Insecurities

arms definitely. my arms are HUUUUGEEE!

im insecure about my baby pouch that no matter how much weight ive lost still is there. im insecure about my weight because i carry it in my stomach area so I have a hard time with certain styles. I’m insecure about my acne, and the fact that I have a bunch of stretchmarks that even cocoa butter couldn’t clear up. But you know what? I have a nice chest that girls envy, long curvy legs that look amazing in heels, feet that are destined for sandals, jet black hair that people buy hair dye to achieve the same color, slanted eyes that compliment eyeliner, and a great smile. So I just focus on the good and hide the bad :)

I’m really glad a lot of you are opening up on this. :]

I’m definitely insecure about how thin I am. I feel like a walking stick. I’m 5’4" and weigh about 97 pounds. I eat a lot and get in as much protein as possible but I can neeevvveeerrrr gain weight. :(

@digitalmk: fast metabolism bites.

I’m 5’11" and LOVE to wear heels, but sometimes, I think I go overboard. I tend to avoid platform shoes because they can top off at 5 to 6 inches! So sometimes I cruise around at a staggering 6’5". People definitely stare. annoying!

Man, I thought I was insecure before, then I had a baby, and POW. It’s a whole new set of insecurities. I think the biggest one is my stomach. It’s bad enough that it’s a pooch, but then throw in stretch marks and the fact that the skin is still catching up to the weight loss, and my midsection looks like a topographic map. And I have a temperamental butt that looks positively flat when wearing some things, and practically rotund in other things. It’s bizarre. And for most of my life, I’ve been embarrassed by my laugh — overall, I’m a very quiet person, but my laugh is explosively epic. I’ve tried very hard to tone it down, but it just comes out! Neighbors have called the police because of it.

Though, like others have mentioned, I try to remind myself I have other redeeming qualities. Two favorites: hair that I don’t have to do anything to, other than wash it. I never dry it, hardly comb or brush it unless necessary, and it just looks great on its own. And my girlishly slim ankles. They look good in heels. :)

My big stomach and love handles (WHO CAME UP WITH THAT NAME!) are my biggest insecurities. I’d love to wear certain things, but my stomach prevents it from happening. I have nice legs and a pretty smile so it helps. I try to focus on my assets and hide all the things I dislike. I’ve started working out again…but having to deal with this weight issue ALL MY LIFE is overwhelming at times. I’m just learning to be comfortable in my own skin and accept myself the way I am. If I can’t accept myself, I can’t expect anyone else too.

^Same here – two of my biggest insecurities are my belly and love handles. What I’m MOST insecure about are my legs. I’m so bowlegged and unlike my belly and love handles, I can’t do anything about them. They’re the worst.. There’s nothing I can wear that’d possibly flatter my legs. :/

I have a friend whose bowlegged and pigeon toed. She still wears mini skirts/dresses and it looks hot on her. I think we all need to come to terms with our dislikes about ourselves. We’re really hard on ourselves. And most of my male friends find bowlegged girls sexy. And you’re really pretty…so who cares about legs. LOL

where do i begin? i think my butt and thighs are huge and jiggly, i hate my toes cause my toe nails grow like…upwards? i dont know, it’s weird. i hate my skin because it seems like this minor acne will never go away. i also don’t like my stomach cause when i eat it looks like i’m pregnant and won’t go away for hours! hmm..i think i covered all my insecurities. I used to be way more insecure, like in middle school and beginning of high school, but now i just don’t really care and try to dress for my body type the best i can so i look good haha :)

I’m getting a lot better than my elementary days. I do have my days but, my biggest insecurity would be my toes, b/c they are skinny! lol I have weight issues as well b/c I think that I’m too skinny, I eat a hell of a lot, my metabolism is very fast, I just think that I was made to be skinny w/ a little bit of curve.

I have many flaws and I will flaunt them until my time has come.
^_ !

I’m not particularly fond of my thighs, calves, stomach or complexion.

My boobs and my stomach, I think. I have ribs that stick out a little more than at most people and that makes my boobs looks smaller and my stomach look fatter.
I hate it :(

I kknow some girls would kill for a fast metabolism but sometimes it’s just unbearable. I want at LEAST somewhat of a curvy figure, and i try and try to gain weight but I’m always stuck at the SAME weight. I’m 5’2" and 88 pounds. I don’t have a womanly shape, I feel like a boy.

Uhh thanks for making this cause its nice to vent… I hate my stomach and my thighs and like… I can’t do anything about cause I’m getting over a four month illness and I can barely get around school. It is soo frustrating I have gained 40 pounds in the last couple years!! I feel horrible about it.

I am in a love/hate relationship with my hair.
It’s like a mane of long, chocolate brown curls. This is when I love it. When I hate it – esp when it rains and I have no umbrella – it feels like I just came out of the caves/a heavy metal concert.

my shoulders. i have super wide shoulders. ):

This may seem strange, but I hate how defined my chin is. Whenever I smile in photos, my chin looks like a dagger that’s ready to find some blood.

My short, stubby, fat legs. I’m 4’11 and I wish more than anything I could have skinnier thighs. :/ And everyone says I have huge boobs, when they’re really the same size as most girls in my school. They just look larger on my small frame, but none of my friends believe it. It’s incredibly annoying.

my forearms. I dont like to wear tank tops or sleevless stuff. Im just think there super big and gross looking. I always hide them with sweaters even in the summer.

where do i start! I’m 5’3 and weigh 122 lbs! I hate my legs and butt. Its not Fat but its has no shape. just gross. I just want to be leaner like those gorgeous models. I just wish i could look like them. I’m determined to fight my genes. i’ll force myself to have a faster metabolism! I want to get to 110 lbs but it seems impossible. ne help? this was a good venting!

the one thing i’m really insecure about is my skin. i still get acne at 21 years old and my skin scars easily. so even if a pimple only lasts for a few days, the scar is there for months. it sucks!! and i feel like my pores are eternally clogged and large :(

you guys are all beautiful the way you are.
and you all are blessed with different bodies and and amazing fashion minds
to inspire others with your body types that they can look good in clothes and to show their body dosnt get in the way of who you are and expressing yourself.

confidence is key.

my ribcage is huge, i have no boobs, i’m pigeon toed, acne, i’ve had braces for four years and counting, i hate my stomach. and i have this bone that pokes out in the middle of my chest, its crazy. it makes me look ridiculous if i stand up straight so i have to slouch to hide it. but i have nice feet, nice legs, nice shoulders, good hair most of the time, and an alright butt:)
