    I love my hourglass shape and I think I am very pretty. I don't have the nicest legs around but I appreciate them for being able to run many miles and keep me active. All around, I really don't have too many complaints about my body. That's the great thing about being over 30...you nitpick less and are more accepting of flaws. I'm not perfect but I fill out my clothes nicely!

    Great posts here, especially that lips and legs one :wink:
    Well I love my eyes and waist, currently working on loving everything else, which is why I'm here I guess. I want to eventually love all of me, its gonna take some time and hard work. Wanna be the fit slim girl I used to be.

    Everything, I like everything!! Lol. But seriously, I like that it has taken a beating and it kept on ticking.

    Don't feel bad for me. I have thoroughly enjoyed my big boobs and I know others have enjoyed them too.

    And I don't feel sorry for your your teeny boobies.

    I like my legs and my back, especially since I used to have such ridiculous back fat (like D cups on my back I swear) and now it's all flat and nice, almost muscular. I'm not even sure how that is possible but I'll take it.

    My hands with my long fingers, my lips, eyes, butt, and ever since I started cycling, my legs are looking good.

    After I typed that I was worried that I might have been rude. That was not my intention and I apologize. I have seen some lovely bigger breasts.

    I am aware of the problems that can come from larger breasts (back problems, they look like they get in the way doing daily tasks, trouble with clothes fitting) which is why I am glad to have small ones. Plus I think the shape of my are fantastic!

    Hi, everyone! This seemed like a positive place for my first post. I've enjoyed reading others' comments.

    I like my brown eyes, thick hair, artistic hands, and strong legs that get me all over NYC.

    I also try to give my smile a workout everyday.

    Welcome! What kind of art do you make?

    I have a very noticeable scar in my eye...I know it's very noticeable because somebody asks me about it almost every single day! I used to hate it, but have come to realize that it adds a lot of character to my face. It is unique.
    I am also pretty fond of my hair....it is a cool shade of red, thick, and naturally curly!

    I love how hardy and adaptable my body is. It's been through a lot, and having 200 extra pounds is just one of them. It's amazing how a few years ago I could not even walk but now I can run on most days. I love how it learns, adapts and compensates for any insufficiency... that nature to cherish and protect itself when possible.

    Look-wise I love the color of my eyes and how it changes like a chameleon to suit the environment. My eyes are green but I've been told it's hard to tell. Some think they're green, others believe they're blue and some see them as grey. The color is a curious shade so it shines differently in different light conditions. They also have this peculiar faded honey colored circle that gives them character.

    I like my collar bone/shoulder area. I'm happy with my general shape. Though I sometimes wish for a larger chest, I'm glad I am pear shaped.

    I love my hands!! They're tiny tiny, I've met very few people with smaller hands than me, yet I'm doing a diploma in guitar and play bass in loads of bands. They're pretty tendony and veiny although not in this photo, I think they look nice.

    I have huuge boobies. That's pretty fun. Even when I was 7st they were double Ds. I've always had skinny legs.

    Having happened recently is the collarbones, my arms look nice here too. Excuse the cigarette and plastic bag.

    Not to derail thread, but can you recommend me a famous orchestral excerpt for bassoon that an intermediate player could learn?

    I'm in a band in which the singer used to introduce me as "tiny hands" whenever we played.

    The bassoon solo from firebird by Stravinsky is the first one that comes to mind.

    Ummm...would it be inappropriate for me to say I like them, too?

    LOL! Second, but the photos make the mother in me want to yell, "Go clean your room!" So clearly I am old now.

    Okay mother in you, did you happen to notice what's next to the photos on the desk? ;)

    YES, I did! ROFLOL. I wasn't going to say anything!

    Yeah, I have to get everything tailored. The funny thing is (you can see from my photos) I don't LOOK at ALL top-heavy. In clothes at the lingerie store, unless it's cleavage-bearing, the always go (quite obnoxiously) "Are you SURE you're a 32DDD?" I got that today at Soma, in fact. And I'm like, "yeah, I'm sure." Gave me 2 bras. One was so tiny that I was busting out in every direction. The other would have been fine if it were a balconette, but with full-coverage, it was total quad-boob-land. I just look...proportional. I guess it's because I have a big butt, too.

    I hated my boobs for years. I've decided I like the only recently. LOL.

    I love my HUGE hands. I have rarely met men with larger hands (I can very easily palm a basketball) but they are slender and slim (size 6.5 ring on my ring finger).

    I love my height. I am 5'10" and when I wear my favorite 3" heels I am 6'1" and I love walking around as a 6'1" woman.

    I have thick, curly, dark brown hair that I love. It doesn't grow as fast when I'm cutting calories, but I am excited for it to grow again :)

    I love my facial features. I am told I look like the girl from FLASH DANCE! a lot, and I think I am pretty (a feature I didn't have 130 lbs ago!)

    I love my big luscious booty and my thick thighs, and I work to keep my bum perky.

    I love my shoulders and my collar bones.

    This thread is excellent!

    I think I'm well proportioned. I have wider shoulders, a small waist and curvier hips, thighs and butt. I love my eyes and lips. I have thick hair and I like my skin tone. I'm also pretty strong, or working on it.

    Doesn't have to be a specific body part.. just something about your body you love! Why do you love it?

    I know I don't speak kindly to myself nearly as much as I should. I imagine I'm not alone, so I just wanted to make a positive post! Looking forward to reading responses.. thanks!

    I like my butt. It has to be at least decent. I see none of the "big" dudes at the gym that can lunge what I can even after a full squat workout. I have found nothing works your gluts like a lunge workout. I once had one of the big guys tell me I was doing lunges wrong because I was doing them in place (full motion knee to ground). He said I needed to do them moving foward stepping. Went and grabbed the 90lb dumbells and did 10 steps. "Like this?" Disgusted look on his face...priceless!

    @Mgtei That's wonderful! I'm a painter, and I'm working on some science illustrations. I just finished a degree in biochemistry.
