I've noticed that sometimes when I can't fall asleep and I get very few hours of rest,I don't have any problems the next day.Then,other times I'll get enough/a lot of sleep and I'll end up feeling drowsy and sluggish all day.Could someone explain this?
People don't need many hours of sleep to function normal. In fact, the longer you sleep, the more drowsy and sluggish you will feel all day because you overslept. The ideal amount of hours to sleep is 9 hours and 15 minutes. Also, when you sleep longer, your body goes into a deeper sleep, making it harder to wake up fully -- and when you don't get as much sleep, it's not as hard to wake up because your body isn't in a deep state of sleep.

soo the morning after pill thingy.. does that COMPLETELY get rid of the chance of being pregnant? in other words it gets rid of the "baby" no doubt?
If you take it within the 72 hours of having sex where you got sperm in you, I believe it is 99% effective. The sooner you take the pill after the sperm is in you, the more effective it is.

I am a 14 year old female and i have had stretch marks for a few years now. Me and my boyfriend are going to get serious ( more than we alreay have) soon and I want to get rid of them. i am over weight and i am trying to loose but the only thing that will make me happy is getting rid of the stretch marks. can anybody give me some tips on how to get rid of them? I am not goion to pay alot of money for creams and stuff but I still need help.
Stretch marks will never completely go away, they will only fade until they are a silvery color. Use vitamin E cream. It's only like 2 dollars or you can buy vitamin E tablets and break them open and put the oil where the marks are. Cocoa butter is another option, but vitamin E works quicker.

I have my big winter dance coming up on February 3rd. I am a 15 year old female, 5'5 and 163 pounds. I desperatly need to lose weight. Here are my problems:
-I love to eat
-I eat wayy too much
-I don't have enough time to excersize a lot
-I drink 1-2 sodas a day
I have 45 days to get into shape. I'd like to lose 30-40 pounds.
Here's what I'm looking for:
-Pills
-Drinks
-Powders
that speed up matabalism or just make me lose weight all together.
Most of you will say, "Don't use those things, just excercise and eat right." Yeah well being heavy runs in my family and I've tried the excercise and eat right thing and I'm just not getting the results I want.
What I'm looking for from you:
- Specific brands of pills, drinks, or powders
- Maybe even different types of excersies
Thank you so much!
I have a few tips and facts for you:
1. Pills are a terrible idea. They will work short term but as soon as you stop taking them, you will put all the weight back on and then some.
2. Eliminating ALL soda, you will lose 15 pounds over a one year period by just doing that.
3. Eat breakfast EVERY morning. Try eating maybe a yogurt, apple, cereals with not alot of sugar in them.
4. For snacks, try eating fruits and vegetables instead of sugars.
5. Portion your meals. When you eat spaghetti, put it in a one cup measuring cup. Try portioning all of your meals so you don't over eat. If you feel like you are going to over it, ruin your food. Pour water into it or something like that. It will make you not want to eat anymore of it.
6. Powders aren't good for you either, they require a vast amount of water to be consumed and if you don't drink enough water, you can really screw up your kidneys/liver.
7. Drink alot of water. It will make you feel full when you are eating and drinking water.
8. The majority of the time when you feel hungry, you are actually thirsty so try drinking water.
9. It takes 20 minutes for your brain to tell you that you are full so eat slowly.
Since you don't have alot of time for exercising, run up and down your steps like 5-10 times a day, back and forth.
Good luck!

now this isn't for weight loss or anything. i am in pretty good shape. but i was wondering if it's possible to pull a muscle in your stomach. because if i stretch, like tilt my back back, i can't because it hurts soooooo bad. it's not cramps or anything. so i was wondering if i did pull it, how can i like make it better pretty much, and if it's not what is it and how can i make it better
You can pull pretty much any muscle in your body. It is possible you pulled your stomach muscle. The best thing to do when you pull a muscle is not to stretch it anymore, lay a hot pack or hot cloth on it, and put some icy hot on it. It will go away eventually just don't do anything that would exacerbate the sprain.

whats a good and affective exercise that can target "love handles"? haha thanks.
I do Windsor Pilates. I feel that they are the most effective way of flattening and toning body parts. They target the obliques a.k.a "love handles" and flatten them down. You can order them offline or at an exercise store.

my knee hurts all the time. i've been to the doctor and i got Xrays. but he said there was nothing wroung with it and it might be athritis. but i couldnt take a test because i had my period and i never went back. but now latly, i cant even walk it hurts so bad. i take aleav, it works but for only an hour. everytime i get up i get the worst pain. how would i know if i had athritis?
Depending how old you are, your knee pains may be "growing pains". My knees were hurting me so bad and I went to the doctors, got x rays, etc. Nothing showed up. The doctor told me it was probably growing pains. If you are past the age of like 20, you may have athritis. If I were you, I would go back to the doctor and get the test done and tell him how bad it hurts. It may be athritis or it may even be something completely different.

ok so im about 5'3" and i weigh like 137 lbs. im a little overweight and i wanna loose 15-20 lbs and i was wondering if drinking a lot of water will make me loose weight. i also do exercise and my eating habits are pretty good. if water does make you loose weight about how many glasses should i drink a day?
My doctor told me I have to drink 12 glasses of water a day (I have low blood pressure). As I am continually drinking water, I don't feel hungry and when I do eat, I don't eat as much. I've lost 7 pounds over the last month by just drinking alot of water. Its also good for your whole body and your complexion. They recommend drinking 8 glasses a day, but I drink five 20 oz bottles of water a day.

okay,i love my boyfriend to death and would do anything for him.but he drinks,dips,and smokes and i hate it.what i hate the most is that he tries to lie about it to me and it pisses me off. he wont do anything when im around him so im not worried about him pressuring me into doing it.but im worried about him getting caught,hurt,or in any kind of trouble.so my question is what can i say to make him stop?
Tell him how it makes you feel and that it worries you. Remind him that he could get caught and in alot of trouble, especially for drinking. If he truly loves you, he will stop and if he can't make that sacrifice then clearly he isn't the one for you.

13/f, my grandmother used to be okay, never used to get into my way, always feeding us, and helping us. I went to this award banquet, and she didn't like what I was wearing. When she described what I should wear, it was a wedding dress. I explained that for this occasion, you just wear simple things, but she didn't listen. I went the way I looked anyhow. Everyone who passed us, she would say, you see how that person has that... and other what nonsense. She said how my breasts were sticking out. Bra or no bra, of course it would show, I have breasts, wouldn't the shape and size of it show? Now for graduation, she's forcing to dress up in some wedding gown thing. My mom had to tell her no. My grandmother thinks that I'm dressing the wrong way. What's her problem?
She's being like that because when she was growing up, all the girls wore dresses down to there ankels. She is just stuck in time. Tell her that that's how girls dress now a days and the fashions have changed. I wouldn't let it bother you though.

So im 15/f and i so far have never took any chances! Ive never even kisseda boy for crying out loud becuase i am scared. I think my parentals made me this way. Anyways All my friends ONCE in awhile get together and drink. Now i dont want any rude comments but would it be all that bad to try it once? I am sick of being called the good girl, or princess! I meen i wouldnt get attatched to it would i? Is it as bad as grown ups make it seem?
If alcoholism runs in your family, I definitely wouldn't drink. That's why I don't drink. Also, it's not fun. Drinking alcohol, which for one tastes disgusting, then getting wasted so you act like a complete idiot..What's the fun in that? It is as bad as they make it seem. If you are at a party where underage drinking is and that party gets busted you are going to be in trouble, even if you didn't even have a sip of alcohol.

yesterday a guy friend i have said i look like im Swedish. i don't know what swedish people look like so i dont know if that's a compliment or not? i'm really italian not swedish. so what features to polish people have? and when he said i look like im swedish is that a good thing or is it bad? are swedish people ugly and what features do they have for example like blue eyes? HELP.
Polish people ALL look different. They could have blue eyes or brown eyes. My friend looks italian but she is 100% Polish. It's weird, because my boyfriend is Polish and he doesn't look italian. I don't know, alot of people are polish so I don't think it's an insult.

i have only had sex once in my life and my bf came over yesterday and he fingered me and i woke up with this bump on my vagina what dose this mean.
Is it inside or out? Also, are you sure he is clean of any STD's. It could be an STD. Does it hurt? If I were you, I would go to a doctor about it if it doesn't go away within a week.

what is the most fastest and healthy way to enlarge my penis?
There is no fast and healthy way. They have pills to stimulate blood flow, but they only last for a few hours. You are stuck with what you have.

well my boyfriend is having a birthday party in a while and there will be a ton of people there. But its at his house so his mom and dad will be there. I want to look good but i also dont want to look all slutty so any ideas of what to wear?
thanks,
Katie
[by the way im 13/f]
Wear a cute skirt or capris and a tanktop (if it's warm out), other wise just a cute shirt. You shouldn't wear high heels, just wear like flip flops or something.

i have a boyfriend, lets call him [ X ] and my bestfriend is telling me she really likes this other guy, lets call him [ A ]. but everytime i'm hanging out with my bf X and my bestfriend, she's always flirting with him. and i think she might like him, but i dunno how to tell her to just stop w/o hurting her feelings.
anyone have any advice for a nice way to say "stop flirting with my bf!"
please and thank you.
Say something like, 'I thought you liked A. And she'll say 'yea, I do why?' Then you say 'Well it seems like you are always flirting with X and it kind of bothers me'. Tell him that it bothers you too so he won't flirt back with her. You kind of have to be straight forward with these things or else she won't know what she is doing is wrong.

okay well i want to give my boyfriend a BJ
but we have no way to get comdoms
and i would rather do it without one
and like we are both virgins. b.c we have known eachother since we were like 11 we are both 14
so with us both being virgins and not having no kinda sex with anyone just you know kissing each other
can i get a mouth infection giving him oral without a comdom?
No, unless he has a STD. But, I doubt he does considering he's a virgin. Have fun and be safe.

Well, about 4 minutes ago, all of a sudden I got a sharp pain in my stomach, & now it is still there. If I touch my stomach it gets worse. It's not like a pukey kind of pain, its like someone shot it. It hurts so bad. I have two questions:
1. What would be the cause of this?
2. How can I get rid of it? FAST!
It's either gas or acid. Were you drinking alot of soda or maybe an energy drink? Or something high in acid. Try to eat some bread to soke up the acid (if it is acid). For gas, you can't really do anything. Lay down for a while. Fortuantly, it will pass, in disgusting ways, lol.

im so bored this summer!im nearly 16 but my mom like never drives me anywhere...what can i do??????
Try to convince her that the whole part of getting your permit and license was to be able to drive around. I don't know where you live if you are able to get your permit when you are 15 but.. anyways, You can have friends come pick you up, go shopping, rent movies, go on the computer, or read. That really sucks your mom is like that. If I were you though, I would seriously talk to her about that.
