working on eating healthy. I was wondering if there was any diet pills that could help me shed the extra pounds? Has anything worked for you? I'm a female if that matters. Thanks and any weight loss tips would be appreciated!!! I do rate thank you everyone.
What do you want out of your diet pills? Fat loss? Appetite suppression? I have tried various pills in the past (Hoodia, fat burners etc) and the one that seems to give me the most effective appetite suppression is Proactol. It's also supposed to bind to fat in your stomach so it doesn't get absorbed into the system, but I don't know too much about how it works or even IF it works. That being said, I can get the same effect (loss of appetite) from coffee, which is a lot cheaper :)
My best advice would be to take it slowly, don't freak out about your 3 month deadline, and don't go to extremes with your diet or training or this will just lead to bingeing and delay your weightloss even longer.
