My body image

[roger8roger]

So, I've posted a few questions about my body insecurities, and I realized that a journal might be more helpful for me.

 

Keep it all in one place.

 

And I think it is more helpful as a tool for myself. I need to change my thinking!

 

 

I am insecure about the size of my weiner. I know it's silly, but can't shake it (bad bun). My question on size in the forums helped a lot.

 

I am insecure about the size of my small butt. Also silly, but again my question in the forums helped a lot.

 

I am too skinny. have not talked about this yet.

 

I need some muscles LOL!

 

Well here are just a few. I will post more to talk about my feelings.

 

I hope this helps me, and maybe helps others!

Penis.

 

Why does this matter. Why do I let it define who I am? My manliness. My worth. I am so much more than this.

In reality, I am average - 5.5 inches long - but I feel tiny.

 

Maybe b/c I am a grower, not a shower. I always felt small in the locker room. Maybe because a girl in 1oth graded said I was small.

Maybe I watched too much porn.

Maybe I think women can only be satisfied by a big one.

Maybe I'm just insecure.

 

I want to accept my body. For myself.

 

I know it is crazy. My wife does not seem to mind. I please her sexually. But I can't help defining myself by this shortcoming.

Have you considered weightlifting, or some other physical activity to put on muscle? Exercise in general also helps boost your confidence.

I'm extremely insecure myself, roger. I have been since I was younger...at 15, I was 180 pounds...at 5'2" that's not exactly the ideal weight. I lost the weight eventually and then got pregnant at 19. I've since lost all the weight but after my body had gone through all the gaining/losing/gaining/losing, my body is not as 'sleek' as I would like it to be. Over the past couple of months, I've started doing a lot of weight training and taken up running. Building muscle is hard but it's SO addicting and will do wonders for your confidence. You don't even have to use weights, you can use your own body weight. Various push-ups, squats, circuits using towels. I kinda like the 'crossfit' feel to working out and I utilize kettle bells a lot. I could send you some links if you're interested, feel free to PM me. I wish you luck. It's hard when you're your own worst enemy. Every single day is a battle, I can totally relate.

Thank you so so much, dang it is nice to know that I am not alone (but I am sorry to hear about others' insecurities!).

first work out nothing too crazy. just tried to do some push ups. 3 sets of 10 and then my arms felt like they were going to fall off!

I think I have a long way to go, but I've taken the first step

First step is the hardest! Don't give up
