my ipod got stolen so i haven't been able to consistently use mine anymore, but i'll add to what i remember:

7. they have those workout routines, soo helpful. also that automatic "cool down" rest point.

8. mine would say these really motivational things, like "great job!", i always loved that.

9. i'm sort of hesitant about typing in my weight at the gym or feeling watched so i love that you've got the privacy in the comfort of your own home (if you do).

10. not to mention at the gym, there is always that one person who insists the air conditioner or heater be directly in front of the machine you're using, like they can't move it and their goal is to make you uncomfortable.. so not having to deal with that is a luxury.

heyy, it's alright. i don't have much of an experience with an ED but remember who you were before it and don't allow it to rule your life.

when you deprive your body of food (aka starving yourself), you lose weight and feed on your own bodies fat. when you do finally feed your body, it latches on to the food so you're gaining weight from the food and the your own fat. it's weird, but basically it comes just as quickly as it went.

my advice is keep it up and hide the scale, and eat! :)

i definitely plan on doing that, just not right at this moment.

 

OP what exactly are you just not going to do right at this moment??

And armandleg, I totally agree. Mensafool your concepts of good ideas are a bit confusing...

staying sober, focusing on school, hanging out with friends, working out, everything i was doing when i was using.. just without using. i'll still hang out with the same people and stuff.

i think she was just trying to be helpful because of abortion costs. but i do think they would seriously investigate because i live in a very upper class county with a small population and very low crime rate, so they would definitely take extreme action. again, it's just not for me. especially because i did consent to it and i'm generally an honest person so if i lie about the smallest thing it gets to me. not being able to tell my mom is eating away at me haha.

 

and yeah i will definitely be going on the pill :)

keo187: okay woah woah, first off, when i said i'd take it easy i met i'm gonna continue smoking pot. i will not continue drinking at the moment, i'm not going to stop drinking for the rest of my life. are you out of your mind? second of all, i realize it's a "simple" concept but that doesn't validate why so many people can't grasp it. third of all, you might get your point across better if you didn't emphasize how immature, stubborn and how much of a **** i am. i wouldn't judge someone for not using a condom, especially if they already acknowledged they made a mistake, i would support them in their choices from here on out. but whatever, you have a very cynical way of attempting to get through to people.

rosieblue: thankyou! i've done everything i can, but i seriously just dont think i can please the majority of these people.

se1289: your a straight up idiot.. i'm not being responsible because i have too. i don't have too. i could try throwing myself down a staircase and try self induced labor. also the sex = condom is a simple concept clouded by so many other circumstances  based on the person and situation. your putting words into my mouth and on top of that being a b*tch. you've been horny before? you've gotten a condom? thats cool... i'm not you.. i'm glad to know you set such a self proclaimed, intellectual and mature example for yourself but i don't care. okay, well since i had so much time that i don't remember then i guess i could have, but i don't remember. and you weren't there, and to me you sound old, narrow minded, rigid, over specialized, boring and kind of dull. and off the record veggiehead sent me an apology.. so i guess your **** out of luck.

I'm sure this experience has already served as a wake-up call regarding condom use and you don't need any more lectures...

Trust, I wish you were right that the experience was eye-opening, but in post # 88, the OP says that "its not as simple as sex = condom." I'm still waiting for an explanation of the statement.

in society, not just in my situation. one thing i didn't mention was i DID ask for a condom but he kept saying "hold on, one second". there are lots of other factors like the atmosphere, heat of the moment, if they are available at the moment, it a person is educated/allergic to condoms, and in my case, how much someones judgment is impaired by alcohol. maybe it should be that simple, but generally it's not.

also i would not claim myself as raped except for the incident which was "statutory" rape because he was twenty and i'm 16, but given the option i really don't want to give to much information to prevent him from getting in trouble. i think my medical insurance might cover it.. along with a PP appointment tomorrow, i also have a doctors appt. and i will inform my doctor.

...

on the topic of being 16 and sexually active, honestly, the majority of people i know are sexually active. ...

Because "everybody's doing it" is NEVER a good excuse or reason for ANYTHING. Neither is being drunk. I hope this whole experience really makes you think about your lifestyle choices. At 16, you should be stressed about school, what colleges you want to apply to, acne, etc....not worrying about if the idiot cheating boy you accidentally slept with pulled out, potentially impregnating you or passing along std's. Please rethink your priorities for a good long time and consider some drastic life changes.

But, I have no sympathy for you. All my sympathy goes to the unborn baby you may be carrying whose fate is to be aborted, put up for adoption, or raised by a young girl who is (self-proclaimed) stupid, and to your parents. These are the people who, through no mistakes of their own, are going to suffer from your selfishness and irresponsibility. Tell your parents. You owe them at least that much. And hopefully they can convince you to do the right things(go to the doctor, get tested, figure out all your options) and help you transform your life for the better.

Good luck.

^^This. Couldn't have said it better!

it does i guess, but it's also redundant.

i read every reply on here and a couple things:

first off, im not going to PP for a pregnancy test because obviously its too early to tell. im going just to talk about it with a pregnancy councilor/doctor and learn about different types of birth control and basically whats going on in my body and to arrange a follow up. i still havent gotten my period and maybe its stress, maybe its not due, im not really sure. the anticipation is getting to me though, i read up on acupuncture and i thought it was a way so i could get my period and prevent pregnancy but its not, so i won't be doing that.

i'm not looking for anyones sympathy, seriously i'm not that type of person at all. i was just generally curious if i was screwed or not but now im getting a whole different side of the spectrum. if i am pregnant, i'm getting an abortion. go ahead and sympathize with the undeveloped fetus but that is something i will not feel guilty about. and as for my lifestyle, like i said, i am changing it. i havent used/smoked/drank since that night and the day after. im not going to be sober but i will definitely take it easy. and i dont know how many times i have to say this but my parents will not be informed at all. my mother is arabic and a muslim and so culturally different that she would infact hate me. i am nothing like she expected, she has trouble accepting me, she's told me that, and we're not all that close. it's a completely different subject that i'm not gonna even begin to get into but normally if i had a nurturing loving mother who was american, then yeah i'd tell her but i genuinely think for her sake, its better she doesn't know.


to veggiehead: you sound kind of naive and very sheltered and like your not aware of circumstances, especially the fact that its not as simple as sex = condom. go ahead and be insulting but honestly, i dont give a **** if your gonna be a teenage mom or not. i might take what you had to say seriously if i took you seriously.. but i don't. so you're just wasting your time. also classifying yourself as a "b*tch" speaks miles, thats definitely not something you should be proud of. and you know what, i really don't think you grasp the complexities of the situation because you sound so ignorant. i mean its your opinion, thats chill, if you think i should burn in hell and eat **** for the rest of my life because of my mistake thats fine, but i would much rather be where i am right now, 16 and wondering if i'm pregnant than an arrogant **** trying to validate being a b*tch. and off the record, we might be close in age, but i was nothing like you at 15. and i find it kind of insulting and unfortunate that we are close in age.

anyways its pretty much sorted out, i appreciate everyone who took the time to give input.. negative or positive.

Motivation Feeling Very Down Aug 29 2009

hey there! i know its difficult to maintain.. i've been so stressed lately i've put on two pounds and we all know how much easier it is to gain than lose (unless your recovering from an ED). i can sit here and try to encourage you but really its up to you and its gotta come from inside. that motivation and everything. when you see something that you know you shouldn't have, why do you have it? theres something tempting about forbidden food. you dont need to restrict yourself like that. what i do to keep myself motivated to eat healthy is i ALWAYS carry something that will remind me of my goal. for example, everywhere i go, i bring the book "skinny bitch". it keeps me grounded and reminds me of how **** im gonna feel if i eat badly. you can sit and feel like crap but that will only tire you out, and when you're tired your body goes to the closest source of energy: FOOD. and usually, not healthy food. if we eat when we're sad, by filling ourselves up, we feel like we're also getting rid of that empty space and that bad feeling, whatever it might be. it starts when you let it, and it ends when you decide to get back onto the bandwagon. :) and if you dont get back on soon you might be exactly where you started, so better sooner than later. do what you feel you need to do, but just make sure it's healthy.

couple things, i've read all these posts.

i've had a day to think about it and i'm fine emotionally. im not really freaking out. if i'm pregnant, i'm pregnant. it is what it is and i'd thought about what i'd do in this situation before it happened.

i've got a rough guess from when my last period was and ive made an appointment with planned parenthood for tuesday because im gonna be out of town over the weekend. i'm also about to e-mail/call a couple acupuncturists because two people have told me i can restore my period maybe, and if not, i'm pregnant. im gonna try to find out some more information about it. also i will definitely be going on birth control, i was on the depo provera shot for a while but it made me gain weight and i didnt think i should take the pill because of how forgetful i am.

as for asking the guy if he pulled out, id rather not. hes got a girlfriend, hes an idiot, and i really dont want him doing anything or frankly knowing. id just rather kind of take care of it myself. also as for STDs, i highly doubt i have anything but i will make sure to get tested on tuesday at PP. i havent gotten my period which is starting to irritate me a little, but i also havent been experiencing side effects like dark nipples, hunger, sore breasts or headaches.

on the topic of being 16 and sexually active, honestly, the majority of people i know are sexually active. when i did have sex with him, i did bleed because i was never that sexually active. he was the second guy i'd had sex with, before him i'd always been good when i drank and turned people down. now that this has happened i am definitely gonna be so much more careful and not drink half as much, it was a mistake, i realize that. and again, the county i live in is the most alcoholic for teenagers in the US. on the note of my parents allowing me to party, its not like they condone it or they love it, its more like my dad knows/thinks im responsible and i wont get myself in sucky situations and normally i dont, normally im smart about and and safe about it and i would never have sex with a random person.

so i just texted the guy asking him if he pulled out and hes saying he doesnt know what im talking about... kinda random

i know it sucks, believe me i am so sick of feeling like that. let it motivate you to work harder and take a step closer to your goal because its worth it, dont let it consume you.

  1. i hate that my hair won't grow very quickly because its curly. i just started school again and i saw a girl who had hair shorter than me at the beginning at summer, and now its longer than me because its straight or for some reason. so on top of that, i also have to straighten it, yadayada.
  2. i start volleyball tomorrow and im kind of sure the class is going to be full of those pretty girls in northface jackets and uggs. you know, the type that intimidates you because they're got maybe a layer of mascara on and they're skinny, toned and athletic. and here i am, chubby and with a sprained ankle. it just screams judgment, i know im gonna get nauseas right before.
  3. im still fat. that bothers me. and even when im slim (if ever) im gonna have to maintain. sometimes i think, is it even worth it?
  4. i have no weed.
  5. and my homework..
  6. the heat. cant it get cold already? im so excited to hide in my huge sweatshirts and jackets to illuminate my fat and sit down without trying to conceal my fat and draw attention towards my face. just not my profile.
  7. the economy + no job thing. crappy phone, getting **** for being grateful.. im not bad off but now i have to be more careful which sucks because now i spend money on weed and i have like one pair of pants.
  8. why are running shoes so ugly..
  9. bus drivers wearing swine flu masks. come on.
  10. my nose.

Motivation Being called "thick" a compliment?? Jul 08 2009
01:29 (UTC)

i can't tell you how many times ive been called thick. a guy even once said to my friend, "where you're thick lady friend?".. i take offense to it. i'd much rather be small, but here are some positive definitions thanks to UB:

 

thick :

- nice ass, nice legs, not skinny, with meat on your bones. thickness is the ****.

- A woman with a perfect body, filled-in in places that are, by nature, designed to attract the opposite sex, such as the thighs, the hips, the breasts, and the most lovely part of all, the booty

- When a girl's body has weight on it, but not ugly, out of shape weight. More like medium and curvy. A round behind and firm, full legs is considered thick.

- a word used to describe a female who may be defined by health charts as "overweight," but still attracts mad guys because the weight is in the right places (hips, buttocks, and breasts) a female with too much weight in the wrong places (like a huge gut stomach, or double/triple chins) would just be considered fat.

 

so in some eyes i guess its a good thing, but not mine personally.

Health & Support The worst disease for a recovered Purger May 13 2009
06:05 (UTC)

hey, its okay. purging is totally a guilty pleasure, i wouldn't know but i can imagine. just remember that it'll cause you to expand in the long run and because it is a temporary state, that it won't be forever. i have hypothyroid, so i blew up and it destroyed my thyroid which monitors my metabolism. so now i have to take medication everyday for the rest of my life, and just recently my thyroid doctor said my thyroid was closer to a normal size but it didn't reverse the effects of my metabolism, so that makes it really hard to lose weight even with exercise. i'd just recommend drinking lots of fluids to settle your stomach and green tea to keep your metabolism going. :)
