That's a little overly simplistic. My best friend is a T1, and until she got a pump, she couldn't regulate her blood sugar well enough to be able to do do any kind of exercise since her blood sugar would crash almost instantly. She was really good with her diet (was diagnosed at 4 years old), but still (according to…

Yup, been there, done that. It definitely made things even harder for me. Though I got a kick out of the fact that I went to see my relatives in Paris, they all said how great I looked. I've seen photos of that visit since, and I looked frail and ill. Gah.

Huh, that sucks! Which model do you have— the Mio, or the "regular" one? I have the regular one, don't know if that makes a difference (would be disappointing if so). I use it on level 3 or 4 (4 being the highest), but only every other day. And just spend the amount of time it tells me to on my nose as per the beeps…

I am 35 and have tried every other suggestion made to here in the replies, and the only thing that works for me is my Clarisonic, that I just got a few months ago. No more black heads, at all. If you look *really* close, you can still see the pores on my nose, but they are clean with nothing in them, so don't show…

Ugh, my aunt just died from that earlier this week. Awful illness.

I live in DC, and most hilarious to me are the scenes in Homeland of "downtown Washington, DC" and "Farragut Square"...which are so very obviously filmed in downtown Charlotte, NC. I especially like the 30-story buildings in shots of "DC", given that DC has height restrictions with no buildings taller than about 12…

Since Portugal is in Europe, and not Latin America, wouldn't it be inaccurate to call Justice Cardozo "Latino"?

Yes, because my comment is trolling, right. And I'm sure a look at my comment history will show what a troll I have been in the past, too!

Meh, I find a lot of child actors kind of insufferable, I think it comes with the territory—theater kids have to be confident and spunky and emotive to be decent actors. I don't think Quvenzhane is particularly immature or unrefined, I just think she's like a lot of kid actors. And I'm definitely not jealous, and I'm…

"I want to beat the hell out of that Deb bitch with a baseball bat."

Yeah, the commenter wasn't talking about you, since you a) run after your child when they run off, and b) pack up and leave even food is uneaten when your child(ren) is turning into a pumpkin, as you say. The commenter is talking about parents who would just sit there and keep eating as their child runs laps around…

Actually, many hospitals have their own privacy policies that forbid staff from discussing a patient and his or her case (even without using the patient's name) in the hallway or the cafeteria where they can be overheard by the public. So *if* this hospital has such a policy, I believe her public FB post discussing a…

Someone who had a stillborn baby and is dreading the next appointment where she might find out it's happened again? Also, the time and date of the appointment were implied by the doctor's post. Between that and the identifying reference about a past stillborn birth might allow someone to put two and two together. This…

It's "Kitzbuehel", not "Kitzenbuehel".

For me it's usually not a problem (coffee drinker too), but I have it almost any time I go on a long flight, like 6 hours or longer. It's a combination of the inactivity and dehydration. Also had it terribly once after leg surgery. Again, inactivity, and then the narcotic pain meds, which are notorious for causing…

And mail them as a picture?? Instead of just sending as a Word attachment, or just copy/pasting the text into an email?

Yup, that was the line that pushed me over, too.

My apologies for not being able to keep up with three other disparate comment threads, nor hitting refresh 3 times beofre submitting reply just in case someone got there beofre me while I was typing.

If she didn't tell them her income level, they were probably just relaying the full price over the phone. Most affiliates charge on sliding scale, so it might be worth a call back.

I think she meant colposcopy (which is for the cervix), not colonoscopy which is, well, for the colon!
