http://www.funadvice.com/my/advice/goaty en-us good to hear that you want a healthy diet and don't want to be anorexic like half the young girls on this site seem to want. You should just cut out all junk food and eat a lot of salads and fruit , switch to low-fat products, go for wholemeal breads instead of white, dont drink fizzy drinks, drink lots of water and also get involved in some sort of regular exercise that you enjoy and can do everyday, whether it be walking, swimming, aerobics, etc. Also dont deprive yourself of a favourite food if you feel like it, just have it less often. hope it works out for you, have a nice day !! :) goaty Sun, 14 Oct 2007 17:31:21 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/whats_a_healthy_diet 112654 chicken and mushroom pies from the bakery in the town I grew up in. They rule !! :) goaty Fri, 05 Oct 2007 18:40:24 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/favorite_kind_of_pie 108236 heehee, that made my day, thanks !! goaty Wed, 03 Oct 2007 18:05:51 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/mechanical_pencil_obsessions 107420 why doesn't she just go on the pill instead ? Isn't it better to be totally protected from falling pregnant rather than risk it just to see what it feels like and then maybe end up having to face being pregnant? If she's old enough to be having sex she should also be mature enough to be safe about it. :) goaty Wed, 03 Oct 2007 03:00:08 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/fun_but_the_concequences 107066 drink lots and lots of water, dont eat any crap, have lots of salads, if you drink milk switch to low-fat, go for a walk everyday, do simple exercises , dont use butter,cheese,salad dressings,dont drink soft drinks, dont have 3 regular meals a day just eat when you're hungry. I find a good way to stick to regular exercise is to draw up a chart and stick it on your fridge and tick off your set exercises/walks etc everyday because if you dont do them you feel guilty about it. Just basically eat foods that arent filled with sugar and fat,that and exercise should give you results. good luck :) goaty Mon, 01 Oct 2007 19:06:36 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/what_diets_worked_out_for_you 106281 well, Im left-handed and I play guitar right handed, maybe if I learnt on a left-handed one Id play a lot better. Ive always played cricket and softball right-handed but everything else left-handed or left-footed. goaty Mon, 01 Oct 2007 18:56:12 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/left_handed_or_right_handed 106278 I hate swallowing tablets too,I always have,if I ever had capsules I would open them up and tip the stuff in some water and drink it and with other ones I would crush them up with a spoon and do the same.After having to take a lot of tablets not too long ago after breaking an ankle I just put it in my mouth and got a glass of water and just drank heaps of water really quickly. good luck !! :) goaty Thu, 27 Sep 2007 03:07:02 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_do_i_swallow_a_really_big_pill 104025 First of all, all babies are different,some sleep all through the night at an early age others will be waking up several times during the night for years. My two boys as babies were waking up every 2 hours or so every night and I found it easier to have them in bed with me. But getting back to you,how old is your daughter? if she is still very young it is natural for her to wake often for feeds etc. just be patient, as they have less sleeps during the day they should sleep more during the night ( well it didnt work for mine, grr ) goaty Wed, 26 Sep 2007 19:10:12 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/when_should_my_baby_girl_sleep_through 103909 I think basically just be yourself around him,don't be shy and speak out and give your opinion about things when you're talking , let him know you have a mind of your own and are a confident person. Ask him questions about things that you know interest him and show him how devoted you are to his son. Maybe have a few beers with him and get him relaxed and have a laugh with him, but my best advice is don't try to change to make him like you, just be you !! :) goaty Wed, 26 Sep 2007 18:55:07 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/relations 103904 you're lucky its just a temporary colour. I put a permanent black/blue in last weekend just on my underneath bits and it went really blue, then i wanted it out and panicked because I knew how hard it was going to be to go back to blonde from dark blue. I managed it though and am happy to say Im all blonde again. If your hair was blonde,I suggest buying a really intense blonde lightening colour,thats what worked for me OR because it was just a temporary colour, keep washing your hair constantly and it will gradually fade. If you dont want to put a permanent colour in to correct it maybe you should go to your local hairdresser and ask them for advice. be patient, you wont be green forever, good luck !! :) goaty Wed, 26 Sep 2007 18:36:30 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/temporary_hair_color 103896 I have 3 tatts on my ankles and the colouring is quite painless, I had mine done all in one go and going from the outline to the colouring is a pleasant relief !! goaty Wed, 26 Sep 2007 18:28:55 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/does_coloring_in_a_tattoo_hurt 103891 you don't have to ask your mum, you're 18 right? go to a doctor and get a prescription. It is advised that you take the pill for at least two weeks before you have sex to give it time to work. Use a condom as well as the pill for added protection until the pill has time to do its job properly. goaty Wed, 26 Sep 2007 18:25:33 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/birth_control_140 103889 I think you just have to let her go, she is obviously determined to do it and by trying to stop her will only make her resent you more.She is still young and she will realise after a short while that maybe its not as fun and as easy as she thought it would be. Its something that she has to experience and by her doing this it will make her realise just what a good support you were and how much you really helped her while she was living at home. Believe me, it wont be long until she will be ringing you up asking for your help, she will be missing her freedom and will soon realise that having a young child with her constantly without a break is not as easy as she might think it will be now. Hang in there and be there for her and support her and it wont be long until she will appreciate you and your help and maybe it will strengthen your relationship with her in the long run. good luck. goaty Wed, 26 Sep 2007 18:12:33 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/17_year_old_too_young_to_move_out 103884 No way !! That poor child, I find that appalling that he is being left home alone at such a young age, and why is the husband to scared to do anything? It sounds like someone has to be told about this right away and the boys mother needs to sort out her priorities. Children come first ALWAYS !! and as far as the visiting the murdering husband in jail,thats really showing her son a good role model isnt it? NOT !! For the childs sake,this has to be dealt with ASAP. goaty Wed, 26 Sep 2007 17:52:26 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/9_yo_home_alone 103869 just one, Australia !! :) goaty Wed, 26 Sep 2007 17:43:40 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/how_many_countries_have_you_lived 103863 wow, sounds like fun, and no, I've never been there. I think it would be scary with all those lions wandering about not to mention the hippos but it would be a great experience.

I've got 3 on my ankles and they really didn't hurt at all, it might be a bit uncomfortable when they first start but after a while you just sort of block it out. Im hoping to get one on my lower back soon :) goaty Tue, 25 Sep 2007 06:05:24 -0700 http://www.funadvice.com/q/tattoos_97830 103241 thanks, and guess what?
