Liking yourself

Recommended Posts

I think we spend far too much time dwelling on the negatives about our bodies & complaining about what we hate about the way we look.

 

So, I want everyone to say 3 things that they like about their body,so that next time you think 'I have a fat bum' you can remember 'but I have got really good legs'! 8):lol:

I will start.

 

I like my hair.Its a bit more Crystaltips than Carrie Bradshaw today,but its still good.

 

I like my general shape.When I am slimmer than I am now I have got a good curvy shape...big boobs,small waist,proper hips.

 

I like my hands & feet as they are small & slender.

 

NEXT!!! (& boys,you are included too :wink: )

I love my shape, and I don't mind being called a pocket venus - short and curvy is fine by me.

 

My skin is AMAZING. I get a spot once or twice a year and I barely even wash my face.

 

I have beautiful eyes, they're green and I have a slight epicanthic fold which I think is gorgeous.

Great thread Sarah :lol:

 

I think my best feature is my shoulders - they dont look old and have just the right proportion of flesh to bone. I try and show them off whenever possible when its the right occasion of course :roll:

 

I too like my hair, it's long and very thick although it costs me a small fortune to keep it in good condition :D

 

Who's next????

I too like my hands, somebody said I should have been a hand model when I was younger - very long thin fingers.

 

I like my eyes, sparkly green with a hint of hazel (all my kids have got the most gorgeous eyes ranging from very light blue, dark blue and a mix of grey and green).

 

I like my ears, nice and small.

 

I'm afraid I'm not over keen on the rest of my body although I don't hate it. Lifes too short to hate yourself. :D

Hmm let me think... :doh:

 

I like my hands and they look so much better now my nails are long

 

I like my feet, size 8 not small :roll: , and I have a fantastic tattoo of a seahorse on my left foot

 

My hubby thinks my best feature is my smile well that's the polite answer anyway! :wink:

Well, I've got nice hair, someone on here called it pre-Raphaelite and in fact someone said exactly that to me today on the school run, course it takes a pot of henna to hide the grey these days :roll:

 

Apart from that I look pretty good. From behind. In the dark!

I don't hate myself but I'm wearing the battle scars of three children quite close together and spending far more time on them and OH than I have on myself. That is currently being addressed, hence the diet, the attempt at rock climbing and getting back on my bike.

Great clear skin (no lines around eyes yet and I'm 45!).

 

Pretty slanted green/bluey eyes.

 

Full lips.

 

Clever little hands (should have been a midwife :wink: )

 

Perfectly straight and balanced nose.

 

(The rest is all too curvy - read large - for my taste and my bum is ... well, Mediterranean! :oops: )

 

Q. Can we just say the nice things, without mentioning the not-so-nice ones?

A. Obviously not! :wall::shock::P:lol:

Good thread!!

My hands, because they are incredible workhorses, and I abuse them

My boobs, because they are in pretty good shape, and did the job for feeding two kids admirably(bit more South than they used to be, but hey, that's life!!)

My brain, because it still works(most of the time)

And my Liver..... :lol:

Good idea :D .

 

I like my skin - never had a spot in my life!

 

I have nice teeth (a dentist told me once when choosing a colour for a crown to match, they are the best colour on the chart!)

 

Quite happy with my boobs - not too big, not too small.

 

My eyes are a nice greeny hazel colour.

 

I'm pretty fit for 45 and have run 5 half marathons and lots of 10k races (been a bit lazy recently though :oops: ).

Well done Christian for being the first guy brave enough to do this....

 

Best things about my body - my arms as they are a good shape and all this lifting lawnmowers has given them the best definition they have ever had :D:D

 

My hair - I keep in really good condition but it's a costly upkeep :oops:

 

and my nails, now that I've stopped after forever biting them my hands look ok when they've been tended too :lol:

 

Shame about the skin tho - it's terribly dry :cry:

Working on the waistline too - a few more months I should have a reasonable shape to be proud of :D

I like my hair - It's long and really thick. I hated it when I was younger as it's mental and can only be kept long because it needs weighting down. I love it now though (it's getting white speckles too :lol: )

 

My eyes are nice. They are lots of different colours. Browny, bluey, greyey, greeney, with a hazel ring around the pupil

 

After having had a flat chest until I had my kids, I like my boobs, which luckily didn't dissapear after breast feeding :D

 

Great Thread

I really ought to write on here as i am generally fairly negative about myself and my body.

 

1. I have no cellulite!

 

2. My tummys pretty flat

 

3. My feet are ok - small size which means cheap shoes!

 

Oh and i have been told i have a nice bum but obviously haven't caught much of a glimpse of that myself so i don't know whether thats true! :wink:

 

Resists urge to now list all of the things she doesn't like about her body!
