>>161241This. I'm just really average, I think.
I'm short, could stand to lose 5-10lbs, and have b cup boobs that I can't complain about, but I can't really praise either. My ex gave 0 shits about breasts, and actually didn't like big boobs at all, so hopefully that helps some of you girls. My current bf, however, while claiming he loves mine clearly prefers bigger ones. Ah, all the freudian slips he has about boobs.
My lower stomach has some fat on it that I need to lose, but it's something you can't see at all with clothes on unless I've gorged myself. The thing I'm really insecure about structurally is my lower body. So basically my hips, butt, and thighs. I already have short legs, so that makes me feel disproportionate as fuck. Then in comparison to my shoulders, my hips are kind of narrow with close-set legs. Luckily, my waist is fairly narrow, and I'm thin-ish so the smaller waist and thigh gap give the illusion of a bigger waist. If I'm bloated, though, I instantly become a rectangle since my thigh gap also disappears.
Oh, and yeah, my ass sucks. I've gotten complimented on it by men and women, but I think it's really small. Round? Yes. But big? Not at all. I'm like a step above a flat ass. I've been told that my ass has become almost purely muscle because of my slimness (that seems to only stick to my tummy and face) and a lot of weightlifting. And in comparison to my thighs, my butt is definitely small.
But my face. Jesus christ. My nose bridge is wide, because I think I broke it in kindergarten. My cheeks have been droopy since high school. My eyebags and nasolabial folds can be TERRIBLE on some days. My eyelid folds used to be uneven, one with a tapered fold and the other hooded, but now that they have evened out, they are kind of weird looking. I feel like most people have beautiful eyes, but mine are ugly.
And my body hair is annoying as shit.

>>161285I fluctuate from a size 9 to 11 often. Depend on the shoes or store. On average, I think I'm a 10 at 5 foot 6. I have no problem with my size other than they are wider than most female family members & friends, so it makes me a bit self conscious when around them. The males in my family however have big feet, and I'm right behind my dad when it comes to shoe sizing.
Body issues in general? I have really asymmetrical breast. In my case, one is bigger and perkier, while the other is smaller and looks like a deflated balloon hanging off to the side of my chest. The only things that could make them look somewhat equal are push up bras and getting my period in which the smaller one grows and actually seems to match the bigger one.
I also have a fat mons veneris. I just find it really grows and it makes me feel fat whenever it jiggles around. I don't think I could change it even if I loose a lot of weight because according to my mom, it's been this way ever since I was born.
Oh and my teeth. They are white as snow and clean, but they are really small (looks like baby teeth), uneven, and crooked. You see, I would have opted for braces but I heard braces changes your jaw + lip shape and idk how it'll affect me. I've just started to accept my face and work with my features, but I figure the acceptance would've been useless if it changes my face and I have to learn to accept it all over again.
No. 161294
>>161293Dif anon, having braces in your mouth tends to push your lips forward. In terms of what the braces themselves do, it can change your jaw, but it shouldn't unless your orthodontist wants to straighten it.
What might be a better option is either invisilign braces, which are more like a series of retainers pushing your teeth, or getting veneers.

No. 161336
>>161333This. Big boobs, butts and wide hips are the result of estrogen, more estrogen=more fertile, being fertile is linked to femininity.
Estrogen is a female hormone that is responsible whether you get curvy body or formless body. In women whose estrogen levels are low, fat packs to the wrong places, such as the stomach. In women with elevated androgen levels (male hormones) are completely flat or formless, like boys. Hormonal imbalance can also cause obesity or being underweight, as well as excess estrogen can cause obesity.
Vogue did a survey in 2012.
"The result is clear: 81% of the men interviewed preferred curvy women to skinny women. Fuller-figured women are thought to have the right mix of fun and sexiness: they’re seen as more feminine (65%) and more seductive (52%) than thin women.”
This is from Psychology Today.
"Evidence from all over the world suggests that men strongly prefer women who have a lot of body fat (roughly 30 percent of their body weight) and whose body fat is distributed in a particular way, with very little in the waist but much more in the hips, buttocks and thighs, producing a small waist-hip ratio.”
Japan is just a very sexist country that has a problem with infantlizing women. They don't want women to look like women, they want women to look like kids.

>>161344Have you at least tried waxing anon? I don't wax too frequently, but I have found less hair grows in the areas that I have waxed, like my legs and arms.
Also, what do you use on your hair? My first advice to everyone is to switch to a non sulfate shampoo. It's too harsh to use on a regular basis (I do keep at least one bottle in my shower that is sulfate based mostly because there are those times when I've used too much hairspray and it needs a good cleanse) and your hair should feel less dry as a result.
After that, don't wash your hair every day. Unless you sweat a lot or something, very few people really need to wash their hair everyday, and most who say they need to because of oil often don't realize their hair is super oily because they wash it so often. Your body adjusts. I wash it maybe 3 times a week at most, and that's only in the summer when I'm prone to sweat more.
I also have thick hair so a regular conditioner does not work. I only use deep conditioning treatments now since it's winter and I only need to wash my hair 1-2 times a week. I have a preference to the Shea Moisture line and this conditioner I've recently used up. I need to invest in another tub.

I have stretchmarks in the following places:
underarms/armpits
sides of boobs
hips and butt
top of my thighs
behind my knees
Literally the only places I don't have stretchmarks where you'd typically get them are on my actual stomach and on top of my boobs. When I was a preteen/teen my dad got really sick, I became a depressed hermit neet weeb nerd and I ballooned up to 185 at 5'2" in just a couple of years. I took control of myself in my later teens and made it down to 110-120 and started to wear make-up and better clothing, however I was still very ashamed of my stretchmarks, although they had faded considerably at that point. Also my boobies totally deflated which was depressing too. I refused to wear anything sleeveless and wouldn't dare wear a skirt without stockings. I constantly wore jackets to cover my breasts because I was very insecure about them. In retrospect, I had wasted a ton of my youth being depressed and ashamed about honestly uncontrollable details of my body even though I should have been proud of my weight loss. In my early twenties, I finally found the courage to– oh my god!!– wear a sleeveless dress, and I felt so great when an attractive guy had hit on me the same day. It sounds so silly, but from that day forward I felt so confident and proud I completely stopped wearing jackets, freely wore shorts and skirts and invested in better-fitting bras to support what was left of the girls. I got over my fear of the gym and started working out a lot as well. An awesome guy was attracted to me and my quirks and my confidence and all of my little flaws I used to be so scared about and three years later I'm engaged and over the moon! lol.
basically tl;dr idk, your post made me feel like I was reading something a younger me would have wrote. If I had any advice for younger me, it would be to try to let go feeling depressed of things that you don't necessarily have control over eg some stretchmarks and boobs, and start investing your time and emotions in other parts of yourself that you DO have control over. You will feel much better for it. the end

I wish I could just tear my face off, it's so fucking saggy and asymmetrical that there's no single thing I could do to fix it. I'm in my mid twenties and age is hitting me like a truck and I'm still battling acne, but the structure is a mess. Terrible lopsided nose that's growing bulbous, overbite, snaggletooth, yellow teeth, stupid ears, jowls, asymmetrical small eyes, acne scars, huge dark circles that dent inwards etc. If I'm this ugly now in my "prime" then how bad will I look at 40?
I've learnt that just spending less time alone or looking in mirrors helps me forget though, and that ugly people still get by if they smile enough and stay clean, but seeing cute girls online makes me so sad. I was so depressed when I was younger because I had enough free time to really obsess over it, but the real kicker is that I used to have such youthful skin but I still hated myself at the time because of the overall structure.
I struggle with dysmorphia with my body, I always feel fat and I have recently gained weight, but normally I can reassure myself with measurements that I am still objectively slim even if I'm built like a rectangular little boy with a saggy ass. Unfortunately my family has a history of genetic problems like arthritis, digestive issues and the propensity to just become obese in middle age.

I just feel like I'm not pretty enough to be feminine, but dressing androgynously makes me look like an old man with pear shaped body. I think that's what earns me dirty looks or possibly contributed to how oddly peers treat me, but maybe I'm just overacting..
It feels so unfortunate. I have such a masculine face with ogre-like features, small boobs, and i balloon out beyond my waistline. I'm like both ham planet and thin if you split me across the waist. I feel like I don't even look human sometimes and knowing that women are expected to look nice and seeing girls ranging from average to goddess all the time makes me feel kind of upset.
If I were a guy I probably wouldn't feel so disgusting since at least people could still see me as human for something like my personality or skills, but no one would honestly go out of their way to get to know a girl if they couldn't catch their eye in a positive way.

>>181376I am familiar with your pain anon.
Take it from me. Invest in your face. Overall it is worth it and makes you feel so much better about each day.
What I recommend:
Get some good dental work done first, that makes a huge difference in terms of not only pretty teeth but also a better face shape foundation. It might cost a lot, maybe even close to 10k (average seems to be about 5-6k), but IT IS SO WORTH IT and you can always pay it off slowly.
Save up/start researching for a rhinoplasty next, and in the meantime or after book some skin treatments to treat scars or pores if you really feel they are that bad. If you improve your diet and wear sunscreen, that can help a lot though with scars.
You could even entertain the idea of a small chin implant to reduce the look of jowls or get some lipo in the cheeks. I have also heard about buccal fat pad removal but haven't seen any convincing pictures yet from western surgeons.
One last thing you could consider is a minor facial fat transfer to add some youth back to your face if you are feeling like you have an old face at a young age. It costs a couple thousand but is permanent, there is zero risk of being allergic, and you don't have to get it topped up like filler.
It may seem like a lot, but at least just fixing your teeth and nose can make you feel so so much better about yourself. I don't usually recommend plastic surgery to people but as a fellow old-face at a young age (and boy did it get bad as my 30s drew near), it changed my life and I feel about 50% better about myself, which is what I expected since I am pretty self-loathing. (The rest is just improving my shit personality if it is even possible at this point. Physically I feel much better.)
It is important that no matter how you hate how you look, at least take care of yourself. Eat well, get enough sleep, do some exercise, keep your brain active with learning something/hobbies, drink enough water. Then once you feel more beautiful, you will have a great body and wonderful health to enjoy it with.

Anon said they were an adult and also had many significant problems with their teeth (overbite, snaggletooth, yellow teeth- I forgot to mention look into whitening too). Adult dental work is very different than that for a child and all of those things would be able to be fixed with the right work as an ADULT. Plus modern orthodontist work has improved a ton in recent times. So move along since you have no idea what you are talking about and enjoy your tmj.

>>181728Have you tried getting more flattering frames, learning how to apply makeup and losing weight?
I'm the opposite of you, I used to be a hideous little monkey (unusually hairy for a child, perpetually sunburnt and therefore vaguely middle eastern-looking even though I'm a
very light skinned western european, with a visibly broken nose, always dressed in tattered, baggy boys' hand-me-downs… I've even posted a picture here once), people always ignored me as a kid because I wasn't as cute as most of my friends, I was bullied throughout most of primary school etc. I ended up growing into a relatively pleasant-looking person and I'd say 60% of it was learning which colours and cuts suit my face and body and learning to take better care of myself. I'm also getting a nose job in a few months.
For most people not blessed with a godlike bone structure it can take as little as a flattering haircut to get them from dumpy to attractive. As long as you work with your features and not against them I'm sure you can turn your life around easily. Not saying you'll be Gisele Bundchen-tier or anything, but you'll definitely improve.
Of course, it's impossible to do it overnight and you'll waste a lot of money trying to find the right products, tailor your routine to fit your lifestyle, discover your personal style, find, buy and afford the right clothing, alter some clothing to fit you better… But it can be done.

uh I've got weight issues that I've been trying to get under control for several years (given a lot of prednisone for severe asthma when I was a kid and it fucked me up) but I feel like it's happening too slowly. aside from that my boobs are pretty small and saggy, like in between an A/B cup, but my ass is muscly/fat so I look really disproportionate from the side. I'm short, 5'2, but I don't mind the height. just wish I looked a little more proportioned. muscle mass is thickest in my lower body, so killer calves, thick thighs, etc but it just makes me look even weirder I think lol.
also, like a few other anons, my feet are huge. I'm a size 10-10.5. my entire family has flat feet, so I guess that's where I get it from. idk. I want to look androgynous ultimately, but that's just not attainable for me. I just look like the opposite of skipping leg day.

I'm tall, fit, and i have an hourglass shape which is fantastic in theory, but i also happen to have incredibly short dwarf-tier legs so i always look fatter and shorter that what i actually am.
Breasts grew incredibly fast at a very young age without me noticing and they sagged quite a bit because i was too young to understand i needed bras, and i hate them now. I scar very badly so i don't consider a breast lift too much of an option, because replacing a issue with another issue seems stupid.
Slight violin hips, they do bother me when i wear tight stuff, but since it's very slight it can be concealed quite easily, but still.
Thanks to my mediterranian genes i am hairy as fuck everywhere and i have a "happy trail", a slight mustache and slighlt unibrow that i need to keep in constant check. They did gave me fantastic eyebrows and hair but the cons suck ass.
I have a lot of acne scarring thanks to me picking a lot at my skin. It's especially bad on my legs and face.

Which is pretty close to being underweight. But my boobs were small and my stomach not flat lol.

i've had severe body dysmorphia for the entire adolescent/ adult half of my life and i don't even trust myself to talk about what i look like because there are parts of my body i love and parts that i hate but some days every part of my body morphs into something i hate and i can't win with myself. wish i could appreciate myself more because i know that objectively i DO have good natural traits: a small waist proportionally no matter how much weight i gain or lose, a decently sized butt that i never lose either, essentially an hourglass figure, ringletty curls, a face that is unique in a good way. i'm down to my lowest weight since high school so i SHOULD feel way better about my appearance and sometimes I do which is a huge relief from the days where all i can focus on are my upper arms being way too big for my body no matter how much fucking weight i lose, birthing hips that make some clothes that should fit me everywhere else impossible, and shitty posture that makes my back look bigger. also a case of babyface, which my ED history makes worse by causing my face to puff and ruins my decent cheekbone/ face structure with marshmallow ass bulimia cheeks and a soft jaw. i have a witch nose from the side so i'm terrified of profile view candids that don't even look like me, and i hate that i can't pull off what skinny-everywhere girls can clothing wise because if i wear something that doesn't cinch at the waist and shows my arms or thighs, i instantly gain like 20 fucking pounds in photos.
also HATE that i'm so short, because all i do is look in the mirror and posture myself upwards and lament at the fact that if i had actually grown taller past fucking middle school all my features would be stretched upwards and much more flattering. everyone loves an hourglass figure but a squashed hourglass is shit tier
also i'm sure this is the BDD talking but i've never been larger than a size medium, and i'm like xs/small now in most brands, yet every time i see myself in a shopping mall mirror or next to my slim friends i look so fucking goddamn medium
and more than anything else that i hate about myself physically i wish there were something i could do about my arms, but realistically they'll be this way forever, my mom is extremely in shape for her age and even hers are big for her body so it's kind of a 'muh genetics' fucky situation. i know spot training doesn't rly exist but i do a lot of small weights and tricep dips, but even then it's kinda futile imo because my arms are big in the sense of stubborn fat being stored there AND naturally being muscular there, so even now that i've lost weight it's just loose flab and muscle. seriously if anyone else has the lunchlady arms curse any tips would be immensely appreciated
anyway i'm glad this thread exists i need somewhere to vent and word vomit cause i've had a shitty week

I swim a lot and where I live swimming is considered an old people hobby, so the pool is a regular haunt for middle-aged and elderly dudes (and ladies).
Here's a list of what they usually pay attention to:
1) The game last night
2) General complaining
3) 'My son is a doctor!' 'Oh yeah? Well my son is a lawyer!'
4) Remembering the good old days
5) Aquarobics
6) Their spouses
7) Bitching about kids at the pool
8) Bitching about young women (see: kids) at the pool
9) Scratching their nuts underwater
10) Lunch

This thread is making me sad. I feel like an intruder here as a male.
You know what the difference between threads like this for males and females is?
In the male ones, they complain that they are virgins and alone, and will never find a partner (of course while not wanting to change themselves, or even leave their house to find someone).
In the female threads, women are also complaining about how shitty and ugly they feel, but there are so many posts including "bf think it's fine, still feel like shit", or other mentions of external positivity. You'd NEVER see that in a male thread, they are always about isolation. But for you it seems like your minds are telling you to be unhappy no matter what, even if you do have a caring partner.
I always thought you women had it easier in the way of love, but I guess life is shit no matter who you are.

I'll use the example of a man at my work that was pretty large and has something wrong with his face like a serious stroke or impact damage from the way half of it just seems to hang, one eye is always closed and his nose looks crushed. When I first met him he was fat and did that fat breathing thing, his hair was a shaggy mess and even though he was a hard worker I just generally didn't know where to look when he was around. I moved workplace but having recently come back to that site, he has lost a lot of weight to become an average healthy weight and has started keeping his hair tidy. At first he was still wearing his old baggy clothes and it looked weird but now he is dressing smarter too. I don't know if it's his weightloss but he is much more confident and says hello and chats to everyone.
I notice that everyone in work says hello to him now too, people stand and chat with him and offer to help him out with work. His face is exactly the same but it doesn't bother me anymore because he is just friendly and confident that it doesn't leave any awkward silences. I'm not going to lie and say I suddenly find him hot, but I would definitely hang out with him, and people here seem to like him. It's unfair that someone with a facial disfigurement needs to work 10x harder for the treatment that pretty people naturally get, but he's put in the work and done it anyway.
tl;dr stay well presented and put work into being friendly

I hate my body. I'm not going to explain every little thing I hate because I understand that disliking a few things about your looks is perfectly normal, but I absolutely hate my belly (it looks worse IRL than in the picture). I mean, I hate my Kiki forehead, slightly saggy big tits, my short height and tons of other details but I REALLY hate my belly because I used to be massive and now that I'm in the middle of my weight loss journey, my belly looks horrendous. It wiggles, is absolutely soft and I have tons of stretch marks all over it and others parts of my body. Pic not because I wanna self post because I really hope someone out there says they've seen someone with a belly like this that looks a lot better now. I've been hitting the gym, and eating properly, so I have hope. I hope my hope can come true though. I don't even need a perfect female six pack. I just want a normal belly.

I suck at budgeting too which makes figuring out what to eat worse. even to work out at home i dont know what exercises to do, how many reps or how long. instead i am just depressed and eat more because i don't appreciate my body so healthy eating feels like it makes no difference, so i might as well enjoy some junk.

Eat more lean protein, veggies, nuts (small amounts because they're highly caloric), reduce your dairy intake and avoid non complex carbs (white bread, pasta, etc. Focus on a nice piece of fruit sometimes, etc). Try different spices and natural teas. Avoid sugar and soda. You know, the common sense diet.
It's pretty easy to lose weight in the beginning. You can also start tracking your calories in the first weeks, at least to get the swing of things.
After you lose a bit of weight, try doing some light to moderate exercise. I said to focus on your diet first because sometimes people try to do everything at once when they start, fail and lose motivation completely. Anyway, look for videos on YouTube. Team body project and my fitness blender have tons of videos you can do at home, for example.
You do NOT need to do exercise to lose weight, especially in the beginning, BUT if possible, exercise. It will make you feel better, give you a boost, burn extra calories, reduce your chances of getting super flabby, etc etc etc.
Read the Diet thread we have here, and the fitness thread if it interests you. Both have helped me a lot.
I do understand how you feel and I thought I'd never lose weight. I felt miserable. Now I'm in the middle of my weight loss journey (I've lost around 26lbs and want to lose more 20lbs) and I can fucking guarantee you anyone can do it as long as they have a tiny bit of motivation. We see cows complaining about this and that to avoid losing weight. Don't be like them. I promise you that if you follow my suggestion, you'll lose weight, and if you don't,
maybe you have PCOS or some other problem, but keep in mind tons of people use that as excuse even without a diagnosis. So diet and eat better for a couple months and track your results before even thinking that you're a victim of a health problem that will stop you from losing weight.
I understand depression and i understand hating your body. Things won't magically improve once you lose the weight but it's gonna be SO WORTH IT. I still don't love myself and I need to work on that but just waking up knowing I am weighing less and looking/feeling a bit better makes me feel less miserable.
Consistency is also an important key – if you fuck up and binge, don't let it ruin everything. Tomorrow will be a new day, that's what I always tell myself when I fail or feel less motivated.
Sorry for the long post, I just want to help. Your post could've been written by me just 3 months ago so I understand.

i now have a full meal plan and exercise plan that i need to keep to. wish me luck! i'm starting small (40min jogging per day) and cutting out the sweets over the course of the next 2 weeks, but i should be able to do this.

Nobody can make veggies taste good if you still think greens taste yucky. You don't need to be a Michelin star chef to grill some chicken breast and steam some broccoli and carrots.

No. 183791
>>183789You're the one who sounds ridiculous.
You don't have to use vegetables as base, you could use grains or pasta. Also if tomatoes and salad tasted bitter and watery, either you're not used to them and don't like them (in which case don't put them in salad) or they were too old or just not good, try to get in-season fresh produce and learn how to select the best.
Also if it was bitter then your seasoning was not good (unless you're talking about the vegetables, in which case see above). Learn what kind of seasoning you like. Pre-made sauce might also be the issue, either try other brands or make your own, there's lots of recipes out there.
And stop acting like you're above looking for recipes for salad. Looking up some salad ideas will either give you something to follow or at least some ideas for what you might like.
"Learn" is a big word but just try to find some recipes that seem appetizing and follow them and then we'll talk.

>>183790And of course you refuse to believe me when I say my diet doesn't in fact consist of burgers and fries.

>>183791>Also if tomatoes and salad tasted bitter and wateryWhat?
>You don't have to use vegetables as baseThat takes the whole point of salads away. Yeah you could have chicken and bacon and pasta and mayo and whatnot in your "salad" but then it'd be better to use those ingredients for something else. Like, are green salads destined to taste bad? I just don't see what I could've further changed after using what's probably the most foolproof method. And you refuse to elaborate on that part as well.

Yesterday I had celery stir fried with marinaded tofu, green beans, sliced unseasoned beef and white rice. Before sleep I had an orange. I can't remember the rest of the week but it's very similar and my diet is currently very bland and unvaried. Since at the moment I usually just go to my grandma's place for food since she has a lot of veges growing in her garden and right now I'm living in close proximity to her. The only major thing I can think of contributing to my weight would be the oil used when cooking.

>That takes the whole point of salads away.The salad doesn't have to be entirely vegetables, your base can be grains. The quantity will be lesser because it will be more filling than lettuce or baby spinach or whatever greens you could use.
>you could have chicken and bacon and pasta and mayo Or grains, vegetables you like, and a nice dressing. You know, just like I suggested.
>then it'd be better to use those ingredients for something elseSo basically, because carrots can be used for carrot cake, you should never eat them another way? Just because an ingredient can be enjoyed in different ways does not mean you should only go for the most savoury options even if they're not the healthiest ones.
>Like, are green salads destined to taste bad?It's a matter of taste, maybe you just don't like them. I don't know how many varieties you've tried, maybe you've tasted enough of good quality to know you don't like them, I'm not going to convince you they're great when you could be such a picky eater you won't like them anyways.

>I just don't see what I could've further changed But I told you that. Use better ingredients. Don't use greens if you don't like them. Make your own dressing. Find recipes that seem more appetizing for you.

Add in leftovers from the night before (potatoes, pasta, rice). Even apples and grapes are weirdly nice in salads.
As for dressing, I just put in a dash of soy sauce, lemon juice or oil. Don't use creamy or vinegar-based dressings, all they do is cover up the naturally beautiful taste of the veggies and teach your tastebuds to crave the wrong things. As is probably obvious, I love crunchy, vinegary salads but you might like softer foods (like tomatoes).
Find your favourite veggie and work from there. Google "Salad recipe with ____" to find ideas. Add cheese, olives, oil and sundried tomatoes to make a Mediterranean salad. Add soy sauce, bean sprouts and cabbage to make an Asian salad. Make a salad completely out of beans (kidney beans, butter beans, black beans, chickpeas…).

This is an amazing achievement in the field of energy, since we have this far assumed a lossless conversion is rather impossible, let alone creation of new energy aka a lossless conversion with a net gain.
When she gets back to me with her diet, I can reproduce it and go claim my Nobel on "Beating the dissipative system with human thermodynamics through optimal processing of quantum biology and quantum coherence at zero energy cost"
I'm waiting for you, Fatty-chan. Come at me over here.

I don't know if I should post this here or in the diet thread, but whatever.
I have a flabby, bloated gut. I've always had a bloated gut, even when I was very small. Sometimes it looks kinda flabby but manageable, other times it looks like I'm in my second trimester. I'm jealous of people with flat stomachs who get it only by dieting, I've dieted but all it does is make me lose weight. I used to be underweight and rail thin as a kid and I still had a beer gut. When I lose weight, I lose weight from all other areas except my stomach.
I've done exercises before to no avail, and every single time I try something new someone is there to tell me it's wrong and useless and I should be doing that other thing instead.
Help, I just want a flat stomach.
I'm 5'3, around ~100lbs and do bodyweight exercises 4 times a week (can't afford a gym). I also go swimming every now and then.
I don't drink carbonated drinks and the only sugar I have is one mug of Ovaltine per day, a small piece of dark chocolate after a meal or the odd chocolate bar once in a blue moon. The only time my stomach is remotely flat is after a bout of explosive diarrhoea. Sorry for the TMI.

>>184448try drinking more water and lowering your carb intake. try to eat between 50~100g a day.
you'll lose water weight and the bloat and some fat.
then doing some core exercises will strengthen your center and help keep that area looking tighter. keeping a good posture can also help.
too bad spot reduction isn't real. it would be so much easier to do shit.

>>184448Are your bowel movements regular? Also, having a food intolerance can cause bloating. Try going to a doctor and see if they can help.
You can also try reducing carbs like that one anon said. Some people are carb sensitive.

>>184593Not at all, sometimes I have daily bowel movements for a short period of time and after that I can go days without doing a poo. After maybe two or three weeks I'll have cramps and diarrhoea and my magic belly will suddenly deflate. I've tried taking laxatives, even had a colonoscopy (never again, god) and everything turned out OK but the laxatives sometimes work sometimes don't.
I've noticed drinking tea helps, but I can't drink it too much due to caffeine jitters.

I get people hitting on me a lot, but I'm kind of insecure about my waist and my skin. Acne runs in the family well into adulthood, and I keep on top of it, but even when I'm not getting much in the way of acne if at all, I'm critical of my skin.
I've also got a big Italian nose, but lucky enough it's symmetrical and straight, but all of my features on my face are "large" so I usually like them, but sometimes I look in the mirror and feel like a weirdo.
I'm about a 31-25.5-35.5 and 5'6" and I used to be insecure about my boobs too, now idc too much. I'm more ehh about my waist, but it's not possible to get it any smaller at my weight/height because I'm really lightweight and basically there little to no padding on my stomach.
I'm just trying to accept my waist and skin once and for all. I'm not treating my body like shit, people think I'm cute/hot, especially my bf, I've never had a problem with being "objectively attractive" unless the tits or nose count. It's just me.

took a picture of myself and now my day is ruined. it's been a while since i did that and i didn't realize how haggardly i look now. my skin looks dull and dry. my hair is friend. my face is asymmetrical as fuck - especially my nose. and my eyes literally look dead and i'm worried i may have exotropia now. i blame it all on being a neet. i feel like a shell of what i once was and you can tell just by looking at me how miserable i am.

>>184714I get how you feel. Idk if this is good advice but most people that whip out a phone and randomly take a pic look fucked. Whatever comes of it looks fucked and dead-eyed / confused, perhaps like you mean, too. Taking selfies is a challenge and art form now and other people usually only share the best of the best and the most polished! Also, it sounds like your self-image is down in the dumps and then many ppl perceive themselves as hideous subjectively when they're much nicer and more decent-looking than they know.
Not to hijack your post but in the last one and a half year of having an ig, I finally learnt how to take nice, flattering selfies. If I whip out my phone during every day life and just hold it into my face, then I look like a zombie though (even tho I don't in real-life) and have similar bad feelings about myself. And I know for a fact most people around me are also shocked at their selfies lol

>>184694You have every right to feel frustrated and down and these feelings are valid because the recovery must be really tough and dragging. Sounds like the people around you want to be positive about it but you still have to deal with negative feelings.
Reclaiming your body will take time yes and it's just hard when you have to pause feeling at home and at peace with your body and putting your energy into working your body because all that is somehow mostly delayed into some far away point in the future. My tooscents and I'm wishing you a good recovery and that the time goes by swiftly filled with great things!

>>184725This, I don't know anyone who thinks pictures are true to life. I mean obviously there's a lot of resemblance since it's the same person and all, but I look so different from different angles and in different lighting that it just can't compare to real life. I'm NC10-15 and always (ALWAYS) end up looking sallow and brown in my passport pictures due to shitty white balance and hack photographers. It's so bad that my boyfriend started calling me 'daughter of Israel' when he saw the first set of photos.
It also depends on the lens you use, I know photographers who keep using shitty wide-angle lenses for portraits and people always come out with square Lego heads and tiny little facial features squished in the middle of the face.
Wall-mounted mirrors and good lighting are the only ways to know what you look like. Obviously the image is flipped, but it's as close as it gets.

>>184919I agree.
>>184748Amazing end phrase right there. Sounds like you're being realistic but maybe your head is too self-critical still and that's why you feel this way? But it happens that one dislikes perceived flaws so idk.
Personally, I like smaller eyes. I often find them more proportionate and elegant. Some of the faces I find most beautiful have relatively small eyes.

>>184936Yeah, I'm not really sure. It doesn't really help that my view of myself changes every so often, especially with my appearance. Today I think I look pretty freaking cute, but last week I thought I looked like a monster. With asymmetry, I probably have a normal amount like everyone else, but because I scrutinize my face so much (especially when I'm blazed as fuck), I feel like my mind tricks me into seeing things that don't exist to an extreme level. As long as guys and girls think I'm pretty, that's good enough for me.
Haha thanks, anon! Makes me feel better about my smaller eyes.
