Love yourselves

By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

So after seeing quite a few threads that seem to pit one body type against the other, I decided to do something different.

We are all different. Different shapes, different sizes and that is what makes us beautiful. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder but we need to be able to love ourselves too. That's not easy to do when society is constantly telling us we need to look a certain way to be classed as beautiful or sexy. Sexy is subjective, everyone will see sexy as something different and that's okay. If we were all the same the world would be a very boring place.

To back this up - as I can be just as bad for hating my body - I've changed my avatar to a pic of the bits I really don't like about me. It's completely unfiltered and raw for all to see, In the hope that some of you will join in and we can share our natural beauty with eachother.

I will do my best to reply to everyone but please support eachother too.

Happy Sunday all

As you know, hate mine. This is a completely unfiltered version and oh dear god. Hate that bit between the boobs and the bum.

Not fishing for compliments because nothing anyone can say will make a difference to my feelings about it.

I am happy with the person i am and the body i am in . Its taken alot of years to get to feel like this .

Self love isn't a narcissist thing , its coming to terms with who you are

Be as compassionate with your self as you are with others

For me it's not about body size/shape but it really is personality and you as a person.

And the undedinable quality which will make someone sexy in my eyes regardless of body

I don't love my body, however I'm thankful to it for getting me this far despite everything I've thrown at it.

I love myself as in the who of me, although I'm well aware I need much tweaking to like who I am, or moreso the "why" I am.

I love this!

I recently posted a photo of Babygirl on her back, nipples in clamps and tummy in full view.

She hate her tits as she thinks they are to small and her tummy because of stretch marks.

The bits she hates are also my favourite and I loved seeing her like that.

That photo is rapidly becoming very fabled and is also the one we have probably received the most direct messages about.

We are all so critical of our bodies but remember, what we think is unattractive may well be the bits others like the most.

I (fem) spent dacades struggling with body image issues. I'd avoid mirrors, refuse to be photographed, hide my body under shapeless clothes.

It has taken a long time for me to learn to love the skin I'm in & not to constantly compare myself to others. Now, whilst there are undoubtedly things I would like to change, & I still have occasional moments of insecurity, I am generally comfortable with my body, can see beyond the flaws, and celebrate it.

It's a beautiful pic and yes, agree completely about the bits we don't like are usually the parts others do. I'm very self conscious of my boobs and trying to build a better relationship with them but have a friend who absolutely adores them and all the bits I don't like.

The fashion/modelling industry is riddled with people with body issues. They are people just like you and I.

I love this thread, it's so nice to see a range of people posting and posting unfiltered photos - you're beautiful in your own unique way and I've really enjoyed seeing them. We're our own worst critic and we shouldn't be x

La la land

I have a picture of my stomach from LBC thread a while back. When I initially put it up I put it from private to public so many times. Would people see me differently because of my stomach etc etc.

But when speaking to someone else about it, they mentioned that I'm on the tipping point of being confident. And I guess that rang true, so I left it up. And I've not had one negative comment about that picture though I dislike it. Body confident I may not be but I'm really working towards accepting it

It’s taken me a long, long time to like my body with all it’s faults. Scars from surgeries, spongey. cellulite, wobbly bits and being married to someone who got enjoyment from body shaming. But, I love me now and that’s what’s important.

When I first joined a few years back I only did it so I could post anonymous nude pics and gauge whether anyone would actually be attracted to me. I was terrified people would see my floppy, scarred mum belly and run a mile! A few years down the line I still hate lots of bits of me, but I care soooooo much less and have even become a bit of an exhibitionist! I love looking at so many different bodies on here and quite often the bits I find hottest are the same bits they're insecure about, so I now think fuck it, some people will be into my dodgy parts too

"

So after seeing quite a few threads that seem to pit one body type against the other, I decided to do something different.

We are all different. Different shapes, different sizes and that is what makes us beautiful. They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder but we need to be able to love ourselves too. That's not easy to do when society is constantly telling us we need to look a certain way to be classed as beautiful or sexy. Sexy is subjective, everyone will see sexy as something different and that's okay. If we were all the same the world would be a very boring place.

To back this up - as I can be just as bad for hating my body - I've changed my avatar to a pic of the bits I really don't like about me. It's completely unfiltered and raw for all to see, In the hope that some of you will join in and we can share our natural beauty with eachother.

I will do my best to reply to everyone but please support eachother too.

Happy Sunday all "

Hey miss sparks

I will join in and post another pic....believe it or not the last one I posted I really despise but i know I have come a little ways as before I wouldn’t have even taken my shirt off.

(I’m nervous about this lol)

Although I'm still not brave enough to display the ugly belly haha! I just figure by the time someone's there to see that in person I'll distract them so they don't notice it

Great thread Sparkles..

At the ripe old age of 50 now its more about living with and loving what I do have.. Good and bad days we all have,but if we are healthy and happy ish then thats all that counts.. I think we always see the worst in ourselves and beat ourselves up about our bodies instead of making the most of them.

I have not posted any new pics

The ones I have do show my body in its true form. I was fat as a kid and always have been to this day.

I am 6'3 and weigh about 23 stone. I am a 48-50" waste and have been for over ten years.

I spent years being bullied over my size.

Yes I'm fat but if you have an issue with that then it's your issue not mine. If you can't see beyond it then your missing out one meeting a loving and caring man.

I know this is a personal view please feel free to comment in the thread or private.

Great thread sparkles, I hate this pic, it’s one I’d normally delete. But I thought I’d show the real me at the moment. My stomach is scarred and wobbly and misshapen due to surgery and losing weight and putting some of the weight back on.

I know I have body dysmorphia and really don’t know what people find attractive about me, but at 55 I need to start accepting this is me. X

Scars are part of life. They tell the story of you and although they may not look nice they should be loved and cherished as they made you who you are today and we wouldn't have you any other way

Gianluca, some bits cannot be changed. The stretch marks, the saggy apron after childbirth, the loose skin etc. It doesn't go away with exercise or diet. Not everything can be fixed and maybe we shouldn't try to?

There's things I may wish were different, but when ask if I'd change them, I'm not sure? Would I be me?

I understand how people may feel, and its heartbreaking to see the impact it can have on their happiness and life.

Everyone deserves happiness at the very least.

I had years of (my now ex) husband telling me I was horrible to look at n no one would want me, I piled the weight in n hated myself. I stopped making any kind of effort as it was pointless, I left him a year ago, n now on my own journey of rebuilding myself back to the person I once was. Some days are good some are just ok luckily it’s rare to have a bad one now. I’m starting to get my confidence back and being on here has helped massively as I dare to put more pics up etc... I just need to get my ass in gear n take the plunge to start socialising again, n keep reminding myself how amazing I am xx
