Mine does too. I am taking Protonix for it.

Interesting. I always drink a 32 oz bottle of water (which is about a liter I think) every morning before eating anything else. Not for any reason, I just like to rehydrate in the morning and find it helps wake me up. I have never noticed any other effects on my body from doing this...and it doesn't speed up weight loss,…

I need help in this area too. I wear plus size pants (size 18W-20W depending on the style as my thighs are just way too big), but always have that annoying gap in the waist! Not only that, but I can fit into petite tops (XL, but that is only to fit my bust, tops are always baggy around my waist, I am also broad…

You definitely should be fine! I am 5'4, size 18W, and have no issue fitting in the seats. My hips, butt and thighs are pretty large. I have seen much larger people get on planes!

I don't have shedding but I do have some hair loss due to trichotillomania. Ever since I was a child, I have always been twirling my hair and pulling it out one strand at a time, and sometimes even pulling it through my teeth (gross I know...but when I was little I actually chewed my hair in chunks and my hair was always…

When I had to start buying 18W pants. What happened to my size 8's!

I had a cyst on my ovary and had it (along with said ovary) removed back in 2011. That caused a huge hormonal outrage on whole system and I gained like 20 lbs in the two months following surgery. I maintained after that. I know many people say that hormones don't make you gain weight, but I beg to differ. (I may have been…

I was with my now husband for almost 4 years before getting engaged. We got married 2 years after that. We were also in a long distance international relationship, so we wanted to have lots of time to decide if we wanted to spend our lives together. I know people who have been dating for years and have no desire to marry.…

sounds yummy!

nope

Currently in a size 18W. I would love to get back to size 8, but would be happy at 10 or 12. Even 14 would be better than 18W! I don't want to go any lower than size 8.

I need to wear shoes because my feet get really sore otherwise. It feels like my arches are tearing (the only way I can think of to describe it). It just really hurts. I can go around the house in socked feet but I would never be able to work out barefoot! Even working in my kitchen I sometimes I have to wear my shoes…

I had lost 65 lbs starting in 2006, ending in 2008 when I got to my lowest weight of 135lbs. I had some medical issues and some stress (I am a stress eater). Due to many bad choices, I gained 90lbs between 2010 and now. I am currently at my absolute heaviest at 225lbs and even though I have been here off and on I am having…

I am in Maryland and my entire family is in Ontario (a few in Nova Scotia). This is our stay in MD year. My parents are coming down on Boxing Day for few days so that's good.

Avocado and cream cheese sushi!

I am sure we have ALL been there at some point. I know I have. Why does it matter?

Housewife and student! Former restaurant manager.

I hardly think of drinking diet pop as a dirty little secret. I drink it quite often. I also drink lots of water. Not a big deal really :)

Free! Part of my apartment lease.

Fish and asparagus. Yuck.

Hurt was actually written by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, covered by Johnny Cash.

Some people just don't talk. I am not a very social person at all and am intimidated by people that I don't know (sometimes even by people I DO know!). You are going to the gym to work out, and I see nothing wrong with keeping to yourself.

I love jeans and I think all my pants save for 3 pairs of dress pants (2 of which are still too small to fit back into) are jeans. That being said, I HATE jean shopping. I have fuller thighs and a fuller butt, and a smaller waist (smaller in proportion to my thighs at least. Anyway, every pair of jeans I own has a huge gap…

Stretch marks are natural. I have them on my legs, my breasts, and my sides. I don't let them get me down. I'm more embarrassed of people seeing my bare feet than my stretch marks :)

I refuse to eat seafood. It repulses me. I will eat sushi, if it is vegetarian. Canned meats gross me out. No spam for me! Bananas have to be in chip form. Asparagus

THANK YOU!
