This sounds a bit stupid but; no I ain't jealous because I look the way she does (and even better.) however I think I have had the luck of good genes. I am tall, and have near model-measurements with a flat stomach and some female curves. At first I felt insecure. People told me I was fat - and I believed them because of my insecurity. I started to eat less till the point of just two small meals a day. That was the point where I thought: they still consider me fat, and when I looked in the mirror I saw a fragile girl. That's when I decided to go back to my normal eating pattern and started working out. Just a simple 20 sit ups and push ups before bedtime. After 3 months I saw the first muscles popping up which made me motivated. I decided to cut out all junk (which I didn't like before, so why not quit at all?) and it made huge changes to my body. I no longer felt tired, my skin began to glow and my hair got shiny. Now, three years later I am more confident than ever. I feel happy in my own skin which does show off on the outside. I no longer feel "attacked" by women on the tv or in magazines; I am just as beautiful as they are in my own way. For me it was my fitness journey which brought me here; seeing my body change and growing more beautiful. I loved how I got strong, and how I could be better than everyone thougt I would ever be. I do not know what your journey to this feeling is but keep in mind: everyone who is great once was small. No shame, you are worth it. Head up, and you go girl!

I use to think like that until I realized being jealous didn't do anything. Wishing I was naturally skinny wasn't going to make me skinny. So in reality I was wasting my time wiki go was skinny instead of going ou and actually doing something about it. Once I actually started to realize this and started I work hard I actually started losing weight and looking like that.
Now I'll never have small boobs or thin thighs like I want but I can have a slimmer body that I'm not ashamed to put in a bikini anymore.
That's the type of body I'm working on to make mine look like. I've always loved the Athletic body build. Not where they look all muscle but more like this.

i think you shouldn't be jealous of anyone just think whatever you are, you are wonderful and if you think there are chances of change in you then change yourself accordingly but never be jealous just because of someone is more prettier than you... Just think that you are also beautiful.
It really depends on how much you want it.
It's the same as "gosh i'd love to have that car." Well if i really wanted it i'll make sacrifices and work towards that goal.

There's a saying: God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change what I can and the wisdom to know the difference.
Not really, I can't be bothered to compare myself to other women, that typically only leads to feelings of insecurity. I don't have a very "feminine" body. My boobs are small, my butt is medium-ish, I have long legs, and my stomach isn't completely flat. I rarely get "boy attention" but I still wear bikinis though and feel confident in myself. All women are built differently, we can't all look the same, that would be such a boring world to live in.
Compare yourself to other people: The mother of all unhappiness. You are not them, sadness is bound to ensue. They have qualities that exceed yours, you have qualities that exceed theirs. I'll bet your self perception is off anyway. I'll bet you look better than you think.
No, I have quite a thin yet curvy body, I can feel my hips pushing against my skin in the morning and it's a strangely nice feeling because you know you've lost weight. Even then, I see pictures of girls with really toned bodies and I don't feel jealous, I feel motivated. I purposely follow accounts on instagram that post these toned women's pictures so it makes me want it more. If you want a nicer body, you have to work for it and eventually, others will be jealous of you.
Meh, I could have a great body, but then I have to work out every day and I don't think the boy attention is worth it. I just impress guys with a great personality, which attracts the better type of guys. I still wear bikinis and sometimes I do want to work out and look better, but I have more important stuff to do right now. Maybe next year I will work out more and get my dream body.
Ha... been there. Im a decent weight and a crappy build. It really bothers me to be around girls who look good in shorts. I have bony legs that I hide under pants all summer.
You really do have to put into perspective though. What kinds of guys are those girls getting? Some good guys, but mostly crappy guys that only want her because she's hot.Every guy's taste in women is completely different. Don't let these magazines, TV shows, and movies tell you otherwise. :)
No, I am never jealous of other women's bodies. I believe we are all different, and all beautiful in our own way. Some a muscular, some are thin, some are curvy and some are chubby. Beauty comes from the inside, and as long as you're healthy, you shouldn't be judged from your appearance. All bodies are beautiful.
Yea, that was bullshit, I am jealous as fuck, no matter how many people write that "feel good" speech. I don't think most of them even believe in it themselves.Look, don't look others what their body type and you wish to want it like that. No what you are being like that its your own personality. Make yourself good as well by exercise and yoga and then look yourself how you look.
Sucks being a guy with a fat stomach too. I feel hopeless about it. I haven't been to a public pool for a few years because of my stupid gross body.
They get a lot more boy attention probably indeed, but are those the best guys?
Don't worry, attraction is subjective
Personally, the pic u posted, i don't see her as attractive, maybe she's pretty, but... nvm
Anyway, attention from boys won't be as big a problem as u thinkthe nice thing about bodies, is that they can be changed. so no need to be jealous and wishing when you can work hard and have that body for yourself
Sometimes we just gotta accept that we're not gonna look like that. I have given up on trying to be something I'm not. Attractive.
Yes its a nice pic, but I'm sure you don't look bad. Why not enjoy what you have? We all want stuff that we don't have, or that we aren't.
No.. I look at those girls with admiration, since it's hard work to get abs showing like that.
If you want that body, work out a lot and eat healthy. Such a body is not a gift, its hard work.
For me, face is the most important thing as I know it is for most guys.
Perfectly natural to always feel like you're not good enough. As humans, we think we need to be perfect. The only thing perfect about humans, is that we're imperfect. Guys AND girls understand that, and appreciate it
I feel that way about really good-looking guys, too. I guess I just have to workout a lot!
