wanting to get my bellybutton pierced. I really liked your advice. I should like my tummy before I add extra. But, what are things I can do, and like, stuff I should eat [I don't really eat that much] to help me lose weight? Like, I want to lose my tummy, but, I kinda want to keep my butt, and like, my thighs, because my boyfriend is pretty fond of them, and I kinda am too, and, I dunno, I just wanna keep them, so, will excersizing like, running and stuff, and dieting like, make them go away? I don't want to lose weight, and have a nice flat tummy and stuff, but then have like, no curves lol. Thanks! :] (link)

Ok well any sort of cardio will burn calories and help you loose weight, but if you are not looking for weight loss I would recommend this.
Focus mainly on your core( this is your upper and lower abs, along with your obliques) Not only will this tone your abs, but build up strengh becuase your core is your main source of power. If you belong to a gym like LIFETIME or other sport clubs, there is a section of free weights designed for your abs. I would give that a try. If you don't belong to a gym don't worrie. There are plently of ways to still get a good toning workout. I would possibly google core toning. This way you will find excersises that don't focus directly on one area and neglect the others.
I would also say that to achieve results you might wanna still do cardio of some sort. Maybe a jog or workout video. This will get your body warm before you tone.
As for the diet, I would just continue eating a healthy balanced diet. Its common sense that if you are trying to work on your body and still eating fatty foods, you will not accomplish anything. I went to a heath foods store and found meals that I could eat everyday that. I eat a cereal each moring that fills me up and is good for you. Also make attention to the labels. Sure it might only say that the bag of chips has 100 calories, but if there are 3 serving sizes within the bag, it then turns into 300 calories.
I believe that if you focus on your core, along with some smaller cardio, watch what you eat and try to cut out the unnessary calories(pop: so many calories and actually really easy to give up) you should be able to achieve results.
Also don't fret if you don't see result right away. How it works is by loosing weight, and toning your abs, thats when it will show.
I hoped this helped and best of luck! I know you will do great. Message me back if you have any more questions, I would love to help!

I didn't know if this was the right subject, but, I want to get my bellybutton pierced, but I'm kinda squishy on the tummy. Do you think it would look really bad? I'm planning on losing weight, but, I was just wondering like, for now would it look too bad? Thanks! (link)
|
Here is what I did. I had also been wanted to get mine pierced but was also not totally loving my belly. Since I knew that I would be under the age of 18 when I got it done, I mentioned the idea to my mom and said, "If I lose some weight and feel good about myself, will you take me to get my bellybutton pierced?" She agreed and I started to work out and started to see results. I felt good about how my tummy looked and got it done and LOVE IT.
Now, I want you to LOVE your bellybutton piercing also, and I think you need to like the way you look before you can add the extra. I personaly think that anyone can get it done and make it look good and I bet you can, but I don't want you to get it done and hate it becuase you are not in love with your tummy in the first place.
Maybe you can do what I did, use it as modivation.
I hope it helped and I wish you the best of luck!

Hi..... My name is Sydney and I got a question. I am 13 years old and I need to lay in the tanning bed. I go to this place called tanic tan and it's really cool... but I would really like it if you would tell me some good tanning lotion and stuff.... oh and can me laying in the tanning bed at this age effect my having children in the future... i lay about 10 minutes 4 times a week. THANKS!~!~! (link)
|
Tanning lotion does dramaticly help, and I would advise you to ask the workers at your tanning place to recomend a good lotion for you. There are many out there to choose from! Also is there a reason why you are tanning ( vacation) or do you just like being tan. Either way I personaly think that 4 times a week is a little much. I would tone it down to possibly once a week, you will still see the same results. You also have to take into consideration which bed you are using. Each bed will give differnt outcomes.
You can go tanning and still have children! Don't worrie about it there is no link between the two that should cause you to worrie.
I hope this helped and message me if you still have questions, Best of luck!

ummm i was wondering how do i get hair removed from down below((15/f)) what can i use ??? and without the itching sensation?? SORRY IF ITS THE WRONG CATEGORY BUT PLEASE HELP (link)
|
Well most women shave to remove the hair. I find this is quickest and least expenisve. The only downside is becuase you are only removing the hair at the surface of the skin, the hair will more than likely grow back quicker. There is also the fear of rasor burn. This can be advoided by using good razor. Also applying lotion on after can stop the itching.
Another route you can go is waxing. This is more expensive. I would say around $60 for a brazilian. This may also sound more painful, but it depends on your pain tolarence. If you have ever gotten your eyebrows or anything else waxed you would know the pain in waxing. The good thing about waxing is that the hair is directly removed and will take longer to grow back leaving you hairless longer.
There are also hair- removal products but I personaly don't recommend them
I hope this helped and good luck!
|
i usually shave my pubic hair every so often but it hurts when i shave it.
then when it starts to grow back it gets itchy.
does nair work?
[15/f] (link)
| |
I personally vomit everytime I smell nair, so I have never experienced the side effects. If you are looking for an alternate way to remove pubic hair I would go with waxing. Though when starting off I would do a bikini becuase it is less hair removal and you can get the hang of the process. When you become more known with waxing I would move up to the brazillian. At least that is what I did, and I love not having to worry about "down there" for a week or more!
|
|
is it possible to get an abortion without your parents knowing in any wayy? and what are the side effects of getting an abortion? thanks so much. (link)
|
If there is a teen clinic near your area I would stop in there and ask. They would know the best and can help you cope.
By the way fellow advice givers, this is an advice site, which means that the person should not be scoulded for their actions. Just because you believe that abortions are wrong does not give you the right to peach to others.
I really hope everything works out for the best.

i have a problem, well actually two. so i need some advice asap.
one: with my skin i am prone to get ingrown hairs, VERY easily. it scars and doesn't look very appealing. i dont want this guy to get the wrong idea, its just on my bikini line though. im afraid to shave cus if i do everything ill have ingrown hairs all over down there. so i dont know what to do?!
two: i've been with a two guys before just fingering, and it was abosulutely unpleasurable. i got nothing out of it. and i want to get wiht the guy i like, but i dont want nothing to happen, again..
so if anyone has any ideas on what to do//whats wrong. please let me know.. (link)
|
Ok the first one: I don't know if this would make a diffence by waxing? Or ask a professional to get their advice on the best method.
the second from my experience, each guy has totally differnt fingering methods I guess you can call it. Just relax and let him work( wow that sounded really dirty when not ment to) and hey if you still don't find it pleasurable, you can change things up.

okay, i'm getting married this week. and i just started my period. well, i don't want to "ruin" the romantic part of our wedding night with my period and everything. so, i'm wondering if i take a hot shower or bath, how long will that stop my period? we though about having a hot bubble bath together, would be period stop for that? thanks. (link)

From what I heard from the Bible( COSMO), women are most horney when they have their peroid, and the act also helps eases cramps and pains. They mentioned that there is also a device makes a women able to have sexual intercourse while on her period with out taking risky pills or drugs. I would talk to your doctor about this and other solutions, because they would know the most. And CONGRATS on the Marriage!

i have a very red face so i NEED to wear foundation ivwe tried cover girl, revlon, and maybeleen.the problem is i sweat like crazy, so is there ne sweat or waterproof foundation that might work for me?? (link)
|
Are you using liquid foundation? If so, I would recommmend trying a pressed powder, or a powder in general. I use StudioFix pressed foundation from MAC and I LOVE IT, its also a plus becuase at department stores they can match your skin tone compared to just guessing. MAC is going to be more expensive, but it will also last for a long amount of time, and unlike liquid, its fresher and lighter to wear. Another good brand that a lot of my friends swear by is BereMinerals. This is a mineral based line( you can practly sleep in this make-up and cause no skin damage) They have all differnt products, and like MAC, you can also get tested for your skin tone. Unfortantly, there is no MAGIC foundation that is sweat or waterproof, but if you have a good foundation to start, I think that would make all the difference.

Do you recommend waxing your upper lip? (link)
| |
I agree, Waxing will be for logical for that area, but also keep in mind that along with other waxings, you need to keep it up. The hairs will always come back, and somtimes darker. If this is a task you are willing to keep up, then I say go ahead.

i just asked that question below but i just found out hes going out with this girl but his friends say he likes me i just want to tell him but idk how nd i miss him more than anything (link)
|
ah i'm sorry! gosh! Men are the worst! I would still ask him what is going on. Thats the best advice i can give you at the time, sorry! Just gather confidence and either call him or in person, i think would be best. and just talk, try to just calm yourself down, and remember hes just a guy, you don't have to be afraid.
I know you can do it!

i like most of delia's clothes (mainly their screen tees and such). what are some other stores that carry modest clothing that is cute and sort of the same style? i'm not looking for "preppy" stores like abercrombie, hollister, or ae. (link)
| |
I don't know if anyone would agree but you can find some cute- non preppy clothing at even department stores. Normstrams has really cool non-preppy items. Along with other department stores. Just beware, they are more expensive depending on the brand, but they are great quality.

ok so i recently broke up with my boyfriend of 9 months. im only 13 and i dont know if im truly in love with the guy or not. i can't stop thinking aobut him but all my friends think i hate him but i dont. i really want him back but it would make alot of things worse. i cry alot becuase i really did care about him but i have no idea if he cared for me and i really miss him alot. whenever i see him it makes me miss him more. i can be stnding right next to him and miss him so much. so the other day at party he was there nd he kept looking at me with this sad face then turning away when i saw him what does that mean? when i left that party i felt like i walked away with any chance of letting him kno that i liked him. when we broke up i cried so hard and i still do he was my best friend and he just meant everythin to me. how do i get over him?
sry that didn't make alot of sense
thanks for the help (link)
|
Ah i'm sorry hun! Break-ups are the worst, expecially when you loose a good friend along with it. Well the tought of him will stay for a while, because you are so used to him being there. I think the best thing for you to get over him is to find some closure. Try talking with him, ask as a friend what went wrong, and express both views/sides. Let him talk, if he wants and then express how you are feeling at the moment. Remember by holding in these feeling, its not letting him see or feel them. Men arn't mind readers! ( even though I wish they were, life would be so much easier!lol). Once you are done expressing what you have to say, then you have to realize that is all you can do, becuase it's like a game of tennis- He breaks up with you ( ball is in your court)Now you are sitting here upset and sad, and confused on what to do. So like the game of tennis, hit it back. Ask questions! Its ok to, and its ok to let him know how you are feeling. Once you have done that, its all you can truely do untill he makes the next move. Be pacitent though, guys tend to be slow when it comes to feelings.
Best of luck, and I hope you feel better.
Oh and ways to get over him: ICECREAM allways does the trick, and just having a girls night, which incluses movies, snacks, and pampering!

ok so you know me but im not going to tell you who i am. So theres this kid thats been my best friend for a couple of years now. We've dated once before, about a year ago. I can honestly say its the only time in the past 4 or 5 years that ive TRUELY been happy. Whenever he gets a new g/f i get soooo upset that i cry. He knows i still have feelings for him and when i ask him if there might be a chance for us again he says, "no clue, but right now no." I try and tell myself to get over him because im wasting my life but theres just something about him i cant get over. What do i do? Do i forget about him? Do i wiat? I havent had feelings for anyone besides him in like a year and a half. And whenever i think i do, i always end up pushing that person away. Because i think as soon as i get close to someone else, he will start to like me and ill lose my chance. HELP ME MADISON GRACE! please, thank you, and i love you. (link)

hard situation dear,
I agree with you on wanting to move on, thats the only healthy thing to do. I wouldn't wait for him to come around, becuase knowing guys, the are VERY slow with realizing thing. Don't wait, if I were you, I would try as hard as I can to do things that take my mind off of this guy. Hang out with friends, good music help
I understand him not giving you a straight reply, becuase the future can't be told this early on. You might end up going out agian, and then you might not. I don't think he wants to hurt your feelings saying yes, or no. As for forgetting him, I honeslty don't think that anyone forget a speical someone. You won't forget him no matter how hard you try. With pushing the other guys away, i would try giving them a try, as hard as it is. You need to tell yourself that you and this other guy are over at the time, and you deserve to date other guys, you owe it to yourself. When it comes time to dating other guys, you can't compare them to the other guy, because no 2 guys are the same, and you will get no where if you always compare. Take the risk of actually liking another guy!

ok so im going out with this amzing guy but i have lost some rly good friends becuase of this. everyone says i should date someone else and tell me stuff that he likes someone else but when i ask him he ALWAYS says no thats not true and i dont kno if hes lieing or not...should i stick with him or no? (link)
|
Well if you have any reason to question him, then there must be a good reason to. I'm sorry to hear that you have lost some good friends. Was it becuase you were allways hanging out with him, or becuase they didn't want to be with you while you are dating him? Either way, I think I would first try and mend your problems with your good friends. They will be there till the end, and unfortantly the guy wont. With them telling you that you should date someone else, it might be becuase maybe they know some info about your guy that you don't know, and don't want to see you get hurt. I don't think they would just go around and say the guy isn't right for you, if it wasn't for a good reason. Ask them about it, and try to listen to their reasoning, and then inform them on all the good things about him. They might only be noticing the bad things, so tell them the good. If there is no good, well then obv. you shouldn't be with him.
When it comes down to it, you have to listen to your heart. You friends can give advice or their own say in the situation, but you need to make the finial call. Try weighing the pros and cons on the relationship. Or list the good and bad things about the guy.
Best of luck!

Hey Maddy...ok u know me but w/e i'm staying anonymous. My problem is that I have a guy that I met on New Years and we've hooked up a couple of times and even done things more than make out but we only get really close when we're alone and if we're around our friends(we share the same circle of friends) he shows no emotion towards me. But I really really really like this kid sooooo effing much! But I'm afraid he's just using me. And now for the real problem I found out another kid likes me and I like him too! This person is so sweet and we have so much in common, but I have a lot of things in common with the first person as well. So what do I do?!?! Do I find out if the first person likes me and then go for him or the second guy? (link)
|
First of all, If I were you, I would want to find out if this guy was using me. Next time your with him, ask him questions about how he really feels about you etc. Make him feel same, and unworthy. If he turns out to be genuine... then I think you should stick with him. If he turns out that hes a jerk, I would go with the second guy.
Either way, I would try and get to know both guys better, expecially the 2nd guy, becuase things might not allways work out with the 1st guy, and you don't want to push away the relationship you had with the 2nd guy.
Hope I helped

hi, i'm 16 and i have a brother who is 14. I got this from a friend. I don't think you know me, because i don't know you, but I have a question. I have read your advice to other people and you seem to be good at it so i thought i'd give it a shot. my problem is, is that my parents fight CONSTENTLY(I don't know if thats spelled right?)! It's to the point where my brother and i just want them to get divorced. We can't take it anymore. They don't want to because they think it would be better for us if they stayed together but the thing is, is it not. It just makes us all unhappy ALL the time. I don't know what to do. Can you help? (link)
|
Well I'm sorry that your going through this hard situation.
Have you tried talking to your parents about how you and your brother feel? If not I would tell them, not only to express how you are feelings, but you show them how their fighting is affecting you.
Divorce is not really an easy way out, alot of the time it can be very messy and stressfull. It might seem like the best option at the moment, but might not seem so in the future with all the court orders, and switching familys, and splitting holidays etc.
But I would for sure talk to your parents about this, let them know how this is affecting you, and others.
I hope I have helped in any way. Best wishes!

hey beaton! okay well here's my problem: so i have this great boyfriend who treats me very well but something is missing and i cant help but think of another guy! so i have this guy friend who im like BEST friends with! we love the same things and i can talk to him about everything and anything! he understands me and i understand him! i love our friendship and i cherish it very much but i cant help but want there to be something more between us! i really do think we would be amazing together! and i can HONESTLY say that i really do love him!!!!!!
whenever he tells me about other girls he thinks are hott and the first time he saw boobs (a couple of days ago, lol) i cant help but get jealous! i mean why cant he just like me like that and be interested in having a relationship with me! once a while ago i told him that i used to like him and all he said was, oh thats why you would always ask me about _________ (ex gf)! thats ALL he said! nothing else! im pretty sure he doesnt like me the same way i like him but i really want something to happen between us! i really do love him! and i know if that doesnt work out between us we will always be friends! nothing could come between us! i love him! (link)
|
I must say starting a relationship with a guy friend can be pretty tricky.. so just heads up.
Becuase you have a boyfriend, this makes the situation even harder to work with. You don't want to dump your boyfriend for something you dont know for sure can/will happen.
If I were you, I would keep it low, try the little things to get the one guy to notice you, without cheeting or feel like you are cheeting on your boyfriend. You never know, maybe he just wishes to become friends, maybe more. Just let fate take it part.
I hope everything works out for you.
