So in my earlier thread about family introducing you to a girl etc.

 

Oh the greatness of it all! When your families are connected you hear all the chatter.

 

So today my aunt told my mom that the girl's aunt told her, that "He's fat? She said he looks fat"

 

That's amazing! I know i'm not skinny, but i'm 6 ft, 175lbs mostly fit, I swim a lot. But fat?! c'mon.

 

Ok I realize i'm slightly larger than most Chinese dudes my age, but still.

 

Dammit, i'm getting on my Wii Fit... *turns on Wii fit... tells me i'm overweight*

 

NOOOO!!!

I would look like a stick being 150lbs and 6ft...

good .

A guy who is 6ft tall and weighs 175# is not fat by any stretch of the imagination.

Lay off the pizzas , fatty:lmao:

My family hate excess fat and I think it's wrong calling loved ones names!

Just find a girl who likes "more junk in the trunk" as Americans say:laugh:

Posted

You're not fat, just slightly chubby... :laugh:

Posted

maybe you need to be more toned? a lot of people look a bit flabby because of booze, sitting around too much, etc

Posted

I'm fat. :)

 

I need a girl who likes more junk in HER trunk *winks* ;)

 

-TP

Based on your pics you're not fat, but you look a bit chubby around the face and neck. I think you'd look great if you lost like 15 pounds. 175 is normal for 6', but I think a lot of women like even leaner than that as long as it's combined with some muscle mass.

You're not fat. You have more of the northern chinese or Taiwanese look about you, rather than the darker, more gaunt southern chinese.

 

Do you speak variable dialects of Mandarin or Cantonese?

I think you look really hot, personally... :love:

Oh, c'mon. What s this "chubby around the face and neck" business? Christ, do we all have to look like freakin' GQ models? OP, when you worry about weight, worry about it in terms of health, not some silly, unrealistic male-model ideal. If women have a problem with that, let them go @#$% somebody else.

sounds like they like you dude! :cool:

I think you look great. FYI I like men at 6 feet tall : between 220 and 245 lbs. The muscular football player , stocky, with some fat is fine :)

I never did quite get the "Ideal" Physique.

 

Some folks simply do not have that sensor button when speaking of others Physical being. For some its the way they were raised, for others its just plain rudeness.

 

Maybe I notice a persons smile first and how it beholds the face. And the poster has a welcoming smile. ANd that is what welcomes real folks into his life!

Ah I know exactly what you are seeing. My face is a bit wider than usual. It's my head. Although when I was lighter it wasn't as evident. Good call :D

ah, yes, NOW it makes sense :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::p:lmao:

When we get to the older ages.. its gonna happen we will retain some of that extra flesh...

 

Hell I'm 33 and 5'11 at about 145lbs or so. I got some extra I need to deal with myself.. its more of a personal image/opinion thing. Don't take it seriously.. so long as your girl likes you.. who gives a F what her aunt thinks

This is awesome, but I feel it is pretty unrealistic with how most of the world works.

 

The fact is, when I lost 50 pounds, all of a sudden women's numbers began to find their way into my phone, and girls I would have never dreamed of flirting with before began to initiate conversations with me.

 

My personality and my smile didn't change with the weight-loss, and my confidence did not increase from creating a workout or living more healthily- a lot of the weight loss was unhealthy because it was from stress in other areas of my life.

 

After being bitter at how shallow people seemed as the result of this phenomenon, I came to terms with the fact that we are still animals, and physical attraction is simply still one of the strongest evolutionary phenomena active today- having its roots in the reproductive survival of the species.

 

Not that there are exceptions- plus there is an equally amazing phenomenon where after warming up to someone and getting to know them better after a time, your brain begins to start pumping chemicals and you actually start to see them in a more physically attractive light, even if they haven't changed physically at all.

 

The human mind is a strange and wondrous thing.

50 pound difference is quite a bit! Perhaps they didn't like you because they didn't appreciate your lifestyle and health. They think you will keel over and die of fat overdose in 2 years... not a very long commitment?

I like your posts. I hope you stay a while. :D

 

And if that is you in your avatar - you are very attractive. And I would NEVER say 175 at 6ft is FAT by any means.

Welcome to my world :) I did the same thing.. drops 50 or so and started talkin to women

 

And your confidence has changed.. the very first girl that showed interest in you boosted your ego and thats been happening ever since.. you are getting more confident cause girls are showing interest in you. thats what happens

 

Success breeds confidence.. confidence breeds success
