Hi tyra!
Well I’m not exactly sure if this is the right way to e-mail you or not, but this is my first time on your website and I couldn't really figure it out...anyways..I’m 15 and I have been searching for an organization that is safe to travel with and that will take me to Africa or some other place that is in poverty that I can volunteer at for a couple of weeks. I have always wanted to do something that would help others (such as joining the Peace Corps, habitat for humanity, the army reserve, or the National Guard). I have talked to my parents and they don’t want me to lose the amount of freedoms I would if I were to join a branch of the army, but they said that they would be willing to pay for me to travel somewhere to help others in need. after watching your show today about plastic surgery and the research that needs to be done in order to keep yourself out of danger, I have realized that I should probably do the same to find a legit organization that would provide and opportunity for me to do some volunteer work. I don’t necessarily want to travel out of the country, but I would love to travel out of state at the least. Tyra, I know that you have an extremely busy life, and may not get a chance to respond to my e-mail, but it would be extremely helpful if you could give me some suggestions.

Thank you so much!

Ok. One great advice is to definitely not put salt on anything. Salt is horrible and can make you retain a lot of water weight.

I do not agree with eating a salad before the main course. I feel one should have a good filling appetizer that has protein such as edamame or peanuts.

The salad should be eaten before the dessert.

Sometimes when I want to skip dessert, I will chew orbit gum or eat chilled fruit.

Try drinking a full glass of water before every meal. This fills you up so you don't desire to just keep eating.

Put away the salt and pepper shakers from your table setting. "Out of sight, out of mind!"

Hi Tyra,
I can't find the e-amil link that youre supposed to be able to click on so I thought I'd just write something to you here since my issue pertains to myself. I have a HUGE forehead and am really self consious about it. I don't even go to pool parties and I hate being out in the wind because I feel like everyone's staring at me cause it's so ugly. I have tried bangs but still I really want to swim but I always make up excuses in front of my friends because I don't want them to see me with my hair all back and out of my face where you can see my forehead. Any tips?! Please help

Tyra I tend to eat a lot of healthy foods, which helps with keeping me at a maintainable weight. Lately I've been cutting out coffee and soda out of my diet and I feel better and what not. I now only stick to juices, milk, and water. I have to say to anyone that drinks, cut back, its a weight gainer, unless you drink one red glass of wine, then your not helping maintaining the weight. Its okay to have a sliver of cheese cake or a small bowl of ice cream once in awhile, but if you do it every night, then you have to stop, if you can that is. Its about will power to and believing in yourself and feeling you can do this, you can get healthy and feel great. So forget ice cream on a hot summer day, and opt for some plain yogurt with fresh fruit that you can cut up and mix in with it instead, its yummy, healthy, and you'll thank yourself in a week that you didn't eat the ice cream instead...

Hi Tyra,

I love your show. You have very informative and interesting shows. I learn a lot. I was in the audience for the show with Chris Brown last year but was unable to view it. I tried searching your website for that show but was unable to find it. I was wondering if you can help me.

To keep myself from overeating because I've waited too long between meals by keeping a can of unsalted pistacios in my car and at my desk. I also read eating 10-12 nuts between meals makes your appetite go away.
