I've always had the dimples, but I find you can see them more when I've been working my lower back muscles or when I'm at a low (for me) weight. Try Sun Salutations! I noticed a differene after a few days. My tummys the same |

thanks guys :) yes, i think it'll wind up being nothing; I've had so many stange thigns happen in my body that wind up normal on a blood test. I'm just worried it might be diabetes, as it runs in my family. |

i've discovered the delicious amazing joy of an omelette with RICE and veggies for beakfast
i fry the riuce so its crispy in olive oil wiht the veggies, and then pour the eggs over top... very veeeery good, except when i put salt on, but salt makes it so muh better! |

i find skim milk helps when my tummys upset, even though i cant drink it otherwise... id think veggies and fruits would help, carb-y things do my sore tummy wonders :) |

you have nothing to be worried about, really :) i had all four of mine taken out a week before school started, and it was all good. you WILL be off with the fairies... i was on 3 painkillers; i was so out of it i couldnt walk on my own for a bit. actually, after i woke up (i had an iv; its the coolest feeling as it kicks in, the ceiling started to swirl and when i said "whooooa" it slowed down, my dentist laughed) i was so loopy i screamed at people & terrifed some kid at mcdonalds... i only know this thorugh witness accounts... just make sure to stay ahead of the pain. you may THINK you dont need another painkiller... YOU DO!!! AT LEAST until the fourth day good luck :) oh, and ttry oatmeal once youre ready to move your jaw. its very satisfying after icecream :p |

| Fitness | More weights= More Calories to eat? | Oct 15 2009 04:34 (UTC) |

i'm not tryin to lose weight right now; im not even weighing myself, rather go on the whole how-your-clothes-fit thing. its jsut i've been eating at "starvation" for a long time, so i'm trying to adjust my system to more, without just throwing like 1000 extra calories. thanks :) |

don't think about seeing people you know!! its the biggest waste of time, and a horrible excuse for not going out and having a good time, IMO. i used to be terrified of running around my neighbourhood in case i saw anyone (and i live literally a minutes walk away from my highschool; someones always around) or going to the gym at certain times because i was intimidsated by skinny/muscular girls there. IGNORE THEM. just tell yourself they're not even looking at you, and pretty much they never are :) we're pretty self absorbed as people right :P tennis is fun,although frustrating when you cant hit the stupid ball... swimmings great, always :) bikings great too, it tones your legs like no tomorow andworks abs too :) |

that happens to me sometimes too... i just scratch it, and when i'm in the shower scrub the spots hard with a facecloth, and after a while it goes away. try moisturizing too? |

" if she's asking for it then any age because clearly she's thinking about sex and it's better to keep her safe than to try to force abstinence on her." - chrissy1988 (oct 13,2009) i disagree... lots of girls ask because it helps with acne, and regulating your period. i used to have ridiculously heavy, long periods, and the pill is geared towards helping wiht that. i didnt need to ask for bc; my mom freaked out and put me on it as soon as she found out ihad lost my virginity a month ago. its scary to ask your mom about it, and i think if your daughter asks, you should realize shes going to have sex eventually, and as long as shes not like 12 or soemthing, and its better to support her and help her protect herself than wind up with grandbabies with AIDS. |

(i dont know if this replys to everyone or not) thanks for answering :) i'm trying to up to 1400-1500 for the next few weeks, and then hopefully 1800 ish (based on the info from the BMI link) or more (training for a half marathon soon :D :D) really really appreciate your replies. its easy to forget sometimes that i'm still actually not a grown-up, no matter how much i feel like i am, and to jsut chill out and be good to me. |

| Young Calorie Counters | To what extent are you girls influenced by models? | Oct 13 2009 01:29 (UTC) |
6 |
i dont think anyone can say they havent been influenced a LOT by models... we see them everywhere, its hard not to compare yourself. its what we do as humans... Victorias Secrets models are the most 'realistic' i think... obviously not girl next door, but they do have achievable body types. it'd just take a toooon of work. I'd rather look like Marisa Miller, or Britney Spears than Ana Carolina Reston (a brazilian model who died of complications of anorexia in 2006). Its just hard to remember that when you go to a dance/soccer/hockey focused highschool, and you do none of those things :P |

thats what everybody says... im in the same boat. try having a calorie-dense snack/meal, like almonds or something. they are high in calories, have protein and the good kind of fat. |

Thank-you :) Just checking: Eating at a deficit is when theres a difference between how much you burn and how much you eat, right? Proteinwise: I'm eating around 80 g of protein ( i have whey protein powder). I dont think i can eat eggs, unfortunately, becayse they have lactose. My biggest porblem is that i loooove dark chocolate ;) |

eat the cake!! or, just have a slice or two and let other people enjoy it too. My philosophy is that we live in a privileged country; if you have a craving, you can always make another cake or buy one. |

I have the same problem, especially with granola, cheerios & frootloops. The best way, ive found, is to measure out a serving according to the box, take an extra spoonful, and look at the bowl. Memorize how much is in there, and put the box away, maybe even in a different spot. |

passions_child - sorry, i meant "small", according to the fingers-around-wrist measuring. Maternally they are short, and simply eat too much, or they would be very slim people. Paternally they are all ~6 ft.+ (even the women) and develop muscle easily.
Thanks everyone for your comments and help. I'm going grocery shopping today , and my goal is to be comfortable with 800, then 1000, and 1200. |

I dont run with or without a pack, but when i walk home from the gym, it weighs me down as well. Try putting in a pair of shoes, or a water bottle, and packing a towel or two around it to hold it in place. |

I ahve the same issue! Mine is more about the fact that i dont want to smell other people & they shouldnt want to smell me, also that they glare at me (im assuming cause i'm 30 years younger than them?) Its like, really, you have ALL this equipment available, and you've GOT to buddy up beside me? Its tempting to jsut push them off and yell NO like they're a bad puppy. |

by healthy i mean i eat healthy foods (whole grains, veggies, fruit, dairy), i exercise every day (even if i can only go for a walk&do a few yoga poses) & i dont drink/smoke/do drugs on a regular basis. sorry if that was kind of confusing. |

I'm 15. Itake a vitamin everyday to try to help with not hurting myself. I'm trying to get down to my original weight, 110, but i wouldnt mind going to 105 & then gaining some back as muscle. Im a healthy person, but the thought of eating over 800 calories scares me. |

So you can log your weight -- which allows you to do the following:
- Plot your weight curve
- Analyze the trend of your weight (see under Recent in the figure above)
- Determine the projected target date (see under Overall in the figure above)
