Drinking soy will make my boobies grow?! Or can I just eat it? Is this the same Suffolk location as the handbag store with the lobster on the outside? I used to live down the street years ago, when all the boutiques started moving in East of Essex. For some reason it pissed me off to no end that she displayed, like TWO unimpressive handbags in the window, was open really weird hours and called it a "store." That led me to the conclusion she had a sugar daddy, and just did it for the sake of saying she had a store. My boyfriend at the time heard me bitch and complain every time we passed by, and thought it was hilarious. He almost stole the lobster to he could take it to California and mail it to me for X-mas. A romantic gesture, no? Maybe I'll check this place out now that there's FOOD...but can she guarantee a nice rack?

I have plans to get a breast reduction in the next year. I wonder if laying off all the soy would help? Interesting. I had heard about this, but I didn't know it was truth.

After being on a soy milk kick for several months, partly due to the research that shows lessened incidence of prostate cancer in soy consumers, I noticed my breasts enlarging and becoming painful. Eventually I made the connection, since soy has an estrogen-like effect, and that may be its protective quality against prostate cancer, among others. I consulted with an endocrinologist who confirmed my suspicion. Message: everything in moderation.
