hblyne Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Ditch the trainer. You look much leaner and have more defined muscles than that lower shot. Quote Battle Log - Record from the Front Lines http://hblyne.com Link to comment
Guzzi Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I'm pretty sure no-one wants to see me naked, and I've been married for 12 years and have three kids. Though my wife is just as down on her own body, and I LOVE seeing her naked, so... go figure.Dude! You know what I'm gonna say. YOU KNOW.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Make Life Rue The Day Turning back the clock Recipe book 14 Life is far too short to take seriously Link to comment
Guzzi Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Top being me (Ok, I'm 6lbs heavier right now than in this picture. December wasn't kind - but it was fun!). I loathe how I look. I truly do. It's been kind of fucking with me a bit more than normal recently, when the trainer I work with told me I am obese. It kind of made me feel like shit, when I was all proud of cutting from 241 to 206 (thank god I'm very tall). The only thing wrong with this picture is that you're not smiling. Mind you..... You've got such a killer smile that maybe it's a good thing. Us ladies might faint, or go weak at the knees if we saw that body and smile in the same picture...... EDIT: And btw - what a load of crap! You have more muscle and definitely less fat than that guy.

monk Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 I might have some dissonance between how I view my body and how it appears to others.For most of my life, I've been really, really skinny (started high school 6'3", 140, graduated 6'4" 160), and so I've ranged somewhere from this if I'm feeling bad about myself:to this, if I'm feeling good.:I put on a little weight at the end of college when I got into lifting, and looked more normal -ish. As in, occasionally I would see people skinnier than me, and think, "Oh, I don't look like that any more."Then, more recently, I've gotten into lifting again. I've gained 20lbs (6'6", 210 atm), and am the strongest I've ever been in my life. People recently have started telling me that I am looking muscular and such, and one of my coworkers (who has made it very clear he's attracted to me), tells me I have the body that he is working for. But when I look in the mirror, I see myself just as skinny as ever, but now sans abs, and with a little gut from trying to gain weight. I don't really know what I look like anymore. Edit: I realized this was pointless without any pictures of me. So, it became selfie time.Le me: Le me flexing and posing like a dumbass:I'm super late but I swear I've seen this guy on the cover of a Flash comic.

kaelvan Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Can someone explain why they use fruit to describe body shapes (pear, apple..). Was someone hunger for fruit coming up with the body types? 1 Quote “There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.†~Paulo Coelho I'm a level 3 moon elf, who's an druid assassin.

Silo Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 My guess is it started with pear shaped because what else is that shape, except a gourd? Then they had to stick with fruit because that theme was better than a hodge podge of gourds, bocce balls, and rulers. Quote 2016 goals: Hit goal weight.

StillWaters Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Gourds come in all shapes and sizes (ex. pumpkins are gourds, but clearly are not pear-shaped): Some are smooth, bumpy, big, small and everything in between, apple- pear- lemon- pineapple- whatever- shaped, every color under the sun, or just plain weird. Maybe we should use gourds for comparison instead of fruit. 2 Quote Link to comment
