Which Self Love Pinky Ring would our favorite besties wear? Let's find out. 20 years ago, four best friends changed everything about how we perceive women on television: Samantha, Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte's bond with each other in Sex and the City was rooted not just in love for each other, but also love for themselves.

This Memorial Day, we’re paying special tribute to the history of women who have served this country. Women have played a part in every war throughout the history of our country. That’s right - every single one. And as of September 2015, more than 2 million women have served.

"It's rare that I post full length pics of myself. Mostly because I'm never really happy with how I look. Truth is, I have been much thinner in my life and I have also been bigger. The important thing here is, that never in my life have I been happier, more secure and loved myself more than I do at this time. Sure, I need to lose some weight, eat healthier, get in better shape but none of that is as important as my happiness, my sense of self love and always remembering to chose myself. So here it is,...

"As I sat on the edge of the examination table, I felt a surge of pressure enter the crevasse of my lower back. Soon pain streamed into my spine and down each leg, as the doctor repositioned the needle in order to retrieve the fluid needed to fill 12 test tubes.
