mehale I am so very sorry for what you are having to go through. I have had many bad experiences with nursing homes in the past - both as a family member and as an employee. My Great Grandmother was dropped and her hip was broken as a result. We lost her not too long...

mehale I think what she is saying about the nursing home is that they should have noticed the change in her habits and actions. I would also have to say they should have noticed the changes. However, if they are understaffed in the nursing department - both RNs,...

ItTakesAllSorts Sadly women are their own worst enemy and it seems that the competition among these women is to do with their size. However, if we look at reality are there many women who do fit into this Lolly on a stick syndrome. Some how I do not think so. We seem to...

Y2J_Lionheart I agree. What the **** is wrong with having some extra weight as long as you're healthy? The looks? I'm sure that they're just egotystical and think that all fat people are unattractive, when they're the ones liking the ultra skinny people. I would much rather...

mommy20212004 I just had my son two months ago and with summer pretty much here I am really starting to feel the pressure to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight. I don't want to be 90 pounds, I just want to look decent in a bikini and I want to be able to fit into my summer...

teleios hmmm. i guess it has something to do with media and how it portrays skinny women as desirable, so more and more women want to be skinny. it's good though, that some portions of the fashion industry are seeing the potential dangers of having really skinny...

Calais I think its really dangerous if they are harming themselves. I am 5 foot 2 and weigh 42 kgs. I am really stick thin and people call me annorexic. I have been this way for many years. It is horrible sometimes and I feel really self concious about it.

samtaylorskykierajen I agree with you , I am five feet two and a half inches and weigh one 114 lbs and find that I am much too small as it is . I am not healthy and I know I am not and all one has to do is look at me to realize that . Although I have been able to gain some weight...

emeraldisle You're mom is so right on that. Twiggy was the first one to really make it big with that super skinny look. If you ever want to see her she does a little guest spot in the Blues Brothers. She plays the woman at the gas station. Her measurements though during...

Amber I asked my mom once when being skinny became the most popular thing. She said it when Twiggy appeared on the scene. She became popular and people in the industry began to pay more attention to those with her body type. With TV expanding to so many avenues,...

ctrymuziklvr Media is to blame for the skinny craze. Always has and always will be. They keep trying to get the "larger" woman into the spotlight but that always seems to die out so fast. Your so right about it being unhealthy but I think too skinny doesn't look all that...

jacki3 i would have to disagree with you and basically agree with what the others have said. people kill for various reasons and they will always find a way to kill, even without guns and knives or spears and swords. you should be more afraid of hunger and poverty,...

Gemmygirl1 Unfortunately, i'm sure there were senseless killings before guns were even invented so that phrase does kind of make sense. Think about it - in the old days, instead of shooting people to death, they used to stone them, there were still thing for killing...

silvernutbar I hate to sound negative and be in opposition to you, but it really is true that guns don't kill, people do. Despite how much you hate that saying even if guns didn't exist it would be, 'bows don't kill people, people do' People can and will kill each other...
