You may call me Risa. I'm 30 years old and live in Boca Raton, Florida. I have battled with my weight since I was about 6 years old. Over the years, I've learned that health is a lot more complex than a number on a scale.
Huntington’s disease is a rare and incurable, neurodegenerative disorder characterised by uncontrolled movements, changes in mood, and declines in reasoning and memory. The causative mutation – which creates an abnormally extended version of the huntingtin protein – was discovered decades ago, yet the protein’s normal function and how its mutation leads to pathology remain unclear. Because huntingtin interacts with many cellular proteins, its abnormal extension was widely considered to be a gain-of-function mutation – one that causes excessive recruitment of interacting proteins resulting in toxicity. But recent work reveals that loss of huntingtin function in mouse brain striatal neurons (red) can cause Huntington’s-like pathology and symptoms too, including impaired neuronal survival, infiltration of other brain cells called glial astrocytes (cyan), and movement and coordination deficits. This new view of Huntington’s pathology suggests that current therapies aimed at suppressing the mutant protein may in fact be counterproductive and that a new drug design perspective might be required.

Did you know that lube can make sex safer AND increase comfort and pleasure at the same time!? Make sure your lube is safe to use with condoms. That means only using water-based or silicone-based lube with latex condoms — lube with oil in it can break down latex and cause condoms to tear. It’s also a bad idea to use lotions, baby oil, or Vaseline as sexual lubricants because they can irritate your genitals and cause condoms to break.
Being fit is being skinny you idiot, being athletic and flexible is a whole different thing, you don't have to skinny to be athletic but you do have to be skinny to be fit
I don’t know what prompted you to send me the dumbest message I’ve received in at least 6 months, but nowhere in the Merriam-Webster dictionary definition of “fitness” do I find the word “skinny.” Even synonyms for the word “fitness” focus 100% on health attributes as opposed to size attributes. So I’m sorry if you have this deep seeded complex that refuses to allow you to accept that, from all standpoints of medicine, science, and flat out fact, fitness is irrelevant to body size. That really sucks for you that your brain is struggling to let you come to terms with that. However, it is also 100% not my problem.
