I am inviting everyone to take a minute to think about things they actually like about themselves!! A novel concept on this forum of dieting and fault picking I know, but lets give it a go eh?

I have been up since 4am (dont ask) and I watched 'Girl, Interrupted' (anyone seen it? Its good) about a girl in a mental institute. Now, it made me look at my self image, my self esteem and think how much better life would be if we could all just go easy on ourselves a little.

I am not disfigured or disabled in anyway - I am just fat and that is something I CAN control. So thats a GOOD thing. I'm not beyond repair!

So I got up, did make up (ME!! haha -at 6 am!! lol) and decided that I like my eyes. My eyes are slightly lined, green and I put on too much mascara but I like them. They aren't even fat! I can say, hand on heart that my eyes are skinny and healthy! And I like it. So instead of grabbing the rolls of my tummy or moaning about my thighs, today I focus on my eyes lol

What do you like about yourself?

hehe nice topic Rose

well, apart from being overweight there are a few things i like about my body! shock horror =D

1. I like my eyes.
2. I like my smile.
3. I like my upper arms and my upper back. They should both look amazing when I get this weight off

i probably like a couple other things, but I don't want to come across as vain....

I have nice eyes and a good smile. I know that because I have been told!
I'm a good friend, a good daughter and most of the time a good Mum (i hope).
I feel like a lucky person - I like that too!

I agree we spend far too much time focussing on the negative - life's too short, we should enjoy everything we can NOW!

Great thread!!
Hmmm well i have nice hair, Its very long (waist length) & looks good if i get time to straighten it, & i do get a nice colour put in!
I'm a nice person i think!! I try to see the good in everyone, whoever they are & i do revel in being quite quirky.
I think my hands are ok, & my face, obviously loosing the chin will help lol!!

i like my hair, its thick and soft. I like my hands and my eyes, without steady hands and good eye sight I couldnt work in high detail (painting, sculpture, animatronics).

I love my eyes, they are bright green and (I am told) very striking.

I also love my heart.

This thread is a genius idea!!!!
I love my eyes, they're grey which isn't a very striking color but i love the way they stand out against my pale skin and black hair!!!
I love my body shape, it's an hour-glass shape, too wide an hour-glass for my liking but still love the shape!!!
