Are you happy with your body?

I adore my body, and always strive for better. Some days are better than others, but I am in a process, I AM a process, and I am very happy with who I am and how I got here.
There just isn't enough time in life to worry about the things you can't change. And if you can... why not do something about it?

A few years back, I lost 75 pounds and felt much better. (Not just health-wise, but emotionally felt better about myself.) Since then, it's been a contant battle to keep my weight down. At the beginning of the year, I dropped another 20 pounds (in 20 weeks, which I blogged about), but have gained back about 10 of those pounds. If I could, I'd modify my body's metabolism so that I wouldn't need to work so hard to keep the pounds off. (Then again, having a job sitting behind a computer all day long doesn't help.)

All in all, though, I'm quite satisfied with my body. You won't see me doing any nude modeling anytime soon, but I have no major body issues.

I have a lot I'd like to change...but I'm getting better with how I feel about it.

These are the three things that I do not like about my body in order of importance:

1. The size of my penis. I'd make my penis bigger before I'd change anything else.

2. My small stature. I'm 5'7" tall, and 15 lbs under weight.

3. My complexion. I have moderate acne scarring.

These things have been big issues in my life.

i would never waste money on something that is suppose to be natural

I wake up some days hating myself. Then I wake up other days like today, and say, damn, I wouldn't change a thing for the world.

I wouldnt do anything surgical to change it, but after I had my son my stomach never has looked the same. I only gained 24 lbs during my pregnancy, but I have so much extra skin and crazy stretch marks.

I don't like my body at all really, and it just seems I hate it more since I have been working out. I take birth control pills, which usually make me feel pretty unstable and depressed. I try to deal with it. I suppose it probably doesn't help that I've been ragged on for a lot of my life by people close/important to me about being fat and less social than I "should be".

I hate my weight being very obese sucks. I am on a diet and working on it.

I would like to be toned again, get rid of some of my "battle scars" from pregnancy....and birth for that matter, and if my boobs were closer to the same size (about a one cup difference right now) then I would be completely happy with my body.

Great answers everyone!

My body and I aren't friends. *sigh*

I'd like to tone up a bit. I did get a Wii Fit for Christmas which I'm very excited to set up and try out.

I actually used to love my body, but my mom always got angry at me when I said I liked how I looked. So I started making up things to hate, then I actually started hating them...

If I could change my body, I'd have multiple penises that could cum independently of one another.

I like my body from the neck down, and the waist up. Not a big fan of my face, especially because my teeth are crooked, and I have way too much forehead for a 20 year old guy. As for the below the waist, I sometimes feel annoyed because my foreskin doesn't retract all the way. I also get frustrated sometimes, that I can't handle anal stimulation as easily as other guys. I want to be fucked by a guy, but I know it will hurt, if I don't work up to it. I'm jealous of those guys who handle huge cocks, their first time, and love it.

I dislike a lot of things about my body. But at least it is now a dislike instead of a hatred. I've had an eating disorder for 10 years so I'm not sure it's realistic for me to ever really like my body. I'm mostly just working on tolerating it now.

I was self conscious about my body hair, but I've since gotten laser hair removal and feel a lot better about that.

I am at peace with the way I look. I think surgery doesn't fix your mindset and no matter how good someone tells you it looks, if you doubt it for on iota things can spiral quickly into an addiction to surgery. (Ahem, looking at you Heidi Montag.) I yam what I yam ya knows?

Id love my body if it wasn't for a few places. Raise your hand if you ever shaved your tummy at a young age because of someone else. Thats what i did now i feel like i have a mans stomic and bleach it to keep it light colored.

I love my body, Multiple Sclerosis and all -- even though that isn't easy to say. Without MS I would not be in-tune with my body as I am today. Yes, I wish I didn't have it, but I do, and no amount of anything will change it.

I love the places my body has brought me--from coast to coast, Italy and Greece, mountain summits, secret waterfalls, hiking alone to a secluded stream for salmon and trout fishing, fishing with Kodiak Bears, kayaking with whales, snorkeling with sea turtles, as well as, the wonderful pleasure/pain it can endure!

Life is good!

I am ok with my body and have no problem getting naked in front of my boyfriend he loves me the way I am. But sometimes I still feel a little insecure about my thighs. I have started working out lately and I am happy with the results. My legs and thighs are looking more fit and toned. Other than my thighs I am happy with what I have.

I don't feel terrible about my body and I certainly have my moments where I absolutely love it. But I also have those moments where I don't, but overall I think there are just a few minor improvements I'd like to work on.

I hate the way I look and always have. I was a heavy kid (though by current standards, I would have been considered "average") and got bigger in college, until I was a size 16 and miserable. I wore a 38DD, had a 37-inch waist and 45-inch hips, and thighs like tree trunks. During my last year of college, I decided I was tired of being a 200 lb. blob that got winded going up a flight of stairs and decided to exercise and eat better. Now, I'm 148 lbs. and shrunk everything down to size 6 (if that weight seems high for a size 6, it's because I build muscle like a dude). Sounds great, right? It's not. I look in the mirror and I still see the fat chick staring back at me. I see the soft, droopy, deflated breasts that are mostly skin, the lumpy, cellulite-ridden thighs, my enormous ass, a pudgy stomach, and a zebra's-worth of stretch marks on my inner arms and hips. My husband has been telling me for years that I'm the most beautiful woman he's ever seen and that he loves my body, but I don't know if I'll ever be able to believe that.

I love my body for the most part but i would like to change my weight a little bit. i dont like my stomach since i had a c section with my son.

I love my body. Would change a couple of minor things in a perfect world, but I don't actually plan on changing them, nor do I think I really need to.

I am happy enough with the shape of my body, kinda squishy and going pear shaped, I just wish it wasn't rebelling so hard. I have severe environmental allergies, which manifest in all sorts of unpleasant ways. I am on immunotherapy shots but it might be another month before I see results and years before I can stop the shots altogether. To make things worse the last few weeks I have had trouble sleeping and next to no appetite, several times I have had to throw away a half eaten meal.

I had a lot of body issues when I was growing up, especially having to do with being chubby.

It's taken many years and some really lovely and positive people in my life for me to get to where I am now. I am quite accepting of my body now. I think that larger size ladies are HOT. And I try and reflect these positive feelings back at myself. I appreciate the imperfections in others and try to accept and love my own imperfections.

I love my body. While I know in my head that I'm luckier than most in the build department, but I've never really been happy with my butt until now. My boyfriend has been a great ego booster for me. He's constantly telling me how awesome my butt looks, and I believe him. Now I don't really know of anything that I would change.
