Cinnamon Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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'! 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 ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty e Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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.

Laura & CTB Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Great thread Sarah 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 I too like my hair, it's long and very thick although it costs me a small fortune to keep it in good condition Who's next????

Tiggy Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I went on a girly day out to a spa on Saturday & had a facial the beautician thought I was about 32ish - made my day I'm 47, so I have good skin - mad hair tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I have deep olive skin with freckles and turn brown at the smallest glimpse of the sun. My eyelashes are long I'm fit and healthy for my age (45) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I have a nice small nose and small ears and my husband says I have sparkley eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I have a neat little nose and people say I've got smiley eyes and although I could never be a hand model, they are very practical and I can do lots of crafty stuff with them .

chickencam Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 My hair is blond and looks even better when it has had a bit of sun on it. Can't find a style that I like though. I have very dark blue eyes. My overall shape is ok despite 3 children especially from behind - not so good at the front, bit of a baby pouch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Hard one because body wise I actually like most of mine (except for shopping for it)so find it easier to pick the bits I dont like. I'm tall- so long legs. I have elegant hands My hair is a gorgeous colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Hmm let me think... I like my hands and they look so much better now my nails are long I like my feet, size 8 not small , 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!

chickenanne Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Great cleavage. Good legs. Definite waist. Sadly showing cleavage and legs and waist at same time looks very bad. Equally sadly, plunging tops for work inappropriate.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosey Lucy Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 What a great idea for a thred. Thank you Now let me see... I like my eyes I have good teeth I have fab boobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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 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. Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ana's flock Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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 ) Perfectly straight and balanced nose. (The rest is all too curvy - read large - for my taste and my bum is ... well, Mediterranean! ) Q. Can we just say the nice things, without mentioning the not-so-nice ones? A. Obviously not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddie Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 ok.. I like my eyes (pale green) but deep green when I am angry so I am told I like my height 5'7" I like my nose, kinda button nosed.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Good idea . 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 ).

Snowy Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I like this - well done Sarah! Impressive cleavage Love my dark brown eyes Been told I have a lovely smile (I do have great teeth) And I do have a great figure, it is just well disguised at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Oh, ok then My cheeky grin My expressive eyes (apparently I don't need to speak as my eyes say it all) My legs - no comments please My six pack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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 My hair - I keep in really good condition but it's a costly upkeep and my nails, now that I've stopped after forever biting them my hands look ok when they've been tended too Shame about the skin tho - it's terribly dry Working on the waistline too - a few more months I should have a reasonable shape to be proud of A xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I quite like my bum, it may be big but isn't that all the rage nowadays? Unfortunately that's it as most of my body is packing up at the moment Great idea for a thread though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little chickadee Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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 ) 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 Great Thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooner.girl Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 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! Resists urge to now list all of the things she doesn't like about her body! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I like my skin Perfectly happy with my boobs - and they're in the same place as when in my teens and I like my mouth/lips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
