    I personally don't think that being able to see someones bones through their skin is beautiful and/or healthy.

    I know I may have just a b*tchy attitude but I am personally sick of Hollywood and everything attached to it. I get sick and tired of certain stars being crammed down my throat as though they are some kind of god(s). <<<- Sorry for the rant.

    Cool I gained 15 lbs since December!

    I got on depo in december. I was already about 20 pounds overweight(clinically) And lo and behold, depo sent me over the edge...I weigh about 197 bow, at 5 foot 7 inches. I have good bone structure, and broad shoulders so I dont look 200, maybe 180 lol, but I sure feel it, that depo, I swear, I just do not get full! I binge eat all the time now and it's like a bottomless pit. oy...Im not continuing with depo, for a host of reasons, hopefully this new appetite goes out the door with it! Rachel
