So, I had my first Brazilian waxing Friday and here are the results for me.

First, I was really nervous even though my sisters have had them done and a ton of girlfriends, I was still apprehensive about it based on mixed opinions I was given, but here are my 3 pro's and con's.

PRO'S:
1) Wow! I love the look of the skin after it is over with, smooth as a babies bottom, even though it is a little red. It is so silky smooth with no razor burn marks or bumps, I love it!
2) It takes longer for the hair to grow back out again
3) It grows back thinner each time you do it and will eventually not grow back at all.

CON'S:
1) OMG! The pain!
2) OMG! The pain!
3) OMG! The pain!

My service provider, Brandy, told me that some girls scream and then stop her after the first patch removal and leave saying they cannot take the pain. I did mine all the way through. I figured if I could let a guy spank me on occasion, I could take this... lol

Brandy said that it is less painful each time.

Please tell me what your experience was like and if you got all the way through it and or went back for a second time and was it less painful the 2nd time as much as the 1st for you?

Sooo uuuh... Well do you? I think of a shower to get clean of course and see if there's something on my body I don't notice when I'm eating a taco in the mall.

I’m not suggesting to do so just wondering if any of you do. I have done so since about age 7, except when I was 14 & trying to gain weight —and finally had the wherewithal do to so healthily after I left home. I always thought one meal was bc it’s all I had time & enough good for but even now that I have access to plenty of food, I prefer 1 meal.

My energy is way better prior to eating (provided I have eaten the previous day, otherwise I’ll just get too relaxed & content to stare at the sky 😂)

I hate having to think about what to eat or spend time presiding food nor do I enjoy sitting for a meal…. Having one meal a day at whatever time whatever place I find convenient keeps food as something i take in for sustenance without having to revolve hardly any time around it. Mentally or physically. Which for me is very liberating —vs my childhood a completely diff situation where food played an unhealthy role through my guardian as a means of control over me.

I hate sleeping on a remotely full stomach. Eating once a day leaves plenty of time from meal to bed time. I rest way better and I never have to get up to one. 😴

Much easier to make sure everything I eat is really healthy and I never accidentally eat bad or am in need of food bc I never have anything unexpectedly.

My stomach suffered nerve Damage from childhood & one meal day provides flexibility for rest when it’s less efficient without my losing on calories bc I’m trained to eat what I need within a relatively small window. If poor appetite, I will have nutritional supplements.

It leaves me time for other activities I literally think of food no more than once a day -if that. I understand food is a great joy for many they love to plan prepare share etc etc for me I love the efficiency of one meal. I know of a philosopher from 1600 who ate only lunch. & In china they have practices “ half pi gu” for centuries & I see it as a current fad for weight loss on YouTube “OMAD”

Squishy: curvy, hourglass, full figured, juicy booty, thick thighs, a little tummy & full boobies that hang low

Firm: hard ass muscles, and abs, a little firm booty and perky boobs

Alright so I'm 5'4" and I weigh 124 pounds.

I'm a black belt in taekwondo and have been doing it for four years, and I did ice skating for twelve years, so I'm relatively strong. I honestly just want to know If I can full on take a friend.

I did this the other day and had soo many people staring at me like it wasn't acceptable or something.
I mean the pool does say not to bring food or drink in the pool but I don't think breastfeeding counts as food/drink.
Would this make you uncomfortable if you were swimming and a lady was breastfeeding right next to you?

Apparently men today have a lot lower testosterone levels than men in the past. To the young guys on GaG, do you notice it?

Chewing misophonia is a rare condition that affects about 20% of people. It can also be genetic. I suffer from this and so does my father. I am very sensitive to even my own chewing. It actually why I prefer going out for drinks such as coffee rather than on dinner or lunch dates at the start of a relationship. I know I have this chewing sound misophonia and I don't want to have it effect the way I see a date. I've gotten pretty good at controlling my irritability but every once in a while I may ask a person I with to chew a little softer please ( ie usually family members).
