BIOGRAPHY:
My name is Carrie, and I just recently turned 25. I've been told that I give excellent advice, so I created this column last year with the intention of helping as many people as possible. Although I do believe I succeeded, I ultimately turned my back on this column when I discovered just how cruel and thankless some people can be. Almost one year later a lot has changed. I've gained a whole new perspective on life and the world around me. I'm much more positive, sympathetic, and willing to listen when people truly need help. So now I've decided to come back and focus my attention on the individuals who are truly in need of advice.
ADVICE:
I'm very genuine when it comes to giving advice. I try to be sympathetic to the person asking the question, but I don't ever sugar coat things. I've learned quickly that many people who ask for help don't really want advice - they want someone who will say what they want to hear. Sorry, but you're not going to get that with me. I'm not here to make friends (if a friendship happens though, yay for me!). You'll always get the truth from me whether you like it or not. While the truth may sting just a bit to begin with, it will absolutely set you free in the long run. If you want to be lied to, please seek advice from somebody else.
CONTACT INFO:
If you like my advice and have additional questions for me, click on the link right underneath this profile that says "Ask Me A Question." If you leave your follow-up question for me in my feedback, I have no way of replying to it. Please use the link. Also, I have an e-mail address where people can get in touch with me if they need to. Feel free to use it.
IMPORTANT:
This may be a hobby in some people's eyes, but I don't like it when people waste my time regardless of whatever it is I'm doing, which in this case, is providing a free service out of the kindness of my heart. So please don't ask me stupid questions, and please make an effort to type sensibly so that I can read and understand your question. I know there are a lot of young people on this site, but that's no excuse to type like you're brain dead. Proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation is highly appreciated with me. The more intelligent your question is, the more intelligent of a response you'll get from me.
ABOUT ME:
Here are some facts about me. I like pop music (especially Madonna). I like horror movies (especially Scream). I like to chat (on MSN). I love to write (poetry, screenplays, short stories). I love shopping (Best Buy). I'm a gamer (I'm better than a guy - Xbox 360 all the way). I have a MySpace (Click "Ask Carrie" for the link). I love my doggies (I have 2). I'm not a bitch (...well, sometimes). I love to laugh (and sometimes I pee a little when I do). It happens.

Modify your diet and increase your exercise. It really isn't as hard as people make it out to be. Try a cardio workout to begin with because even though they can be very vigorous, they can also be a lot of fun and motivate you to keep at it. I highly recommend getting some fitness DVDs and working out in the comfort of your own living room if you like. Start out with something simple such as Richard Simmons' Sweatin' To The Oldies. That's a classic and has helped generations of people lose weight and keep it off.
Also, I would suggest working on your trouble areas specifically. You say your biggest problem are love handles...I would suggest doing sit-ups daily and lots of bending and stretching from side to side. Stand on the floor with your feet spread apart and simply twist your midsection back and forth. You can do this while you watch a movie or something (making exercise consistently convenient is key to making it a habit). Come up with your own routine if you feel like it. Also, there's nothing like going to the gym to get motivated and pumped by all the people working out around you.
If I were you, I would get a CD player or an iPod and listen to a bunch of songs you loved from last summer. Work out to them as you imagine how you felt back then and keep yourself motivated by knowing that this summer will be completely different. You will have the body you want and you will feel amazing knowing how much hard work you're putting into making this happen. Talk to yourself as you do it and keep a positive, motivating inner dialogue going. Be your own cheerleader.
You sound determined, and I think you can do it! :)
