    I think it's particularly hard to get over the emotional aspect that takes over when you are over weight. I look at old pictures and think "my god, I really looked like that? Why didn't someone say something." I look at pictures now and think "that's not me". Finding that feeling of attractiveness is taking longer than the weight loss...slowly I am getting there, but have a ways to go yet.

    I feel very similar to what you described there. Thanks for putting my feelings into the words I couldn't find. ;)

    First off there are a lot of good looking people on here! You are all attractive. As for me I don't have very much self confidence, I think I have nice traits but I tend to focus on the negative more than the positive. When I am fat, I think I have a pretty (but chubby) face...at a healthy weight I do feel better about myself in general, but then I don't particularly like the attention that I get from guys.

    I really think this is a little bit of the reason why I have avoided trying to look good and feel better about myself, because of my low self confidence I want to avoid attention so I just never bothered with my weight.

    Now I'm trying to get healthy, and be a good example for my son so he can grow up and learn healthy eating habits....and I guess the rest just comes with the territory.

    I think im ok. There are times I think 'oh wait I'm actually not that bad' and there are times I look in the mirror and I'm disgusted with what I see. My confidence as gone down hill since having my daughter and I'm trying so hard to work on it.

    Absolutely not. I look okay in photos at certain angles, but that's not what I really look like, what I see in the mirror.
    When I look in the mirror I see a fat monster. I hate mirrors.

    I think I am beautiful but there is always room for improvement. It's who I am as woman that I believe really makes me an attractive person.

    I'm pretty. People complain that I always say that I'm fat, but that's because it's my only complaint about myself.

    I don't like how I look...especially at the hairdressers where you have to stare at yourself (in my case) for at least an hour!

    You know what? I actually think I'm a bit of alright. Not super goregous, but definitely not dog ugly either. And even though I'm over weight, I always seem to have an admirer or two ;) So who am I to argue with someone over what they find attractive?!

    Eh...it comes and goes. This week because its the week before my period...not so much. But the week after my period...when the bloat is gone and the hormones have steadied a bit, I can be.
