Thanks for your advice, I'll try to persuade them to buy healthier food.  For thier health, My grandmother did have a very minor stroke a few weeks ago, (due to stress and the southern cook's love for butter.)

I think, In my family it's a lack of time that makes them eat so poorly, It's not always easy to make everything from scratch. They think that if they don't buy convenience food it will be hard to prepare meals in a timely manner. It might take a while to show them that with a little planning, healthy eating can be just as easy as eating out of a box.  if it doesn't work, only a year before I'll be in my own place ^_^

Last night I went shopping with mom, she didn't go for whole grain pasta but she did, at least, show a will to cook a real meal.

I think I'm cooking tonight. Yeay :)

GOALS!

Get to 110, stay out of the 120s! (I'm only 5'3" so this is healthy for me)

Maintain my 4.0

Get A's on finals

Attend School (I skip too much)

Be able to eat chocolate in moderation

Not eat what I bake

Drink plenty of water and take my vitamins :)

My anti - acne routine:

1) Wash face with antibacterial soap morning, afternoon, and evening

2) DRINK LOTS OF WATER

3) Avoid junk food

4) Slap some max strength zit cream on problem spots under makeup and on your face at night

5) Clay mask once a week

6) No touching, no scratching.

I thought I was 5'3" for about a year...till the doc told me I was 5'2"  and a little half lol

Thats ok though, short is good

I'm sorry but 1) the calculator on the link is based rediculously high and 2) I'm not starving myself. If I'm hungry, I eat healthy food. 3) If I seriously, ate over 2000 calories a day, I would be overweight. Believe me, I've tried it. I was overweight eating the amount of calories the guidelines recommend.

I don't know if everyone else wants to trust a site, or their body. But I think I'm going to trust my body.

The school lunches here are all fried foods (ICK) but they usually have a healthy choice, usually a salad. :) The vending machines are only allowed to have diet drinks in them

We have a 'break' for 15 minutes where the school will sell unhealthy food (including pizza) out the windows...

I just want a damn banana -_-

I might start bringing a sack lunch. Whole wheat bread sandwich - mmmmmm

Rule of thumb for female 'ideal' weight is as follows...

5 feet = 100 lbs, + 5lbs for every inch after that. For a small frame subtract 5lbs, for a large frame add 5.

For example, I am 5'2" with a small frame. My ideal weight would be 100 + 5(3) = 115 - 5lbs for frame size

Ideal weight - 110.

(although I look and feel best at 100-105)

Christmas is about sharing and loving one another. It shouldn't be about scrambling to sales (trampling innocent people while doing so) to make everyone on your list happy. Love should be expressed through action, not money.
Every year the holiday season gets tougher and tougher on people. Every year people want more. Christmas gifts get more expensive, Thanksgiving dinner demands to be larger, Decorations need to be more etc. Christmas (if finance allows comfortably) should be a time where you give gifts of appreciation to your loved ones. Not a time to buy gifts to express love. Material items will be mostly forgotten by people. Actions last forever.

As a teen still living with her mother, I've encouraged my family not to get me much for Christmas. A Lot of families are noticing a tighter budget, and simply cannot afford expensive gifts that people want. People have forgotten (including my family) that Christmas is not REQUIRED. It's simply an extra little something to show someone that you think of them. A coloring book and some crayons will mean just as much to a kid as a new video game. (and they'll get more use out of the coloring book)

But still, people are stressing over getting someone an iPod, thinking "Oh my gosh how am I ever going to afford to make them happy!?"

Newsflash: They'd be just as happy with something less expensive.

It's the THOUGHT that counts. Cheap gifts are a good thing!

If I were a mother having to cut back Christmas a little because of the recession I would simply explain to my kids that Christmas is about giving and that I want to give them the best in the world, but the money is just too tight.

:P Late as well.

I don't know what goal weight 4 is. May or may not lose more depending on looks. I want to be thin, NEVER bony though.

I don't really care what men in general are attracted to, it really depends on the man.

What I have found to be the most attractive to a man is....

BOOBS

tiny waist

HIPS

long TONED legs

Something like this...

5'5" 36-22-36, half of her being legs.

I've always found it kind of easy to achieve that body. Then again, only 8% of women actually have an "hourglass" body.

Just weighing however much you need to be at your "ideal" weight is usually very attractive.

Not to fat, not too skinny is usually attractive to all men

Age: 14 soon to be 15 (Earny July) :)
