Three things about your appearance what would they be??

I would have white perfect teeth - mine are horrible! Bad colour and a gummy smile.

I'd have skin that was naturally a bit tanned and didn't burn. I'm blue-white and burn really easily.

I'd be a size 10 - technically this is achievable if I could (a) stop eating crap and (b) do some exercise!!

I would have no eye bags, thicker hair, and a more symmetrical face....I'm totally wonky.

Perfect teeth......or, if that's too much to ask, then nice teeth would do!

I’d be a curvy, hourglass size 8.

I’d have white teeth, with gums that are not rapidly receding.

Sort out the horrid varicose, and broken veins and capillaries that are strewn all over my legs.

i don't think this is helpful or should be encouraged 🤷‍♀️

Fatter face
Straight perfect teeth, mine a great teeth but not straight! I threw away my brace at 15 and have regretted since
Bigger more almond shaped eyes, mine are little black piggy eyes.

My teeth are good - I’ve a nice smile, so I’m told.

My body’s had it. Truly, I’m even embarrassed to let DH see me in the buff. So, I’d like my 45 yr old body back, at 56.
I like my hair. Long and loads of it.
My colouring is deathly pale so, I wish I wasn’t so pasty. I come out in a rash when the sun comes out.

1-Beautiful skin top to toe, not only on my face but on my legs, arms, elbows, knees too.
2-Reverse the thinning hair and have voluminous shiny hair.
3-Slim down, especially on my round tummy.

My wish list :
Smaller nose
Perfect teeth
And bigger rounder boobies!

Timefortea99 · 07/05/2018 22:40

Smaller breasts.

Thinner thighs.

Better skin on body. I have very good facial skin but the rest of me is pale/red/corn beef/thread veins in appearance. I would love to have smooth skin with an even tone.

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 07/05/2018 23:39

One more thing: I’d like a longer neck to make me look elegant and swanlike.

Weight
Weight
Weight

I was a slim size 8/10 throughout my 20s and 30s, even having babies didn't change my figure much, then bam, 40th birthday passes and the weight creeps on...and on...and on.... I mostly have myself to blame through eating sugary snacks during 3am feeds and hobnobs for breakfast but still, I feel like every packet of crisps adds a full pound of fat at the moment!!!!

PlaymobilPirate · 07/05/2018 23:42

My feet (and legs - can I be greedy)

I have lymphedema and they swell horribly. Buying shoes is a nightmare

YellowArdvark · 08/05/2018 07:28

I would have had a really long list a few years ago, but only two now - weight and teeth. But I know that both are technically in my control.

AuntyJackiesBrothersSistersBoy · 08/05/2018 07:47

We’re so hard on ourselves, aren’t we? I never expected, at 56, to still feel bad/ashamed of my body.
