Yesterday, I went to the mall with my Mom. I found a really cute skirt, and a top. When I tried it on, my mom insisted that "they were too tight." This happens ALL the time when we go shopping. Every time I try something on, my mom says, "No, its too tight" or "I think you need a bigger size," when I really don't. Something could fit just fine, and she would still insist that it is too small.
So the other day, I started crying, because she never likes ANYTHING that I try on. Then she asked me what was wrong, and I said, "Apparently I'm fat!" And she goes, "Oh no, you're not fat. The clothes just run small."
Mind you, I am a pants size 0, and I weigh 88 pounds. When I was younger, I used to be kind of chubby. I don't know why my mom does this- I'm trying to decide if it's because I really do look fat, or if its because she thinks I look good and doesn't want me to wear tight/revealing clothes. I am very upset, and lately I've been feeling like I don't want to eat. I decided to give up candy, and I fear becoming anorexic. Yet my mom, (who is not thin) continues to encourage me to eat candy.
Should I say something the next time she does this? I am getting really pissed off, and I feel like shouting, "You're just jealous because I'm not fat like you!" at her. (link)

Do you go shopping with your mom because she pays for the clothes? if she's paying then she probably doesn't want to buy you something that she deems inappropriate. How old are you? If you don't like shopping with your mom, go with a girlfriend and get your own clothes. If you do then your mom can't stop you buying what you want. Don't call your mom fat, disrespecting her will just cause you more problems.

I read a book of a diary of Anne Frank it is an autbiography it is about her writing in a diary feeling alone and has lots of fears, & how she was hidin from her home becuase of the war and the germans in the 1940's.. the PROBLEM is I need a song that can sort of relate to her life but i dont have any idea what. So i need HELP with telling me a good song that can relate to her life. This is needed for a project.
Anyways thank you! (link)

Have you taken a look at the songs on the Anne Frank CDs? Take a look around on Amazon or ebay and see if there are any songs that look interesting. You could also try songs of the 1940's, or perhaps someone like Tori Amos?

i was just about to paint my bathroom. does anyone one have any tips? and also should i paint the ceiling before the walls or the other way around? thanks! (link)

I work in a DIY/Decorating store. If you are painting a bathroom make sure you get proper kitchen and bathroom paint, regular emulsion will get wet and peel/flake off after a while. Your best bet is, if you are going over a dark colour or painting for the first time, put a layer of white on everything first and let it dry. If you have any wood, use satinwood or eggshell. Make sure you clean everything with sugar soap before you paint to get rid of any stains/grease. Most of all, use a colour you like! If your bathroom is small, light colours will make it look bigger. Have fun :)

You need some editing software. Windows movie maker is easy to use if you're a beginner, and usually comes installed on every PC. If you want more of a challenge, Final Cut Pro for Mac and Adobe Premier for PC are more challenging software packages, but you can do loads more with them.
Good on you for wanting to make films :)

i need to lose 15 pounds before july is that possible? and if it is ill do anyyyyyyything to get it, healthy or not..preferably healthy but ill do whattttever so any ideas? (link)
|
Yes it is possible, but not if you starve yourself. Starving yourself kicks your body into famine mode and it will store MORE fat because it doesn't know when your next meal is coming.
I've lost 30lbs since January, and I have just been eating fresh fruit and veggies, drinking lots of water and exercising for an hour 5-6 times a week. Swimming is great, cardio (such as running and cycling) are great for weightloss but if you want to tone as well I would try yoga/pilates, and weight training.

I am very overweight and I tried to go on a diet but then I started eating. I can't control myself and I need to get skinny in 3 monthes , I need to lose 30 to 40 pounds! I need it real bad and I don't know what to do in excercize , I know how to eat right though and my mom planned to jog every morning but it isn't enough! I need help! What can I do?? (link)

Try swimming, it's the only exercise that works every muscle in your body. Also, I toned up really quickly with Yoga, Pilates and Tai Chi. I joined a gym in January and have lost 32 lbs!
Good luck :)

how can i loose fat on my ass and upper thys. i know you can't get ride of a direct spot but what workouts can i do to shape up my but. the rest of my body isn't big, just my butt kinda ruins everything (link)
| |
As the previous person said, squats are great for the thigh/butt area. Also, cycling is great, especially uphill, as is walking uphill. This stretches the muscles in the back of your thighs/butt and makes them stronger/smaller. I also go to a gym where they have weight machines designed for this area of your body.
