    My large breast. Ouch shoulders, neck and back. No matter how much I lose I NEVER lose it there. After I get fit....they will be reduced. I am working for that goal.....Can't wait!!!!!


    It makes me self-concious when I talk to someone and they are not looking at my face but my breast.

    My eyebrows. They are very thick.

    be thankful. I have to dye mine-they have all turned gray! And not a single gray hair on my head!

    My acne :-(

    Oh gosh this SO used to be me! Like I'd have clear skin for the most part then get nailed with cystic acne. It was horrible! I'd literally take a week off work and just hide in my house.

    I still used to get them from time to time to the point I said SCREW THIS! I signed up for ProActiv Solution. It's not that badly priced and I figured if it gives me clear skin and my confidence back, then it's SO worth it!

    I love this stuff! Seriously, my skin has cleared up so much it's unreal. Especially during that time of the month! If I do get any type of zit, I use the 'refining mask' to spot treat and it's gone in a day or two.

    They always have promotions going on for a free kit. Or a cheap kit. Just a thought....I can't say enough how much better I feel about myself now since having no massive acne problems. I know to some people it may seem dumb, but for me, it meant everything.

    The fact that I'm balding and my beard is 50% gray already, and I'm not even 32 yet. :sad:

    Damn family genetics!

    So I keep my head and beard clean shaven now, and I HATE shaving.

    My boyfriend is exactly the same and I think he's hot!

    Gray is sooooooo sexy on men!

    I'm self conscious about random whiskers popping up! I used to laugh at my mother and aunt who said, "You won't be laughing when it happens to you!"

    I get it now. I'm going to be 30 yrs old this year and sometimes they just come out of nowhere. Yeah, I know, it's sexy. :)

    Yeah, isn't it fun when you are feeling pretty good about yourself and someone comes along and notices. It's like they can't stop staring (or does it just feel like that! LOL). Plus I have a long nose and long toes that people love to tease me about!

    My voice. I work in a call center and have to talk all day, but whenever I hear recording of my calls I'm like "Wow, I sound like a 12 year old valley girl."

    I also get mocked for my Canadian tendencies. I have a bit of a "Candian accent" according to everyone I know, and they never let me forget it.

    AND I'm self-concious about the fact that I am so ridiculously into hockey, people make fun of me and say I'm a man. ]:

    For me it's..............................nose and ear hair. Everyday (sometimes twice) I check to see if any are getting too long and trim it right away. I even keep trimming scissors in my vehicle just in case.

    What's yours?

    , I misread your post and thought you said NOSE HAIR... I should be more conscious of my literacy skills apparently.

    I'm self-conscious of my speech (using the proper words, not sounding too idiotic) and fingernails. I bite them occasionally out of childhood habit but have grown them out when I want to.

    Job requires me to type though, so long is not practical unfortunately.

    I think she did say Nose hair!

    My ears nose and forehead are all too big.

    My toenails and fingernails grow to fast (I hate my feet in general).

    My hair is short now, and I miss having long and feminine hair, but even when it's long it's frizzy and curly.

    I have awful acne, and occasionally my eczema flares up.

    Wow I have a lot of problems. Lol.

    My teeth. My employer doesn't offer insurance. It'd be in the thousands to fix them all. Maybe someday I can afford it. It's hard and sometimes I just want to sit and cry. But my family and friends love me. And so does my wonderful boyfriend. So I am lucky that way.

    I'm happy you said this because I just ordered the basic kit yesterday. I tried it when I was younger, and It didn't do much, but my skin has improved since then.

    My smile; I have one tooth that, even with braces for almost 2 years, it never fully came down so I have to always turn my head to the left slightly when I smile for pictures. I find my ears too big and my feet are WAY too big (size 10 1/2W or 11) I don't like my voice either.

    I know exactly what you are talking about, and I concur!

    The way I walk due to my foot surgery. It will never improve & I just have to learn to live with it.
