OK, well, I really want to start losing weight, again. Now, when I did it before, I tried pills, fad diets & aerobics. The only thing that really takes the weight off of me are the strength training exersizes. You know, like the machines they have at curves. Not just aerobics alone. So, my problem is... I really can't afford to join a gym right now. So, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of what I could use at home to tone my muscles while I lose the weight? Thanks.

It's like having a gym in your home - especially if you have a pair of weights, a step, and a stability ball.
I have to analyze poems and write a biography on a poet and i signed up to do Dr. Seuss. the problem with that is I can't find the text anywhere online and i only have one book by him and i have to do 2. if anyone can find me a site with the book or wants to type one up, i'd love them forever!
Why dont you try taking one out of the library? I'd type one out for you, but we gave all of ours to my little cousins.
What are some sad songs that are about dying, like Whiskey Lullaby and Gravedigger?
chemo limo by regina spektor is about a woman who is dying from cancer.
alright. so i am a 13, turning 14 year old girl and i want to have a birthday party. im inviting 20 or so people, girls and boys. what are some fun ideas for something to do.
i just had this big party, and my parents werent to happy about that .. so i think just having a party is out of the deal
If you cant have it at your house just go bowling or do lazer tag or something.
My sister is 11 and in 6th grade. She weighs like 89 pounds. She is about 4 11. She cares about her weight a lot. She thinks shes fat but I've seen her friends and they say she nots and her stomach isnt that big at all. She is also muscular. Like she is a fast runner and she is strong. So do you think she is heavy for her age?? And do you know any ways that she could lose weighgt??
Her BMI is 18. A BMI is your body mass index. It lets you know if you weigh too much/little for you height. You shouldn't rely on it 100% though because as other people said, muscle weighs more than fat, and there are body builders that weigh 200 lbs and also obese people that weigh 200 lbs who are the same height. So anyway, I went to http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/bmi/calc-bmi.htm and calculated her BMI. Below 18.5 is underweight. So, your sister really has nothing to worry about. I'd reccomend showing her that website, then maybe she'll believe you and her friends.
i want to make my house scary this year for halloween. i dont want it to look cheesy cause thats gay. but i am on a budget. so if anyone has ideas on what i could make that would be scary and how to make it that would be great. its for my yard, any projections that i could do, and props that look scary or anything. just start giving me ideas if you can. i will rate 5 if its really creative and easy to make. thanks.
Something cool is you replace your regular lightbulbs with green ones. they make it seem really spooky. Also, get someone to dress up as like a scarecrow or frankenstein and make them look really fake. Then put the bowl of candy in their lap. Just tell the kids to get it from there, and when they take one, the guy can yell "boo!" its really scary, especially to little kids and if you make the person look really fake by hiding their hands and stuff.
Okay so i like this guy and he came over tonight with 2 of my other friends. and they left early and it was just me and him alone. but he didnt even try to kiss me. How do you like you all of a sudden start making out. i mean what do you just out of no where start kissing i mean. what are some ways if your siting close to get him to kiss you.
The guy might not be aware you like him. try out of nowhere asking him a question like "So, do you ever think a relationship between us would work?" Maybe he'll get the hint. And if you're not ready for that or if she just sorta shrugs his shoulders, when he leaves just give him a hug and tell him you had a really nice time. Maybe after a few more get togethers, he'll come to you.
how can i host a good halloween party?! i rate 5's thanks
Have lots of food. Try looking up "Halloween Recipes" on google. Have games and stuff like pin the eyeball on the zombie or something like that and rent a few horror movies. Also, get some cards or something in case some people just feel like chilling. Just put them in plain sight so if someone doesn't feel like watching a movie they can play solitaire or something lol. (My friend had some cards on the bar at her party and me and a few of my friends played BS for like an hour! haha it was fun.) Then have a costume judging contest at the end.
ok , i like this guy . he knows im there but where not friends . he's talk to me but not real conversations . he is sort of a smart ass with really good jokes and sarcasim but i still like him . saying oh ilove you is someting he would laugh at . i need to become cool to him then get into the i like you stuff . any suggestions ?
Ask for his phone number or if you're more comfortable with it his aim screen name. Then just talk. Talk to him about anything, and you guys will get close. Or, if you have mutual friends invite everyone over for movies or a party or just organize a get together to go to the mall or something. Also, ask his friends what he likes.
Do you know a romantic way to ask someone out and to a dance?

Why don't you try doing like a "scavenger hunt" type thing? Or, you could leave a present (like flowers or candy) and a note in her locker every day saying something you like about her, like first the 5th thing you like most, then the 4th thing you like most, until you're at the first and then you could put. "And the thing I like most about you is..." And then ask her to meet you somewhere like afterschool or something. Then just give her a bunch of flowers and ask her. I know I would love it if a guy did this for me.
so yeah this might be a long story so apologies in advance xx
ma best boy mate *bob* told me that he was bisexual and he also told him best male friend *fred*. ... btw he hasnt told his family because he dad is extremely (sp?) homophobic aslo fred is really homophobic, he hates bob for it but i cant see a problem. but why do i feel so heartbroken? i mean me and bob are very close friends and we talk about anything. i burst into tears. but i have a huuuge crush on fred :| and i had to tell bob. i was going to get with fred at a party on monday. i just feel so stuck in the middle, bob hates fred and never wants to speak to him again, but i like fred.
what should i do?
-stuck in the middle :(

Try to make Fred understand that Bob is still the same person no matter what his sexual orientation. And if Fred says he's afraid Bob's going to get a crush on him or something stupid like that just because Bob likes guys, ask Fred if he crushes on every single girl he sees. When he says no, tell him that the same goes for someone who is bisexual, and that he probably isn't bob's type anyway.
where can i go to make my pictures smaller on the computer so i can put them on my myspace? i dont have paint so that wont work..
first upload them on photobucket then go to edit. And resize them 75% or 50% or whatever you want.
This is probably a dumb question but so be it.
This evening, my left wrist is swollen on the outside, very painful to the touch, and slightly painful from movement. I don't remember falling on it, hitting it, or anything that might cause it to act this way, I honestly don't.
Has anybody ever had this happen to them/have half a clue as to what it might be? Also, is there anything I can do to reduce the pain and swelling? (Ice doesn't seem to be doing the trick)
I would definitely get it checked. In fact, I'd advise you to go to more than one doctor. Different situation, but I hurt my knee awhile back and we went to a few different doctors but it wasn't until like the 3rd one and the 4th month after the injury that we found out what was ACTUALLY wrong with it and figured out how to stop it. You might want to ask your doctorabout getting an Xray and/or an MRI also, if turns out somethings really wrong.
Hey. I'm 13/m and I accept none of that "teenagers don't know love" crap. Maybe most teenagers don't, but I'm not most teenagers. I had a friend from science class. Long story short, over the summer, I realized that I loved her, I told her, she didn't love me back, I experienced The Void, and pretty much every new true emotion, I couldn't get her out of my head, and then when school started, things were awkward. I can't think of any other way to describe it. It just felt awkward. Anyway, I talked to her about that yesterday, and she agreed. So now we just forgot anything ever happened and we're back as regular friends now. I had felt like crap for a really long time, and I seemed to screw absolutely everything up. Well, now that all this pressure is off of me, I feel a lot better and I'm back to my regular happy goofy self again. Which is good. Except I feel strangely empty inside. Just a tiny pit of blackness in my happy heart. It feels nothing like The Void at all. Just... emptiness. Why? What is it? What's all this about? Thanks in advance...
By the way, here are my standards on your answers: I will NOT always rate a 5, I will rate whatever I find appropriate. I will not always rate anyway, but I will try. I will not hesitate to give you a 1 or report you, I have been responsible for a number of permanent bans. So no smartass answers. And just a matter of personal interest, try to use proper grammar. Please.
I know what you mean. When I see this guy who rejected me for someone else I always kinda feel a twinge. I figure it's because in your mind you've devoted so much time to thinking about them and learning their hobbies and favorite colors and things like that then one day it all ends and you stop thinking of them when you pick out your clothes or when you eat their favorite ice cream, Just stop cold turkey. I guess all the time you've devoted to them just gets sucked into this sort of black hole of emotional depression (AKA The Void I suppose). And stuff. I mean, that's how it was for me. That blackhole for me now is barely a pinpoint. I really haven't had any other "crushes" or whatever since this guy but I've gotten way more involved in my friends and people who really care about me. So yeah. Just concentrate on the things you do for you and the people who really love you.
Hi. Well, I was wondering-what types of clothes does the store H&M sell? I mean, do they see causal clothes, formal clothes, or both? Also, is their clothes good and could you please tell me the price ranges of the clothes and accessorie (i.e.-jeans from $25-$40 or something like that), and also tell me if they have good prices. Also, could you guys tell me if and when they have sales. Thanks!
h&m is one of my favorite stores. :) They sell both casual and formal. I find their clothes to be very sophisticated and basic -- very stylish right now. I like them a lot because they're not trendy, but classy. An usual thing about the store is they organize it by color. Their clothes are incredibly cheap for the quality. I've never bought a pair of jeans there, but not on sale they're about $30-40. I was in there with my friend last week though and they had a 1/2 off sale on jeans. Overall, I would highly reccomend the store. Its kind of like big city fashion, except really really cheap.
What do you think is better to get? An ipod or another mp3 player. I heard that a zen micro is really good. Does anyone have them? What is the advantage and do you enjoy using it. Or does anyone else have something different that they think is better?
Contrary to what another person said, I find my ipod battery lasts quite long. I have a mini. For me, it's really convenient, itunes is very easy. One advantage of using an iPod and iTunes is subscribing to podcasts and putting them on your mp3 device is easier and theres a whole section for them on your iPod and everything. Of course, theres iPodder and everything now. But yeah. DONT get a playstation 3 for a music player. It will only hold like 20 songs or something, and thats if you use it exclusively as an mp3 player.
Everyone I know has an iPod, I know a few people with the hp mp3 players but iPod people are a lot more enthusiastic about their players. plus, an iPod comes with a year warranty and theres a bunch of cool accessories and add ons that you can buy.
So personally, I'd reccemend an iPod, but I haven't really had any experience with other mp3 players. However, if one player is a bit better than another, I suspect it is marginal.
I live with one of my best friends in a 2 bedroom apartment. She got a cat before we moved in, but after a month or so I noticed that my eyes were hurting and i can never wear my contacts anymore. Come to find out, i'm allergic to her cat. She keeps it in her bedroom while she is not home, but then she takes her out and she is free to roam anywhere except my room. It still isn't working with her keeping the cat in her room. How can i tell her that my allergy is becmoing quite painful and i cant stand to have the cat around anymore?
Well, you have three options:
1) Move out.
2) Learn to live with the problem.
3) Ask your friend to get rid of the cat.
I'd try them in reverse order.
I need big time Help with this...Im trying to h0ok my pictures up 2 the computer and i just dont know how...I do have the cords if that helps...plz respond A.S.A.P!!!Thankz!! Ill rate you guys!
Well, what type of camera do you have? if you have a kodak or something i can help you, as i've had several. first, look at the cords and try to find one that will plug into the camera. (you may have to open where the picture cartrige goes) once you've done that, take the other end and look in the back of you computer where all the wires go. (unless you have a laptop or something, then obviously look at the side.) look for one to insert your wire into. (Try not to unplug anything! Unless it's not too important like your scanner or printer or something.) Also, some computers have openings in the front to insert your picture cartrige into. So, take out the picture cartridge, and check for an opening it might fit into. (Don't force ANYTHING too much!)
have any of you downloaded any movies from limewire.. does it work and does it give you viruses?
I've dled movies from limewire but most of them are either: a)crappy quality or b)need an old type codec because they're hacked from windows media.
however, you CAN download this DivX player thingy that will give you pretty much all the codecs you need for DivX (aka XviD) hacked movies. And if that doesn't work or you don't want to download that whole thing, there's this program called Gspot Codec Information Appliance (um. hah.) that when you run it and show it the file thats missing a codec, it will tell you the name of the codec you need. (And then you can do a google search on it to find where to dl it.)
(btw i've never gotten a virus, but my dad is really paranoid and has like 567320462 anti virus software thingys on my computer so yeah.)
I went over to my boyfriend's house yesterday and everything was great except for when he was out working he said something about manpower and I (jokingly) said "where?" He didn't realize I was joking and we got in a fight about it. I told him I didn't mean it and I was joking and everything, but when we were on the phone later he said even though I said I was joking and swore to it that he still took it seriously and it really hurt him. (He works alot and he doesn't have a great homelife.)
So today he called me and we were gonna go to the mall with my friend and her crush even though he was supposed to watch a race with his dad at 6. When I got off the phone with him to go up the street to my friends to ask if we had a ride he called me back and said he couldn't go. Later, after calling his house phone and finding out his line was disconnected I called his cell phone and he said that he couldn't go because he was grounded because when his dad said he wouldn't take him to the mall he went off on him. Now his line is disconnected and I'm not allowed to come over or anything.
The thing is, I think Justin's still a little mad about what I said yesterday. He's acting different and upset or sad or something. I don't know what to do about it, because when I ask him what's wrong he'll just say nothing. I feel so bad about what I said and it's really getting to me that he's not acting the same. Anyone have any advice on what to do or such? Thanks, sorry this is long but I will rate all answers!
Something else is probably bothering, and your comment just set it off. Don't worry, it's probably not your fault. Try letting him stew for awhile and try talking to him again, maybe he'll let you know what's up. But don't push him to talk about his "feelings." He might think you don't take him seriously or think he's a wuss or something.
