How bad does my body look? Anonymous 22181[Reply]

I'm chubby and working on it, currently 58kg trying to reach 50kg, but I don't know if that will be enough, I fear that losing weight won't really make me look that much better since my hips are so narrow. I'm not asking if I should give up on losing weight, I'm asking how bad my body looks.

because you are a normal-looking woman who thinks she is fat. I used to do the same thing, and it took YEARS to realize they gave me body dysmorphia. You are beautiful Nona, don't let yourself get bullied into thinking you are ugly.

You are kind of fat with a weird body, but so what? Who are you being skinny for again? We both know, so be honest with yourself. The male gaze is not worth appealing to.

Anonymous 22315

I mean, in it's core, yeah, female beauty is about being appealing to men. But you have to admit it's evolved beyond that. Women don't consciously want to be beautiful only to seem appealing to men, it's a new kind of self-worth, it changes how everyone treats and sees you, including women.

Anonymous 22316

imagine thinking this is fat

Yep, including yourself, too

my butt crack….is so dark Anonymous 22044[Reply]

My butt crack is dark and it haunts me. I don’t even want to have sex, I’m just tired of walking around knowing my butt crack skin is dark. It’s like an evil secret I want nothing to do with. I am otherwise very fair. Does anyone know how to treat this? Creams and topicals seem like a load of garbage and do almost nothing. I exfoliate my skin but that’s not going to help with pigmentation. I would assume some form of laser would work, but what kind (pico, maybe?) and what kinds of clinics would offer it for this area of the body?

Synthesizing these, letting dick cheese ferment would bleach their dick.

>>22048
Partial agree here, if OP has a pale complexion, the thicker skin looks much starker than it actually is. Still, since body image is all perception and mindset, get it bleached if that'll help you not think about it anymore, nona

aren't certain parts of your skin (like your armpits and crotch) supposed to be a bit darker than the rest of your body?

Yes
Some parts are supposed to be darker like nipples and the anus and this is normal because the skin tissue is different from the rest of the body

Don't internalize porn beauty standards ffs

>>22084
Fuck that

Anonymous 22314

if this is about not appealing to the moid gaze, then let me tell you right now, some of them LOVE it.

if this is about a personal insecurity, then let me say that darkness on the butt, crotch, or armpits is normal for both sexes, and being ashamed of it is another part of racial light skin dynamics that dominate beauty culture. You are fine and normal, and spending tons of money on weird creams and topicals will not fix the problem and could even cause it to get worse if you create rough spots or cause hyperpigmentation from the inflammation.

Thanks. Alcohol is my poison of choice haha.

I've gained a kilogram and I feel conflicted about it. Trying to trust the process. It's hard to say how much my body is changing because of the bloating. But I don't dislike it. And mentally I feel a lot better.

Anonymous 22178

I got an unsolicited compliment on my body today which made me feel good! I didn't realize how much I craved validation but I feel more secure in gaining weight now.

Anonymous 22265

I ate (half of) the rice that came with my lunch even though I knew it wasn't calculated into the calorie count I looked up earlier. It was great!

Anonymous 22273

I've been feeling weak and super hungry this week and I realized it's probably because I've been under my calorie goal for the past few days. I'm going to try to honor my hunger and eat when I need to.

Anonymous 22312

I think I need to up my calories more. Lately in the afternoon I'm completely exhausted and coffee only mildly helps.

is it just to get toned and towards weight loss/weight balance? if so this is not a bad routine. its very cardio focused but if you dont muscle growth then it probably will meet your goal. id recommend more for your push day (i do cable flys and dips with chest press) but, again, it depends on what you want to achieve (weight loss, muscle growth, toning, endurance, etc)

Anonymous 22263

yes, looking for a "pilates body" lol. want to lose as much fat as possible but still have muscle tone underneath.

Anonymous 22294

I'm going to the gym today! I'm doing a full body workout. I'm still on baby weights but we all start somewhere.

Anonymous 22310

Today is another full body day. I can't wait for my muscles to start showing but I know it will take at least a month.

Luckily I don't have that many so they aren't super noticeable but I cover them with jewelry (on my wrists)

Anonymous 20343

applying glycolic acid a few times a day and then thick moisturizer/bio oil/cocoa butter. and keep them out of the sun cause it'll make them much worse

Anonymous 20496

I don't think it's worth stressing yourself out. i have pretty bad ones on my legs but eventually it gets hot enough outside that i stop giving a fuck and just wear the shorts. There is a lot of societal pressure for people to just mind their own business so even if they notice things like that they aren't gonna go through the awkwardness of bringing it up with you. I've only ever had like 2 people mention it to me in a solidarity type way which is still pretty awkward but not rude or anything.

Anonymous 20520

i have scars on my inner upper thighs, so not very noticable.
I make sure to exfoliate them more as part of my shower routine and used lemon and baking soda when they were pinker. A tattoo (whether temporary or not) is something i have been considering, probably like a robot/cyborg looking body tattoo.

Anonymous 22307

mine are almost four years old now and they're still very noticeable. i'm considering co2 laser even though it's extremely expensive.
thankfully, my boyfriend doesn't mind my scars. i remember being so scared to tell him, but he ended up just asking me what led to me hurting myself and told me he's happy i'm doing better.

Does anyone else feel like foundation is a total scam? Italways ends up making my face look so much heavier even thpugh I apply it lightly. I also hate when young girls slather their acne with foundation. The texture is still visible, it seems like a waste.

I posted before about wearing warm-toned makeup on my cool-toned face… Although I liked it I realized it does clash with my skin so I'm going back to cool tones now that I've used up stuff like blush and lipstick.

Anonymous 22306

I want to buy dark lipstick for fall but constantly reapplying it during the day is such a hassle…

bad period pain Anonymous 22304[Reply]

hey nonas,
on my period right now and it hurts like FUCK. I missed an event i really wanted to go to. I can barely get out of bed with my heating pad on the highest setting. im nauseous and it hurts from my abdomen to my thighs.
Apparently ibuprofen is really bad for your liver, especially if you need to take a lot. So I started taking tylenol instead. Still hurts like a bitch. The reason I’m not taking birth control is because I am going to donate my eggs when I’m legally able to. I am thinking of consulting a doctor though, because apparently it can be symptomatic of endo.

Do you nonas know about any otc medications, teas, herbs, etc to help with bad period pain?

Anonymous 22305

you can take both ibuprofen and acetaminophen in the same day as it affects organs differently, and also you can stagger your medication doses so there is less chance to be affected by pain. i did this for post-wisdom teeth removal though, so im not sure how it is long term if you have monthly periods, but maybe it could reduce how those medications affect different organs. just a suggestion as you have both of those pills already. definitely look into it before taking advice though.

tea helps but i think that's bc the heat makes the body relax a bit more. when i had tea i usually had something calming like mint or green.

Why do some people have straight hair and some have wavy hair? Why does hair become straight again shortly after she curls it?
