Are we happy with our bodies? Well over 57% of us are unhappy or very unhappy with our bodies and guess what – nobody reported being Very Happy with their shape.

The research shows that we still have to go some way in accepting our bodies.

Sadly though our poor body image affects us in more than physical ways, with 73.1% of us believing that a good body is important to be successful and 56% of us reporting that poor body issues reduce our sex drive and nearly 58% of us actually being jealous of a partner’s body.

Well over half of us would have or consider having cosmetic surgery with our stomachs, chests, butts and arms being the areas we are most unhappy about.

Despite this only under 4% have actually been under the doctor’s knife and had cosmetic surgery.

The top 5 are:

Ben Cohen
