Bulimia is NOT the healthy way to lose weight. There was a study where they had bulimic people throw up their food (like usual) and then they measured how many calories they had lost. There werhad lost less than 1/4 of the calories they consumed. The p...
Sweetie, you can get preganant from ANY man. It doesn't matter if your related to them or not..it can be your dad, brother, cousin, uncle..whatever!
It isn't illegal to smoke in public, just to buy the cigarettes. Where I live, you can smoke in front of cops, but they only ask you about it if you look under 18. As long as they don't see you trying to buy them, there really isn't anything they can do.
The cigarette smoking isn't half as bad as the pot smoking. If you seriousley feel addicted to it, you need to find a way to quit. Tell a trusted adult who you feel won't judge you, and ask them to help you. Chances are they will think you're being ver...
There's no way to 100% know if you kids will have perfect teeth. These days, an orthodontist or dentist think that every kid needs pricey dental work or braces. Make sure that your kids brush and floss regularly and try not to let them have pacifiers o...
It didn't show up..what you do is < b > TEXT < / b > for BOLD only without the spaces. and < fontsize = 6 > TEXT < / f o n t > only again without the spaces. And again, the number for the text size can be 1-10.
Start running regularly. If you run about a mile a day, on a treadmill or outside, for a week, your thighs will get much more firm and shapely. Just make sure that if you want them to stay that way, that you keep up your exercising routiene. And pay at...
Since you obviousley don't want to re-dye it black again, go to a salon. What they can do is strip out the color. I had my hair dyed dark red (I have naturally dark blonde hair), so I went and got it stripped out and had blonde highlights put in. If yo...
You can wear tampons whenever you feel comfortable. You could have worn them the first time you started your period if you wanted to. Usually girls wait until their third or fourth period, but you can do whatever you feel comfortable with.
I had the same problem when I first got one. Your parents are probably worried because they see all those stories about girls running off to foreign countries and meeting guys or meeting someone alone somewhere, etc. Assure your parents that you're sma...
If you want to make the words bold, do TEXT. if you want to make the words bigger, then do TEXT. For the bigger words one, you can do any number 1-10.
I used to feel the same way about my dad, and I definitley know how frustrating that is. First what you need to do is find some way to tell him exactly how you feel about absolutely everything. If you can't talk to him face to face, then send him an e-...
Yes, you can if you move in with someone over the age of 18 and they prove to be a stable provider for you. If they don't have anything on thir record, etc. You would have to get emancipated (not sure if I spelled that right), and then you can move out...
You need to report your stepdad to the police. He is endangering you and your mother. Neither of you deserve to be around that kind of behavior. The next time he hits your mother, take a phone, go into another room or outside and call 911. If the situa...
Just put lots and lots of lotion on them. When your at a drug store like Walgreens or Rite Aid, look for the lotions that say "extra moisturizing". Put it on your knees a few times a day, and pretty soon they'll be smooth.
A few years ago, when I was in 5th or 6th grade, I was the same way. I would come home from school, drop my backpack on the floor and sit infront of the computer for hours and hours. My mom and dad would announce that it was time for dinner, and I woul...
You could try first washing your hair, and then getting a color that looks dark enough to cover up your copper blonde. Maybe something like medium auburn would look nice. If you're afraid that it might make your hair look worse, then you should just st...
You pretty much HAVE to use tanning oil if you don't want to burn. Use some with some SPF in it and re-apply it regularly every 30 minutes. It will help you get more tan.
As long as you're under 18, you have to have your parent/guardian there to show their I.D. and fill out forms.
I don't have my tongue pierced, but I've gone with people when they got their's pierced. The piercer asks you to stick out your tongue, they either get a marker and put a dot on either side of your tongue, or they put a clamp on your tongue--sometimes ...
You should really think about this before you actually do it. Getting pregnant is something that will change your life forever. You won't be able to do a lot of the things "normal" teenagers are doing, and you'll be contributing most of your money to y...
Monroe piercings are hard to hide, but if you get a small clear stud instead of a metal or diamond one then your dad probably won't notice.
Everyone is different, but in my opinion, no, it didn't hurt at all. If you are getting your ear pierced in the lobe again, it feels no different than the first time.
I pierced my ear a third time myself. I clean it with alcohol everyday and it has never gotten infected. You can also go by the mall to the piercing stations and ask for some cleaning solution. Just pour some over a cotton swab or cotton ball and rub i...
Eat foods with zinc in them, that supposedly helps breast development. There are zinc supplements you can buy at the drugstore so why not give them a try? xox;;Greta
I'm so sorry! Tell your mother, even if your afraid. It won't be as bad as anticipating it and dreading telling her. The longer you wait, the worse it will get. If you think that your parents will do something drastic or try to harm you or your unborn ...
