Comfortable With My Body

I'm so uncomfortable with my body?

You sound a little like me. I am short and have big boobs (but they are a D cup, not a B). If you used to be skinny, the best thing you can do is just exercise and eat healthy! Honestly it isn't rocket science. Everyone is looking for a quick and easy way to lose weight but you really have to work at it. It won't be a quick fix but you'll feel better from the inside out. I promise you will feel better if you eat healthy and exercise.

I am not saying you should lose weight. I am 5'2" and weigh 127 pounds and i can assure you that i am NOT fat. 90 pounds sounds way too skinny for someone who is 5'3". Just be healthy and your weight will fall into place naturally. You need to exercise and eat healthy but continue to do that even after you lose weight or you will gain it back. Adapt to a healthier lifestyle and you will feel more confident and beautiful.

EDIT:
I read your other questions. Everyone is different in terms of how they are motivated. For some people just looking at pictures of skinny celebrities or skinnier people can help. Honestly one thing that helped me was pintrest (lame i know haha). Go to the diet and fitness section and they actually have a lot of motivational quotes that can help! Also, sometimes looking at a picture of how you looked before could help. You just have to develop willpower. Set small goals each day and reward yourself with something (not food!) when you achieve them. Start small!

I also have the problem of being jealous of skinny people. I always think WHY can't I look like that? But the truth is, it doesn't matter. Whether they are skinny or not doesn't effect you. Only you have the power to change you. Every time you start to get jealous think about why you get jealous. It really helps. There are going to be skinny people everywhere. You might think they're prettier than you or skinnier or have perfect bodies or skin. But the truth is, a lot of the time they're even more insecure than you and wish they had what you have! There are billions of beautiful people in this world and you are one of them.

I know this is cliche but you are beautiful for who you are and if you feel beautiful on the inside, you will glow on the outside! I promise. I've seen it work :)

Good luck!

Are you comfortable with your body?

I am comfortable with my body at this point in my life. What makes a person beautiful is not the "hotness" of their body but the sum of their life experiences and how they react to them.

When women are young they tend to internalize all the body issues that are a form of manipulation from the media, diet and beauty industries. There are no perfect people and at some point most people realize that. But that only happens when they get older and have more real life experince.

Most women don't come into their personal power until they hit 40, sounds like you are getting there ahead of the curb.

Age and experience will teach you that exterior features will change but real beauty comes from within.

I'm Not Comfortable With My Body?

Ok, here's the problem, I have 15 years old, my measures are:
84cm/33inches breast, 60cm/23.5inches on the weist and 86cm/33.8inches hips... And 1.65m/5f5inches tall
Am I Toooo Skiny?!
Am I Ok?!
Some people keep telling me that need to eat more, that I'm too skiny, and everyone worries about me, and they call me anorexic when you barely see my ribs, or bones, well, u can feel then clearly, but I mean, I don't look at myself like an anorexic, bulimic girl, I try to eat, but I've never been a person tht eats a lot, I just eat the necesary...
Some people say my body's perfect, but they are fat, and this is makin me embarrased even of going out in a bikiny. My arms are a torture, the are very skiny, thank God my legs are nice, but, 4 real, how can I win weight, or at least, do u think I am fine, or too skiny?!
I want to point that I AM NOT anorexic, nor bulimic nor something like that, because I dont see myslf fat!!!
Help PLZ!

I'm too uncomfortable with my body to have sex?

My boyfriend and I are getting pretty serious, so eventually we are going to have sex, but I keep holding off because I am terrified of him seeing me naked because I am on the larger side (hes extremely skinny too, which makes me even more self conscious). I absolutely hate my body, I am considered "curvy". I've never been thin. In fact, I used to be rather obese, but lost 60ish pounds about a year ago. Anyways, I wish i was skinny like so many girls are, I feel like my boyfriend will be disgusted in my body. I have loose skin (from weight loss), a bit of a tummy, and thunder thighs! My legs are huge compared to the rest of me. I'm trying to lose weight, but I cant keep making excuses for not having sex, when I really do want to. How can I be more comfortable? Here's a picture of me...do you think he will find me gross when naked? :( Thanks!

I'm too uncomfortable with my body to have sex?i?

Soo.. My boyfriend & I have been dating for two years. I'm 16 almost 17. Anyways.. We've been talking about having sex. He's had sex before, but I'm still a virgin. He keeps bringing it up in conversations, & he seems like he's ready to have sex already. I'm really uncomfortable with my body.. I'm scared of what he'll think of me.. Is that weird? He's had sex already, so what if I'm not what he expected? Any advice???

How can I feel comfortable in my own body?

You either work on your body until you start being comfortable in it, or work on your mind until it learns to accept your self-image and ignore other people.Or combine both - do your best to slim down, like eating small portions of nutrient-rich foods while cutting off junk/soda if they are in your diet, move more when you can, like parking far and walking, sitting on an exercise ball instead of a chair, drinking water between meals and before eating… etc, while putting up mental walls against judgmental attitude of others. Repeat positive things about yourself and be your own best friend (care for yourself like you would for a loved one).And remember that feeling victimized is a choice. You might not be able to control what other people do, but you can choose how you react to them. I know that parents’ words can get very deep under your skin, they are the people you’ve trusted from birth to guide you, but if they hurt you, even with good intentions, learn to distance yourself and not care, like you would remove your child from someone’s judgmental attitude and tell him/her positive things instead.

How can I become comfortable in my body?

Most of us, men and women alike, have on-going love-hate relationships with our bodies.Our lives aren't the same, day-to-day, month after month, year after year. Sometimes we are happy and active, other times more still but more stressed, maybe a bit depressed. And these shifts manifest in our body, our form, and more importantly our perception of that form.Stress, cortisol, hormones and/or genes have some part in the shape or weight our bodies take on. So.... How do we get comfy with it all? It takes perseverance and acceptance. A lot of us never get there.While the media, and almost all the external world, defines a standard of beauty, ideal or what the picture of health ‘should’ look like, we need to turn up the volume to our own voices and learn to accept that which we see in the mirror. We can learn, and it IS a choice, to shut out all of the external noise, and reach a place of peace with ourselves, inside and out.The body is simply flesh, bones, and all kinds of nifty viscera. Everything else is perception and industry.Look in that mirror and say:Everyone has flaws, but mine are exceptional. Unique. Look at me!!!My imperfections are lovable.I love you, you sexy thang. And now, I will let someone else love ALL of THIS. They deserve it. I deserve it.Oh, just try it. I dare you. : )Self confidence is sexy. Self acceptance is sexier AND contagious. You are who you are no matter what shape you’re in. Strive to be healthy and your best you. Everyone else will follow suit in admiration.We are moving away from all the shaming to a place of….yeah, look at me, not perfect, so what? jealous?Live your life to its fullest, don't give in to superficial inconsequential artifice. Live your life FOR YOURSELF, not for others, not against faux standards or the brainwashing of industry and commerce.Opt OUT.

How do I get more comfortable with my body while dancing and get better at it?

Don't keep your body stiff while dancing. Keep it loose so that you can get your dance moves correct. If you are not a dancer it will take time. Practice is required. To get better at it you have to enjoy each and every beat of the song. Let the rhythm of the song flow in your body and you will give your best. And one thing about dance: don't dance for the heck of dancing. Just enjoy it and you will get better at it.
