Recently, I've been trying to think positive, so to counteract the "What would be your ideal body" thread, I'm going to try to get you guys to say what you like about your bodies!

Let's see. I like

My feet. They are so cute! But they're kindy small for my height, which makes me clumsy. But that's part of who I am.
My eyes. They are a pretty hazel, a perfect combo of my mom and dad's DNA.
My eyebrows. When they are waxed, they look lovely, when they are not, they look like my moms.
My lips. Althought they are sometimes dry, they have a nice shape and are perfect for kissing! :love:
My skin. It's usually fairly smooth but today it's acting up on me. It's really pretty carefree, but I love to pamper myself with facial masks and bath salt soaks.
My height! I used to hate it, but now I'm proud of my 6 feet. I can get stuff from a top shelf and don't have to wear heels to look tall.

Good thread crystalteacup! It's about time we had some positive rather than negative threads in here :)

What I like:
My hands, they are very small and petite, the only thing I would change is I'd stop chewing my nails!
My stomach - its pretty nice and toned most of the time
My back and shoulders - I've been told I have a very feminine back by an ex, and I do weights to try and keep my upper body toned

I have really looooooooong legs, and nice calves. I like my legs.

Lately, because I've been focusing on how healthy I feel rather then how I look, I've had a much better body image.

I have great legs, too!

I also like my hair. It has it's dry/static moments, but for the most part it's full and lush and beautiful.

I have pretty good ankles, too.

And great wrists.

face is generally attractive (I guess).
slender form (I guess).
Muscular legs.
eh...I think I'm average in most domains here.

I like my wrists, and how my fingers look when I "pose" them (put them in shapes for dance or balance postures in yoga).

I like how my body heals light damage, and adapts to the way it's used.

I like my body as-is. It's not perfect, but it has its positive aspects. I do what I can to keep it in good shape, inside and out.

My lips, my eyes, my hair, my hands and my breasts.

I pretty much liked my body, in general, before I gained weight. But I'm losing weight now so I'm getting it back to what it was before.

Eyes and I have slender ankles and wrists (tell that to the rest of my body :brood: )

I like my nose, it's the perfect shape. I like my stomach, it's nice and flat. I like my shoulders too. I like my legs excluding about the top ten inches of them...

My height. I have always thought it was "just right"...
My hair. I used to hate it but I have come to realize no matter WHAT I do to it, it's pretty much always going to be the same, so I've quit fighting it and have come to accept it as pretty OK - always tangled and messed up, but hey, that's life... I love getting pink or red or orange streaks in my hair - I can try something new and know it'ss always grow out again...
My nails. I love taking care of my hands and nails and having manicures...
My toes. OK - I know, weird, I suppose, but I like my toes, love getting pedicures, love gettng a new toe ring or two...
The backs of my knees and the back of my neck because... well.... yeah....

Hmm...

When I really need it to do something, like lift an insane amount of stuff, or run away from something, or stay awake when I need it to, it usually does. And I like that. It's dependable. I hardly EVER get sick. Um...my skin never has a pimple and I never have cramps during that time of the month. :p My hair is a really deep, dark color and I wouldn't change it for anything. I've been told my smile is "addicting", so I am guessing that isn't so bad either. My body let me lose a lot of weight when I wasn't healthy and now I am.

Hmmm... what do I like about me??? Too much to name. LOL, j/k. :-P

My skin!! It's smooth and creamy and I've only had maybe 1 or 2 pimples in my entire life. Also, I like some of my facial features and my whole collar bone area - its a bit on the bony side but it looks GREAT in so many shirts (tunics, tank tops, turtlenecks, etc.). Um, I like my bust (lol), semi-slender figure and arms as well. :D

Everything :)

Of course next week I'll probably hate everything about it again. Body-image disorders are funny like that. I'm getting much better though and right now my body rocks according to me :up:

The fact that I wake up every morning to a body that still functions. I can run, jump, play, work, etc. I still have all my senses and all my body parts. I am not confined to a wheel chair and I praise God every day that I can begin another day which will hopfully better someone else's life.

I love my hair, and the fact that I'm still very flexible, even though I've been out of gymnastics for five years. My legs are very strong and shapely from all the riding I do, and I love my fingers... very long and slender from my guitar playing. I also love the fact that I have natually blonde hair and huge blue eyes... :)
This is a great thread. It really gets people to stop thinking about the negatives in their life and look at the bright side!

Amen! :up:

It's so good to keep that in mind. :yes:

I like my mouth. My teeth are pretty straight for having never had braces, they're pretty white, and still no cavities at age 25:D My lips aren't especially big, but I have a dramatic cupid's bow in my upper lip.
I like my shoulders. They're straight and shapely.
I think I'm pretty flexible considering how little I work on flexibility.
I really like my natural eyebrow shape.
My fair pinkish skin usually has a healthy glow.
I think my body is able to build muscle pretty easily.
