What are good foods and drinks to have during your period? What are bad foods and drinks? (link)
| |
just eat what you normally eat. if you get cravings, like many girls do during their periods, try to avoid eating ecessively (or too little) make them go away by chewing on ice. it helps for my mom.. she's been losing her baby weight by eating alot of ice when she gets cravings. so basically eat the way you normally do.. its not like your pregnant or anything so its not a big difference when your on your period. but try not to eat something that wont cause you to get real constipated and such because cramps + feeling sick isnt very pleasant

ok i have 2 good friends and one is named julie and one is named chelsea well julie and chelsea hate each other and they recently wanted to fight each other so there parents and the school had to get involved, but thats not the problem, so julie told me if me and julie want to be friends then i have to choose either julie or chelsea and i know thats not right and im not gonna be picking friends. i dont have a lot of friends to begin with so now i want to make new friends, but im kinda shy and i dont know what to talk to anyone about, so how can i make new friends. (link)
|
well first of all, i dont think you have to give up both friends. i mean, you arent part of their little feud, so if you like them both as friends and want to continue like being friends with both of them, then do that anyway. im sure that if like chelsea found out that you were still friends with Julie, she'll still be your friend if she values your friendship. and vice versa. if they get pissed about it and dont wanna be friends with you, then they probably arent the best friends for you since they dont value you for your differences. i mean, usually when a girl hates another girl they'll tell their friends not to associate them with the person. its pretty stupid, but i guess girls (and boys too i guess.. mostly with girls though) find power in numbers. but if you dont want to be friends with one of them then go for it. same if you dont want to be friends with them at all. just break it to them gently, dont just like totally ignore them or they might get mad at you too. but if i were you, i'd just be friends with both and see what happens.
im kinda shy too about making new friends, especially around now that the school year is almost over and people generally already have friends. but just talk about the things you like.. like hobbies, sports, etc. maybe if you liked soccer and found someone else that liked soccer, you could talk to them about the sport and then like ask about other things they like, ask about their family and etc, and remember to smile and act interested in talking to them! haha.. but dont be something your not.. people will eventually tell your faking. even if you act like a complete dork in reality, just act that way and people will love you for being yourself.. haha i know it sounds crazy but i know people like that and i think its cool that they're so comfy about being themself. also remember to have good manners and stuff like that. ok if you cant do that then like in the hallway like find someone that you'd like to get to know.. say like "hey, whats up?" or "any plans for the weekend?" if you cant do that, maybe if they're a girl like compliment their outfit or wave and give them a smile when you see them. after doing that, like you already got some extra points because you made that person feel better about themself and they'll wanna be around you more.
this was really long.. haha well i hope i answered your question! ask if you need any other help!

I posted this earlier but i need more responses
22/f
I went dancing with a couple of friends of mine the other night. Now we have to drive an hour to get there and recently we see a friend (Brent) of our that we dance with down there. well I really like him but not real sure how to let him know, or if he even likes me. On the way down My friends were teasing me how I would never have the guts to dance with him (very riska) the way my other friend does. Well that day I figured well since I am playing hooky from work why not? It wasn’t immediate though. I had to build up the courage. Brent kinda helped me though. we were all sitting and this one song came on and I was the only one that went out on the dance floor because I liked the song. It was a 2 step song and suddenly Brent comes up to me and said he was going to teach me the 2 step. I was such a dork, but eventually got it. And I felt so comfortable with him. Then a little bit later the perfect song came on later for me to make my move. My friend Sabrina had just been dancing with him and she said she had to go to the bathroom. The song “pretty Woman” came on and I just went for it. Just about all out. I had never done it before but it seemed natural. we did this mostly for the remainder of the evening. Couple times I was even toying with him. It appeared as though he was liking it but also driving him crazy. And every time a slow song would come on he would actually ask me to dance instead of assuming it. Once even, when I was sitting out because I was tired and Brent was dancing with Sabrina a slow song came on and he was dancing with her,( I had no problem with that because she is married and was just dancing) a second one came on right after that but they were coming back to the couch and I hear Sabrina say ” Well I guess you will finally be able to take that break you wanted” (she hated the country song that was playing) but instead he surprisingly offers his hand out to me very charmingly and wants to go dance again with me and I hear Sabrina say ”okay I guess not” We were eventually sitting next to each other more into the night. He even was stroking my arm very casually. Little at first then more. He even had the guts to when I would lean forward to talk with Sabrina he would have his arm up on the sill so when I leaned back he would have his arm around my shoulder. We got closer too. He would start playing with my fingers and I would respond with same and eventually we were holding hands with one and the other I was all wrapped in his arms all cuddled up. I was really relaxed and comfortable until my friends said that we had to head home since it was getting late. They thought I was falling asleep because Brent was also massaging my head and neck and it just felt so good. I was so not tired. My heart was definitely racing. Afterwards we always have this tradition of walking next door to this 24 doughnut place to get doughnut holes for the ride home. It helps me be more awake for the drive home since I am the driver. Well We start walking and I said I was cold and he wraps his arms around me to keep me warm. I thought it was cute. We get our doughnuts and eat for a minute and start to head in the car. I am not sure if this worked but he gave me an extra long hug and out of umm last second thought I kissed him on the cheek very quickly and got into the car ( It was raining.) And he watched us from under the beam until we left. So what do I do now? Do you think he like me? Do you think there is any chance between us? He also lived an hour away from the club but in the opposite direction, meaning we are 2 hours apart. With our constant flirting now what? Was I giving off the right vibe? Was I too much? Please help me!! I need LOTS of answers! Thank you very much for your time!
Some of you might be familiar with my previous questions. they were about being envious of my friend and her dancing and not sure how to tell this guy how I felt. If you want to the whole story feel free to reefer yourself to those questions. (link)

i agree with abercrombie.. maybe if you seperated the huge chunk into smaller paragraphs more people would want to read it. i probably would too, if you did that. it doesnt seem like much but its kinda a big deal to advicenators.

my friend [let's call her bert] has, like, a serious problem. or so she says. i think its just because she has practically no self control and can't restrain herself. but, anyway, when she has a "good" book, she's ALWAYS reading. now, first thing you might think is: "well, good for her, most kids aren't reading ENOUGH." but when i say always i mean ALWAYS.
last week really pissed me off 'cause bert, i, and another friend [lets call her adam] were on a field trip and we stuck together the whole time. except instead of talking to us like friends should do bert read and read and read. and when we tried to tell her to restrain herself 'cause she was ignoring us, she said she didn't care [but she doesn't say that if she's not reading].
another thing, this might just be because i'm on my period, but bert is seriously pissing me off. she reads during school when she should be paying attention [even more so because her grades aren't great] and then who does she ask for help? me. who's actually doing my work 'cause i actually get it 'cause i was actually paying attention.
it wasn't like this before, it started this [school] year. & i don't know what to do. (link)

ok im just going to say what i would do.. not necesarily meaning its the best idea, but im going on what i think is best. um, you dont have to be friends with this girl, and dont waste so much time worrying about her. i once felt kinda the same way about some guy in my class that got picked on alot. i used to constantly worry about him, and i wouldnt be mean to him like the other kids would, but not really friendly either. i wanted to try and talk to the teacher to set up stuff so other kids wouldnt make fun of him then im just like thats his life.. and as long as im not mean to him, atleast im doing something.. and i cant really change what this guy is doing, because hes REALLY weird, but whatever. its kinda the same with this girl. just do the best you can and get along with your life. since she's pissing you off, tell her that you want to concentrate during class, and maybe offer to help tutor her on the weekends. its not that bad because you are actually studying yourself when you tutor someone, and it shows how much of the subject you really know. so that girl learns as you learn too. and maybe you can even charge her for the tutoring and , BAM, you've got a job. it doesnt even have to be that often. maybe like once or twice a week? depends on your schedule. if she keeps bothering with asking you questions during class, at the end of the class ask your teacher to change your seat because she's bothering you. if your teacher like changes seats at the end of the marking period like some teachers do, ask him to do it then, so it wont be that obvious that you dont wanna sit near hear, and you wont hurt her feelings.
and, did you ever ask her on the books she was reading? like what was her personality when she talked about them? some people just love books like that. i used to be a little bit like that, reading during lunch, occasionally during class, and in the hallways, then i just stopped because i could always read at home when i wasn't busy, or when the teacher assigns you to read a freechoice book. you cant force her to be social.. amazingly i have another similar story. theres this girl that draws ALL THE TIME. probably as much as you say this girl is reading. its freaky. and its all like anime/manga characters, and she reads alot of manga and watched alot of anime too. she has like no friends, and i over read her journal (we write journals during literacy) and the topic was like the funnest thing you did with your best friend, and her best friend was a comic book character! oh my god! crazy, huh. i tried to get to know her.. but shes just annoying so thats the end. dont get too worked up about it, when they wanna break out of their shell and be more social, they will. otherwise, let them continue in their quirky ways.
or i dunno.. talk to a school counselor that your concerned about her, and maybe she'll take it from there, and talk to Bert about her situation. i mean she really could be happy the way she was, like that crazy artist girl i told you about. i have no idea why.. i guess people have diff values. but you dont have to solve this girl out.. just focus on your life! have fun with the friends you wanna hang out with! you dont have to make big sacrifices like that, well unless you wanna break her out of her shell, but dont do it until she wants to do it, otherwise thats called PEER PRESSURE! haha

okay, I just read this article on anorexia, and now I'm worried I'm going anorexic!! I'm 5"9 and a half and 152 pounds, and I used to eat a lot but lately I've been cutting back so I can lose weight (I walk an hour every day).
I've cut my portions back by about half and instead of eating A LOT of high calorie stuff as snacks/etc i eat healthy low calorie stuff..but now I'm really anal about what i put into my body and etc..and sometimes I'll feel really dizzy inbetween 8 am and 11 am because i eat at 6am and dont have lunch till 11.
I don't even LOOK anorexic, so its not like I'm getting harrassed for it or anything..I'm just worried Im in danger of becoming one because i HATE way-too-skinny people, IMO they look sick and diseased, and I would hate to become anorexic, because in most cases that's losing control (i heard it can be genetic too) and i hate to lose control =P
i only want to lose weight till my BMI hits 19-20 (atm it's 22.4 according to some website), which would be when I'm 135-140 pounds.
so..am i in danger of becoming anorexic? (link)
|
your BMI is perfectly fine.. your normal, not overweight, or underweight. i dont see why you want to weigh less so much. i mean your already healthy, you dont have to be so close to being underweight to be pretty, or whatever you are trying to achieve by being just over underweight. but i dont think your diet is very safe.. it may be a start at becoming anorexia, which you do not want.
since you want to lose weight, look for healthier ways to do this. trust me, CUTTING BACK ON FOODS ONLY IS NOT VERY HEALTHY. you dont even have to really look at calorie labels and blah. in my opinion they take the joy out of food, unless you are going to the store to buy groceries. then check how many calories they are, but dont fret if they are a little above than what you want, if they are healthy. look at the food pyramid and be sure to eat based on it. eat alot of small portions, meaning that like eat maybe like a little bowl full of cereal (not TOO little, but not big either.) and then 2-3 hours later, your body will have used up all that energy from the cereal, unlike which would happen if you had a large bowl, and the body didnt need all that energy, giving you more fat. by then you'll have another little meal, too. do this like.. all day from when you wake up, but don't eat right before you go to bed, because your body does nothing with that energy, and you'll pack the pounds overnight.
in addition to eating well, be sure to excercise. i dont know what sports you like.. even if its like ultimate frisbee, lol. it doesnt matter. or you can just take to running around the neighborhood once every day. but give yourself a break day. even great athletes do that, because if you keep excercising, your body could break down because it hasnt rested. rest for 1-2 days, depending on if you feel kinda weak. ok and besides running, you can also do aerobics, and like push ups, sit ups, etc. they'll tone your body and you'll shed of a couple other pounds.
dont look at this as a "diet". think of it as a lifestyle change. dont just stop when you hit your goal BMI of 19-20. you may not even get there but who cares. great looking people dont have to weigh so little. you'll have a great body, and remember that muscle weighs more than fat, so you may lose and gain pounds at the same time, but its GOOD FOR YOU! also, if you stop excercising and eating right after you hit your goal, and return to your regular lifestyle, you'll just start gaining unecesary pounds again.
good luck with this. also, you said you were dizzy? make sure that when your excercising you have a good amount of energy (as in, your not tired.) and your not starving but not full (try not to eat until you get full.. eat till your satisfied.. thats another reason people gain pounds, from the extra food your body doesnt need. also, if you run on a full stomach you get cramps! haha same with swimming.), and carry a bottle of water with you.
Lastly, you can have a treat once in a while.. maybe like once or twice a month, eat a little of the high calorie stuff you like. and if you still go trick o treating on halloween, assuming you have 365-366 pieces of candy, make like an advent calendar, where like you eat one little piece of candy a day. if you block out these sweets all the time, you'll crave them even more when you see them, and may not be able to control yourself from not eating them. just dont over induldge.. like and dont eat too many in one day. drink lots of water in a day, too. not too much however, because too much water isnt healthy.. i forget how but my mom told me because shes a nurse and knows that stuff. soda isnt very good for you.. i dont know about you, but it gives me pimples so i just drink juice. juice is sweeter, and has good vitamins in it too. i mean soda has tons of calories too.. maybe good once in a while at parties, if you like it so much.
ok this is the last thing i'll say, haha. if you crave some food for no reason, when you know that you like just ate something else or something, chew on some ice. my mom does that, and she seems to be losing pounds, and getting thinner (she was kinda fat before, since she like just had a baby) too. dont chew on ice all the time, just for little cravings you dont really need. um, and try not to eat out so much. there was this thing on TV about alot of restaurants hiding their calorie thingies, and their foods had as much as 1,200 calories in 1 thing. yeah you dont really need that much. learn to cook if you dont already know, and maybe subscribe to those like cooking magazines with ideas for cool new great tasting foods that arent overflowing with cals.
http://www.advicenators.com/qview.php?q=487068 this person has the same question as you, too, and one person gave a great answer. read that too for suggestions.

Is this being a good friend?
- When your friend is sick at home, and you're at school, you call between every class to check on them, & when you get home.
- Make them an easter basket & drop it at their door.
- Wish them good luck on tests.
- Bring them donut holes when they're stranded at home, because they're ankles swollen.
These are just the bare minimum of things I do for my best guy friend, I'm a (16/f) and it just doesn't seem like he notices. Am I being a good friend, or should I try harder? (link)
| |
get to know him. make him laugh. thats all that really counts. you dont have to go out of your way alot to be a good friend.. i mean he might just think your nice by doing that but thats not a friend does.. well its one of the things, but its more like.. emotional.

Before I even start, I'd like to say that I'm seventeen, I think this situation is stupid, but I'm still at a loss and I need help.
I have quite a few best friends. Two of them told me this year that they are lesbians and they are together. I already knew this - and am totally okay with it. But now that they've come out to me about it, and even before them, the only conversation I get out of them is about their sex life. We never do anything together anymore - and I basically feel as if they don't need me.
I expressed how I felt on my xanga - my friend read it, as she would anything else, and then sent me a message on myspace asking me if it was about her and her girlfriend and I told her the truth - she wanted to know "what the hell" they did and I told her that it wasn't a big deal and that I was just feeling down.
Well - now she's arguing with me and making a big deal out of nothing. She takes EVERYTHING way too personally - but uses me as her vent and doormat, as if I'm inhuman and don't have any emotions.
What do I do? (link)
|
if i were you, i'd feel pretty overwhelmed. if you wanna take this advice, then do so (or dont take it) because this is what I would do.
- get new friends who you are comfortable to be around and stuff.
ofcourse it would be awkward to be around your friends when they are a couple now.. well if your not comfy with them, maybe spend less time with them, then if you still feel like they're your friends and you dont wanna abandom them. you dont have to waste your life feeling not on the top of the world, so you can hang out with some people you used to have great times with. i dont think theres really a way to solve it.. since they are a couple now and things are diff.

female, 14.
a couple of days ago, i shaved down there. is there any harm to this? it's kind of red and bumpy. and i can't seem to get it so shaved, that it's soft. it's like stubby. how do i get it so it's soft?
oh, and when i go to the drs for a physical, and they look down there, would they say anything to me because i shave? (link)
| |
um im not an expert, but i'll suggest not to shave all the hair off. if you do, ofcourse it will be stubby and it will get uncomfortable at times, and by the time it doesnt, you'll just grow more hair again. if you want it to be bare, i suggest getting a wax.

can anyone give me a list of some good topics for a research paper!? im all out of my own ideas... thnx =] (link)
|
idk do anything you like. dont think too hard about it. also its good to do something you already know about, and then the next time you have a research paper do the same topic and just do it over and over and you wont have to find too much extra info, ha.
umm... do you like any sports? just get info on the rules of the game and everything else you can get... and then write the research paper. does it have to be like a specific topic? like pets? or sports? or foods?
|
i submitted this question once already but it like didn't go through so i fixed it up a bit..
alright well..
one of my friends has very strict parents. so they were looking at her search history and found her myspace. they also found mine.
i'm not aloud to have a myspace. my parents made it very clear that if i had one, i'd be in deep trouble. i wouldnt be allowed on the computer for a long time and when i am allowed to my parents would watch my every move. so on AIM, i cant talk to anyone about private stuff.
i deleted my account already but i dont know what to do. my friends dad said hes going to tell my parents. her dad is going to say he saw it a few days ago so there's no hiding that i actually did have one.
i really don't know what to do. i don't want to get in trouble and loose my computer rights. last resort would be to come clean but i don't want to have to do that. i need to get out of this situation. i really need help, and FAST!! please, does anyone have any advice?
thank you sooooooooooooooo much. you dont know how incredibly bad i need advice. (link)
|
wow that really sucks. how old are you? well im 13 and alot of kids i know are in the same situation. uh.. alot of other people are telling you to come clean. i guess you'll have to eventually do that. trust me it would be better for you to tell your parents than for your friend's dad to. but i'll say these things to help you not feel so bad about yourself. first of all, your friend's dad should mind his own business.. he doesnt have to tell every bodies parents that other kids are using myspace when they arent supposed to. also, its not that bad to do it.. i mean alot of people like myspace. you have to be a complete airhead to go tell some guy you dont know that your going to meet them. my best advice is to make your thing private, and ONLY accept people to your friends list if you know them. yes dont add bands too.. because molesters could make them and then they track where you are. i mean you may not say where you live or anything, or your name, but your friends do in their comments. and one friend saying "hey wanna meet up on saturday at ____ mall" and since the molester already has your picture, he'll go there and kill you. its actually happened before and a molester got the girl and killed her. he got in jail, duh but your still dead after that. thats why alot of parents are concerned. bottom line, dont add anyone to your list that you dont know, and dont put out personal info. tell your friends not to put in comments not too personal info either, like the location you live in, and dont write your age either. say that your like 99 years old, and live in like Togo. or take down your picture and put a cute myspace icon you like. so.. yeah. i think alot of parents overreact with the myspace thing. its not terribly bad.. i mean in my opinion i think its okay to go on myspace from when your in... like 6th grade and up. some kids start in 5th grade.. but it really depends on your maturity and how smart you are not to like leak personal things and talk to strangers. i know how you feel.. well my parents feel the same about myspace, but i deleted mine cause it got way too addicting!! (luckily i didnt get caught on it before, but i also didnt put a picture of myself in my profile, and my profile was private.) spend time doing other things.. talk to your friends on AIM (its ok to talk to people you dont know on AIM btw, just dont leak personal info, like your full name, where you live, stuff like that.) and call them on your home phone or cell if you have one. thats pretty much all i can say... good luck! :)
oh, and try searching up how to like protect yourself on the internet through google. and then print out all this stuff and tell your parents that you understand what its saying, and try to explain that myspace isnt really that bad if its used the right way. maybe that will soften them up.. a little. because its really harsh and stupid for parents to look over your shoulder all the time... they get a little paranoid because they think you may not know what to do in a certain situation and then like do something that could end up with you getting abused, or worse. the internet can be a bad thing too.. so dont take it lightly. you may not see the big deal, but your parents do, a whole lot. well it depends on the parent.. but with your parents, like.. just try to make them not get so overwhelmed about it... ha.
i asked this already, but how old are you? OH and you and your friend should delete the history about myspace, after using it. so your parents wont ever find it, if you still wanna use it. =] delete it off your computer too before your parents go searching through it too, and delete your account, and make a new one. tell some of your friends with parents like yours and your friends who search history to clear theirs too, so nobody will get caught.
