IT IS SO EASY TO GO TO THE EXTREMES...THE DIFFICULTY IS WHEN ARE WE HAPPY WITH OUR NEW BODIES...I AM STRUGGLING MYSELF...I JOINED A NEW WEB SITE...FOR BEARS...AND MANY GUYS ARE TELLING ME HOW GOOD I LOOK...AND I DO NOT SEE IT....THEY THINK I HAVE A GREAT BODY.....BUT I AM AT THE GYM EVERY DAY FEELING FLABBY WE ALL NEED TO SUPPORT OURSEVLES IN WORKING ON POSITIVE BODY IMAGE O.K.....THIS IS A GAME WE PLAY WITH THE KIDS WITH EATING ISSUES.. THE 2 BEST PARTs OF MY BODY ARE..... 1)My smile 2) my calfs O.K.......WHO IS NEXT ?

Hi Sean, You do have a WOOOFY bear body. 1) My calves 2) My shoulders

OK Sean! You look damn good! We all know it. People tell me all the time I don't need to lose anymore weight, but who are they to tell me such? I'll have to admit I sometimes think I look good. I know it is a joke, but who cares. My best parts are: my smile (I hope) ????? (don't know what #2 would be since I don't work out). Tommy

Tommy definitley your smile, and I would say your chest/belly, I can see myself laying my head there.

I'm too slow a loser to be impressed with what I've achieved so far (5 weeks out, and only 20 lbs. lost; 40 lbs. since Sep 2007). Plus, I seem to be stuck between the extremes of body image dysmorphia; when I see a photo of me at my heaviest, I can't believe I weighed that much, but when I see a photo now, I still can't believe I weigh so much! OTOH, my partner assures me that I look much lighter. (But he HAS to say that!) Having acknowledged that, I'd have to say that my best features are: 1.) my calves (this is one area where being overweight for all your life really pays off!) When you go to the gym and see all these artificially-muscled guys walking on pencil calves, and their endless (and useless) attempts at building them up, it's one body part I feel comfortable with. 2.) My body hair. Of course, not everyone thinks that's sexy, but I say "Love me, love my fur..." Other favorite body parts will have to wait for some additional weight loss. /FooBear

LMAO@ "Love me, love my fur." Too bad as a female I can't say that. Oh and the partner doesn't HAVE to say that. The hubby tells me that he can't tell that I have lost anything but yet he was first to point out that I had gained.

Yeee owwww.... ou gonna put a girl on the spot.... Ok sean....with the dismorphia hitting me hard... my best parts of my body are..... My Biceps (worked for this hard in the gym) Waist/ass (I have a great PS) he earned every last penny.... Great chat.... Russ

You do look hot Sean! I wish you could see it. I understand completely. There are those rare moments that I catch a glimse in the mirror and have to do a double take because I look so much thinner. But most times it's the other way around. I see no difference in being 257 or 191. I'm still the fat girl. Chris doesn't say much about the weight loss, but she didn't say anything about the weight gain either. She love me however I am. I have to learn to do the same thing. My 2 best parts? One used to be my breasts, but no more. Age and weight loss have fixed that! 1. My eyes 2. My legs. Even for a fat girl, I have great legs. Thanks Mom! Rachelle

1. Lips. 2. Feet. From what people have said they're cute? lol

R- You do have great lips, I bet they paint great....opps queen alert (I know lots of drag queens that would love your lips) russ
