Diane Keaton always knew she didn't fit the mold of the classical beautiful movie star and lamented, before she was even in high school, that the attractive genes in her family had passed on to her two younger sisters. But the Oscar-winning Keaton, who died Saturday at age 79, came to be known as a world-class beauty and a fashion icon in her own way,

In 2011, I had weight loss surgery. It was very successful, and I've managed to keep the weight off. Of course, a lot of people think I took the easy way to lose weight, but surgery is not a miracle cure, just a tool. My current problem is actually keeping my weight up where my doctor (not the weight-loss doctor) wants it.

When I showed the photo to my friend, her reaction left me speechless. She practically threw the phone down and said, What an ugly family! Your mother is ugly and fat, and your father is ugly, too! She continued with more of the same. Other than that, she's a kind and giving friend. I can't get over what she said because I know I'm ugly and I hate being so. But if we were so offensive, why would she be friends with me?

"I've seen a lot of TikToks from older generations sharing their disapproval of the types of dresses they see high school girls wearing for their homecoming dances," she said. "It does crack me up that for some reason, as we get older, I think that people have a tendency of forgetting that they were once them."

One of the first screens you see in Silent Hill f is a smorgasbord of content warnings. And while I largely consider myself to have a pretty high threshold, those warnings should be heeded, as Silent Hill f has one of the most singularly gruesome moments I've ever seen in a video game.

Many Irish teens take drugs rather than drinking, and social ­media accelerates this trend

Before I explain, I want to clarify that I firmly believe in body autonomy. If someone chooses to take a weight loss medication, they should be able to do so without judgment. I hope all potential users are fully informed about the risks and benefits of these medications and are followed responsibly by medical providers. Ideally, they would also be screened for a current or past eating disorder or any other condition that might contraindicate the use of GLP-1s and GIPs.

working as the library manager at the International Center of Photography, overseeing projects for Dashwood, and producing zines through her publishing house, Matarile Ediciones. Spending her days poring over others' work, some titles have shaped her idea of what makes a photo book truly remarkable - from Carmen Winant's My Birth, with its tactile documentation of women in labour, to Nobuyoshi Araki's Winter Journey, which sequences his wife's final days in hospital and their honeymoon in a moving, elegiac rhythm.

Sometimes with loved ones and friends, the healthiest but hardest thing to do is to say, this is where he is right now and to accept that. You don't have to love it; you don't have to like it; some aspects of it can still pose a question in your mind. But, by saying, this is where he is right now, you acknowledge that he's on a journey and it may not be going as fast as you want, but you're along for the ride.

After a recent gathering for my granddaughter's graduation, I am feeling depressed and upset. Unflattering pictures of me were taken during the event and later posted on social media. I wasn't asked, and I think it was done maliciously by the grandmother on the other side. She posted no candid pictures of herself, only ones that were planned and staged. I don't feel I can ask that they be taken down without causing a rift.

The first step involved cutting his leg in half to allow a device to be implanted to separate the two ends of the sawn off bone. It leaves a space for new bone growth to take place, which is also monitored through several surgeries. Of the ordeal, he told the outlet: 'Sometimes the nerve pain wrecks me'. But he endured it because he is proud of being a self-starter, having a 'self made' tattoo on his knuckles.

My stubborn Taurus self thought it was nothing when I heard the bench creak a bit. I laid back anyway, only for the bench's leg to give out.

Keloids, thick raised scars from abnormal healing, affect about 10% of the world's population. They are commonly found on the chest or back.

Just a few pounds may feel like the answer, but it often leads to more anxiety, obsession, and isolation.

The Danish agency for palaces and culture is reportedly removing the 4x6 metre Den Store Havfrue (the Big Mermaid) because it does not align with the cultural heritage of the 1910 landmark.

Focusing on what bodies can do helps children develop a positive, functional relationship with their bodies.

Luke's captain's jumpsuit revealed a prominent bulge, prompting reflections on men's body image and confidence in the face of societal expectations.

The shifting nature of the 'ideal body' over decades ensures true satisfaction remains elusive, as each era promotes its own restrictive standard of beauty.
