    Are you on the pill, Kirby? I find that can cause boobs to grow a fair bit.

    Yup, I'm on Cerazette. Not a fan, as well as boob growth it's making me moody as hell.

    Have you tried other pills? I had to try about 4 different ones (over the course of a very moody year) before I found one that suited me.

    This is the 2nd one I've tried (was on Ovranette before, but had a blood pressure reading high enough at the 3 month checkup to be taken off any combined pill - I blame work stress). Could be another change to come...

    I tried Ovranette and went mental on it. Also tried Yasmin and Microlite, neither of which suited me for very different reasons. Have been on Marviol for about 4 years now and really no issues with it. Probably went up one cup size at the start but that's it.

    My whole life is up in the air, I don't know where I'm going with it, I've hard choices to make, the three people closest to me in the world are in different countries and working so hard that I never get to talk to them and I'm just really short of people to talk to about everything!!

    Oh god, Cerazette was the worst pill I ever tried. I had been on Dianette and Yasmin, but they sent me a bit loopy so the GP put me on Cerazette to see if the mini pill suited me.

    Well i was never so down in all in all my life. Literally felt like I was worthless and I hated everything about myself. I stopped eating properly (as I felt really fat), and I still can't quite get over those particular feelings. It was the worst feeling in the world, and coming off it has made a massive difference to my state of mind. I haz happies again (mostly).

    If you feel it doesn't suit you, get off it as soon as you can. There are tonnes of other options out there, and when you find the right one you'll wonder why you ever stuck out the Cerazette :D

    Like you chose to be an 'awkward' size! I'd love to be able to buy cheap and cheerful bras in Penneys or Dunnes; 20-30 euro a pop for one bra means I haven't bought a new one in about a year :(

    I find Dunnes great for bras, Penneys not so much. Everything in Penneys seems to go to the size below me, I'm 38DD. In any case I think Dunnes have nicer stuff. :)

    LosyGirly, hope you're okay.. You can definitely talk to us here and PM is always open. :)

    I discovered that the chemist in my hometown that I never go into has a Catrice stand.. :D Only actually saw Catrice stuff down in Penneys in Carlow for the first time the other day and was saying it was a shame it wasn't closer to me. :rolleyes:

    You're so lucky! I actually loved having no periods, that and no babies were the only good things to come out of Cerazette for me :rolleyes:

    I'm looking into getting the IUD now, I hope the GP will fit it for me, as I'm only 20 and have no children.

    Have you tried the patch or the nuva ring? Or the implant?

    Don't think its very common to have the IUD when your that young and with no children.

    Ok so.... I was wearing size 24 jeans last May :o (don't judge!)

    This morning I bought a pair of size 10 skinny jeans :D

    There was a little breathing in needed, but who cares, jeans always stretch a bit

    :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    Edit: Just in case you didn't pick up on it, I'm seriously seriously excited and smiley now :-)

    Thanks... It's all been done by just making simple changes like using the stairs instead of escalators, walking instead of driving, eating well and finding new hobbies that involve being active.

    I feel like a totally different person :D

    Just found out the girl that does my waxing is no longer working there. She's moved back to f'in Limerick.

    And waxing does hurt, I'm sure the pain varies though for everyone, depending on your pain threshold & what part of you you're getting waxed :)

    I've been getting waxed for a while. I was worried about it the first time as I don't have a very high pain threshold. I don't know what I was worrying about it, it's uncomfortable but not sore as such (IMO obviously), I'm more worried about having someone look quite that close at my lady bits!:eek:

    Ya, I worked with some beauty therapists and they don't even think about it! But me, I find it strange. Esp when they get out the tweezers and start looking really closely! But nothing beats it, love the clean feeling after a wax

    Told ya it wouldn't hurt.

    It amazes me that some places still use strip wax on the nether regions. It's just pure torture.

    I'm having a smashy day. Smashed 2/3 plates this morning and then a bottle of smirnoff ice smashed in my boot.

    Car smells like a dodgy nightclub now.

    It's not, but this happened as an aside to the mouth thing. I was sulking that I'm hungry, boyfriend gave me tea and one cookie, I dipped the cookie in and it promptly broke and sank. I shouted for "Spoon!! Cookie Overboard!!", he brought me one, I fished it out...dropped it again and a plonk of tea hopped out and down my dress, lovely :rolleyes:

    Lycon is a hot wax, so it opens the pores so the hair comes out easier, therefore it's less painless. All in theory!

    I was just pouring soup out of a pot for lunch and somehow flicked it with the spoon and got it all over my jumper and down my jeans. Messy!

    I've been getting Brazilian waxed since I was about 18, don't even feel it anymore. I could have been lasered 10 times over with the money I've spent on it over the years, ah well!

    Have to give a big shout-out to McAllister's fishmongers in Lucan. Fab shop, beautiful fish. Went in there to get a load of stuff - €53 worth, to be exact - and the owner's son gave it to me for 20 quid cause he used to work with my sister :D

    Just to be pedantic about it - fornication means sex between people who aren't married (to one another).

    So, technically she's probably factually accurate. Not that that means her actual argument should hold any weight, mind you!

    They can manipulate it to pull it in the right direction for the growth apparently.

    Yeah, she didn't even have to get me to hold myself. It doesn't adhere to the skin as much as the strips do. Eyebrows are looking smashing too.

    Thats brilliant. I know how hard it is, ive droped form a 14/16 to a size 12, Ive been the same weight for a month and cant get bellow it. I threw out all my size 14s and 16's yesterday - they are going to someplace in africa, they were all (3 black bags full) collected at 8am this morning...

    I want to stay a size 12 but could do with losing another 9 pounds.... I have no desires to be a 10 or 8 but i dont want to see another 14 ever again....
