This is again for everyone. I used to have a love hate relationship with my body and after giving birth I developed self image issues. Now I take sexy pics and focus on the positives and the effects on my mind and body are amazing. What do you do to feel better about you |

On a previous profile my tagline was "I'm the invisible Man" and that applied as much to the real world as it did to the world of fab.
I always had low self esteem and while part of me wanted to be visible I was more comfortable being invisible.
Age and life experience in the last few years have improved that and while my profile probably has more pics than the average male profile that's because I like the challenge of making people smile but I also enjoy their response. |

You look fantastic.
I think a lot of people on here has body issues. I know I do. I have gained some due to losing a lot of weight and meeting some genuine people who make me realise I'm not as big as I think. But I'll continue on my weight loss and hopefully get more confident in myself and my body image as time goes on. |

We all here no matter how well we present ourselves have some body issues. It is only natural and human to have these thoughts. I unashamedly post photos of myself wearing sexy lingerie because it makes me feel good . Its not about how many fabs I recieve but its how dressing like this daily makes me feel confident as a woman. Also I find by surrounding myself here with good people and not those whose behaviour will chip away at my confidence is possibly even more important for me. It is therefore important to choose wisely those you engage with online and avoid those who prey on your insecurities.
This applies to both male and female equally. |

From my own experience, external changes don't cause internal changes... If you want to feel differently about yourself you have to work on changing your thoughts, not your body. Confidence doesn't naturally come with a specific look! |

I couldn't have put it better myself. That's how I feel when posting pics. It's not about seeking attention. Those who know me in the forums know that's not who I am.
It's about feeling good within myself and lessening my insecurities.
Don't ever be ashamed of posting those amazing photos but equally don't ever be ashamed of having style and class and being able to hold your head up high when others don't.

Well said and so true. And surrounding yourself with decent people and ignoring those who like to prey on peoples vulnerabilities is so important as well. And there are a lot on here who get a cheap thrill by doing that. I'm extremely lucky to have found some fantastic friends on here who I consider to be some of my true friends in real life as well.  . |

And it goes without saying that those true friends are much wealthier having you as a friend also.
Anyone who thinks it's fun to prey on insecurities or vulnerabilities here or elsewhere are not people I'd ever want to be associated with. |

I train to deal with stress but it has the added benefit of helping to build muscle and shape my body. I also like to eat and ham out so some days I vary between thinking that I’m in decent shape or have a fat day.
The best thing for me is to have a good session with loud music and then I’m back to my happy place |

There's always a balance to be had between being productive, exercise and vegetating. For me, it's been a difficult road replacing a 20 yr amateur sport career. No longer do I have to spend 15+ hrs a week, but replacing this with something healthy that allows me to keep healthy has been really hard. One thing I have learned is that alcohol is just not an answer. |

Look after myself. Do what makes me happy. Get loads of sexy tatts. Buy lingerie. Go to gym and lift heavy weights.
I had breast cancer and lord knows life is too short to give a toss about shit that doesnt matter.

I think we accept ourselves in a certain age. Before I've turned 40 I always been focused how I do look like and what people will say. We all have bigger or small problems but working hard to achieve the goal not for others just for your own is a huge success.
I had been sick a long time since my daughter was born. Over 7 years ago I've decided to go on ketogenic diet. It was my last chance. First few weeks was a nightmare: busy with child, working full time (had own business), then looking after my hubby when he got cancer but I found the motivation. I knew I must be stronger than ever. Keto helped me to be in form, have built stronger immune system and to be honest I didn't have time to go to the gym. I have used to walk with our dog and my daughter a lot, just for my mental health. Parents who have children whom need a special care know its not easy to find a free time to ourselves.
I really do not care what people think about my look, make up or not, sexy outfit or just casual...
Who cares? Life is too short to think about it

------------------
- I love exercise and use weight training as a meditation if that makes sense to anybody 
_ Visualisation (of being healthy & strong...it works)
- Gratitude
- Cheesy music
- 80's films
- Love complimenting others
("A few words of encouragement can set somebody up for life")
- No tv, news or radio
Great thread Op as I once had zero confidence and wasn't even confident enough to ask anyone to my Debs but a wild woman or 3 lead me astray
...and have been eternally grateful ever since
Have a great day!

We all have our own issues with ourselves..
I never wore a figure hugging dress till my 40s. Hated my body all my life.. I was never small size 12-14 now a 16. I was wrapping shirts and sweaters around my waist half my life..thinking its gonna hide my bum..)
But something changed in my 40s. And this site and the scene..especially tapping into my dominant side helped a lot with finding my confidence...
Now I concentrate on what I love about my body and myself rather than what I dont.. |
