I am 6'0 and now weigh 237(I know it's alot) I've always been overweight but not obese and legit, most of my weight honestly does come from my natural muscle and the fact that I legit am big boned.(which I know sounds odd and maybe fake to you but if you saw me you would know, not that I'm a giant or anything but I'm just bigger) but as a girl i have lost 15 pounds already from mildly excersising and drasticly changing how I eat. Now to lose weight do you need alot of protein in your diet or is that mostly just for building muscle?and I wand to work out and stuff but don't really want to gain muscle . (link)
Ah well , protein is made to building and repairing muscle tissue and it's more directed to muscles which makes them bigger probabaly right? So you want to lose the weight , but not gain muscle? Hm , that's hard to do , but i'd say don't go big resistences when your on some excerisise machine , go to some classes like yoga , polaties(pilates) and also do a lot of walking and running and some stretches. This might also help you , http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070430224359AAHog4z .
It gives some advice on what you are aiming for more. My advice to you is you can still eat/drink protein , but not too much and be aware it helps your muscles , your weight you need to do more things that loses you up , like walking ,running , jogging , and other things.

one of my eyes is puffed up (just one) it WAS red,itchy,dry,puffy, and so the puffiness made the bottom and top of the eye really wrinkle. But its not really wrinkley, it just looks like that,because its puffy. But i have been like putting an ice-cube wrapped in a paper towel, on the bottom of my eye, for like 2 days. The Puffines has reduced. I was still using an ice-cube yesterday and today, but it doesnt look like its getting any smaller, or back to normal. I have not been to a doctor, should i go? But i do not know what it is....so should i go to know what it is?? I think it is a sty...but not sure. Regardless, does anyone know what I should do to get it back to normal. (PS i do not have the kind of sty that looks like pimples on the eyelids.)SO SHOULD I GO 2 DOC., IS IT NECESSARY? OR IS IT A STY? IF SO, WHAT SHOULD I DO? WILL A HOT TOWEL DO BETTER THAN AN ICE-CUBE WRAPPED TOWEL? THANNNNNNNNNK YOU SOOO MUCH!!~~~ (link)
Oh wow , okay well I would say go to the doctor and keep putting ice on it , but i'm not sure if a hot towel will help, but it maybe sty, a different form of it , but you should go either way so you know what's going on , if you ever get it again , hope you dont. My advice to you is keep the cold stuff on since it reduced the puffines a bit , and go to the doctors to see what it actually is right?

OMG please help me , i really like my bestfriends crush and i think he likes me too , we talk every single day , he told me that he doesnt like my best friend though , what should i do should i tell her i like him ? , but were all going to the ,ovies on soon , and he said he doesnt wanna sit next to her , he also said hes bringing two of hid girl friends but i dont want him to cause i wanna sit next yo him what should i do ? plase help ! (link)
I think you should tell her. Sooner or later the truth will come out and you will have to tell about what's going on and stuff , right? Well tell him you want to sit next to him , if he wants he will sit next to you either way. Show him that you do like him and make him show that you like him too , i'm sure you guys will think of something. If you want to make it official that like eachother right. My advice to you is go and and tell them and show , you'll get lucky. It's for the best.

I have been with my boyfriend for about 8 and 1/2 months now, and we've done a lot of kissing. We also have done fingering and blow jobs, hand jobs and such. I was wondering what else i could do to keep my boyfriend satisfied, but without having sex because i am afraid of pregnancy. Does anyone have any ideas? (link)
Hm , well hey that's good , so you guys did all that what about the anal one? Have you guys tried that you? Well that's good he understands that and you guys are still together and stuff , try doing different things like make him go places , blind fold him , dress up , different positions , uhm , go and experience things. My advice to you is try anal since you didn't mention that uhm , dress up , or try other places make it more of an adventure , blind fold him , or try different positions. Good luck girl : )


My first day of highschool ( freshman ) is coming up on the 8th or 9th and its a small school but im afraid of getting harrassed like in the 6th 7th and 8th grade... what do I do? im very shy and nervous I cant even answer a question in this town without someone making fun of me like if i accident answer it wrong or something... (link)
Well , just ignore it , they are just in a state of like not being able to control what they do ? If it's guys maybe they like you ,maybe you show that you care about how much they hurt you , this makes them do it more. Just ignore it and walk away don't let it get to you , your better then them. Plus , there will be a lot more people there since your going into freshman MEANING NOT many of them are going to go and harass you , if they do go to the councillor , tell a friend , or your parents or something , you can't leave it like this because it will get worse and you need help. Please do something. Just do what you can do best. My advice for you is go and see what happens , if they still do even though all that time , I really want you to go and tell someone , you can't let that be a problem for you .

im in high school and i had a crush on this guy ever since freshman year and i am a junior now. so his sister is a freshman this year and i have a study hall with her. so she asked me who i would ask to sadie hawkins and i said no one and she suggested i take her brother. she was pretty enthusiastic about it actually. the weird part is, is that she and i never talked before and i find it odd she told me to ask her brother. i wasn't planning on it but now i think i might ask him. should i ask him since i technically got the sister approval (link)
Wow , well things happen for a reason don't they? I say maybe the guy you like maybe he's shy , doesn't know how to approach him , maybe it's time you ask. I think you should go for it , see what happens. His sister likes the idea and she seemed enthusiastic so , I say go for it :) My advice to you is you should go :) ask him.

I Need Extra Cash &&& I Was Thinking About Babysitting. Where Do I Start Or Is Thier Any Websites For Babysitters. Help Me. Any Ideas ! (link)
I'd say just google babysitters for where you live and something will come up or put up flyers saying ''Babysitter available'' or something like that , or like you know something along those lines or go out and find stuff in the phonebook or ask around. Where do you start? well I dont know where you live , but here you have to do a training course first , i'm not sure how it works there though , also , be sure you know how to do stuff in emergency , be friendly , and all that stuff. My advice to you is surf the web for your place to live, ask around , put flyers up , go explore , and get a training course done if it's needed there. Also , be sure this is what you want because it is a huge responsibility.

a few months ago i became close with this guy chris, he was friends with a bunch of other people that i was friends with at the time. we got along really well and soon i felt like i could trust him enough to confide in him about my personal life. he really acted like we were best friends.

i have a serious boyfriend (who is also friends with chris and a lot of mine and chris's mutual friends) so i was kind of surprised when chris told me that he had a crush on me. he told me this after we had been friends for about 5 months, and to me it was completely random because to me i always thought that he thought of me as a friend the same way i thought of him0 .although i guess it would explain his motives in being my friend. after he told me this i felt kind of weird around him; i pretty much rejected him because i told him that i dont ever want to be more than friends and that im happy with my boyfriend.

well now chris is going around telling my boyfriend and our mutual friends (or at least people that i thought were my friends) lies about me - saying things like i "used chris for someone to whine to about my problems" and i "only wanted to be friends with him to make my boyfriend jealous" because i was mad that my boyfriend was talking to another girl...well none of these theories that chris is spreading around about me are true. i thought i was confiding in someone i could trust when i talked to him about things that were bothering me; i never meant to "use" him. i also never even considered "using" my friendship with chris to make my boyfriend jealous, because i honestly never even thought of doing that and never wanted to make my bf jealous.

i kind of understand why he would do these things - he must feel rejected that i kind of ditched our friendship after he confessed that he liked me - and my sister says that he told her that he still likes me.

i tried going up to him and asking him to stop talking about me to other people, but he completely denied it in a very passive way - he just sort of mumbled something about how he doesnt talk about me and then walked away, completely avoiding my confrontation.

my bf says i should ignore him, but it's kind of obnoxious that i have to go around picking up the pieces - he's gone around telling my friends that i'm a bad person for how i "used" him...but in truth i was just uncomfortable with the fact that he had liked me the whole time..

how do i handle a situation like this? (link)
Wow , well obviously , you didn't notice that at all , but I will say that your boyfriend is right just ignore it , your boyfriend loves you and if he really does love/like you he won't believe whatever he says or any of your friends will believe you , your true ones , the phoney ones will believe what he says , your real friends and your boyfriend , will ask you or not believe what he has to say. Plus he is jealous that he put all that time in 5 months to be bestfriends with you and get tossed off badly , but I mean he should have seen it coming you love your boyfriend and all , don't worry about it. It happens right? Your probably a pretty girl so don't worry about it alright? My advice to you , is either talk or not talk to him , or sit him down and talk to this guy and tell him the truth and how not good you feel. Also , just ignore it , don't listen to him , just laugh it off with them , stick to what your boyfriend says , he seems like he knows what he is talking about.

k my boyfriend of two years and i have been rocky any way right now like we are fighting. well things were going good again until i go on facebook and see these pictures of these girls who are 15 16 with him but they were at his friends house and his friends little sister and her friend were taking pix now there were two that were just of the girls and him and he sees nothing wrong with them yet everytime i ask him who he is with its boys that he chills with and these were taken the other night and he said he told me but i think id remember him telling me that hes with a girl especially one im not to happy with. every time i see these i want to break up with him am i being stupid? and when something like that happends i want to approach it in a diffent way instead of straight bitching at him. idk what to do any more. (link)
Well , that's normal , your not being stupid ,you sure like him and don't want to lose him because you obviously care ,which is a good thing. It sounds like your a bit jealous though , it seems you can or cannot trust him, but be sure of it. Do you think breaking up with him is good for this? not really , there's no proof that he's being doing stuff with either of the girls though , so until you have proof then make plans , see if you can go without him. Well approach him , maybe he's doing this on purpose to see if you care , maybe you should go and do the same or something similar so it's even see how he reacts. Just be calm and don't look at that stuff , talk to him straight up , don't biotch at him it will make it worse and he'll do it more, just take a fresher. My advice to you is your being totally normal , loving , caring for this guy , NOT stupid repeat NOT STUPID AT ALL! and approach him lovingly and caring calming dont do anything like yelling fighting it wont make it better.Do it a nice way.

im a junior in high school.
i just moved to Georgia, 530 miles away form my home. i like Georgia but i miss my family like crazy. the only family i have here is my mom and step dad.
i call my dad al the time and my family but sometimes thats not enough for me. i want to hug them again. i chose to live with my mom, but i still miss my family and friends, i skype (video call) some of my family.
help. is there another way of fighting through this grief?
i go through spells, sometimes i love life and sometimes i think horrible thoughts.
what should i do? (link)
Well that's normal , but I mean you could always do the skype and remeber wherever you go , they are always there for you , don't put your hopes down or anything , don't worry. You just need some boosting up , you can always go back and visit them. My advce to you is , don't let yourself down and it's not a grief , just continue to do what you do , don't let anything stop you , you can go back and fourth.

My ex and I broke up around Christmas because we were both dealing with too much stress to handle a relationship. Then two months ago we randomly reconnected and it was wonderful... but yet again, we broke up. This time it's because it was a long distance relationship. I think we made a mistake by ending it again... Now I'm just wondering, what can I do to keep him in my life? (link)
Well I mean that's totally normal , but I mean if you really want him to be in your life reconnect with him , this time take it slower so you guys don't break up , and whatever the causes were actually in the two break ups , then work your way around it , talk about it , instead of breaking it and ending it. My advice to you is , if you really want him you'll have him. Go and make a move and reconnect with him , and take it slower and see what happens.

does it mean he thinks of you as a little sister or does it mean he likes you?
btw we ae both 16 going on 17. ive known him for about a 3 years he is always flirting but idk if hes just a playing or what. any advice? (link)
Well , most case it is a really good thing. You should have given more details , but I mean you should know by now if you known him for 3 years how he reacts with girls and stuff. Maybe he likes you since he calls you adorable and innocent and flirts with you. He obviously finds you attractive and all if he flirts with you. I think you should do something more reveiling to see how he reacts to it , like go make a move on him you know something different see how he reacts and judgind on that you'll see. You never know. My advice to you is , it's 50 / 50 chance , because you didn't give more details , but it could be a little sister thing since he would be really comfortable with you around and it might look like he is flirting with you , but not , but also , it might show that he likes you at a certain extent.

fair warning this is sorta long. sorry, but please please read it. i'm desperate. i rewrote it zillions of times to make it a bearable length to read. also i will leave out some details to remain totally anonymous.

Here's the background on the situation. I'm 17 and a girl, my best friend, also a girl, just turned 20. we've only known each other for about two years and until last week we never lived closer than 2 lay-overs and 5 hours in a plane away from each other. the timing that we met was perfect because we needed each other in that moment. we became best friends in no time, we told each other we loved each other and were sisters till the end.

we had always been cuddly and slept in the same bed snuggled up with each other, but the next summer things got a little to close sometimes. another long story short, we ended up making out a few times. the first time was really "intense" nothing too much (thank goodness) just kissing and such. we were kissy all night like on the cheeks and forehead any pretty much everywhere except the mouth area. then she sorta crossed the line. i was shocked and freaked out. she asked if thats what i wanted and i couldn't get words to come out. i just shrugged and the makeout sesh continued for a while. another time it happened, i think it might have been my fault, but it got stopped thankfully, and another time just cutesy little pecks,mostly her, and still inappropriate for friends, but less so than the first time.

about 6 months later we were finally able...er i was finally able to discuss it like a normal human being. some bad stuff happened to me when i was younger, so sexual things even just kissing and relationship discussions make me a little uncomfortable. we found out at the time we sort of wanted to be more than friends but neither had the guts to admit it.

now go forward again about 7 months.

unfortunately i think i'm still hung up on the kissing, and wanting to be more than friends thing. i love her a lot, but i never want to lose her. and now she has a boyfriend so i'd feel like a selfish ass to bring it up. so here i sit again at 3:30am stressing out about this. i know that being more than friends isn't something i want in the long run. i want to marry a man and have kids and be a happy family. and i want my friend to be like their aunt and i want her and her husbands kids to be friends with me and my husbands kids, but right now i think i want to be "with" her. sometimes in my right mind i know that that's not possible and that it's not really what i want, but other times it eats me alive.

if you read this far, thank you so so so much. this has been killing me for almost a year now. here are my "simple" questions. what on earth do i do? do i tell her how i feel? or do i be a good friend and stuff those feelings down and never tell her how crazy she makes me when she talks about how in love she is with this new boyfriend and how they plan on getting married and all this other stuff? all these late nights in tears are wearing me down, i'm open to any advice anyone has.
(link)
Hmm , well what do you do , you either take it or leave it right? If you love it let it go , right? I mean you CAN try getting her back , but since she has a boyfriend now , she likes someone else and moved on and so should you? Just look at your past as something that was a mistake , just brush it aside and start fresh because if you don't this will keep getting you back and make you stress out at 3:30 am in the morning , NOT GOOD!!! Okay well you got to tell her , you got to tell her before it's too late , or tell her that like you guys really need to talk and sit down with her and talk to her , honestly , you need to do that it will make you feel better and everything will work out , you just need some time and stuff. Don't let it wear you down and cry it's not worth it. Please talk to her tell her everything you just wrote down and all that stuff you left out too...My advice to you is either move on or tell her straight up , and you tell her how you feel it might get you somewhere.

Okay well I recently just got dumped by my bf about a few months ago. There's this other guy that came into the picture and we both like each other. BUT he's not wanting a relationship right now and to be perfectly honest I'm not really right now either. We slept together once. I talked to him about his intention tonight and he told me that I'm not just a girl he wants to use and dump on the side of the tracks but like I said he's not wanting a relationship. I was a tad bit disappointed in. Hearing this so all I said was alright. I would eventually like a relationship maybe if hed be willing to but right now I'm willing to. Just be fuck buddies for right now. I think he got the impression that we couldn't be that anymore either. What do I say to him the next time I talk to him to let him know that its alright. (link)
Well... how long do you know this guy for? You need to set your standards , I mean if you haven't met him for a long time , then you should find out more about him because i'm sure you don't want to get hurt. But , have you ever talked to him about why he doesn't want a relationship? Just stay close to him and see what happens eventually right? But , when you talk to him next time , show him sit him down and say your up for it , I still want to be , we can work it out , say that you know he is thinking wrong and just go on with what you actually feel and like what tell him that your okay with doing that and you want to do it yourself not for him , but for you too. My advice to you is definatley tell him that your up for it , be calm when you say it , talk to him about it.

Hey ppl, do you have any advice on some Cheer leading Make-up and Hair styles? I just need some ideas. Thanks! (link)
Hey! I use to be a cheerleader and what I would recommend is definatley sparkly eye catching colors , it really depends on your uniform , you have to have it matched or else it won't look good right? And for hair styles definatley a pony tail with curled hair or straight to , but if you want to look cute definatley girl it with that nice ribbon or scruntchy you got with your uniform. Some make up I would suggest is http://www.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Swg8ASa45H0/0.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.videolife.tk/cheerleading%2Bmakeup/&usg=__ba-oEiBIqqZ99dmNM6z_aDuL27Q=&h=360&w=480&sz=12&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=CxZWbSzbE6pjCM:&tbnh=144&tbnw=186&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dcheerleading%2Bmake%2Bup%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1259%26bih%3D566%26tbs%3Disch:10%2C85&um=1&itbs=1&iact=rc&dur=161&ei=vWNxTL3mFIKglAejsMjCDQ&oei=vWNxTL3mFIKglAejsMjCDQ&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=20&ved=1t:429,r:13,s:0&tx=107&ty=60&biw=1259&bih=566 or http://www.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=http://www.cheerleading.com/images/items/RDG-2.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.cheerleading.com/333-Bath_Body_Makeup_%26_Cosmetics.html&usg=__5A3NnldeCCckEZDf310e5USZqtc=&h=200&w=200&sz=13&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=z-op2I3YxDGu2M:&tbnh=144&tbnw=142&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dcheerleading%2Bmake%2Bup%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1259%26bih%3D566%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=590&vpy=97&dur=1313&hovh=160&hovw=160&tx=113&ty=104&ei=vWNxTL3mFIKglAejsMjCDQ&oei=vWNxTL3mFIKglAejsMjCDQ&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=20&ved=1t:429,r:3,s:0 with http://www.cheerleading.com/333-Bath_Body_Makeup_&_Cosmetics.html
something along those lines , should be good , if that's competition style , but regardlss eye-catching colors and stuff , good luck though :)
My advice to you is sparkly pretty eye-catching colors with hair up in pony tail with curls or straight hair.

so im not popular, but im not not popular either

well there is this guy that sits by me in one of my classes, he is incredibly cute and so nice. hes a christian like me.
well he into football and (by judging) he seems like someone who would go out with cheerleaders since they are usually very pretty.
i like talking to him, we dont talk about much, but hes so nice.
i suck at flirting and im shy.
any advice?
how can i feel better about my self or see who hes into?

ps. i know noone at this school (i just moved here) (link)
Aw well hey , it takes time , just see where it goes , just don't be someone your not , don't have a low self esteem , just strike up a conversation out of no where you know , see what makes the conversation going....... you can feel better about yourself by not comparing yourself to anyone , if you really like this guy go for it , and who hes into just look around see what he looks at most , what he's into , ask around , see who he hangs out with.

basically i know my dads cheating. i dont think reallty that is with one women, i think its prostitutes. im 18.. ive known about this for years, but this year its hit me hard. My moom has no clue, and works nights. Basically, i believe he might be doing this becasue he doesnt feel loved from us, since me and my brother hardly talk to him, my brothers away at college, and my mom works nights, while he works days. It kills me to the deepest part in my heart, and knowing that i am the only one who is holding this secret is killing me knowing my dads a lie and i have to hold a secret from my mom. I cant tell her because i have the strongest feeling in the whole world that he would hurt himself or kill himself. my parents are almost 50, and i just dont think i could possibly stand seeing them go through a divorce.

my biggest dilema is should i say something, but if i tell my dad our relationship would go further down the drain, because i have no relationship at all. it kills me to know that someone i used to be soooooooo close to is now just a lie in my life and could possibly feel not loved, but its hard to show my love when were already so far apart and i know everything hes doing and seen him lie to me not be there for me.... so if i say something to him then im afraid he'll take action to hurt himself..

If i dont say something, im sooo scared guilt will catch up to him and he'll kill himself, or he'll get caught with a prostitute.

its a circle, and i have no answer. ive been to counseling, talked to my moms best friend, everything. this is really affecting my life and i just dont know what to do. i neeed help please. (link)
Wow , well i'm really sorry to hear that. If you really feel the need to do it , you need some proof before anything. But , I think something has to be done , if it's not then it will cut and affect your life even more and it's wrong it's affecting your brother and your mom, they have the right to know. How would you like it if your husband was with prosititues? not that good and knowing your close one knew all along. I think you need proffessional help to deal with this , get him away from anything you think he might hurt/harm himself, it's dangerous yes , but I think that you can't leave it alone. You guys really need to start trying to make a bond , it's never too late.Please do something about it before the police catch him or anything like that , you need to go and tell someone, even though you said you told your mom's bestfriend... she should be doing something though... I think you guys need to support him and love him. My advice for you is , talk to your mom's bestfriend or councellors , something needs to be done , you are the only aid in this mess , you can help and save their lives. Your dad's so he isn't so clueless and your mom and brother so they don't get hurt and your mom doesn't go heart broken , and yourself. Please do, good luck girl!


Ok i'm a 15 year old female for starters...just about 2and a half weeks ago my girlfriend and I broke up because my parents dont accept the fact that i am bisexual(more lesbian) although we had been together only 4 a month i developed strong and i do mean strong feelings for her to the point where right now i am still having problems dealing with us not being together. I still have times at night where i cry just because we aren't together and from missing talking and being with her. how do i deal with this? (link)
Well , your parents just want what's best for you girl. It's okay though , totally normal , if you ask me , does she know about this? If not tell her about your parents. But , your 15 , there are so many other girls/guys out there waiting for you , don't pull yourself down so much , start some fantasies , don't be crushed over one girl. I know it may hurt , but girl trust me it will get better and she'll come back to you. You will become very well with your future. Don't worry , do what you do best and don't make yourseld down. My advice to you is , don't worry , get her back if you really do like it , but trust me so many others out there. Good luck girl!
