memes? 🤔

crimsonotter262, you really should've figured out by now that typing in all caps feels like someone's screaming in your face—it's just super rude...

and honestly, looking at this 2.5-year-old post you dug up just to start a whole new thread... I don't think I've ever seen such a massive pile of nonsense on this board before 🙂

Look, if you really don't feel like wasting time Googling it, I can just drop the link right here 😁

I actually picked mine up at a Sephora over in downtown Nashville. I'm guessing you shouldn't have any trouble tracking it down... 🙂

I've been dealing with the exact same issues forever, and I actually posted about how I finally sorted everything out recently.

So, yeah—the Remington bikini trimmer. Look, it’s not quite as smooth as a straight razor shave, but honestly? It doesn't even matter when you finally get rid of all those annoying bumps... 🙄

Sure, you have to "trim" a little more often, but like I said, it's such a small price to pay 😁 😁

Nicole Davis7 said:Where I live, I basically have zero options when it comes to gynecologists. The last time I saw one—specifically because of some hormonal issues—she sent me off for bloodwork. I went back with the results, and she basically told me everything looked totally fine (?). The actual issue was this sudden breakout of acne and my hair thinning out, which really freaked me out. But when I took those exact same results to a local pharmacist (who has a pretty solid reputation), the guy practically crossed himself and told me that the hormones I had tested had absolutely nothing to do with what I was going through. So now, from that same guy, I’ve just been given some herbal tea and some pills to help with water retention... so we'll see how that goes.

Look, sorry if I sound harsh or whatever, that's just how I am—not trying to be mean at all. What I was trying to get at is that it’s honestly wild that someone who's 30 and has been on birth control for years knows so little about the pills or how their own body actually works.

I feel for you regarding the lack of doctors nearby, I really do, but please—for your own sake—go see a real specialist! No gynecologist with half a brain who actually cares about their patients would let someone take Yasmin for five straight years... which, by the way, isn't even just "contraception," it's a serious hormonal medication for a serious condition. Any side effects you're dealing with after five years of Yasmin are a big deal. Please don't just take whatever some "reputable pharmacist" hands you... go find a legitimate, professional doctor, explain everything you're feeling, and follow a real medical plan.

And I really hope you aren't taking this personally, but I just found what you wrote in your first post so incredibly strange... 🙂

Lisa Chase90 said:For my 20th birthday, I got a book on cancer and clinical oncology

Look, I know I’m probably not going to say anything life-changing here, but I gotta be real—that has to be one of the absolute worst birthday presents I've ever heard of...😱

Just get rid of the book. Seriously. Don't even keep it around—burn it, because there's something evil inside those pages. It might not feel better right away, and you might still find yourself spiraling and looking up symptoms in there, but just use Google instead... honestly, Google will give you an answer that (most of the time) doesn't fall under the heavy umbrella of cancer and clinical oncology anyway...😱

Nicole Davis7 said:just one more thing—can I just take the pill right before sex, or do I really have to be consistent and take it every single day? (I'm 30).

Honestly, this part is worth quoting—it's definitely worth reading again.

Maybe we should check a 🙏-a
too...

🙂

so bad...

Anonymous said:Regarding what he's complaining about—man, those pressure sores on his hips are seriously bad. I totally get why he can't deal with wearing that thing 24/7...

So, did he actually show those sores to the doctor who prescribed the brace in the first place? Like, did they even tell him those sores were fine to just ignore?

Anonymous said:So, if you can give me any advice... I’d really appreciate it... 😳

wellllllll, my advice? he needs to just listen to his doctors—seriously—unless he wants to spend the rest of his youth stuck in a wheelchair...

and as for you forgetting about the calcium pills... look, if those things could actually cure him, they wouldn't be telling him to stop wearing stuff that's bothering him for four weeks straight... 🙂

Anonymous said:So, look—he’s incredibly stubborn... he keeps pushing back and insisting he isn't going to wear it for the full four weeks.

genius 😍

Yeah, sure, there are plenty of pills out there, but none of them work on the stubborn, irrational, self-sabotaging types...

And I've got exercises too, but he just won't be bothered to actually do them... 👎

Brandon Thomas89 said:Jose Miller3, honestly, you don't even need Ozempic for a diet. 😘

Plus, Ozempic comes with some pretty unpleasant side effects:

Since Ozempic works by blocking fat absorption, that fat just passes straight through you, which can lead to oily or loose stools. You’re also looking at a lot more gas. It can cause frequent or sudden trips to the bathroom, and in some clinical trials, people even dealt with accidental leaks. The official advice is basically to wear dark pants and keep a spare change of clothes at the office just in case. To keep this from happening, you really have to stick to a low-fat, low-calorie diet. If you want to avoid the oily messes and bloating, you need to keep your fat intake down to about 15 grams per meal.

So yeah, essentially, fat just leaks out of you uncontrollably... 😲

Well, who said I needed it or wanted to see it? 🙂

Besides, like that lady at the spa said, they’d have to promise me way more than just 36 calories of protection before I’d even consider looking into it—if I ever actually needed it... 🥳

Also, Orlistat has some pretty unpleasant side effects:

But look, we aren't talking about the prescription stuff here—we're talking about its little brother, Alli, which you can get over the counter.

Since Orlistat's primary function is blocking dietary fat absorption, that fat gets passed out through your stool, which can lead to oily or loose stools (steatorrhea). Gas is also super common. You might deal with frequent or sudden trips to the bathroom, and there have even been rare cases of fecal incontinence in clinical studies; the Alli website suggests wearing dark clothing and keeping a spare outfit at work just in case. To keep this under control, you really have to skip the high-fat foods—the manufacturer basically tells you to stick to a low-fat, calorie-reduced diet. Reducing fat intake to around 15 grams per meal can help manage the oily stools and gas.

So, basically, fat just leaks out of your butt uncontrollably... 😲

Yeah, we know... 😁 😁 😁

mine is tucked away in one of those countless boxes 😬

we could always go ask some "grammar expert" 🙂

Edward Green said:From what I can tell, if the crowd keeps stuffing themselves with greasy food, that fat is just going to leak right out of them without them doing a damn thing. So... if they're happy about that, fine by me. 😁

I mean, yeah, but look—that’s just how Americans are... maybe they'll finally realize they're running low on fats while their sugar and protein levels stay totally fine, and then they'll just start devouring bags of sugar just to try and make up for that missing fat intake... 😬

Sam Hall15 said:Regarding obesity...
Look, this medication isn't some magic bullet or a total scam; it has a clear mechanism of action and produces real results, so it’s certainly not a subpar product. How much it actually helps any specific individual depends on a million different variables, so please don't just blame the drug 😁

Wow, talk about some aggressive, old-school American bias right there.

Just pure, unadulterated nonsense coming out of New York City... 😬

coppergardener said:Obesity! (tsk tsk...)

😳

seriously, you should be ashamed:

now I can't even edit my original post since I lost mod status...😢

Look, I know I'm digging up a pretty old thread here, but I just had to let everyone know that Alli is officially hitting the shelves in the States—and honestly, the rollout went exactly how I called it...

Now, I’m not trying to say "I told you so," but if you're actually curious, check out what Salon.com has to say about it (and we all know 😬Salon.com
is basically the gold standard for this stuff
)
.
The best part was definitely this line:

Not to get all philosophical, but if someone were to ask me how many calories it would take to get me to risk shitting myself in public, it'd be a hell of a lot more than 36.

Ugh, I already went ahead and messaged Dr. Ivan Grbac, but then it hit me... he's no longer with us 😢

He was seriously one of the most incredible doctors—and just genuinely amazing people—I've ever had the privilege of knowing 🙂

And honestly, what’s even worse is that the press release says these amoebas are basically just bacteria—they just don't realize it yet🤣 🤣

Ugh, seriously... I was finally getting used to using Complete Comfort Plus All-in-One Solution, and now I feel like I need to rush to the pharmacy and stock up before they pull it from the shelves entirely😢

You could always just ask one of the admins to block you from that subforum, and then—boom—it's gone from your sight forever.

Honestly, you’d probably be the first person I know who actually asked for a partial ban... but hey, if that's what you want, they'll likely 😁 >> 😁
just make it happen...
