Body/Mental positivity ....

[ScarletM]

I have read a few posts here now and I see a lot of negativity about people with their bodies. I have good parts and its ok to be proud of them regardless of how I feel about my bad bits.

I'm only about 10% of the way to my total weight loss goal but I think that being positive and happy in what I am doing is key to my progress.

So on that note I thought I would start a thread and challenge everyone to think about the things they like about themselves- I think being positive in my mind was the start of making a commitment to myself to be more healthy. I am worth all the hard work I am putting in at the gym and the inner struggles I am having when saying no thank you to cake in the office!

So to start us all off the things I like about me are:

My eyes

My pink hair ! its just been dyed and I am LOVING being pink.

My positive attitude - I am embracing change and loving the challenge its presenting

My new found confidence - its early days but I do feel an improvement already even after the small improvements I have made in terms of taking control of habits.

what are yours...

This is a great thread. This group is supposed to be about moving beyond our body size and accepting who we are. Here are the things I like most about me. BTW I want pink hair lol

1- I am a good leader.

2- I am strong and determined

3- I have a great memory

4- I have nice hair even at 50

5- I like my skin

6- I am muscular so I look strong

7- I pretty much like everything about myself but that doesn't mean I can't tweak some things.
