Weight(Who would of thunk it?) Anonymous
Greetings /fit/

First off, Fuck I love these new boards, which are mostly populated with people who are willing to try and help.

Back story.
Years 1-6 I am skinny, very athletic
Years 6-11 Got addicted to intranet(became fat)
Year 12 ridiculously hot girl finds me attractive, gives me a MASSIVE boost to become fit, Since about 5 months ago I have been working out slowly, but surely.

Problem, I have lost alot of weight, but due to the amount of fat i put on when I was younger I have fucking stretch marks. These have got to be the most defeating things about losing weight, It's a permanent reminder of my previous self.

I hate them so much, I wear a rashy whenever I go surfing, beach, pool. My girlfriend(The girl who gave me a boost) has never even mentioned them but I feel she knows they are there and finds them disgusting, I know everyone does and It makes me feel incredibly small.

So, A few questions.
A) What is the best way to get rid of these fucking marks? I know there is no 'real' way to get rid of them for 'good' but just to lower their visibility would make me feel better.

Develop self-worth not related directly to your appearance.

>but the moment I finish it I look at myself and see a fat dork who isn't helping himself, So i purge it up.
You have problems, get counseling.

You're a shitty troll. If you're not, get help in a mental health sense.

Tanning? How would that work? Wouldn't White stretch marks on a tanned body be more visible?

Lazer? Isn't this expensive and still not 100% positive to actually help.

Why would i write such a post provided with pictures just taken for trolling purposes?

I was thinking going to councilling but I'm pretty sure I'd walk out there with the same mentality.

tanning will darken the lines and blend it into your skin

There are a ton of creams out there, some of which help and a lot that don't. I can't see them in these pics so perhaps they are light, and just slivers or small lines. In some cases putting a bit of cocoa butter on them can help them to fade. They'll never completely go but you can made them smaller.

And then there's the old putting toothpaste on them, but I don't know if that works.

Good job losing weight, OP!

B) >>So i purge it up
That does not mean vomiting, does it?
If it does mean you really should change the way you think about it because that's not going to end up well.
Only good way to get the food you ate out of yourself is to burn it through excercise.
If you know you have eaten too much then make up for it in next excercise!

C) lolwut? can't see them.

Good luck!

Chances are you dont have a hot girlfriend, at least not in the sense where others would regard her as \"hot\".

Ignoring that fact,
1. You cant get rid of stretch marks, they are scars.
2. You have plenty of work to do before you \"become fit\".
3. Diet, Exercise and Rest.

Pics fukken saved. OP, you're perfect, my absolute favorite bodytype. Chances are your girlfriend thinks you're hot, too, or else doesn't care--why would she date you, otherwise? Don't purge, just do light cardio regularly.

OP, if you look in the mirror and expect to see a fat person, You will.

However, you expect to see someone who is in decent shape, you are more likely to see the truth.

Self Deception works both ways my friend.

I don't like it at all. Trimming is more than enough
>> Lil Dreamer !3GqYIJ3Obs!!FIK
1) you really do need counseling

2) lift weights and don't neglect the cardio

3) as>>2563said, tanning and laser are your best bets for the stretch marks. i have them on the sides of my chest due to growth and since i am a bit tanned, they blended in with my skin after about a year or so after they had turned white.

Vitamin E gets rid of stretch marks. Go find lotion with that as a main ingredient.

In my opinion trimming is best. Shaving takes too much hassle to keep it down and trimming is easy peasy.

YOU CANNOT GET RID OF MAN BOOBS

YOU HAVE TO LOSE FAT FROM YOUR ENTIRE BODY

YOUR BODY IS LIKE A LAKE, WHEN YOU DRAW WATER OUT OF IT, YOU TAKE WATER OUT FROM THE WHOLE LAKE, NOT JUST THAT ONE PART.

eh, deal with the stretch marks. You look to be in pretty damn decent shape, and they'll serve as a reminder to you not to let things get out of hand again. Every mark on your body should be a reminder of something that you've either overcome or will overcome.


Oh and don't do the purging thing, that shit's nasty. Work out a bit harder instead.

A) I can't actualy see them in the photos. Where are they? This may be a bit drastic, but have you considered a tattoo?

B) You have an eating disorder. Get help. Also note that you will be rotting your teeth due to the stomach acids in vomit and fucking your electrolye balance, therefore damagin your nervous system.

C) Most man-boobs aren't actual gynecomastia, just fat (pseudogynecomastia). It sucks. To help get rid of them, build your pecs and drop your body fat %. Do chest flyes, benchpresses and pushups.

Hope this is of some help.
