i am in my early-mid 20s and live at home and work f/t. i am attempting to shed the 30 pounds i gained while in college with a sensible diet and exercise. i have lost about 15 already and have some more to go. generally, i am pretty good on the diet but when i do cheat, and my mom sees me, she launches into a lecture/tirade about how if i want to reach my goals i shouldnt sabotage myself. it is not supportive and helpful at all. it is mean and judgemental and makes me feel bad and want to eat more. she yells at me like im a child if she sees me eat something "bad" or makes suggestions about what choices i should make at dinner. i find it completely overbearing and obnoxious, esp. considering i am in my 20s and am generally pretty good about my eating. me, my therapist, and my father all tell her to be quiet because it's obnoxous and counter-productive but i still hear a lecture at least once a day. how can i get her to stop?

I have been on a diet for 5 days. I have lost 2 lbs. But im not so sure, because my weight scale seems to be a bit broken. So i dont know the actual number. But if someone could tell me their schedule of what they do everyday, like... what you eat, when or how long you excersise, etc.
Or you could just give me some tips to keep me going.

Ok, earlier this evening I asked her politely and maturely if I could permanently dye my hair. But she said no - I'm not old enough.
But this is something I REALLY want. What would be the best way to get her to change her mind? Ask again? Make a presentation? Write a paper?
What should I do?

Computers (default) text is in print.

My cousin (who is now 7 years old) said that she never learned cursive. And most younger people don't write in cursive. (I don't). I talked to my grandma about this, and she said that she doesn't know how to print.. So I was thinking, is this one of the ways computers will take over the world?

I'm trying to find a song that describes how my b/f and I are uncertain of us being together in the future (because of something serious). And perhaps, how much I'm trying to work on our relationship...but I keep pushing him away. And how he doubts us being together in the future. Help?

I feel bad by how I was treated by my family.Well I found out that my grandmother was dying of colon cancer.I hadn't seen her in almost thirthteen years, I was around 12 at the time.She would help me out so often, she sometimes helped me buy my schoolbooks, clothes, whatever I needed she was pretty much there for me, she even took me and my brother in when we were homeless.So thirthteen years went by and I never went to visit her, so when I went to go see her on her death bid, I just broke out into tears..my cousin cursed me out, called me all kinds of b words, my other family members didn;t really say much too me either., after thirthteen years! so keep in mind I'm working full time and going to school full time.I stayed for three days, and I left knwing that my grandmother was dying, So my aunt cursed me out and told me to never call her again, and that I think "I'm a celebrity", and how could I not come see my grandmother

When ever I watch politcal coverage on national news or online, they always rate a candidates chances of winning by how much money they have raised. Now, with the extremely vast audience the Internet has, a candidate can reach out to scores of millions from just one interview or rally. So is being the highest grossing candidate really all that important anymore?
