    78.

    All of the questions were bound to give someone who is just embarking on their new healthy lifestyle a reason to answer 'always'.

    Gah, I hate my sick sense of humor. I keep wanting to post some "loser" comments for fun, but looking at scores I think it might be taken the wrong way.

    lol. Com'on friends....we need to lighten up on ourselves!
  • Well I guess I do hate myself I scored a 57 :mad:

    49. It's weird to me I scored so high, because I really love myself and consider myself a confident person lol but I am very uncomfortable with my body.

    :sad: I got a 54.
  • 65, but I was the same all the years I was in shape so I didn't need a quiz to tell me that really.

    I scored 5! I love my body. Even when it was bigger I loved it, I love it even more now that I am leaner.
  • I got a 49! Wait, high number = worse body image. Damn.

    This. :cry:

    I scored a 21. I pretty much hate myself naked or in certain clothes. When I'm around super attractive people, I don't feel very attractive.
  • I'M a 74... oh god
  • Oh my I got 44 :(

    I scored a 3.

    Besides that I'm at my goal weight and even slightly below, I think that at my age, I know for sure that there are lots more important things to worry about than my appearance.

    Scored an 18 and I'm NO WHERE NEAR my goal weight. You gotta love the skin you're in.

    I took it again on the laptop I got 49(40+) Body Hatred

    I guess they are both true it depends on the day tbh. they are my main reasons for going to the gym as well as it being a hobby.

    I scored a 32

    The first half of the quiz were heavy hitters for me. I had to put "always" a few times there.

    There's a body that I know I can have, and I can achieve - it's just frustrating that it takes so long to achieve it. My current body has extra fat and not enough muscle. I am working hard to fix that in as healthy of a manner as possible.

    The second half of the quiz is where I put my "nevers." When I think about what I wished I looked like, I feel excited and spurred on to work hard to achieve it; when people talk about weight or dieting, I want to join the conversation and volunteer all of the interesting and encouraging things I've learned; when I look at fashion magazines, I think "Oooo I can't wait til I can wear that! That's going to be so cute and I'm going to look so sexaaaaaay :D "

    OP - Thanks for posting this link - Hopefully I will remember to take the quiz again in 6 months and/or one year and see how my score has changed! :)

    Makes sense. I know I need improvement, but I'm not unhappy with myself.

    18... not bad.
  • I scored a 73...

    They're telling me I have body dysmorphic disorder/body hatred and all these scary things. I really don't know what to do with this information...
