"I'd never get a meet if I did that! I admire your bravery though I'm struggling to see your wobbly bits x" I'm sure you would Sparkles, you are lovely. To be honest, I thought something similar before posting this photo. Someone did a thread like this a while ago but it's taken until now for me to brave enough to put up a photo. | |||

I'm the same, it may not look like much to some but to me, my mum tum is truly awful. I am forever grateful for my kids (the reason it's there), but its hard to come to terms with changes in our bodies. | |||

"Great photo OP and a brave step in sharing something you are not comfortable with, some things we see as faults are not seen as do by others. Changed my avatar and made an old video public. I hate my tummy shelf and the fact it changes shape throughout the month, waking up and not knowing what size it will be that day, it’s not solid and likely never to be. I learned to love it years ago, it’s normally well hidden in photos with a hand or angle and well I just laugh at it now or make it laugh " Thank you so much Spurs. It takes so much strength to love something we aren't happy with. | |||

"Who doesn’t have wobbly bits ? There is always something we would change about our bodies , but then that makes us who we are . I have a hairy chest and I hate it . Gave up trying to get rid . Became a full time job so now just put up with it . You are lovely as you are , and should not be worried by any means . Beautiful xxxx" In my eyes hairy chests are the best Someone out there will always really appreciate the bits we are unsure about x | |||

"It's so lovely to see all the pictures that people are showing today. Last time I saw a thread like this, a few months ago, I wouldn't have had the courage to share, and a couple of other people who have posted their vulnerability here said the same back then. Even 2 or 3 weeks ago I wouldn't have posted. It is heartening to see people's journeys of self confidence, and wonderful that so many are so supportive of our community here. Fab can be a tough place for confidence, seeing people we perceive as perfect all the time, but moments like this when someone stands and says "this is me laid bare proud" and encourages others to do the same, they are moments when it shows what a great place the fora can be. I do want to add (so sorry to ramble), that I don't have the confidence for this picture all the time. When I took it on Monday I was so unsure, but I was convinced to post it. It's been hidden and unhidden a lot over this week. I didn't have confidence last night, and I might not tomorrow. But today I do. And that's the step in the right direction. When you do find your confidence for a time, embrace it, shout it from the roof if you want to. Or just know for yourself you feel good. But do remember that the people you see, on these fora, on fab, in the real world who you think are brimming with self confidence and self worth probably feel just as you do. " | |||

"It's so lovely to see all the pictures that people are showing today. Last time I saw a thread like this, a few months ago, I wouldn't have had the courage to share, and a couple of other people who have posted their vulnerability here said the same back then. Even 2 or 3 weeks ago I wouldn't have posted. It is heartening to see people's journeys of self confidence, and wonderful that so many are so supportive of our community here. Fab can be a tough place for confidence, seeing people we perceive as perfect all the time, but moments like this when someone stands and says "this is me laid bare proud" and encourages others to do the same, they are moments when it shows what a great place the fora can be. I do want to add (so sorry to ramble), that I don't have the confidence for this picture all the time. When I took it on Monday I was so unsure, but I was convinced to post it. It's been hidden and unhidden a lot over this week. I didn't have confidence last night, and I might not tomorrow. But today I do. And that's the step in the right direction. When you do find your confidence for a time, embrace it, shout it from the roof if you want to. Or just know for yourself you feel good. But do remember that the people you see, on these fora, on fab, in the real world who you think are brimming with self confidence and self worth probably feel just as you do. " I agree with this totally. It's a challenge to lay yourself bare for the world to see. Personally, I love seeing other wobbly bits and I think it gives us all a sense that we are more 'normal' than we think. You look beautiful | |||

"Who doesn’t have wobbly bits ? There is always something we would change about our bodies , but then that makes us who we are . I have a hairy chest and I hate it . Gave up trying to get rid . Became a full time job so now just put up with it . You are lovely as you are , and should not be worried by any means . Beautiful xxxx" That's very lovely of you to say. Lots of women love hairy chests, myself included | |||

"Good for you OP and great thread - while self-perception often leads us to find fault with our bodies, being able to embrace them for what they are and accept it doesn't change us the person that resides in them is a key step. Know that's not always easy to do, and I'm certainly a lot more self-conscious of my body these days than I was for years, and in fact am glad that I am - I went for far too long not caring how I looked, and look back now with a cringe. Anyway here's my warts and all pic - belly, moobs the works - it's me, plain and simple, I am working on improving it, not because I'm ashamed of it, but because I want to, and know for my health it's the right thing to do." That's a lovely post GM, it has really struck a chord with me. I have stormy so long trying to lose weight because I was ashamed of how I looked. Hopefully learning to accept who I am is the start of a healthy relationship with food and exercise. Wonderful photo by the way, thank you so much for joining in. | |||

"I think most women are self conscious about their tummys -especially us mothers (I've had 3 enormous babies). We all should say fuck it this is who i am! Like it or lump it! Haters can move aside and fans to the front of the queue." It's posts like this that makes me wish Fab had a like button for comments. This is spot on!! | |||

"Even all these supposedly "awful" pics are better than the best of mine. Hence no pics of mine. You all look lovely to me. " I think we all think like that Outsider. If you'd told me a year ago I would be posting these photos and these threads then I wouldn't believe it. It was said further up but we are all work in progress and all at different stages. | |||
