It is ok. You just need to maintain balance between self love and narcissism. It is not bad to focus on your looks. Sometimes it is required so that we can focus on the aspects which can improve our appearance and that gives us some confidence and we might even adopt a healthy life style just because of it.

The best job I can do in relating is just my worries at growing the appetite of a horse. I'm fearful that these are the years coming up where I put on a stomach that I cannot outrun. Luckily, I've had a fast metabolism all my life but it all slows down one day.
Can't say it's developed into taking pictures but I've become a lot more conscious of my posture and resting facial expressions.
It's healthy as long as I'm not just using myself as a reference. You don't want to become your own echo chamber otherwise your intelligence suffers (as in the intelligence of using the wider world around you as a reference for your reality). By "you" I mean "me".
There was a moment where I was at risk of falling into the "looks don't matter as much as what's inside" crowd, you know the types to say things that sound really wholesome but are fundamentally empty and make you feel nothing, or that someone has just tried to shut you up from voicing things that bother them more than you.
Just dodge the whole the rherotic around looks and hang around people who can give real insight into what works for you. One of my good friend is a PT and he generally keeps me on a solid grounding. Not to say a PT is what matches your interests, but it did for mine.

Posted by drunkghostIt's all about balance.
yeah it's tough to find the middle ground but practice good health habits like working out, taking care of your skin, and watching what you eat will put you in that mind set where you feel good regardless of what others opinions may be

Posted by RozaeonYes it's a true issue for me. It's a curse because I'm always criticizing myself. I wouldn't even consider it a blessing.
I don't understand what " looksmax " means, and i don't have a problem with how i look nor give a fuck about what people has to say
However i have a big big problem regarding body image for like 10 years, and even if i'm underweight i'm obsessed with it, and i feel you 100% when you said that you are too hard on yourself, i am too ( and Capricorn as one of my dominant sign too haha )
Posted by WhorpioAwwww how sweet!Posted by Wineaux15

Have you try to read some self help or personal development book on this subject ? I'm currently reading some of them and it helps. The progress are not instant but even baby steps are good ^^
Also you're right to be suspicious to post pictures on this websiteclick to expand
Posted by Wineaux154 kids o.O
Yeah..... it hurt and I'm taking it too personally. I'm used to being small. Even after 4 kids I was at my biggest a size 7... now I have a few people make that comment... I checked my weight and I gained 7 pounds. I'm more irritated with myself for caring though.
Posted by OrGasMeI am going through some weird ish right now! Truly weird.Posted by Wineaux15
Lately I've been obsessed with my looks. I'm miserable! Usually I don't give a f*#% what others think of me, but nowadays if someone says... "you've gained a bit" or whatever they may say it really hurts my feelings and gets to me. Next thing you know I'm obsessing to "looksmax" or "Maxmilla". I put photos in my photos section but only for a bit before I delete... soon I'll take them down because I'm so suspicious. Is anyone else going through this? What are you doing to get through this shallow period! It's soooo not me and killing me slowly.
I gene heard Aquas are going through weird stuff right now. Blame it on a planet. LOLclick to expand
Posted by SofiaV87I wish I could do that. It'd be so much easier for me. I always try to sit and reflect daily and the other day I was reflecting on why image is so important. When I look at my mom's side of the family( my mom and my mom's mom) they're like size 2's and still look young. I have a baby face, but I'm working out daily to be 7,8, or size 9 sometimes! I'm trying to measure up to them and I'm failing miserably.
I care about my looks all the time, I get it.. sometimes it can get out of hand.. that's when I step back, breathe & say to myself stop obsessing lol
Posted by Wineaux15Cuz the world we live in is obsessively image conscious , it's disturbing but it's the disturbing truth.. i see women with great bodies in all those sizes.. don't worry about the size , I know u wanna feel good but don't make it about the sizePosted by SofiaV87I wish I could do that.

Posted by FortunaI do yoga with my daughter every morning outside. That does make me feel better.
Get your endorphins going...get outside, be active. Give yourself some 'me' time, do something nice for yourself. it'll make you feel better. At least you're doing things for yourself to improve whatever it is you're currently unhappy about.
The way you view yourself is more important than anyone else.
Posted by FortunaI think I do need to trick my body. I think my body is accustomed to what I've been doing.Posted by Wineaux15Just saw that you are working out. Maybe invest in a trainer if you can. Or change up your work out routines, you may need to trick your body, if it gets used to the same workoutsPosted by SofiaV87I wish I could do that. It'd be so much easier for me.

Posted by Wineaux15Being obsessed with one's looks is an Aqua trait.
