Challenge YOUR body image.


Recommended Posts

SpecialSundae you look fantastique! So strong and lovely.

 

Kaelvan, you remind me of Natalie Maines, who I think is completely adorable. (I know that she's a bit controversial but let's not get into that here.)

 

I am kind of digging these Google image results. My interpretation of some of them:

 

 

Kaelvan - I see a lot of green and looking away from the camera or being partially hidden. You prosper when you are alone (introverts, unite! Separately!) You are a secret fan of The Wiggles and like to sing along to their hit, Fruit Salad.

 

:playful:

Totally forgot about her. Seriously love her short hair. I'm so tempted to cut my hair shorter even more now. Also, helps I'm magically unicorn

 

I've yet to listen The Wiggles.

I can't stop laughing over this. What have you done to me?

When they get into the steps... I can't help but think of Dick in a Box.... and that ruins the show completely. :-)

Whilst I appreciate that we're all entitled to our own opinion, a thread about body positivity is possibly not the place to tell us which body type you find unattractive.

I doubt anyone here has a posture like America's favorite hunchback. I just find it weird to use her as a body comparison in a fitness community and I hope no one has a goal to look like her. There has to be better options than that.

As you can see, no offense intended to anyone here. Unless one of you is actually Taylor Swift. In that case, please straighten out and eat something, Taylor.

This is a body shape/type thread, not a body posture thread. There are plenty of fit and strong people who are also very thin like Taylor Swift. It seems kind of strange that I even have to say that but there it is. (And FWIW, before it was pointed out in this thread, I hadn't thought about it but when I was TS's age, I was pretty much her shape. Four inches shorter but the same shape for sure.)

There was someone who was already being compared to Taylor Swift in terms of body type and there's nothing to say that she isn't fit and healthy as well as slender.

 

This is also not a "What do you find attractive?" thread but one trying to encourage body confidence and a positive body image.

Poor Taylor Swift.

 

I really don't want this forum to turn into that.

Well part Scottish (because Americans always refer to their blood like that)...I been typing late at night again. Very dangerous stuff.

I have no clue what I'm saying anymore. Lack of sleep ain't helping

You're just a dirty little tease!!!! :P

Wolverine here....

 

I think most of us guys would like to look like that. That being said, I got close a couple years back. I just don't wanna repeat the process that led to it. Final week of military training was a 4 days fully equipped march of 120km with no food, I also managed to drink over a gallon of water a day and not need a bathroombreak. But yeah after that week I defenatly came close to the Wolverine look. Doubt it was healthy though :D

Don't miss days like that, not having much muscle to begin with, I never reached wolverine status...

You got the sex change too... *high five*

The first female image was a fair bit in, and it was much more realistic while being much less hilarious.

 

You look fantastic though.

Thanks.  I spend a lot of time in baggy tshirts for lifting and judo, so I really only get to get them out at weigh in.

Wow Busy thread!

 

I'd like to take a second to say that I always thought that Special Sundae's avatar was her holding a long bow... While that picture of you in the blue dress is wicked hot, it has ruined my imaginary image of you as some badass archer lifter who shoots a longbow 2 miles away at a Warg...

 

--

 

Went Swimming after an outdoor run along the ocean last night. New shell wear, and my old headlamp were enough to get me out the door, but it is still not the same as runs in the light... back to swimming:  had a group of people turn heads at me as I walked by... Back to positive body image!

She can hit you from 2 miles away with a bow... and she'll do it in a dress and heels...

ok... maybe I like that one better
 
 
my problem isn't so much in how I VIEW my body... I look in the mirror and constantly have to double take because I don't recognize myself...

my problem is more with how I FEEL... when I move I FEEL fat.... I FEEL my rolls of extrabody when I try to move or bend or or or or... I FEEL out of breath... (that's not to say I don't recognize how much LESS out of breath I feel) I love that I can feel muscle.... but I want moving to be easy to FEEL easy
