Ohhhh hun, there are loads of hatefull and spitefull people out there, try not to let it get to you♥

How about eating more foods that are going to hit your brain at a natural chemical level ~ like foods rich in Tryptophan, Vitamins B3 and B6 and magnesium will do??

These foods in conjunctionh with each other do a brilliant of conquering the blues i reckon.

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that's used by the brain - along with B6, niacin (or niacinamide), and magesium (known as the antistress mineral) - to produce serotonin (the natural feel good drug), a neurotransmitter that carries messages between the brain and one of the body's biochemical mechanisms of sleep.

The EFA's in foods rich in omega 3's such as cold water fishes like tuna, salmon, sardines and whiting are also essential in this process to nourish the neurons that are receiving the messages from the neurotransmitters

The Doctor doesn't tell you that when you go complaining of stress, anxiety and depression now does he .............. he surely should though.

Tryptophan will help induce natural sleep; reduce pain sensitivity; act as a nondrug antidepressant; alleviate migraines; aid in reducing anxiety and tension and help relieve some symptoms of alcohol-related body-chemistry disorders and aid in control of alcoholism.

Best natural food sources of Tryptophan are; cottage cheese, milk, meat, fish, turkey, bananas, dried dates, peanuts and all protein rich foods.

Best natural food sources for magnesium are: leafy and green vegies, nuts and seeds, cold water fishes such as tuna, sardines, whiting and salmon.

Best natural food sources for niacin are: the white meat of chicken, whole wheat products, roasted peanuts, fish, eggs, avoacadoes, dates, figs and prunes.

Best natural food sources for vitamin B6 are: wheat germ, fish, soybeans, brewer's yeast, cantaloupe, cabbage, blackstgrap molasses, unmilled rice, eggs, oats, peanuts and walnuts.

Take a good quality multi B complex supplement including all the B's ie: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12 you will support your body in dealing with the everyday stresses life throws at us. ie: new job, new home, school studies ...... nasty, spitefull people. The B complex of vitamins is essential for healthy digestive, neural and immune systsem functioning.

The whole food source of tryptophan and all other vitamins, minerals amino acids etc.... will always be the most nutritious and easily assimilable form.

Drink more fresh filtered water and pump up your body's energy levels by hydrating yourself properly too♥being sluggish and dehydrated do some awfully surprising things to our bodies. It's an awfully big ask to expect our bodies to function smoothly without sufficient water to lubricate our joints, digest our foods, filter and detox all the nasties we are exposed to on a daily basis.

Try to cut out sodas and soft drinks and diet drinks, coffee, tea and alcohol (if you drink any) as these are all terribly dehydrating and all do a fine job of robbing you of your essential B complex of vitamins which are essential for healthy neural, digestive and immune system functioning.

Get out there in the fresh air and sunshine and do something that makes you feel good ~ 10 - 15 minutes daily of safe sun exposure will go a long way to improving your mood and self esteem ~ go for a wander in the park, or walk an extra bus stop, how about going for a walk along the beach?? anything really that puts a smile on your dial ~ hold your head high hun and don't let the haters get you down. you are entitled to be happy and healthy and you are special, loving, kind and individual ~ get passionat about any one single thing that really ignites your spark!! Reclaim your vitality and spark♥

Take care of you♥

I sincerely do wish you all the best of health & vitality♥

Im sorry for wat others have said to you.
Answered By: minoko1212 - 2/10/2008
Oh my, yes, no offense but you really need to lose quite a bit of weight, its very unhealthy. you might only have high blood pressure now, but over the years you will develop much more like diabetes, high cholesterol, heart problems, breathing problems, you probably don't get very good sleep because i would guess you have problems sleeping at night, which a lack of sleep causes us to munch when we don't need to. try eating more fruits and veggies and getting plenty of water. Try keeping bad junk food out of the house, if its not there, it can't tempt you. I would ask your doctor if you could see a nutritionist to help with your diet regime. good luck.

Sweety, people pick on because they have nothing better to do. and they know u get a resaction out of, like u said u get depressed. dont show any emotion to them when they say anything. walk off and then u cant be upset but dont do it ion front of them because then they know they just won by seeing u upset. keep exercising like u have. it will work if u keep to that everyday. i am sure u are really pretty and u have a great personality. and as my mum said to me. when i was teased i learned a life lesson. not to jjudge peopel for what they look like. u will come out of life learning something. were as they wont and prob be likr this 4eva and know one will want to be around them . because they will still act like dicks. stay strong i overcomed it and i went through that so bad wif people all of school. i believe if icould get through it anyone can! gud luck sweet and remember u are beautiful. best wishes.xox

If this isn't a joke, i think you should just keep at it. eat right. get 1500 calories a day and keep on movin. exercise like its cool. and dont just walk. lift light weights it keeps the mucsles from getting weak and you'll start to lose weight faster.
Answered By: sayles s - 2/10/2008
You are in big trouble at that age. But there are some things to help. If you can stop gaining in six months then you will be fine. First you need a new friend who is overweight to chat with. Second you need to stop exercising because you will hurt yourself so you can only just be active and third there are some foods you have to never eat again. I suggest you don't eat anymore margarine or any pure vegetable oils. Buy some coconut oil from wall mart and take a little twice a day till you see what it does to your body. Use only tree oils or animal oils for food. If you go on Insulin I cant help you . Stop taking anti-depression meds and find a club or new friends to be out of the house more. The real secret as a youth is activity and fun. You can read my answers etc and email too.

Just because you're overweight doesn't mean you're the only type of person in this society that gets teased. everyone, big, small, short, pimplish, tall, 'flat', curved, all get teased at some point. if it really bothers you, (yeah this sounds mean but i'm serious) try to DO something about it. and remember people like Queen Latifa. she's big and curvy, but most guys would agree that she's hot. it's how you carry yourself.
Answered By: rebelwriter - 2/10/2008
No offense but according to the BMI (body mass index) scale you are obese. A person with a BMI of 30 or greater is considered "obese..." Your BMI is a 62.

No, people shouldn't tease you about your weight. I'm sure you're a beautiful person on the inside. But the fact is you are dangerously overweight, and all that excess weight CAN develop into diabetes and other scary diseases.

Try talking to your doctor about ways to lose weight. You probably need to do more than walking. Get a workout regimine that involves lost of cardio (running). Eat 3 healthy meals a day (ones that include LOTS of veggies, fruits, some whole grains and meats, and dairy).

good luck!

B/c people are insecure and take it out on others. It is so wrong to do but the hardest thing is raising above it. You have to somehow show that it doesn't bother you and just accept yourself for who you are one day at a time weather changing or not! It's the inside that counts!

I am currently a college freshman thinking about changing my major from pre-pharmacy to some kind of nursing. I think I would enjoy nursing more because of the hands-on work. I also love working with babies and am very interested in women's health. Therefore, I would like to become either a Certified Nurse-Midwife or a Perinatal CNS. What are the differences between these two jobs, and which one would you recommend pursuing?

Recently I have overlooked for a project at work and I am unable to accept it why? I am hard working, dedicated, maintain a very professional decorum, very cordial with my colleagues and bosses, give respect to one and all. Still people who take the p***, argue with managers, gossip mongers have been selected for some very responsible positions at work. I seriously can't get my head around it why, why unprofessional people who have no work ethics being selected over me, whereas I have a track record of excellent performance and never shy away from any work my manager ask me to do? I am at my lowest point and not getting hold of my manager to ask the question why not me, why them who can't even bother? I am feeling like a complete loser, giving years to this place, building my performance, trust and this is how I get rewarded. Why my life is so shit, anything I wish for turns to dust?

So today I went in for an interview and I was going in for the 2nd interview by the head chief executive. now this is where it got weird, so she asked me about my previous jobs and said how much she liked that product over that product. then she started talking about her daughter? an her divorce ...then how she didn't finish college because she was making more money doing what she did for this company ... then she talked about how her teenage daughter is a handful... I just played it cool thinking she was using some sort of psychology thing to trick me into saying something stupid. the interview ended and she seemed happy an I was escorted to the door... now I'm freaking confused? is this normal behavior for an executive? like it felt like she was going to burst into tears at one point and tell me her life problems... is this normal? was she trying to see how I react or something?

Basically- no degree, although I have tried completing one in the past and stopped because of physical and mental health issues which were overwhelming to deal with along with going to classes full time. I'm not stupid and I am quite articulate. I am 23 and have only worked for about two years retail in high school and stopped working to go to university. I worked a few months in 2010 retail after I dropped out but it was only a seasonal position, and the only reason why I have not been able to constantly work is because of mental health issues. I had also tried going back to community college during my free time since i left university in 2008/9 and I had panic attacks while in community college, which made my anxiety worse from then on. Well recently I met a good doctor and he prescribed me some meds that are stabilizing my moods and I feel the best I've felt in years, and I'm ready to work. Thing is, I don't know how to get a job now since I've spent literally years being depressed and anxious doing nothing. I don't really have anything to put on my resume, and I never finished my AA degree either. All I've done is cashiering and although I do the job well and I get promoted easily when I do these jobs because I'm a hard worker and I try to go above and beyond what they ask of me,which is the attitude I have no matter what kind of work I'm doing as long as I'm getting paid. But I hate cashiering because it's too easy and I want a job that is more interesting. Any suggestions for me on how to get a job that is NOT Retail with the type of background I have right now? I also realize I have to go to college to get certain types of jobs, I am talking about what I can do right here right now.

So I have a nice white button up shirt, business skirt and pants, and a suit jacket. I'm applying for a software development job and I'm very short and can look young so I'm trying to look adult, yet professional. I'm also attractive so I'm trying not to look too sexy. For the career fair I'm thinking of wearing just my nice shirt and a skirt with low heels. My reasoning being it's approachable and attractive without going overboard since the career fair hosts are mostly younger male recent grads. I want to be remembered but not intimidating. For my interviews I was thinking pants, suit jacket (power suit). My reasoning being it'll be older execs and HR people (mostly women) so less sexy with the pants but more powerful with the suit jacket. What do you think?!
