I've lost my motivation to lose weight. Help?
Hi. I'm 21 years old and since the last week of August (so 5 months ago) I've lost 65 pounds, going from 235 to 170. At the time my motivation was a long distance boyfriend. We recently broke up and I'm so busy and I just don't want to work out and eat healthy anymore. I feel I have no motivation to look good. How can I get out of this funk before I gain all my weight back? Thanks for your help! :)

2 AnswersLanguages8 years agoIn my online "relationship" he's too good for me?
Hey! So I met this guy on omegle and he's awesome. We're both 21 and he's legit (everything matches up...his voice on the phone and a speech he made on YouTube and twitter, fb, etc). He's incredibly smart, a social butterfly, hilarious and cute if I may say :) I live inthe US and he lives in Mexico City. We've been talking for a couple months now and I can tell he cares about me as much as I care about him. I just think he's too good for me :/ I'm not as social, I'm overweight and he doesn't know (not morbidly, like if I lost about 50 pounds--I'm 5'4--I'd have society's idea of a perfect body. I've already lost weight in anticipation of meeting him). Basically I feel like I might have led him on. Should I stop talking to him, or just not tell him and keep chucking those pounds off and hope we don't meet for a few months yet? Thanks for your help!! :)
2 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years agoIs there an app where I can KEEP MY OWN PHONE NUMBER and send texts?
AND where the person I'm texting does not have to have the same app I'm using? (For example whatsapp and viber-they're great but they require the other person I'm texting to have that app!). Thanks you so so much for any suggestions!!! I really would appreciate it! I don't have SMS texting for my iphone and so I can only text people who also have iMessage :/
2 AnswersCell Phones & Plans8 years agoDo I have to use wifi for audio face time?
My wifi connection is not super great at my house and sometimes wavers in and out, and will go back to my regular cellular network. If I'm audio face timing someone, can I only use it with wifi? Or can I also use my cellular network? Will I be charged extra if I do use the cellular over the wifi? (I have an unlimited data plan btw).

11 AnswersPhotography8 years agoMy iphone 5 randomly vibrates with no notifications. Could it be whatsapp?
So my iphone has been literally vibrating randomly throughout the day recently, with no new notifications or banners that I can see. Funnily enough, the random vibrations, to the best of my knowledge, didn't start until I downloaded whatsapp a week ago. Could the app have to do with it? What's happening? Thanks for any help you can give :)
1 AnswerCell Phones & Plans8 years agoShould I be upset with this guy?
There's this guy that, up until now, I thought was just this amazing man. We met online and have been getting along great (extensively flirting) for about a month. He had implied, although not directly stated, that we were, I guess, exclusive? Yeah, obviously I'm not too sure haha. So without his knowledge I've been stalking his twitter. Today he told a girl she was beautiful who I know is on student council with him, and thus they've been getting closer I'm sure over the school year. She called him cute in reply and favorited, retweeted it. Should I be worried, upset? Ugh I don't know, I really really like him but I don't want him to be like a player or anything....an I overreacting?

1 AnswerSingles & Dating8 years agoCan I change the way letters are typed in Microsoft Word?
I'm writing a Latin language homework assignment in Microsoft Word and I keep having to copy and paste certain accents over letters for literally every single word, such as amīc-ō. Is there a way I can make it immensely easier on myself by manually changing the typeface so instead of a regular letter o for example , it always has the accent I want over it, like ō whenever I want to type an o? Thanks for any help!! I mean I know people who write in other languages frequently have to have an answer for this, correct? Because the spanish language has a bunch of accents...
2 AnswersOther - Computers8 years agoAm I too fat to go on the roller coasters?
I'm going to Silver Dollar City amusement park and I looked online before hand at the tiny print on the website of rules and guidelines. In there it said that "larger or taller guests (including those who weigh more than 200 lbs, have a chest dimension of 52in or greater, or 40in waistline) may not be able to ride the following...." Some of those were kids rides, which I'm def not going to ride lol, but some were the faster fun roller coasters. I have NEVER had a problem before with not fitting in a coaster or feeling insecure but I'm 220lbs and 47in chest 41in waistline. Should I skip those fast, fun rides even though those were the ones I was most looking forward to? (Btw I'm heavy but I don't have like a huge fat roll across my belly.)

2 AnswersAmusement Parks8 years agoI'm insanely scared of bugs and need help!?
Hello! So there was a small cockroach in my bathroom today. I'm all sitting on the toilet, I look over and see it and panic. Literally hysterically weeping. Vowing I'd never ever go into that bathroom. Then after an hour of weeping, my mom said if I don't vacuum it up soon she would lock and key the other bathrooms. So I bloodcurdlingly screamed whilst vacuuming it and leaving it on for 10 minutes. Now I'm itchy all over (like I always am after seeing a bug). I can't sleep. The other day I saw a spider on my arm in bed and I screamed and slept in another room for 2 days. My absolute 100% worst fear in the world are grasshoppers and cicadas. Yet I don't mind bumblebees, ants, ladybugs... Here's the thing. I love bugs! Just not anywhere near me. I think they are so important to the environment, helpful as hell, and deserve respect. All that goes to hell when it's a grasshopper or in my house though. I want it gone! Please I really just want this phobia to go away. Preferably without help from a therapist. Any advice/tips? Thanks :)
1 AnswerPsychology8 years agoBest all around concealer?
Hello! I'm looking for a good concealer under $30 but I'm confused as to what I should get and need help! I want the concealer, basically, to be perfect, lol. It needs to cover undereye circles without being too dry and accentuating lines under the eye. It needs to cover blemishes really really well and last for a long time (this is probably slightly more important than concealing undereye bags bc while i always seem to have a blemish, i dont always have undereye circles). I also hate cakey concealer-my last concealer was liquid and seemed to Almost crust around my blemishes (and it wad Clinique too)! Lastly, I want a good quality product--like I enjoy mid-higher end cosmetics like benefit, Mac, tarte, etc. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!! :)
8 AnswersMakeup8 years agoFound a spider on me in bed and I need help?!?
Last night I was sleeping and then I felt itchy on my hand and then my arm. Enough so that I woke up out of my sleep and used my other arm to turn on the light. And lo and behold THERE WAS A GINORMOUS SPIDER MOVING UP MY ARM. Brown and hairy. I went berserk and shook it off my arm danced around and fled my room. I slept on the couch the rest of the night, itchy as hell. I just can't go back in my bed again, I'm scared! What do I do??

There are multiple polls that show that there are less Americans who identify purely as republican or purely as democrat, and there is an increase in "independents."

3 AnswersOther - Politics & Government8 years agoI was accused of cheating by my professor and I need help!?
I'm taking this online American government class at community college to get some credits out of the way even though I'm a poli sci major and have taken constitutional law and classes like that before. For this learning activity assignment it corresponded with some case I had learned about before in con law and so I used my notes from that class for that part of the assignment. I did not use anyone's work but mine for the assignment. I got a 0 for a grade and was given a lecture on how unconscionable cheating was, how lucky I am that she didnt fail me for the class, how i couldnt redo for a better grade, and she's going to keep a close eye on my work from now on. Ugh. I was bewildered. Out of curiosity I downloaded a plagiarism checker and found out what I used for the case from my con law notes was plagiarized from Wikipedia!! I must have copied a summary from wiki just to put in my notes for reference and it totally backfired!! Should I tell this to the professor or just take the zero? I mean I only need a c- or better for transient credit.
4 AnswersHigher Education (University +)8 years agoWho killed the sparrow and how do I prevent it from happening again?
I'm going to try and keep this short. Here's what happened today:
--my dog, usually thrilled to go outside, was afraid to go to the front yard
--I feed a large quantity of birds among them are grackles, mourning doves, cardinals, sparrows, other tweets. And a squirrel.
--I go outside to feed them and I notice a wing of a sparrow here, a claw over there, some bloody tendons right over here...
--there is a neighborhood cat that sleeps occasionally on our porch chairs
--was it a grackle?
--was it the cat?
--was it some other creature that also made my beagle scared to go outside?
Whodunit?? (Also the grackles are getting to be bullies so how do I keep them out of my yard?) thanks so much!
