8 WAYS TO BOOST YOUR BODY IMAGE

It's getting warmer out ... and that means bathing suit season is just around the corner. Even if the idea of putting on a bathing suit makes you want to run and hide, you can still learn to love your body. Boost your confidence with these tips, from Redbook.com:

1. Get a head-to-toe grooming session: after a manicure, pedicure, and bikini wax, you'll feel fresh, pretty and almost new!

2. Go shoe shopping. At least you know your shoe size doesn't go up after a few too many margaritas!

3. Put on some makeup. Just because you're having a bad body-image day doesn't mean you can't have an "I feel pretty" day.

4. Treat yourself to a massage or facial. It's a great, relaxing way to get back in touch with your body.

5. Sign up for a 5K or 10K race with a friend. It's hard not to feel fit and confident when you're training and thinking about crossing that finish line!

6. Wear clothes that fit, even if it means going up a size. If your clothes are too tight, they remind you that those size 8s don't fit like they used to. And clothes that are too loose make you look frumpy and heavier -- not exactly a confidence builder.

7. Accept compliments with a smile. You deserve them, so act like you do -- you might just believe yourself!

8. Set your sights on what you like when looking at your reflection -- not on your trouble zones. Remember: It's OK to be proud of your body.
