    No :( I have trouble because I look in the mirror and know I will never like myself so why bother changing.

    I'm not happy with what I see in the mirror...that's why I'm here! I mean, I get ready for work and think that I look ok with what I'm wearing, but I've never been this heavy in my life and I don't look like myself. Even worse are pictures...who is that fat old woman??

    Oh my! I was just reminded me of walking past the security cameras in stores where you can see whose walking in the doors, and I catch a glimpse of myself...YIKES!

    No actually I don't and I never have. I always see my own little flaws that are more than likely non-existant (according to my husband) and the spots that are wiggly, jiggly and need to be tightened up which are more than likely non-existant (according to my husband).

    This is me usually. My boyfriend asked if I wanted to wear a bikini this summer because he thinks I look amazing but I felt too insecure and went with a one-piece instead. I'm such a wuss. Maybe next summer... >.<

    I did this with my boyfriend...he's always telling me about how good I look in my dresses...I still wear jeans on a night out

    I don't wear dresses that often but I am fixing to change that. I ordered a new casual dress so I'm going to have to wear it sometime this summer. :)

    I tend to avoid mirrors whenever possible. I'm too hypercritical of myself and I immediately see all of my flaws.

    THIS:""""""""""""""""""""" """"""That is not beautiful & I do not care what anyone says. She's overweight, unhealthy & well..... unfit. Sorry but that's the truth & sugar coating it as BBW is not on anymore. We have become a world that make pretend that being fat as long as you are a model is ok? Or that beauty is on the inside? Stuff beauty...what about being HEALTHY on the inside & out? What about caring enough about yourself to do something about it? Tattoos & bright hair do not take away from the fact that you are overweight, unhealthy & more than likely going to be sick easier or die earlier than those who are actually working hard to take care of themselves.
    Sorry but I find anyone who thinks that THAT looks fantastic & beautiful to be sick in the head"""""".
     
    i can see your point... but.

    you can be beautiful but be fat.
    just as you can still be beautiful when you have cancer, when you're 100y/o, when you're dead.
    i think she would look MORE beautiful were she a healthy weight.

    This|

    Plus OP was saying she thought this person was beautiful, she wasn't asking if you think she is healthy because she probably isn't. How ever - I know MANY skinny people who are unfit & unhealthier than I am so you can't always judge a book by it's cover.
    I think this girl has a pretty face but don't think the body is beautiful, kudos to her for loving herself though.

    The point of this thread is whether having too much self-regard (to a degree perhaps bordering on delusion) can prevent you from developing healthier habits.

    and the point of my post was to disagree with with what was posted in the post i quoted.

    Well I do, everytime I look in a mirror I think "she's hot" and then I see a picture and my hopes are dashed. haha

    Somedays yes, somedays no. I don't know why I will have a poor opinion of myself one day but not the next. Funny thing is, when I like what I see, I do better things for my body. If I don't like what I see, I tend to fall off the wagon.

    Some days yes... some days no. All depends on how I'm feeling emotionally really.

    What's funny is that if I take a picture of what I see in the mirror, I often respond better to the picture.
