Self Conscious About My Body

I'm really self conscious about my body?

So I have been looking at other questions like this and everyone I see they all have pictures of them self and all the girls are dead skinny have a nice body and really pretty. Me on the other hand i'm like fat i'm 14 and i find it impossible to lose weight when i'm at school i feel HUGE! and i feel as if everyone is staring at me and judging my body and the way i look i have really low self esteem i can't eat in front of people at all unless it's my family i don't eat at school i'm super self conscious and i hate it when people call me fat and say there joking cause i take it to heart. last year i got picked to do running for sports day and i was so embarrassed of knowing almost everyone in school would be watching me i'm not even that fast i don't know why i was picked for it plus i was up against really fast runners i knew i'd come last and i'd just want to hide away in a hole so i told my mum i was ill and got the day off thank god but when i was telling josh my now bf he said no u should u need the exorcise i felt like dying inside. He said he was joking but yeah i'm really sensitive. One of my best friends is a guy called lewis he's kind of new to our school he's been there for about 6 month i would say and before he moved here i seen his pictures and he used to be MASSIVE! and now he's as skinny as a stick i'm like wth o.o all my friends have lost their puppy fat and are dead skinny where i'm just fat :/ i hate people looking at me and sometimes i just want to just cry because i'm tired of looking like me i deleted all my pictures of my self off facebook i only have ones from when i was like 5 I refuse to have any of my pictures taking at school. In just want to be skinny and pretty v_v

What are you self-conscious about?

Barring the obvious answer(my social aptitude and physical appearance), I’m pretty self conscious about how I struggle with tasks that involve spatial awareness.I find following certain verbal directions(or most directions in general, to be honest) to be quite difficult.For example; let’s pretend that my teacher asked me to locate something for them. While my teacher feverishly points at a certain area, their frustration rises by the second as I continue to struggle with obtaining the aforementioned object.This awful blip in cognitive ability lead me to the realization that I probably have an exceptionally low IQ. I took an IQ test in 3rd grade and got a 69(not really, but that’s probably within the ballpark of where I actually am if I take flukes out of the equation).Not only am I bad at finding things, I also struggle with procedural work such as labs and dance routines. While I can cognitively understand the directions(I tend to be the “manager” when working with lab partners), I’m hopeless when it comes to actualizing them.If I’m bad at following directions, how can I possibly succeed in the workforce? I’ve had some experience with working over the summer, and it took me a few days to get the acquainted with the tasks that were assigned to me…I’m a bit ashamed of my ineptitude.Very ashamed, actually.

What part of your body are you most self-conscious of?

Self-conscious. Adjective. Feeling undue awareness of oneself, one's appearance, or one's actions.I am very self-conscious about my body, my looks, and the way I move my body. I don't dislike any of it, or feel bad or embarrassed about it. But, because I've had a lot of people place a lot of emphasis on my body, and various parts of my body, since a young age, I am unable to be in the presence of anyone else without being conscious of them viewing my body. I am much too conscious of how other people look at me and different parts of me.I don't think there's anything particularly wrong with my body. It works, mostly, looks okay, does what it needs to do and quite a bit that I want it to do. Sometimes it's sick or uncooperative, but it's not too bad for someone who's been around for almost half a century.I've learned, over time, how not to care about other people's opinions about such things. I've learned how to assert my physical boundaries and how to avoid most unwanted touch. I'm still self-conscious, though. Early training is hard to overcome.

I want to have sex, but im self conscious!?

alright so me and my boyfriend have been talking about sex for a while, but im just really self conscious about my body. well not necessarily my body, but more my boobs! they're not big at all, and yeah. do guys care alot about that? I kind of want to keep my bra on, but theres no way he'd want to. :/

Why am i so Self-conscious about my smell?

I have no body smell, if it's anything, it's in a good way because of shampoo and soap. But I'm really self-conscious being near people or walking past them like going between 2 people in a room or class desks because I'm scared I smell bad. But I've asked everyone and I have no smell, I don't understand, how do I stop this?

Self conscious about my body for swim team?

Hey!

I'm also on a swim team and I'm in high school. If you are younger and are joining a team, it's perfectly fine. People develop at different times. My mom's friend's daughter is almost 18 and still hasn't hit puberty and nobody makes fun of her. Some people are very accepting these days. If anybody makes fun of you, that means that they have low self esteem and have to make someone who feels confident feel bad to make themselves feel good. Don't wear padding. Just don't do it. You never know what can happen in the water. There are girls on my swim team who barely have boobs too. They don't let it bother them. You are on a team to improve your skills, compete against other schools, meet new people and HAVE FUN, not to make fun of each other. After my first season of being on a team, these girls could practically be my sisters. We have a lot of fun together on deck, in school and at our pasta parties. Honestly, I think you're just paranoid. You need to build up your self confidence level and remember that there ARE other people who have a tiny chest. It's how they were made. Btw, there have been girls who have tried to make themselves look bigger than they really are and when they got into the pool, it showed and they were even more embarrassed than before. We don't go around and check out how big everybody's boobs are because we know that everyone is different and that no two people are built the same. We are there to swim and have fun (like i said before) not to be mean, critical and point out each other's differences. All you need to do is relax and stop worrying. (worrying and stressing causes wrinkles! ;))

I feel self-conscious about my stick-thin body?

i empathise with you, but i don't think it's fair how you (and a lot of skinny people) are being treated. why is it acceptable for skinny people to receive comments on their weight, but fat people aren't generally told how big they are, and how bad they look? granted, a lot of thin people want to be that way, but in your situation where you are desperately trying to gain weight, it's not fair. it's like saying to a fatty who's dieting, "oi, fatty, you need a treadmill" - completely dismissive of their efforts to change.

anyway, soz about that long rant. firstly, (if you aren't already doing this), you could eat a higher calorie diet with only healthy foods using all food groups. i don't suggest eating high saturated fats like take out meals simply because they contain loads of quick, high calorie ingredients because you'll be unhealthy on the inside. try eating loads of protein and good fats, such as: eggs and white meat, and fresh fish like salmon for your omega 3 oils, respectively. also, eat loads of vegetables and fruit (mostly veggies - contains less sugar than fruit) make sure you eat about 1800- 2000 kcals a day.

strength training may also help with weight gain, for pure muscle. try incorporating dumbbells and even your own body weight in exercises to build muscle. examples of exercises: squats, lunges, bicep curls, crunches, leg raises etc. try lifting the max. weight you can comfortably lift for 10 reps, about 3 sets to start off with. DON'T worry about 'looking too masculine and muscly' - this doesn't happen, and takes a lot more than a few 'light-ish' weights and healthy diet to get the 'bodybuilder look'. you'll look toned and not so skinny.

Good luck!
