I'm sorry if this comes across as judgmental, but the only person that I knew who gained more than five pounds freshman year had major depression in the middle of the year and dealt with it through eating really unhealthily and not leaving her bed, but most of my friends drank and ate pretty much as much as they…

Please, please, PLEASE do not put the photo of the bed bug where it turns up on the mainpage. PLEASE. I've been through this - got them from used baby furniture, found them when I was on bedrest, had them when I was immediately postpartum, spent thousands of dollars to get rid of them, had them come back - all in…

i'll wait until that study comes out, thank you.

LOL I don't care what you think a normal body is or does, you still don't understand what normal means. Thanks for playing tho!

This is a beautiful, lovely article which I shall be clutching to my bosom in adoration.

Unless you're some kind of charitable organization don't invite me to a big party and then whine that you need my help to pay for it.

Not everyone with a metabolic disorder gets diagnosed at such a young. For many just getting doctors to consider testing them for a hormonal disorder takes over a decade because of prejudices against fat people. Congratulations on your diagnosis and subsequent lifestyle choices, but you have to acknowledge that you…

Nah... I totally empathize with her.

It's easy for you to be self-righteous about this if it is fairly easy for you to have an orgasm. But for those of us for whom this is very difficult, even with people who know what they are doing and are really trying their best, it's a LOT more complicated. I've never had an orgasm with a person other than myself,…

I agree with the theory behind this, HOWEVER...

You have absolutely no idea what I do or do not do. You don't know what I eat, how I exercise, or how my metabolism works. You don't know my family history.

This is my problem too, and the weird thing is, I'm an AA-cup. I frequently wear A-cups because they do less damage to the breast tissue under my arms, but good lord do they ever gape in the front. I am yet to find a single brand or model that makes wider cups in AA-sizing. Add the fact that ideally, I like my bras to…

I’m going to vent here. I am not a medical professional, and my guy doesn't do lungs, so this is just my related experience as an admin looking through the window up close and personal. Also, there probably is no actual point to this post, I am not a professional writer, and I have had gin, so apologies for grammar…

please please please don't advocate people use hot water from the tap for cooking purposes! that water has run through the sludge in your hot water heater and it is awful. it includes all kinds of grit and bits of tuberculated water main that fragmented off during flushing and made their way to a final resting place…

I think the problem with calling someone you see an "unkempt bedraggled slob" is you have NO idea why they're dressed the way they are. It's easy to tell someone else that "putting effort" into their clothing is easy when you're not in their shoes. What about the single mom who has to drag herself from work to kids…

"There's no excuse for looking like you've been dragged through hell backwards by groundhogs gone beserkers."

For me the nadir was near the beginning where she rips her skirt at work. That is not funny. That is the nightmare of any overweight person. Sure, I laughed. But I was cringing. And when it happened the second time outside the club with her white dress, I didn't laugh. I just shook my head in regret that it's come to…

I want to like this. But it feels...icky.

That's Ovechkin's fiance, Maria Kirilenko.

because wearing that shirt isn't going to magically turn you into a lustful cookie monster.
