Body Issues?

I just wish everyone would recognize that we are all beautiful people individually, and life would be boring if we weren't..

I do believe there is a time in everyone's life when they decide they are either too fat or too skinny. I'm skinny, I would say, only because I am tall. I can weigh a lot and you would never know because I'm hitting 6 foot. I almost only eat crap food so I guess I have a fast motabalisum. But some people don't work the same way. Some people have to watch their weight and some people just 'think' they're fat and in all reality, they are nothing close. TV, Movies, magazines, everything features skinny people, and when a person on a show is heavy set, they are usually the weird kid, or the one who gets picked last in kickball, and how is that helping girls today? It's not! Some people think they are too skinny, so they just eat and eat food that they think will make them fat, which doesn't help, because all it does is hurt your health, and because maybe your tall, or have a fast motabalisum, it could be a number of things, but because of any reason you don't gain weight quickly, you stay skinny, which is never a bad thing! As long as your healthy and happy, who gives about your body? Go out and have fun.

I just have a really hard time believing I'm pretty or more than that when I spent my entire life before the last few years considering myself a dog and not being considered a very pretty girl by others. Something in my features has changed in the last few years and I seem prettier... It's weird because, If i go out dressed really nice and feeling beautiful, I end up feeling like a whore or something... and if I go out dressed greasily I feel more at home but I also feel ugly. Bleh. I'm okay with my body, in fact I'm trying to gain weight healithy. But da face and all this oddness up here.... bleh.

there's nothing i like about my physical self except my hands, and that's because i'm a gamer and they're pretty toned in comparison to the rest of me. lol.

I'm a lot better compared to the last time I posted in this forum. I'm turning seventeen next month, I'm not restricting anymore, I'm not purging anymore, and I'm at a healthy weight for my age and body type. I've accepted the fact that I will never be thin without restricting and I like being curvy. I may have stretch marks and my clothes may not fit as well, but I eat whatever I want and I'm happy now

I spent the first twelve years of my life being called a 'fatass' nearly everyday; I really don't like the way I look, but for other reasons. I'm about 5'9" and 150 pounds, and I may look a little chubby, but I don't consider myself 'fat.'

It's really easy to tell people to just love themselves, and it would be nice if everyone did, but it's just not that easy.

I'm three inches less and weigh about the same.

don't give me that sad face. I know people who are 5'4" and 150 and they look great.

I'm so out of shape though. I need to start biking again and lose all the leg fat I've got.

I wish it was that easy, but after all the fat comments you get (as an innocent child) that shit sticks with you & never goes away sadly. I've spent most of my time trying to get into shape and eat right. Even though I've been active for four years now, I am still not where I want to be in my weight goals. Blame it on genetics I guess, I have thick thighs and an ass, which is extremely hard for me to tone. It's getting better though, I've been doing Insanity plus other workouts on Youtube. I've lost some weight according to people, so that's helpful. I don't want to be Kate Moss thin, but I would like to be toned and be able to fit into jeans comfortably. I would like my thighs to not rub together every god damn second of the day. It'd be nice to wear a bikini, and not feel like crying. I'm 5'5 and I'm not sure what I weigh :O lol but I fit into mediums, and some smalls.

I'm 5'3' and I currently weigh 120 lbs. My heaviest weight was probably four or five months ago when I weighed 151 lbs, and I've worked my ass off to get to the size I am now, but I battled with ED when I was a teenager, and you never really get rid of that voice, so there are definitely those bad days when I still look in the mirror and think I'm humongous.

Strangely, I've always been pretty confident. After my recovery, I never really worried that much about my weight, and while the rest of my friends were going on crash diets and looking for quick fixes, I never let it get to me. Though I've never fallen in the overweight range, I've always been the bigger one out of all my friends. I'm curvy, that's just the way I was made. I'm always going to carry a little more weight, I have wide hips, thick thighs, and D-cup breasts, but I'm coming to be okay and accepting of it.

I know exactly how you feel. I may not have the bigger breasts, but I have wide hips and thick thighs. I like to think that because (Don't mind me about to be a bit conceded right now) I have a really nice butt. Since I've started a new mood stabiliser, I've gained approximately 30 pounds from my normal weight, so I'm at about 130. Luckily, it went all to my butt and thighs. I'm almost 99% certain that the majority of it went to my ass, which I'm perfectly okay with because I know more males that like the booty instead of the boobies.

Pretty sure it'd be easier to just list the things I don't have issues with. I like my eyelashes, eyes and my teeth. That's about it.

I just feel like I truly hate my body. I try to lose weight but it's hard when half the time my mom decides to buy junk food out of nowhere and I have nothing else to eat... I just feel disgusted by myself. I feel like everyone that I'm attracted to would be disgusted by me because I'm fat and ugly.

I used to have awful body issues. Sometimes I wouldn't leave the house because I just hated myself so much. But now I'm older and I've learned how to rock my facial features and my body size. Also, I've lose 23 pounds in the last 8 months. I'm 5'2 and I used to 163 but I'm now 140. While I'm still not at my goal body shape, I don't have such bad body issues. I still have issues with my tooth gap (I don't care how "in" it is in fashion, I don' like it.) but I'm going to have that fixed by this time next year, I think. Over all I'm still fat but I'm smaller than I used to be, so that's a start. My giant ass forehead will forever make me feel ugly but as long as I have Tyra Banks to tell me to rock my 5 head I will accept it.

I feel terrible about my body most days. I mean, I've definitely gotten better about being more body positive, but I still look down at my legs and think they're fat or whatever. I've never been overweight in my life, and for most of my life after I turned 13 I've been underweight. Yet, I STILL see myself as fat. I definitely believe society has a lot to do with it. :(

I wish we could all be happy no matter what we weigh...

I'm 5'10" and have stick figure arms and chicken legs. I'd love to be curvy, but my momma gave all the buns, boobs, and thighs to my younger sisters. Oh well, this is me. I'm trying to learn to love it, the struggle is real though.
