OMG! OMG! I know we talked about you trying to get pregnant before, so I'm so glad to hear this! Congratulations!

We're gonna do it.

I'm totally gonna do it.

Right. So. Jezebel movie liveblog, right? We'll host it on the Powder Room, have a little bit of that pez-tasting wine, and mock the trolls who show up to talk about how this movie speaks truth to power.

Actually, photos of Michelle were released yesterday.

Its really, really good. I think it sounds a little like Outside at places, in a good way, and I haven't taken it out of my cd player in over a week.

I actually hadn't seen this thread when it first went up. I'm sorry to see that the OP couldn't explain when a bunch of femininazi's physically assaulted him for opening the door for them.

I'm gonna go get some pop corn and wait for tathomas's response. It might take a while. He's been busy commenting on every single article ever written on the site today. I guess school must be having a teacher inservice day.

Donoghue said she was inspired by the case of the German man who kept his daughter locked up for years and fathered a number of children with her. There's been a number of cases like this — when I was a kid, the Gary Hednick case was discovered and made a huge impression on me, hearing about it in the local papers for…

Though, to be fair, goth has it roots in punk, and the two genres have a lot of ties.

There's a hideous painting of Winona Ryder stashed in an attic somewhere.

Honestly, I'm not sure if I'm pleased or frustrated either. Maybe 'bemused' is the best word. Don't get me wrong — I'm happy I did it and I'm pleased with the results, I just find it interesting that now I put so much less effort into losing weight and am so much more successful at it.

This one of the areas where PCOS is looking at further classification — some people have fertility issues (I didn't), some people find BC helps with their symptoms (I did), lots of people have insulin problems (me), some people don't have the weight cycling (not me). Lots of people don't even have the cysts — but talk…

Actually the common treatment now is a combination of BC and insulin treatment. BC for the hormones and cysts (if you have them), insulin treatment for other aspects, and then layer in additional medications depending on your personal symptoms.

Absolutely feel free to jump in. My take on what you're asking:

I think that there's an awful lot of science that points towards weight loss being more complicated than a simple calories in, calories out equation.

The conversation needs to be divorced from morality — ie being fat is not a value judgement.

You're better…

I had to cut back on the rigerous logging and exercise because it's honestly unsustainable at those kinds of levels over the long run. I do log my food online, but I don't kill myself if I miss a day. And I don't do 20 hours of exercise a week anymore — the level of effort I was putting in to get a handle on this was…

Take my money! Take it!

I know! I am so sad the redesign didn't work. I started shopping at JCPs last year for the first time since I was dragged in there as a kid and I recommend it to everyone! The styles improved, the prices were great, and they actually had a great plus size selection.

In my extensive PCOS -diet related research, I did come across a couple of books that said soy was problematic for PCOS suffers. But then there were other books who said it wasn't. Its such a crapshoot.
