I love the definition I can see in my thighs if I "flex." Can't wait for it to become even more defined.

1. My muscly legs. Having come to terms with the fact my legs will always be bulky, I've come to love the muscle definition I easily get when I train. Maybe not the most feminine of looks (traditionally speaking) but they keep me running!

2. My skin. Since being on Roaccutane and focusing on my eating to lose weight, my skin is looking better than it has in years!

3. My general shape. Once I lose the last few pounds, I'll have a nice (if a bit wide, damn those hips) hourglass figure going on.

Over to you!

Love this thread! I am grateful for:

* An hour glass figure (hey, it's a large glass, but steadily shrinking!)
* Soft, silky skin
* Naturally curly hair
* Green eyes
* Nice legs (Thanx Ga-Ga!!)
* The potential to be smokin' hot again one day soon!!!

Thanx for the great posts, and best wishes for continued success!!! :carrot::carrot:

My large pale eyes, my oval face and my long and proportionate neck, and also my shoulders.

I would make a good ship's figurehead or mermaid.

Alas, if only it stopped there ...

The thing is, knowing my good points has made me much smarter about choosing clothes & dressing. As any good chef on a cooking show knows, it's 95% about how it's presented on the plate.

i think i like my back, but i actually dont get to see it too often and in too bad of angles and lights so perhaps that is why. and some days, i love my face...and other days i think i look so awkward and ugly. and im sure i look relatively the same every day :P

Agreed! I like how my thigh muscles peek out as I walk. I also like my brown "exotic" eyes, my back dimples, thick hair, full lips, naturally straight teeth and cute toes.

- Somewhat of an hourglass figure
- Grey-blue eyes (now if only they weren't so tiny)
- Pretty good rack (I'm gonna miss the girls if they shrink during the weight loss)
- Tiny wrists and hands
- And, my skin isn't perfect, but I've never had an extreme, pizza-face style breakout before. Usually they're really small and don't happen too often.

I love how small my waist and ribcage are. I have a serious hourglass shape and it definitely gives me confidence to wear dresses and such.

I absolutely LOVE my breasts. Seriously they're like one of the only things I wouldn't change about myself (the others being my red hair, blue eyes and upper abs). I'm a size 32/34 E which trust me is difficult to shop for but I love them all the same. I just don't feel myself unless I'm showing them off and I'm gonna be honest I kinda adore the attention ;) Except when it's from the creepy 80 something year old guys ¬¬ But I suppose ya gotta take the bad with the good right? :)

Over to you!

Can I say that I'm sooooo envious of your #3? LOL. I would give my left arm (seriously) to have an hourglass shape. But I am a ruler. My husband is quick to point out that most models and some actresses are rulers too - i.e.: Cameron Diaz and Gwyneth Paltrow. So that has made me accept myself a little more, I guess.

Anyway, if I had to name three things:

1. My chest. For a woman on the cusp of 40 (this November!), my breasts are full and sit nicely on my chest wall. I also like the size - 33C. Enough said there, lol.

2. My abs. Considering I've given birth twice, I thought I'd never see my tummy flat again let alone toned with nice definition. Running has helped me to shed the loose skin from the pregnancies and eating cleanly too.

3. My skin. Since cutting sugar out, my skin which was always pretty decent (except for that time of the month) has gotten much smoother and clearer, if possible. In fact, people say to me all the time that I have a "young face" and can't believe how old I am.

P.S. I'm still jealous of your hourglass. :P

This is really tough because I'm very self-critical and when I first read the title I thought "nothing, I have a fat face, fat thighs ect." and then I thought, y'know what? No, I will force myself to answer this.

1) I love my brain, I'm kinda smart (sometimes).

2)My hips!! I can't decide if I'm an hour glass or a pear shape but either way now that my waist as shrunk, I'm very proud of them. I've always thought wide hips and a small waist was gorgeous on other girls, now I have them too :D

3) My clear skin. I rarely get spots. Even when I was a teenager I only ever got a few during TOM.

4) My 'man' hands. I first noticed I was losing weight around my wrists (weird but true) and consequently my hands began to look bigger and bonier. So now I brag to my boyfriend about my 'man' hands. They're still small but they look bigger than they ever have before and have become a kind of symbol to me that this diet and exercise is working.

Ah haha fitmom, no need to be jealous! I lost a few more inches, exclusively off my chest, and now I'm back to being a pear. Gah, it was nice while it lasted. My boyfriend too tried to console me, but he tried it with 'now you can run faster because your boobs won't get in the way', bless him!

Heleninedinburgh 07-11-2011 01:01 PM

fitmom: wow, I never knew that giving up sugar was so good for your skin, I might have to try it.

I like my eyes, and when I'm slimmer I like my face as I have good definition.
