Let's Be Positive! What's your favorite thing about your body?
So nowadays, everyones so negative about their body image. It's true in just about everyone. Screw that! Let's be positive and take a good look at the better things about your body, whether its a toned body or a set of beautiful eyes or soft flowing hair.
I'll start it off!
I love my calves. They're very toned "soccer legs" that took a lot of work to get. I like my eyes too, they're huge anime eyes lol.
I love my eyes and my lips!!!! Even when my body looks overweight my face always looks perfect...ok that sounded conceited! LOL but i am sure you get it :P
Also I love my legs. They are not super thin or anything but they are long, and whether my thighs are jiggly or not my legs are awesome.
I also like my hands. They're tiny and cute.
I like my eyes. They are blue and green. Just depending on what day it is.
I also like my height! Im 5'7-5'8' i love it. not too short not too tall!
I've got totally tiny feet! ^^ They're a size 4 or 5, and they look and feel like little girl's feet. :] (adult feet are ICKY!)
My face. I think I have a very pretty face. I used to hate just about everything on me, from top of my head to my feet, but I am growing up a bit.
I realized I like my hair, I used to want straight hair, now I have learned to love my curls.
I always liked my eyes. They may be the bland color of brown, but they are very deep and mysterious.
I do think I have a bit of a 'pig nose' HAHA, but I don't mind it like I used to.
I used to hate my teeth because I had a gap between the 2 front ones. That gap has taken a long, agonizing 20+ years to close, but its mostly there, enough that I am over it!
As far as from the neck down....not so satisfied...but...as long as I keep my clothes covering those areas...I am happy. In the meantime, I will keep exercising and eating right in hopes that one day I will be totally comfortable. I've come a LONG way since high school (back in the day, 6 years ago haha) and hope that age will only improve my confidence.
I have pretty clear skin...compared to most teens, I guess.
I'm really pale...which is cool ![]()
annnnd, I have slender fingers.
I like them too.
haha
weird thing
My big ass.. lol i love it, I wish it were bigger. I also have pretty big boobs, but we all know that goes away with weightloss. My bum I can keep working and just turn it into a big muscular one.
and I like my face in general. There isn't anything i'd change about it. accept for the occasional zit!
I like my tummy :) it's flat, toned and has those cute lines (like britney used to have) and I like my eyes.
This is a really great thread! Spread the positivity - I'm feeling awfully down at the mo.
Yeah, I've never really had skin problems either - but I hope I didn't just jinx it and a whole mountin rangeof spots is waiting in the post. But I'm happy my skin is clear.
I quite like my skin tone as well. Its quite radiant. Except for in the cold cold winter when I look like I have jaundice.
I also like most of my forearm - like the back of my hands but not my fingers and I like my wrists. Apparently they're the sexiest body part (of every body). My forearms are pretty slender until the meet up with my upperarms
but hope I can fix that
i love my long, lanky arms :]
my wrists, which are really teeny tiny.
my arms, they are pretty thin and fairly long for my height.
my eyes, cause they are pretty big which i think looks cool.
okay... maybe im being negative... *gulp*... but its depressing me that i come to read this thread, hoping to hear from girls who are overweight, being positive about their bodies, and instead... its a bunch of skinny teenage girls talking about how much they love themselves for the most part, and some of them sound downright concieted...
this just depressed me more than i was already... im sorry if its wrong of me to feel this way, im not trying to offend anyone at all! im just being very honest in saying i think there should be a completely different forum for girls who are currently or formerly anorexic/bulemic... it does little for the self esteem and realistic goals of girls who are overweight... quite frankly it makes me feel like maybe i should just go throw up my lunch so i can be skinny too...
im sorry if this is rude, but i dont feel comfortable sharing my concerns with being overweight, with a bunch of girls who are literally half my size...
abs ...legs ....and my butt....lol

Whatchu talkin bout Willis! I'm most deffinatley overweight. Hence the "big ass" comment lmao.
Don't be depressed. Rejoice in the jiggle and poke fun at yourself. Find something you love and compliment yourself everyday. Everyone has "fat and ugly" days, but the good days should outweigh those ones.
btw. don't ever say you're going to throw up your lunch. you won't become skinny doing this but you will get mouth and throat cancer and have no teeth.![]()
I love my long "piano fingers" as a lot of people call them. Also my extremely broad shoulders.
and long skinny toes and fingers.....
other than that, the only way I look OK naked is if I take out my contacts and squint REALLY hard when I look in the mirror....LOL
And I'm totally NOT a skinny young girl =)
I'm 27, about 70 or so pounds overweight and I'm a mom (STRETCHMARKS!!!!)
One thing i love about my body....ummm...id say it would be my boobs lol - and they will never shrink when i loose weight
Nothing else really jumps out at me - i have put on a stone and a half in a year so nothing looks as good as it used to LOL!!! but over all id say im ok :) im not a hater.
-I love my nose
-my hair.

Heh Heh. Not me. I am no skinny minnie! That's why I'm here (on CC), I'm not having a go at you at all but I'm also overweight and also get days when I'm like, "I hate everything about me" and I do feel I am weigh(!) behind other girls on here but then again I don't even know their statistics.
I did sort of feel like you when I came on this post ( Must you all have great legs!!!
) but no matter how small you think it is (like dimples or freckles) everybody has some good features.
Please keep strong and keep positive. Doing something like throwing up your lunch (I'm not sure how serious you were) will do you way more harm than good and will only make it harder.

Figure out what type of eater you are and you might just find the answer to permanent weight loss.
