I do like my body. Because as a kid I was a total ugly duckling to the rest of the world, I never quite believe that *other* people find me physically attractive, and I probably appreciate compliments more than most do as a result, but I do think I'm good looking. (With occasional exceptions when breaking out horribly or what have you). I've even been known, on rare occasions, to catch a reflection of myself in a mirror and go "wow, is that *me*?"
I like my face (my eyes, my eyebrows, my cheekbones). I like my collar bones. I like my flat tummy and my long legs. I even like the fact that the toes on one foot don't quite match the toes on the other foot.
There are still things I'd probably change if I could do it easily though. I'd like another inch or two; 5' 7" is just ducky, but being able to see on top of things and reach things is awfully nice. I'd probably shave just a bit off the thighs, so they'd match my (very narrow) shoulders a little better; I'm not planning on bearing children. Mostly, I'd like to be physicaly stronger. I suppose there are things I could do (and probably should) about that.

But really, I can't complain.
