1,666

Age: 19 (turning 20 in May)

Weight: 122 (started in the 130s in high school)

Height: 5'1''

Goal: 105-110, since i'm so short.

My name is Tina and i'm a college student in my 2nd year of college. By some miracle I lost weight my freshman year because the walk to the cafeteria was so long that I barely ate at the cafeteria, so instead I ate grilled chicken subs at subway. Now that i've transferred universities and the cafeteria is downstairs and fast food lurks at every corner, i've gained about 3 pounds since having lost the weight last year. I would really benefit from having a buddy whom I can email with/message with. I'm a good listener and I think I can help you out by offering tons of encouragement. I need a buddy who can do the same and help me keep on track food wise/excercise wise since I am starting my new lifestyle change tomorrow.

Hii guys!

So last week I ate alot and I was really bloated. But these past few days i've been drinking water and eating healthy foods (and salads!) and I already feel and look better.

 I didn't mention this before but i'm a size 4 short in jeans and (as a reminder) i'm 129.6 pounds.

Halloween is such a great goal date :D I loveeee Halloween and I hope I don't gain that weight back.

Whoa okay so I weighed myself and i'm 129.6 lbs. I'm suprised! I thought I was for sure in the 130s. I guess I only gained 2 pounds.

I have the same problem as you, alison5.

Unfortunately though my schedule this year doesn't allow as much walking up and downstairs as previous years  (I only do it about 4 times a day total now, where as before was probably 8-12).

Do we really burn alot at school? I must be burning more than I did all summer when I didn't work out at all though!

Yes it is possible! My brother is only 13 (he'll be 14 in a month) and he already has a 6 pack (it's not totally chiseled yet, but you can lightly see the formation).

Whenever I go out to eat with friends and family, I always make sure I NEVER clear the plate completely. I don't know why exactly but it makes me feel better about myself haha and doesn't make me look like a pig or something.
The Lounge Just saw "Disturbia" - recommended! Aug 12 2007

I saw it in theaters and again when it came out on DVD. I loved it :) True the first 30 minutes of the film you don't even think it could be a thriller movie with a murderer and everything. But it nicely leads in to it.

Genre wise, I would call it a "teen thriller" because of the girl next door thing and all.

I don't want to be negative here, but to me this sounds fishy... if you were working together since you were 16 and he was 33...and one can only assume that with this "connection" he was also physically attracted to you, while you were a minor at the time. That just sounds really strange (and sorry for saying this, but gross and creepy too). I know that you also said you have a connection that you can't explain but unless you act much older than your age, I don't see what the connection could be other than maybe physical attraction on his part.

A hot young 20 year old girl becoming intimate and romantic with a divorced 37 year old man with kids would sound great to his friends and anyone else he could brag to. As someone stated before, you could be the rebound... maybe a way to show his ex-wife "ha look I have! A hot 20 yr old girl".

Also, you both really are at different stages of your life. Is this what you really want? I think he can really hold you back. He'll be jealous of your male friends and won't like seeing you going out and partying since you're in college...

Anyway just really think about what you want. And if it's what you know in your heart feels right, then I guess go for it...but be smart too.

I keep everything except clothes that are just TOO small. But clothes that I can fit back into when I lose a few more pounds, I put them in a drawer I like to call my "skinny drawer".

ebomb, I'm with you on that one... I've been wondering alot lately too... especially since I just finished re-reading HBP and after Dumbledore dies it says he's safe in his portrait sleeping... I mean, wouldn't that mean that he can still talk and offer his advice should Harry go to the office and ask?

Also...what do you all think? Will Harry & friends return to Hogwarts? I'd like to see they do...but I don't think it's gonna happen. Those remaining horcruxes MUST be found and if Deathly Hallows is about the same length as the other books, there's probably no time for Harry to be in school ---- and I don't think McGonagall would be too keen on allowing Harry in and out of Hogwarts to go horcrux-hunting (especially since she doesn't know that's what Harry and Dumbledore were doing in HBP).

I subscribe to Seventeen magazine and I remember one issue where they discussed sexual harassment. In that article it featured a website for women to post videos from their cell phones or pictures and such OF their harassers without blurring their faces to embarass the men who embarassed them.

I don't know the site at the top of my head but I think the article said it was made after some man started to "pleasure himself" infront of this woman in public without being discreet about it either. She pulled out her camera and videotaped it and posted it on the website.
Motivation what does 'curvy' really mean? Jul 13 2007

I see curvy as  girls with a little more meat in their thighs, breast, and butt area with a teeny waist.

When Seventeen magazine does their clothes bit, they always have a very overweight to obese girl under "curvy". In this case...I think they are using curvy as a euphemism because it sounds ALOT nicer than "Fat" or "Obese".

Ugh I know how you feel, though i've never been stalked (not that I know of anyway!) and i'm not the stereotypical hottie either (LOL atleast I don't think so!)...but I am a 5'1'' 17 yr old girl with 34C/Ds. I go to highschool with PIGS!!!!! I don't get alot of male attention because I'm so self conscious that I always have on a jacket or something, but when it's really hot or the AC in the school is busted, I get really lewd comments.

Also when I was in the 8th grade (about 13 or 14) I was walking home at night in a skirt and babydoll tee (I was only down the street from my house) and this car of teenage boys with their windows down were wooting and hollering at me shouting HEY SEXY!!!. I had the same sized chest then too and I was alot slimmer than I am now. I probably looked like a pornstar to them. That same year I was walking down the halls of my junior high to deliver papers to other teachers since I was a counselor's aid, and this boy I passed in the hall said "Hey babyy". Trust me, none of this flattered me. I was freaked OUT.

At restaraunts or other public places if I catch a male (ahem...older males -- remember, i'm 17 --) staring, then I just cross my arms and glare at then for a second before turning.
