Do I look fat?

This is me in swim shorts.

I'm going abroad next week, do you think I'll get any comments from friends? Should I keep a t-shirt on?

Thanks :smile:

Slightly chubby, that's from the worst angle though, show us from the front for a more realistic view

That's the worst kind for a man. It's along the lines of skinny fat.

- Too much simple sugars in your diet -

If I was you I'd wear a t-shirt with short sleeves as your arms are not bad. (If you're looking for ladies attention)

If just with the guys do whatever you feel confident in doing.

Would you say I looked quite big then as you said keep it on? I'm just thinking that if we all go into the sea, i'll be shirtless!

Going into the sea? Of course take the top off. Rock the body you have got with confidence and no one will even think to say anything.

I thought you were more along the lines of just strolling along the beach/ randomly in the streets.

You're not fat enough for it to be a problem, it's just disproportionately distributed as men put fat on around the stomach when exposed to simple sugars from snacks to beers.

If you're going into the sea, your stomach won't be above the water most of the time, so you should be ok.

Plus if you run to get into the sea

1) they won't see your stomach

2) you won't look like a pussy

:lol:

You're skinny fat to be honest. Not fat, not thin :smile:

Be confident, t shirt off :biggrin:
