Yup, yup, yup. This was me last time, and this is me right now (even though I’m only 20 weeks). I did/do feel churlish complaining about what was a complication-free pregnancy, knowing that so many women have it worse, but I think some people just hate being pregnant and some people love it, and so be it. Yeah it’s

I’m about 35 weeks pregnant and I MISS MY BODY!!! I don’t really know how much I weighed before I got pregnant, but I know how my body felt, and worked, and looked, and I miss that so, so much. I was strong and fit, I had stamina, I had beautiful arms, legs, butt and abs. I never had back pain. I hate that I can’t

But what happens to the excess skin after the fat disappears?

you have to be SO careful...that’s what I really hate about all the get-in-shape talk, because your body is still super loosey-goosey bendy after having your baby, for a good 6 months. All that relaxin is still kicking around and it’s easy to injure yourself in ways you might not think of. I’d see an RMT or even just

Mine did too and I don’t even have a kid. I think they speed up the changes but it happens to everyone eventually.

We try really hard not to read blogs and what not about parenting. My baby weight is here for as long as it’s going to be and I’m so OKAY with that. It’s other mom’s who insist I have to want to lose the weight. I eat right, I take walks with the kid and I lead a somewhat healthy lifestyle, I just happen to have a few

It's called a wattle! Giblets are guts!

Like others have pointed out, diet and exercise only affect total body fat percentage, not body fat distribution.

I don’t see why this needs to exist. Chin lipo and tucking doesn’t mess up the rest of your face and is pretty subtle as cosmetic procedures go. This seems to have more potential downsides, and what happens if you get rid of the fat but the excess skin from stretched out fat chin still exists? It’s not addressing that

Yeah, not really a factor. I know fat people with no chin fat and thin-ish people with loads of it. And that’s assuming that eating healthy always makes you thin, which like, naw.

Crazy idea, just bear with me here for a second...what if you have a double chin even though you are thin, active, and healthy, as loads of people do?

I work in drug research and I was talking to an investigator today, and she said that the company probably kept the possible uses really narrow in their application to the FDA to increase its chance of passing. Once its approved, they can always resubmit it for other uses once it has become generally accepted

supportive comments for Islamophobic activist Pamela Geller, who he called “a very good-looking woman.”

Can we focus on the police violence against these kids, actually?

We masturbate furiously?

This. See: Aspirin. I’m not saying this is safe, just that we need to see incidence to understand how dangerous it really is.

Well, we are the people who use the most lethal neurotoxin known to man to treat forehead wrinkles.

It seems like the information that dire side effects are possible isn’t that useful without knowing the probability of them occurring. Even some of the most common (and casually taken) medicines include the possibility of serious side effects.

Do you mean cosmetic birth defects too? I don’t understand the distinction

Sounds great... I mean, you end up with no chin fat, and no chin skin.
