This is a question for everyone , please answer honestly .
If you were offered 10 grand to " fix " any part of your body would you do it ? Even if you felt pretty ok with " you " would you take the money and maybe fix the end of your nose , or add fullness to your upper lip , or maybe have minor scars removed ?
Remember it will require surgery , but may also make you " beautiful "
Would you do it and what would you have done ? If not , then why not ?
I dont think I'd do it because Im a scardy cat. I dont have the reassurance that this procedure is going to go as planned and have me look the way that I want, so for that alone, I dont think I'd do it. But if I did, I would & I'd probably have my hips augmented. But again, Im too scared so... *shakes head*.

^ yeah you're right it would be scary. Especailly if you chose to go through with it... o.o
I'm not sure....probably not. I mean i'm okay with how i am. Maybe i would make them get rid of all the fat i have I'm about average weight, but i would want myself to be in perfect shape. And i would definately have lazer hair removal.

First off i am too chicken to have any uneccessary surgery. Second of all i am okay with who i am. God made me this way for a reason and i don't think that i'm smarter than God. So i'm going to trust that I am who i am for a reason and purpose.

Many people do actually think that way. But sometimes the elements that be cause pressure for certain people to just go ahead and do it because they feel like "I only have one life to live... let me live it the way I feel most comfortable living it"- even if that means doing something that can kill you.
I couldn't do it because Im a scardy cat. As for feeling confident and being happy for being the way I am, I do. But tell that to someone who dyes their hair all of the time. Or people who constantly go to tanning salons to have a summer glow the whole year around. They obviously don't like the way they look. Its the same thing... One is just more drastic than the other.
Its the same thing.

It is the same thing. Self acceptance is so hard for so many people. Even the most confident people you will ever meet can have a problem with this. They feel the need to tan all the time, or dye their hair to impress people to "look their best" as alot say. What they dont' realize is natural beauty is more beautiful than anything that can be manufactured. You don't need to dye your hair, or be a certain skin color to be beautiful. Your boobs don't need to be a certain size for you to be sexy, and you don't have to be a 0 to look good in clothes. Don't ever let someone convince you otherwise. You are you for a reason, you may not see it at the moment, and you will have times when you hate things about yourself, but at some point you have to realize that you are beautiful and no amount of procedures will help you feel better. If anything it breeds more self concious behavior. You have to accept who you are exactly the way you are before you can be happy about your body. Once you accept yourself you will see you don't need anything done to be beautiful.

Would I have surgery done?: No.
But, what if there's a difference between what you think is beautiful and what is actually healthy. I mean, if I were five-hundred pounds and I thought I was beautiful, would it be okay for me to keep living my life in thay way? Even though there would be people telling me that I was unhealthy...? Or if I was very very very thin, perhaps caused by bulimia or anorexia but I though I was beautiful then...

And whatever you consider beauty would you do it... if you had the means to?
