Out of curiousity how do you guys feel about your bodies? Do you really feel overweight, or simply maintain that you are big-boned? (which is the case sometimes like with my hips) Are you comfortable with your body, or do you wish it was different? Do you have high self confidence, or do you let your looks drag your confidence down? Im just curious becasue some of you are all lets lose weight, and then i noticed a few asking you why you would want to change yourselves. So where do you stand?
I feel like i am both overweight and big-boned. It depends on the part of my body im looking at. My waist isnt as small as id like it, but even so i can feel my hip bones when i place my hands on my sides. It kinda sucks casue i know I'll never be much smaller than the size i am now. Im really not comfortable with my body, mostly becsue my older sisters are both tall, skinny and beautiful, all of which i feel im not. Sure im pretty when i clean myself up, do my hair and makeup but thats too much work to do every day. That, in turn drags my self conidence down when it comes to new people. Im fine when im with my friends because i knwo they see past my appearance. They also constantly disagree with me when i voice these thoughts. Okay i think im done..Yay my first thread here. Party.

Yay for first threads.
Anyway, it really just depends on who I'm with and how I'm feeling at the moment. Though I know (and always will know) that I'm much more then just "big boned". It's sad, but around two of my best friends I just fit the place of that cliche "fat friend with a good personality" that guys typically dread... Alot of the time I'm shy and self-concious, but I've also learned to just joke around about it and tease myself, and it makes me feel better about it, like I'm not trying to hide it anymore.

I am big boned, but I know that I am also overweight...I'm not going to make excuses for my weight. I'm not entirely comfortable with my body, but thankfully I have a hubby who loves me for me, inside AND out, and so I have a somewhat healthy self esteem, although there are days when I feel blah about my appearance, but knowing I always have the choice of doing something about it is comforting. There have been people who have said that I'd be pretty IF I just lost weight, well....for now, this is me, take it or leave it. When I am ready to lose weight I will, but I'm not going to knock myself for not being the weight I'd prefer being.

over all, i fell pretty good with my body. i was a bit overweight not too long ago and then i became really depressed and lost alot of weight, but now im thinner and, although im still really self concious, i feel better about my self. so i guess you could say that my depression helped me though you still wont find me wearing anything that might make me look thinner. but on my body type, i guess im big-boned around my hips/waist cause my older pants are only a little bit bigger than the ones i wear now sweatdrop .

My ideal weight would be anywhere from 200-230, but I'm wanting to at least get down to 250. I don't mind being big too much, especially if the people that are important to me are going to accept me for it. It's impossible for me to get below 180 and not have my bones showing because of my body frame. I want to remain a little pudgy, so I think anywhere below 250 would be nice, and 200-230 would be really nice. XD
Heck, I wouldn't mind being where I'm at right now if only the fat on me wasn't so lumpy and there weren't health issues tied to it. x.x
Other than my weight, I would like to not have such a big nose, and I wish my eyes were larger and didn't squint because of my fat cheeks when I laugh. D:

Well I am "big boned" also, but I am still trying to lose some weight just to feel healthier. I am okay with what I look like now, but I do feel the need to get healthy. heart
