Instead of thinking about everything we hate about our bodies, I thought what we should talk about what we like instead. It is much more productive and there has to be something you like about yourself physically :)

Personally, I love my arms and legs. My legs are still big, but it's mostly muscle and even when I was at my highest weight, I still wore shorts. And even though my arms aren't super muscular (yet!), they aren't flabby which gives me hope that they will look amazing one day.

Your turn!

    I didn't even realize your collarbones were supposed to show until mine did. haha. after I started seeing mine, I started looking at everyone else and saw that you could see everyone's. one of the best things about losing weight!

    After doing Chalean Extreme I am really starting to like the shape of my shoulders. If I keep up with this I will have some sexy shoulders.....if that is possible....lol

    As much as this may receive some eyerolls, lol, I'm really at a place now where I love most things about my body. I mean that sincerely. It's an empowering transition for me. I have flaws, like anyone, but I have a very short list of things I don't like about myself and a very, very long list of what I like.

    My top likes are my shape (which I never realized I have), my skin, my face, my hair.

    What a great topic!!!
    I like my eyes, teeth, hair, skin for the most part, ears, nose... I like that when I gained all the weight, it was proportioned evenly...
    I agree on the collarbones... I miss mine, but when I do have them, they look good:)
    I am grateful that I am able to workout to lose the weight, and that I have all my arms and legs, etc... I am very blessed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i love this! i can't wait to get to this point! and it definitely takes a lot to get to the point where you truly love your body.
  • Good topic!! =)

    I love my height, my hair - it's really thick. and my back. That sounds odd but it always looked good even when I was a little heavier. :)

    I love the fact that (even when I was heavy) I have always had a wonderful "perfect" hourglass figure. Tiny waist, nice bust and butt curves! To this day, it looks even better and now when I stand naked in the mirror I see my toned legs, arms, and start of a 6-pack along with my hourglass body that I love :)
  • I like my eyes, my lips, and my upper back. Perhaps that's a weird combo?

    I love most things about your body too! :laugh:


    Seriously though....I agree with the above. I like almost everything about my body.
    I do have a short list of things that I don't like about my body....but it's not like I am disgusted by these things.
    Just want to make some improvements.

    If I did have to pick a few things I like the best about my body it would be the whole collarbone-shoulders-arms area.
    It is really toned, which I have never had before.
    I also noticed I have an *kitten* now. :noway: Where before it just kind of melted into my thighs.....it actually has a nice round shape. :blushing:

    my legs :) they are long (always have to buy long pants) and even though my thighs are "big" they are strong from horseback riding. I love my collarbones now. I am especially in love with my green eyes :D
