Disturbing! Girls' use of steroids to tone on the increase

[Raina]

I never got sniffing glue. I was stripping paint last year and apparently didn't have enough ventilation because I had a screaming headache for days. That forever confirmed why I wasn't into sniffing glue.

I don't think I believe those stats. I was an athlete all through HS too and I highly doubt anyone was pumping up their test levels. It's a great way to lose weight? The kids can't buy xenadrine but they can get controlled substances that aren't really as easy to get as beer?

I couldn't even do my own hair when I was 9 let alone get ahold of steroids....

Maybe that 5 yo girl they handcuffed for flipping out was having roid rage??

Here's something ironic -- I went to a Health & Fitness Fair this past Saturday. They were giving out free samples of Stacker 2 Fat Burners. You should have seen all the old ladies & young kids (15 & under!!) grabbing them!!!! I can't believe they were allowed to just give them out like that....

lol

true... I liked to let it dry on my hands though and peel it all off... Gawd I my teacher hated when I did that.

I did that too.

Then I turned to candle wax, which I'd talk about but this thread might get moved.

Go post in the Sheets Vel. We wanna know...

Sometimes when I read news stories I'm really shocked at what they say and then I compare what I'm being told is reality to reality as I know it...and I think a lot of what I'm being told is BS.

I think what bothers me the most about this article is that despite all the attention that Congress is giving to steroid use in baseball, they are completely missing the bigger problem of not addressing common sense in health & fitness. The media proliferates the idea that a twelve yr old girl has to look like Pamela Anderson at age 12. Goddam, no one wants to just do it the old fashioned way.

Even if I'm not in the fitness industry I continue to get on my soapbox about good diet & training because anythign other than that will fail and anything in addition to that is just a supplement.

Very well said Sassy. A 16 year old gets implants for her bday. A 17 year old gets a gastric bypass. It's becoming less and less shocking too as it's more and more common.

It bothered me that it even mentioned baseball's influence. What 11 year old girl is thinking "I want to be hot and skinny like a pro baseball player"? lol That doesn't even make sense.

From selling their ritalin to other kids looking for some party drugs.


Man back in the day we just sniffed glue.

WIPITS

OMG! Whippits! I remember those! I never did one but I was out in the woods of N. Arizona one yr in college and my bf's brother & his hippy girlfriend were doing whippets & Apple Jack all nite.

What I heard is that CNN blew the whole thing WAY OUT OF porportion. What happened is that they had an online survey and I guess some 9 year old and 14 year old girl answere YES to using steroids. We know where things went from there. I doubt that those girls who did the survey know anything about steroids. Its just anotother mass media shit bomb!
