Ok, this has nothing to do w/ my weight, but I was wondering if a couple girls could help me out. I got my period today, and I'm freaking out. I live w/ my dad, and I'd feel weird telling him...and I have gym tommorow, and I don't know if I can use a tampon. Pleez help.

Yes, I would tell your dad, but try and skip gym, you need some time to get used to doing active stuff w/ your period.

Jenny's right, just tell your dad, he should know, and he'll understand.

Tell your dad..just tell him you need to talk to him. I had the same problem cuz I live with just my dad too,but don't worry,he'll understand. But if you still feel uncomfy call your one of your friends that are girs and ask them if they have any pads, you don't wanna use a tampon at first..just cuz... well email me if u need any more info @ Xrockgurl88X@aol.com
