QOTD

Now that we've bashed FIs haha..

What is one thing you would change about yourself? Physically and personality wise? (I put both just so there's no confusion about what the question is referring to)

Happy hump day!

I wish I were skinnier and more confident about myself.  I also wish I weren't so hard on myself to feel the need to be skinnier all of the time.

I was thinking about that the other day. Why are we as a society so freaking weight obsessed? If you look back a few decades, sure - obesity rates weren't as high - but women could have some meat on 'em and still be considered attractive/healthy.

Physically, I would seriously give myself a breast reduction. 

Personality wise, I would be less uptight.

I hate my ears. They are small but they stick out ever so slightly. I also wish I was thinner. I'm not really overweight, but I have always wanted to have the stick thin body that some women have, but I'm just not built that way.

Personality wise, I too wish I wasn't so self concious about my weight (and overall appearance). And I also wish I was more patient and less up-tight. I am type A all the way.

[QUOTE]Physically: my feet! I HATE my feet! Why aren't there surgeries for that?? lol Personality: confidence as well. I have terrible confidence and I feel that it affects a lot of things I do... or could do. And I totally agree with you Lady. I think sometimes I blame my physical appearnce for my lack of confidence. But why? It's not necessary. And you know what I think?? I honestly think even if I lost the weight I wanted, that wouldn't solve my confidence issues. So that's pretty annoying.

Now ladies - remember when we made that post with all of our pictures in it - we're all beautiful women. Honestly. :o)

physically: i wish i was skinnier/smaller in general.....this is weird/nitpicky but i have a massively large ribcage so its hard to find dresses that fit me (i had to go two sizes up from my waistline size in my wedding dress to accomodate my ribcage!....)

personality: fiance thinks that this is something i am not aware of, but i am....i NEVER admit that i am wrong. ever. i love to argue things to death and i always think i am right.  i usually am....jkjk.  anyway, it makes sense that i am a lawyer, but i take things too far and am extremely stubborn.

brightfirefly - i don't think i was around for that!!! i so wish i was....there are tons of you who i imagine as looking like your avatars or a cat or something else that you have in your siggy!

If I had to change things about myself it would have to be that I take things way too seriously, so I would want to loosen up a bit. Also I would like to be skinner so I wouldn't have to worry about my weight all the time. And the final thing is getting a breast reduction as well.

I don't know if this is better classified as physical or personality, but I wish I was able to sing. I don't need to be amazing at it or anything, but I really like to sing but I know I'm really awful so I don't like subjecting ppl to it.

Other than that, I would say phsically that I wish I had a smaller chin. I think it sticks out funny. Personality, I wish I were more outgoing and less self-concious about what ppl think of me all the time.

Hahaha! Same. In fact I think if I ever meet any of you in person it will be extremely difficult to not call you by your screename LOL.

I think Bright is talking about the wedding dress thread. And she's right. I think it's something we all know but can't get over in our own minds. Hmm.. maybe we should work on that together. Have like a positive day or something lol

Physically-I'd like to lose some weight.  I've lost a bit since high school, but I feel that I should lose about 15 more pounds.  I also dislike my complexion, I have a lot of redness and scarring on my face from acne that just won't go away.

Personality- I worry WAY too much and feel guilty about everything.  "I'm sorry" comes out of my mouth and sometimes I don't even know why.  I can't even figure out how I got this way...I don't blame it on my upbringing or anyone in my life currently.  As young as the age of 8, I was worried about my parents finances (and there wasn't even anything to be worried about...)  Haha, sometimes I wish my brain would just take a break

hmacsine

Physically: my feet!

Personality: I'm a procrastinatinator and I have a quick temper. I'm learning to control my anger. (thanks to my babies)

dramaqueen91087

Physically: I wish I could lose some weight. Also, I have a lot of bizzare medical issues and I wish they would go away so I wouldn't be in pain all the time.

Personaility: I wish I would stand up for myself more. I give everyone so many chances and I really need to just stop giving in so easily. I always feel like I have to make everyone else happy.

On another note, I actually had a breast reduction, about 3 years ago. Best decision I ever made. I don't have any back pain anymore, and my clothes fit so much better. It really hit me when i was trying on wedding dresses that my boobs weren't an issue any more! If anyone has any other questions about it feel free to ask.

Physically- I wish my hair had some sort of wave or something to it. but thats this mornings issue. In alll seriousness, I wish I was a couple inches taller. Im 10 inches shorter than FI, and my pants are always frayed at the bottoms. 

Personality- I wish I had more confidence in myself. FI tries to tell me that all the time; but theres just something; I always think there is someone better than me; whether its smarter, prettier, funnier, etc. 

7E&G7

Physically: Sometimes I wish I was shorter because I always have trouble finding long jeans and shorts that don't make me look like I got them from the limited lol. I'm 5'9 and when I wear heels I'm like 6 ft. I would still like to keep my long legs just be actually shorter though. Personality: I tend to be dead honest and if I don't like something I say it, I'm not going to lie I'm selfish also and if it's not about me and mine with exceptions I tend to not care. I wasn't always like this, I use to be very shy and caring but always got pushed over so I feel like I've become more assertive but more in the worst way.I'm working on it

ME TOO! I'm just barely 5 feet tall and I have had a complex about it since I was a little kid. I would kill for even just like 2 more inches. NOTHING FITS. EVER.

Personality wise: I wish I wasn't so gosh darn defensive about things. I take pretty much everything personally, even when it's not an insult to me.
