6’ 34 year old male. Last summer after a trip south I came home and randomly weighed myself to find I was 246lbs. I was shocked - I knew I could lose some weight but when had I put all the extra on? I blamed the lockdowns! Anyway, that really pushed me to start loosing weight.
I won’t get into it too much here because it’s not the point of this post, but as of today I’m 175lbs and I workout at LEAST 6 days a week. I do cardio and strength training. I look at old photos of me and myself today and I just can’t believe it. I’m finally becoming toned, and I feel great.
HOWEVER - nearly every single person that has known me has told me “you’re too skinny man”. At first I would laugh this off but it’s becoming annoying. Any comments on my weight now is just off putting to me for some reason. My goal weight is 170 but I don’t mind if I bulk up a little bit with my weight training. https://i.imgur.com/oM6wSxX.jpg
Confidence is great to have and support even better… but is anybody else bothered by others comments at all? Like I said - it used to be kind of flattering but it’s gotten to the point where it’s almost insulting.
