I think I'm OK with what I see in the mirror, but like every other woman, there are things I would change too. The wrinkles, tightening this, lifting that. But will I? Probably not. I think everyone goes through a phase where they want to fit in and look like everyone else. They want to look like Hollywood celebrities who don't -- to your point Susan, look like what's portrayed on the cover of magazines. And even if they do, it seems they have to sacrifice a lot (Think food) to do it.
Several years ago, a celebrity said something like "It's better to change your attitude about your body than it is to change your body." Don't remember who it was, but I like it. And as long as a woman's health isn't compromised, she should accept herself.
