Thought it might be nice to have one of these for the new year?

It's good to feel good about yourself Wink

so, at the risk of this thread not taking off & being a bit sad complimenting myself alone, I like my legs and my height. When I was a teenager I thought I was bigger than I was, so bought stuff that was 2-3 sizes too big and wondered why it never fell right! Now I've found my size and am happy with it.

My eyes
My skin
My bust
My legs

(let's not mention my thin lips, rubbish hair, bunioned feet and lack of waist)

Ok got it Mitzy sorry, I have read the whole thread but just gone back to recap. You sound very positive.

AlisonWunderland · 08/01/2016 21:21

I like the fact I'm in reasonable nick health wise. All my bits and pieces might not look perfect, but they work ok!

I love my grey bobbed hair.
Woman serving me in a shop today said how lovely my hair looked, and had I just had it cut?
Since it was cut 3 weeks ago and not washed this morning either, I was dead chuffed

OublietteBravo · 08/01/2016 21:24

I'm pretty happy with my body at the moment (I got back into exercise about 7 months ago). I particularly like my flat stomach and my toned arms.

I also like my nails - they are strong and grow really quite long without breaking.

SurferJet · 08/01/2016 21:26

My big blue eyes, long dark hair, good figure, & I dress really well.

LemonSqueeze · 08/01/2016 21:32

Love my height (5'11).
Like my hair now I've grown it long again.
Like my eyes, nose and lips (doing well here! Grin).
I like my overall size (12). Any skinnier and I dont look well, any bigger and I start to look a bit chunky.

fastdaytears · 08/01/2016 21:40

Big but bouncy boobs, smallish waist, nice nails

BlueEyedWonder · 08/01/2016 21:43

I'm late 30s and finally feel comfortable in my skin.
I like being petite.
I like my shoulders.
I have good pert breasts
I have full lips and pretty eyes

Clarabumps · 08/01/2016 22:44

My height (5ft 10in). I'm finally embracing it after 20 years of hiding it.
I have full lips.
I like my eyes. Big and blue with black eyelashes.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 08/01/2016 23:14

Erm.

My legs go all the way up to my bum.

I have fantastic cheekbones.
Nice hands (though a bit dry and mangled and my nails don't grow much)
Lovely colour hair (I'm told by complete strangers) though it's dyed.

Decent boobs in a bra (bit saggy)

But the BEST thing about my body.?

I created DS and DD (ok I had help from DH but I did most of the work) Wink

Greengardenpixie · 09/01/2016 00:29

Legs, eyes and cheekbones :)

CantGetYouOutOfMyHead · 09/01/2016 00:38

I am 43, and 'gamine' (5'2", size 8) with a lovely smile, warm green eyes, gentle curves, sunny disposition, and glossy hair, and I have four beautiful smiling children so it absolutely kills me that my H left me for a pasty, plump woman who wears black

SecretWitch · 09/01/2016 00:49

My height, I'm tiny, less than 5 feet
Long, thick wild blonde hair
Green eyes
Big boobs
Excellent skin, no wrinkles at age 50
Nice hands and nails
Round bum

areyoubeingserviced · 09/01/2016 00:50

Love my full lips
Love my tiny waist and decent boobs
Love my slim ankles
Love my height 5ft 7-
Love my slightly slanted eyes

hiccupgirl · 09/01/2016 07:52

Hhhmmm had to think hard about this.

I'd go with long eyelashes, pert non wobbly bottom, even though could do with losing more weight, and long legs for my height (just under 5'4'') so standard length trousers fit perfectly.

BoboChic · 09/01/2016 08:03

Tall, but not too tall.
Slim.
Blonde.
Super easy figure to dress.

SquadGoals · 09/01/2016 08:57

I have great hair and can pretty much wear it at any length.

I like my height (5ft 9) and my long, slim legs.

People always comment on my unusual eye colour.

I have the basis of a good figure. Hourglass and in proportion. Once I lose a bit more weight, I will be even happier Grin

MizK · 09/01/2016 09:03

I look young for my age and I have a great rack 😉

omri · 09/01/2016 09:12

Love this thread!
I love my décolletage... Have been thinking about it recently funnily enough. I always wear high neck tops so why am I always covering up my favourite physical feature?!

Grapeeatingweirdo · 09/01/2016 09:22

I've come to terms with myself now that I'm almost 31. I spent my twenties anorexic and my whole life wishing I looked different. Now, I'm trying to like myself a lot more.

My likes: my hair, it's almost black and very thick and wavy (middle eastern ancestry), my eyes, they're sort of a dark brown. I'm also naturally small waisted and will notice that my waist stays the same size regardless of whether or not I put on a few pounds. If I lose weight, it goes from here first.

I also like my small hands and feet and how my hair looks on the rare occasion that I straighten it.

Conversely, I have huge thighs, some cellulite and way more body hair than is attractive (and I can't be fucked to wax). I also have a non existent décolletage area. A bras have room haha! Typical middle eastern pear shape, me.

Monica101 · 09/01/2016 10:35

Hmm difficult but I like.

Elegantly slim ankles and wrists.
A nose like Cheryl Cole.
Thick dark hair.
Strong, shiny nails.
Big, brown eyes.

friedafilmer · 09/01/2016 10:38

Height, legs, shoulder, skin.

InQuiteAChristmasPickle · 09/01/2016 10:54

Ooh, actually - I do like my teeth. They're nice and straight.

I have an hourglass figure although it's probably a bit blurred after Christmas and I could do to drop a few pounds.

blueshoes · 09/01/2016 12:16

Petite and slim with tiny ankles and wrists.
Poise of a dancer I wish
Waist to hip ratio that still screams sex to dh
Pretty young-looking heart shaped face with full lips that requires more work to maintain now I am 47
Flexible and tight twat

EricNorthmanSucks · 09/01/2016 15:19

I have Good Hair - thick, easy to style and not one grey.

I have a pretty face ( not the beauty I once was bit still attractive).

I have great teeth ( thank you braces and tooth whitening ).

I have a great chest.
