How "Comfortable" Are You In Your Own Skin?

Are you comfortable with the way that you look? Are there a lot of things that you would like to change about the way you look? Do you obsess over certain body parts? Are you content with the body that you have? Are you self concious about the way that you look?

most of the time i'm not comfortable with the way i look.. and i need to lose weight so that i could wear clothes easily with not having hard time looking for the right size.. and not to get tired easily.. and to believe my boyfriend whenever he says i'm pretty and sexy. lol.

I hadn't been until I discovered how easy it is to talk freely on a computer. A year of chatting with folks from all walks of life has allowed me to become very open and it's worked it's way into my everyday life as well. I've also found that I can enter easily into conversations with just about everyone I meet on the street. This from someone who was once so shy I never spoke a word to anyone.

wow! i can't imagine just how horrible that must have been for you (not being able to talk to someone freely face to face). but i'm so glad to hear that you are comfortable and confident enough now to be able to openly speak to people now.

I am not comfortable with the way I look, I need too lose some weight. and get 2 of my teeth fix. right in the front I have two cavietys on my front teeth. I do plan on getting them fix. bad teeth can mess up a smile, and your appearance. I have two scar at the top of my head, I always try to hid them with my bangs.

I'm sorry that you aren't comfortable with your looks. Hopefully you're able to make the changes that will help you to feel better about yourself.

At one point and time in my life I was very unhappy and uncomfortable with self... One thing I realized in order for me to feel good about me, not just the clothing, I had to do something about it...I started working out, eating right, broadning my wardrobe with colors and styles. I would like to change some minor things about myself, the main one is toning a bit more. I'm very self concious when it comes to my clothing, my attire for a event, being over or underdressed (ie casual, regular wear, grown & sexy etc..) I would like a flat stomach, but that won't happen..lol... My stomach is not big like noticeable, just a very small pouch below my navel that probably will never go away. It's possible it was from chilbirth..who knows... Good topic lady

my stomach is definately my main source of being uncomfortable. ever since i had my son, i can't stand it (i've got a pouch there too), but my bf seems to love it (i think that he may be crazy - lol!) but no matter how many crunches i do, i can't get rid of it, so i guess i'll just have to get used to it. btw... thanks.

yes am very comfortable with my skin,that means i am very happy to be in the way i look.i personally believe in a good saying that ''i am as good as anybody,beter than many,'' this saying enables one to be proud of oneself

back then, i am not comfortable with my skin. my skin color is brown since i am asian and i always envy women who have white complexion. so, i always tried to buy whitening stuffs. i also wished to have my nose lifted. haha. but that was be before i met my boyfriend. my boyfriend helped me build my self confidence. he made me feel secured that any way, i will still be pretty for him. since then, i realized that i should love myself more for who i am and not get envious on what other people have.

i'm glad that you are feeling better about yourself. I don't see why you would want to change your skin tone... the tanning industry is making millions of dollars supplying pale people with your color of skin. you should feel blessed.

It is an interesting question I know woman who are far more fit and attractive than I am, but I am comfortable with who I am, to the point that I accept myself and while I would like to lose weight because I don't want to carry the weight around, I can still be comfortable in my own body, and with who I am, so yes I am comfortable with in my own skin. And yes I would like to change things about my looks, but I don't let that stop me from being comfortable with myself.

it's a good thing that you feel that way because there are so many women out there that are dissatisfied with themselves.
