I want to look my best for him!?
Question:
1. I have pretty fair skin and tan only after going through a painful burn. Anyway to get around that?
2. I want to lose like 20 pounds (I'm 16 and about 5'7", so being 125 isn't ridiculous, is it?). I'm a vegetarian with asthma, so running is out of the question. Any diet/exercise ideas?
3. Any guys or girls know if guys often randomly change their minds about how much they like a girl or what they think of how they look?
thank you all so much for any help

It's okay to want to look your best for a man you like.
1. Try a tanning lotion. Long-term sun exposure and sunburn destroys important skin cells involved in the immune system and increases your chances of getting cancer. Using tanning lotions and Sunless Tanning Products help you achieve a deep, healthy tan, while minimizing or preventing the harmful effects from the sun.
2. I personally recommend the Glycemic Index Diet. It is a healthy long term eating plan that uses science to lose weight and maintain weight loss. For more information go here: http://www.gidiet.com and http://www.glycemicindex.com.
As far as exercise goes, I recommend 30 minutes of cardio 4-5 times a week along with some muscle toning activities like weight training. Another good idea is to get a workout video like pilates and Abs of Steel.
3. People often change their opinions on the way people look by getting to know them. A lot of times, as you see peoples' personalities, they will become more or less attractive. Have you ever noticed how a guy will become cuter once you realize how sweet and/or funny he is. My point is, if he likes you as a person, he will like the way you look, too.
Actually 125 pound for someone who is 5'7 is average. You should not go below 118. It would be unhealthy. If a guy likes you they should not change thier mind about you just because of weight. If they do, don't bother with them.
I'm trying to lose weight too and it's sooo hard. My aunt is using a weight loss product and it's really working for her. I'm gonna try it and I recommend you try it too. Check their website at

ok first of all.. don't get burned... if you're this worried about your appearance.. years of damage will make you age faster.. always use a sunscreen if you are going into the sun.. (i even use them in tanning beds..lol.. although your'e not supposed to.. you will actually tan faster that way.. get a little natural sun and help it along with a self tanner.. there are so many good ones out there now.. use one for fair skin and exfoliate really well first.. put some sugar in a cup and add honey to it... honey is a natural humectant and will draw moisture to the surface from the inside out.. soak in a warm bath first and then stand up and exfoliate your whole body with the sugar/honey mixture let it sit on your skin for awhile and then loofah it off... apply a regular moisturizer especially to your knees elbows and ankles and then apply a self tanner ( use gloves) most of them recommend leaving it on for 3 hours but i am fair and do it for about 2 hours... a nice natural healthy look...
secondly.. not every man likes stick women.. if you eat healthy and exercise .. walking and pilates are great to still look very feminine without bulking up, you will look healthy and trim (pilates is very elongating).
If you must lose weight, try the South Beach Diet.. you can lose weight in days.. but as little as you need to lose .. I would only start at Phase 2...
Keep your hair trimmed and in great condition and wear very natural looking makeup emphasising your eyes and smile..
I have been a professional makeup artist for years and the feed back I get from men is that they do like a woman who uses her makeup to enhance , not heavy makeup.. when you're tan don't be afraid to use a brighter pink blush and use it on the apples of your cheeks and brush it across the top of your nose.. (bronzers leave you looking pretty dull) ,
here are some great tips i use all the time for a pretty natural eye that pops ..( have a professional tweeze, wax or thread your brows) sweep your lids first with a light to med shadow top it off using a very light color up near your brow then for natural looking liner that lasts all day and doesnt smudge use a dark brown shadow, get a good brush that is small thin and on the harder side and wet it.. dipping it into the dark shadow .. work it into the brush ( a few times) and then holding the outside corner of your eye blend it into your lash line... use dark brown mascara instead of black ... finish with a lip gloss.. he will be stunned by how fresh and pretty you look...
One last thing.. too many girls are wearing their clothes so tight it makes them look heavier and feel fatter.. choose great jeans that sit naturally on your hips ( not the ultra low ones.. they make even skinny girls look heavy!) and wear a top that suits your neckline.. if you have pretty shoulders, show them off.. if your neck is shorter make sure its a v neck.. if you have broad shoulders dont wear scoop neck lines.. ( v necks always make you look longer and skinnier) and wear cute shoes as often as possible ( sneakers are for exercising and outdoor activities) Men love seeing a woman looking feminine ( I promise!)
The point is .. take care of yourself.. pamper yourself a little everyday.. start with the inside out...exercise will make you feel great.. drinking water will hydrate your body and help you keep water weight off, and it does wonders for your skin.. and eat as healthy as you can...
If you love yourself and are confident you are looking your best.. all the boys will think so too.. and keep in mind.. ultimately it's you that has to be happy with the way you look.. guys in your life will come and go and if you keep worrying about what they like you'll never figure out what it is YOU like..
I know I've probably given you more information than you've asked for but I promise these things work.. guys are most attracted to girls who take care of themselves, (not high maintenance of course..lol) have great hair, great smiles and eyes that shine with confidence... now whether they like big breasts or small ones, are leg men or butt men I can't tell you that depends on the guy..lol .. I do know that 90% or more men like their women to look like women..
(A thought for you.. I know she's not very popular right now.. but Britney Spears in her first videos weighed 135 lbs.. and she's shorter than you.. think back to how many guys thought she was stunning back then.. when she looked fresh and healthy)
Wishing you all the best!!
