Meh, I'm ok with it. I could us a little less break-out. 
And I really don't like the birthmark on the back of my neck.... because it looks like a hickey. lol I always feel weird around my grandma's friends because a year or two ago, one asked me why I was portraying my hickey.... and she wouldn't believe me.

Forgot to mention, my hair annoys the crap out of me, curly and frizzy as hell, but not in a nice way. So I striaghten it every single day, keeping it straight is the battle.
I had my fringe cut back in yesterday, which i was really excited about but today I'm wishing I hadn't. The layers on top are so short they are going to annoy the crap out of me keeping them straight and the fringe is going to be such a bad idea when I move to the hot country. Argh.
But for now, it actually looks pretty cool, so I might just let it grow out in the next few months.
I've been threatening to grow it out properly for ages, its so thick that its hard to let the layers get long enough to leave them curly.

Do I like my body?... Hmmm, well I guess you could say I was pretty attached to it! Badoom ching!
It's alright I guess, it gets me from A to B.. LOL!
Actually I quite like it now.. I have literally more than halved my weight and then some I think all in all I lost about 150 lbs.., I think I weigh in the region of 115lbs now, or maybe less.. when I was big I was really self concious about it, but now, it's take me as I am or leave me..
When I was a teen I grew very suddenly and very quickly and my skin couldn't keep up, so I have stretchmarks EVERYWHERE, which aren't exactly lovely.. I kinda look like a road map of a mountainous region.. But hey, there's nothing I can do about it, so why worry about them?!
In every life some rain must fall! I'd rather be considered beautiful on the inside, than be an exceptional beauty on the outside and shallow and mean charactered..
I do however LOVE my tattoo's.. Each and every one has been a present to myself when I have achieved a goal, the last one I promised to myself that when I lost all the weight I would have a tattoo on my belly, and that's exactly what I did..

Me, I'd like to be a couple inches taller, have a smaller nose, and lose about 40 lbs. I also wish I wasn't quite so goddamn hairy. But seeing as I can only change one of these, I think I'll focus on it.
Other than that... I'm fairly happy with myself. I've had girls tell me that they want my hair and eyelashes before, so I guess I'm not doing too bad.
I don't have an SO to gossip about, so I can't partake in that....

I wrote my response in a hurry lol.
My main concern right now, is my weight. So far I have lost 25 pounds. And i have 80-90 more to lose to get to my HEALTHY weight. I am 6' tall, and I LIKE that I am tall. That is one good feature. I hold my weight really well, nobody thinks I weigh as much as I do! Nobody lol.
I also hate..HATE my feet size! I wear size 11s, and I just hate it! I can hardly ever find my size in cute shoes.
And I hate my nose..and I really hope I don't lose weight and it looks the same.

I actually really like my body. I'll admit it.
I'm 5'2, weigh 100lbs... I have a year round tan (luxory of having olive skin!). I have waist-long curly dark brown hair which I'm debating between donating and keeping... I've always wanted to grow it out so it's hard to part with.
I used to be unhappy with my nose, but I had to have sinus surgery and when they fixed my deviated septum I ended up with a button-esque nose. It used to point down but it goes up a little now so I'm happy.
Also, I used to hate my cheeks (they were big), but as I've gotten older my face has thinned out.
*Shrugs* I've just never been one to really be concerned about it. I think I look better with barely any makeup, so it takes me about 20 minutes from start to finish to get ready in the morning. I'm pretty low maintenance, lol.

Ok... I'll share... there are things I don't like.... mostly stomach and upper arms and under my chin... and booblets. I want my booblets to stay THIS SIZE and the rest of me to be smallerish. *BLEH*
I think I need to drop maybe.... 20-40lbs. The number isn't so important as the fitness. I'm floppier and sqwooshier than I'd like to be.
MORE TIME OUT WITH THE DOGS!
Other than that... I like everything else. I'm a little short for my family but it makes me CUTE so MNYEH!

I used to be quite big, then I got sick and went down to skin and bone. Once I got healthy again, I was left with a very sensitve stomach and a strict diet, so I got to be a perfect weight, nice and slender. Over the last year, my stomach has gone back to normal and I can pretty much eat anything again...So I've gained a little back, just enough that things rub together again and when I run, certain parts applaud my effort! I'm not unhappy with my body, more with brain for not having the common sense to say "Back away from the pizza and ice cream"!
For the most part, yes. I like my height/weight/general features. Some days I'm particularly rough on myself, but for the most part I leave for work in the morning satisfied that I look pretty decent.
That said, in a perfect world, my boobs would expand a bit, the bump in my nose would flatten out, and my feet would shrink a few sizes. Minor, in the big picture though

I'm semi ok with it. I know I could/need to loose about 10 pounds. In a perfect world my boobs would be back where they where before children and my stomach would be flat. If I had the money I could change those things. But I don't so I don't worry about it.
In a dream world I would grow and be about 5 feet tall.

Blah... I'm "ok" with myself but not thrilled. I yearn for my "old" body where I was fit and healthy and well... sexy?! I need to start working out again. It doesn't make it easier that Kev is smaller than me. Hrmph. It's rarely an issue but there are times I'm insecure about it. I just need to stop eating everything in sight (used to have an enviable metabolism... where did that go?!) and get out more (I use the freaking freezing weather as my excuse not to start right now... good start eh?).
Overall though. I like me. Just need to be more fit, athletic, and healthy. So, uhh, yeah, starting right on that... tomorrow.

I hate my body, lol. My top half is ok I guess (somehow men seem to like my big boobs ), the bottom also, it's the middle that is disgusting. I have stretch marks also from two diets I did that worked very well but I ended up getting the weight back and more... and it's all localized in my belly and hips. Gross.
For the rest, my face is ok I guess, my hair is much better now that I changed shampoo (thanks for all the advice when I asked by the way), I used to be very self-conscious about my teeth and a mole I have on my cheek, but they don't bother me anymore.
