I like my body, I work out to make it better but I am not seeking perfection because nobody is perfect. I accept who I am and work and improve what I have. Thanks for this post!

How can one love themselves if they have never been shown love nor have they been taught how to love. You can not love others until you know how to love yourself! I have that problem, at 37 I don't know how to love. I am confused on what is right and wrong and what is healthy in any relationship I get into. I question myself and my partners love everyday, "is this love? Is this healthy? My partner thinks so but myself....well, I need for him to show me EXTRA attention in order to fill this hole inside me, he on the other hand thinks thats not healthy. What it comes down to, I don't love myself, therefore I need others to show me love to fill that emptyness...that isn't healthy. Learning how to love myself regardless of what I may think others think of me is the most scariest and difficult task I have ever had to do. It tears me up inside trying to find something good about me but i'm trying and I will eventually love myself for who I am one day!!! Gee while writing this has giving me a little boost lol Thanks guys!!!!

That meant that for 2 years we were effectively not marketed to! We were good enough and had enough. It was culture shock to come back to the barrage. These are great tips.

It was culture shock to come back to the barrage.

I used to cover myself in makeup, wear fake tanning creams, and try to color over the red in my hair. i used to wear high heels a lot as well (nothing wrong with that , of course) But this summer i got to thinking, why am i doing all this? for me? for other people? my boyfriend hates makeup, heels, etc. hes all into natural look and the like... So i have given up makeup for the next month. just to see the real me, and get used to it. Im 18 for goodness sakes i might as well wait and wear it when i "need" it someday. And as for the heels, i got really wide feet, and i was cramming them into heels, and the things are so painful, i cant run in them. So i sold them Now i have $20 to do somethign a lot more fun, like buy a new dress, or go out to dinner :) I dont worry about my weight, either. I used to be sooo worried about finally hitting the 100 pounds mark, but after meeting my bf, he gave me a reality check- i was WAY to thin So now i am 30 pounds heavier and very happy :) i love this…. as women i think the one thing we really need to work on is loving ourselves the way we are :)

I should have read this one first (I am catching up on my reader!). I totally agree that supporting other women is one of the best ways we can make ourselves feel stronger and happier. So many women I know neglect themselves to take care of their families. I understand where they are coming from, but the greatest gift I could give my boys is a healthy, happy mother. Ha!
