    Spend a little more time traveling! Don't give up on your dreams so fast, you just finished culinary school. It will be a while before you "make it". Gordon Ramsey didn't do it over night. Joining the military isn't bad thing, it's just not your ideal career.

    don't give up on school. Fight to do what is needed for your son and leave your mother and her husband behind asap before bad things happen...

    Things won't change

    Don't buy the house

    Leave your job now and go back to school

    After your daughter is born you'll go through a rough 5 years, but find strength you never thought you had.

    I would've told my 7 year old and 115 pound self to stop eating so much unhealthy foods because I'll regret it in the future.

    There's only one thing that I currently would absolutely tell myself not to do, I've made lots of stupid decisions in the past ten years but almost every single one of them has probably gotten me to the best things I have now.

    Don't Move to NC to try to form a relationship with your sister in law and DEFINITELY do NOT have a baby for her. Actually I only have to go back 7 years.

    Wow there are so many points in my life I'd love to do this. Realistically, I am very happy with my life now - it just took a lot of trial and effort to get here.

    But here's what I'd tell myself:
    1. It's not too late - sure you already married him, but don't wait any longer, you're not happy, never was a good match - get out before he ruins you financially and it takes years to recover
    2. In a couple of years when you meet A$$hat realize immediately that every word that comes out of his mouth is a lie. It's the same song, just a different verse with him.
    3. Leave the job with the crappy boss before he makes your life a living hell
    4. In Sep, 2008 you'll ride your motorcycle to work every Friday. Don't take the curvy road to work! Your bike may recover, but your shoulder will never be the same!!!
    5. In 2009 you will meet a man named Sergio. He is awesome. Keep your eyes out for him!
    6. When your baby sister keeps telling you how terrific her Mac is, don't roll your eyes, go buy stock - as much as you can afford!!

    dont be such a victim to this Cancer... you beat it- you are stronger than this. Stop using it as an excuse to put on weight and isolate yourself.

    I'd like to go back twelve years and tell myself DON'T STOP WORKING OUT AND COUNTING CALORIES!!! Also, "Don't take that job at the auction company, the owner is abusive and crazy!!!"

    In 2000 I was the thinnest and healthiest I've ever been. Losing a job and moving to a highly stressful one, plus slacking off on healthy eating and exercise is what got me here today.

    Don't marry him he's going to become and addicted to pain killers and destroy your life.....

    Max Payne?

    I'd say to myself: Hey you, invent a network where users must register before using the site, after which they may create a personal profile, update their status, add other users as friends, and exchange messages, including automatic notifications when they update their profile.
