    Work out. Especially weights, running or a yoga class at my yoga studio.

    If I need comfort, I get a massage.

    I've never been a girly girl, but I found that taking care of myself in small ways - painting my nails, doing my hair, putting on makeup - have helped me feel more comfortable in my own skin. Part of this change I'm making is learning how to love myself. These little ways of showing myself I'm valued definitely help boost my confidence.

    Oh, and it's super fun to paint my nails and do my hair with my boyfriend's daughter. :smile:

    I have to admit, I'm the opposite of most of the women here. Dressing up and putting on make-up or doing my hair makes me feel stressed and actually make-up makes me feel worse about myself because I can remember a time when I didn't need to use moisturizer and primer before my foundation.... or concealer under my eyes.

    For me it's definitely got to be going to the spa for a massage, manicure, pedicure, or to have someone else do something with my unruly hair. I feel like a new person afterwards and it definitely helps my self-confidense, especially after a massage - spending 60 minutes mostly naked in front of a stranger while they lavish you with attention is always a good ego boost.

    Taking the time to primp before I go somewhere - makeup, hair, nails, etc. I find that when I really take the time on my physical appearance, I feel pretty awesome. Also, music. When a kick *kitten* song comes on my iPod, I dance around my room and that leaves me feeling fabulous.

    Its hard to say because I never felt good or confident about myself to begin with.

    I take a shower. I know it seems simple, but It makes me feel cleansed in a way. Once my body is clean. I start to feel better right away.

    me too but my showers involve a little more than just getting clean

    Walking, clothes that I bought a year ago fit me now, seeing people's expression when I've lost most of my weight.:drinker:

    Dressing up, a mani and buying a new outfit. Oh and I felt amazing about myself after my appointment with my trainer yesterday when he called me a mini-hulk for being able to do 100 pounds on the leg press/squatting machine. So yeah, there are plenty of ways. :P

    I actually like going shopping....i like trying on things and stepping out of the change room to check out the full length....mostly because the few times I've done that, I've had serious double takes.....thanks to going in wearing baggy clothing and coming out in something fitted....

    THAT was awesome..,

    i also love my pole class and look forward to the aerial hoop spinning class that's coming up at my studio...

    AND lifting...i love that I'm starting that in January.
