I have scaring on my body from a misdiagnose that I'm very insecure about. I wont stand in certain lighting just so it'd be less noticeable. >_<

Weight is my own insecurity.

I think my weight is part of it; but it is more the distribution of weight. I have man shoulders and I hate that I can't wear spaghetti straps like girls with beautiful collar bones and skinny shoulders.

As a kid I was teased for having red hair. So I'm semi insecure about that. But I have embrased my gingerhood. Hard to find extensions and even make up sometimes that looks good.

my weight - not because i'm thick, but because i'm really thin. i'm 14 years old, 5'6, and 95 pounds. i'm naturally like this, i don't diet or excersize a lot or anything. people can be really mean and say things like, "she's too skinny that's disgusting" and a lot of other things. embrace your thickness girls! :) xx

It's really sad that everybody said their weight was their insecurity. We should all be proud of our bodies no matter how big or small we may be! It makes me really upset that society and the media puts a weight limit on beauty, it's not right. All of yall are beautiful and don't ever forget that!

Definitely weight as well...and also acne-scarred skin. I think as long as we don't dwell on them too much, it's ok to admit what your insecurities are! :)

I have psoriasis on my stomach, which is really noticeable and ucky looking. bleh. I'm assuming its psoriasis or a type of similar skin issue...its a lot of discolored, flaky patches, and I still have to see a derm about it . I'm going to a pool party next weekend, though, and am dreading wearing a bikini! lol
I also have the pleasure of being born with a bit more body/facial hair than the average female, which means I always have to be on my game about waxing/shaving/plucking etc. Thanks a LOT for those genes, Dad. >_<

Warning: A little bit nasty, in my opinion at least.
Okay, I don't know how many of you are going to be able to relate to this because it's kind of a guy thing (I'm sure some of you will, but just saying), but facial and body hair has always been my biggest insecurity. I'm half scottish (thanks, dad.) and my facial and body hair is really dark and thick. Shaving is a pain and it requires constant upkeep. I have constant shadowing on my face and neck, my skin is always red and I am prone to ingrown hairs. I'm going to try waxing soon (Not my face, oh dear god), I hope it does me better than anything else I've tried.
It's all very limiting, especially with the clothing I wear. I almost always wear jeans or pants, this is the first year I've braved wearing shorts, and depending on how my skin is on any given day I can't wear lower cut necklines. Sleeves are a must. It's terrible, and I obsess over it every single day.

most people think that my biggest insecturaty is my weight as i currently weight 19 stone but you know what. im kinda strange most ppl loose weight if they get bullied for being fat well eventully do but the ppl who bullied me actully made me just shout fuck you in fabulous just how i am and no one can tell me different.
but for a while it was and i have so say thank you to them bullies who tortured me though high school for making me the strong independent driven person i am today.
and know after years of trying i have finaly lost almost a stone 3 more pounds and im there.
also for any one eles trying to loose weight. i have to say i could not do it with out all the doctors who help me.
i see my general doctor 1 every 2 weeks to get weighted
i have a dietion group every friday for 10 weeks. there are about 10 ppl in my group we have 2 fitness trainers and 2 deitions for a 1:30 hour session
i also have a one 2 one dietition once a month
and a fitness trainer onces a month
oh i also have a therapist that helps me understand why i eat when i eat
and ill be having a group for that 2
gareth my personal fitness trainer actully called me today about him getting me a set of weights that i can have at home so that i can work out with out going to the gym. i love it
he even wants me to ring him when i get back from holiday to see how it all went
they are more like friends than my doctors.
although i totaly sound like im some super crazy person but i swear im just alittle crazy.
but realy if you are trying to loose weight having some one you can go to regully even if its just your general doctor it helps as you have some one to keep you motovated and keep your mind on the right place
tomorrow i will be posting my first video on my weightloss channel on youtube
