ok so you haven't been awnsering my questions lately even when I put mod at the top so it would be nice if you could awnser this one question for me.ok so like I was wondering if you have any tips for losing weight before school starts.I definetly want my stomach to have less fat on it and my thighs to not be so big.plus I can't do any workouts on machines because 1.we don't have any and 2.my mom doesn't know I want to workout and I'm not telling her.so if you could name some workouts for me and what i should eat (I think I need to lay of the junk food cause I've been eating a lot of it latley.)it would be really nice.thanks!

 

Hey girl! You can try jogging or running for exercise.  You'll have to get your heart rate up to burn calories, which in turn gets rid of fat on your body.  As for what you're eating, you got it right that laying off of junk food is the key to losing weight.  Drink TONS of water and eat lots of fruits and veggies, which will fill you up more than junk, anyway!  Be careful about hiding your workout from your mom.  She wants you to be healthy, so she should know if you're doing extra exercise.  Hiding things from your mom is NEVER a good thing, so let her know that you want to get healthy before school starts and I'm sure she'll be behind you! xoxo

I'm a vegetarian and I've been eating these for MONTHS! I use them in vegan cookie recipes because if you mix it with water it becomes an egg substitute. I hate when I discover something and then suddenly it becomes a "super food" and everyone starts eating it!

So for the past couple days my stomach has hurt REALLY BAD and I've had rather heavy discharge that feels like I'm peeing myself. Is my period coming soon?
PLEASE HELP ASAP




Hey girl, that sounds like your period is probably on its way. But they're tricky things to pin down. If you don't get your period in the next few days and your stomach is still hurting a lot, you should check with your doctor to make sure everything's okay.

ok so im determined to wear a bikini next summer and also just get healthier. my plan is 5 days a week do a 30-45 minute cycling workout. also to walk my dog as many days as i can. plus (because my stomach has pretty much all my fat) do 100-200 ab exercises a day. combined with a healthy diet will this be enough to lose about 10 and tone up in a year? please answer!!!




Hey girl, that's great that you wanna get in shape! Cycling isn't the most intense exercise, but it's a good place to start. Maybe after a while you can try the elliptical or the treadmill, too. And if you can stick to ab workouts every day and a healthy diet, you should be all set. Good luck!

Hey girl! Your hormones are going crazy since you're going through puberty, so that might explain your new interests.  Don't worry about it for now, once you get older and start to date, you'll figure out what you're feeling.  xoxo

So basically what your trying to say is that it's a nutritious food for us to eat so we can have a sharper mind, stay fit and strong! Are you sure that's gonna make you lose weight because I only want to eat it since my aunt has those chia seeds which makes her fit and active! This would be very useful for me to not forgot some of my memories. Although, is it possible for it to make us lose weight caz I'm already underweight and with high metabolism, I need all the gaining weight I need! The doctor said to take these vitamins but it's not making me eat more, he said just eat as much as YOU can, don't be forced and lets see what happens in the near future. I'm suppose to weight over 100pounds since I'm very tall, 5ft 6inches so yeah...

 

Hey girl! Chia seeds have a ton of fiber, so they keep ya full for longer (meaning you'll eat less, and probably ingest less calories).  That means it might make you lose weight.  I would recommend talking to your doc about what else you can eat to help you gain weight.  Other things with healthy fats with less fiber (like avocado) might be a better choice for you.  xoxo

-Can I trust a flirty guy who's taken?

 Hey chica! Hey to tell ya, but I don't see your mod questions on those articles.  I wasn't modding last night, but if you asked the same question on a bunch of different articles, some mods only answer it on one article and erase it on the rest.  If you can't find your questions, you can ask me right now! xoxo

First, thanks so much for answering. So, I just got the position of flyer on my cheer squad. I used to be a base but then they switched the stunt groups around. It's fun once I get in the air but I'm really worried about being the center of attention. Do you have any suggestions for being more calm and focused for games and stuff?? Thanks (:

 

Hey girl! Congrats on being flyer! A cheerleader's job is to smile even if her team is losing, so consider this time for you to practice your game face! Instead of focusing on the center of attention, focus on how much fun you're having, on your balance, on anything but the crowd.  Above all, focus on getting things done the right way.  You'll have enough to think about that you won't even notice being the center of attention! xoxo
