:.Hey x3
My name is Emily and blah blah blah.


:.I have a lot of personal, family, and friend issues of my own so a lot of times, I can probably relate to you a lot of times if you have personal, family, and/or friend issues.


:.I can offer a lot of information, help, and advice on family and friend relationships, love lives, depression, stretching/flexibility, weight loss, violin, being organized, dog training, forensics (public speaking), keeping up with school/extracurricular activities, eating disorders, writing (stories and poems), and probably a lot of other random stuff like what to drink when you eat something spicy and why.


:.Although I can help a lot of you guys on the above subjects, I don't tend to take my own advice so it can become quite an awkward/ironic/contradicting situation for me or make myself sound like a complete and utter hypocrite.


:.Hannah Whitall Smith once said, "The true secret of giving advice is, after you have honestly given it, to be perfectly indifferent whether it is taken or not, and never persist in trying to set people right." I agree 100% of it. Advice is advice and it is given when asked for. I give it and I leave it at that. It's up to the questioner/advice seeker to take it.


:.That point leads onto my philosophies in advice giving:
1. Advice is given when asked and no time else, unless your friend is about to irritate a black bear, then you should definitely advice your friend to back away and run for his or her life.
2. Advice is not critical, not judgmental, and definitely not biased. Advice is advice and should remain neutral.
3. Advice is to help, not to get 5s on every answer. As a result, my advice ends up being quite blunt and frank with a hint of rambling mixed in.

If you have general questions on the topics I can be a lot of help in (as listed above), most likely, they will be in my FORUM

If it is not, you can inbox me to request me to put it up.

:.If you want to ask me a question directly...
a)if it is not urgent and can wait a week or so, inbox me.
b)if it is an urgent question such as "I'm being eaten by a shark! What do I do???" first of all, I'm quite amazed that you can type while being eaten and second of all, e-mail me at cancel.life@gmail.com. I will answer you by midnight of that day (or if it's 11:55PM, probably by 3PM the following day).

advice

i weigh 165 and i really needa lose more weight than i already have. i'm at a plateau. i dont know what to do. i don't have any more time for exercise.

can you PLEASE help me out?! anything is appreciated. and i know that i have to "maintain a healthy lifestyle" and "eat healthy" but i really need support, help as to what i should eat, or YOUR STORY ON HOW YOU LOST WEIGHT =]]
please!!!!!

Detox diet/fasting = bad idea. It'll just slow down your metabolism and you'll gain all the weight back within 5 days.

Find at least 15min to exercise everyday. 15min!!! Even if it's just watching TV, jog in place. IF you're waiting for something, stand up and wait. There are lots of adjustments you can make that are minor and not time consuming that will burn more calories.

Eating should of course be regulated daily to a healthy meal. Junk food elimination. Eat 5 times a day (or 3 small-medium meals plus 2 healthy snacks in between).

If you go to my forum page (you can go there by going to my page and clicking the link for my forum provided), there should be topics I posted about losing weight.

I think my major weight loss was during the summer after I got my braces. I couldn't eat much stuff so I ended up cutting out like 80% of all junk food. Also I woke up 90% of the time at 6AM and did an hour of exercise that came on TV in the mornings...and if I didn't feel too lazy I too a run (1.5 -3 miles).

I think that the biggest problem with losing weight is that we set too high of a goal and then get discouraged and fall back into bad habits.

What I suggest is to set small goals (like lose 3 pounds in a month)--that way you're more likely to achieve them and feel more motivated to go on to lose more! Don't let a silly plateau break all that hard work you've done so far. Just find 15 minutes every day to take a brisk walk, jog, etc.--even dance around like a maniac!
