Why do I keep loosing weight, and how do I slow down my metabolism?

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010
Jessica asked:


I don’t understand…I eat a ton…I don’t work out…I drink a protien drink and eat a protien bar everyday, I am italian so I eat cards like bread and pasta…and I can’t gain weight. I even eat junk food/sweets sometimes, but I just loose weight, or maintain the weight I am at. I don’t have diabetes, or a thyroid problem, I just have a high metabolism… I am a pretty petite person ( 5′3 size 2 with small bones), but still, you would think I could just gain a few pounds! If I don’t eat a lot or often, I get shakey and lightheaded.

I would like to be able to work out with out dropping any weight, how can I do this? I have tried lifting some light weights, but this still speeds up my metabolism and then I start to feel shakey. Right now I eat six-10 times a day, cause I am always hungry.

My whole family is small/thin, so it is a genetic thing. It seems to bet getting faster then more I age.

How to play barre chords. I have small hands?

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010
Zack S asked:


I’m trying to play songs like Free Bird and Hotel California on my 12-string acoustic.

On my electric guitar, I can kinda play the barre chords, but on this I can’t at all.

It’s not so much that my fingers are too weak, but rather that they are not long enough to hit the notes properly. To put it simply, my hands are about the size of a petite 12-year-old girl’s. It makes some stuff kinda difficult.

Basically, I’m looking for some tips on playing them (I don’t have the cash to get a new guitar or modify this one.)

Or some other ways to play an F, F#, and Bm.

Oh, and I’m not a newb asking a dumb question either. I’ve been play for a few years and I’m rather good, I just can’t barre.

Any help would be appreciated.
