Do you know what is really good for body image? Belly dancing. I love my belly dance class. The more you have to shimmy and shake, the better.
My instructors are both middle-aged women. Neither is conventionally beautiful, but one of them has the most perfect female hips - she's not skinny but they accentuate her waist and are just shaped in a way that says "I'm a woman!!!" And both of them are just so comfortable with their bodies. That's the best part about belly dance, is getting to know your body and all of its parts and how to move and use each part of you. I have never felt so sexy as when I'm belly dancing. I'm not worried about how my body looks, I'm just thinking about moving this particular muscle, or moving my hips just so. Very liberating.
