Why are we so small and fat?

[jpk]

I woke up one January morning six years ago weighing 20 lbs more than my HS graduation weight, 120 lbs. Being 140 lbs as an alpha male mentality sucks green donkey dick. Honestly, it was relatively easy to get bigger and stronger once I figured a few things out. Bottom line, people treat me way better at a solid looking 220 lbs. I'll never go back.

Interesting... I'm probably in the minority in the precious little I care about what people think of me. I shave ... sometimes. I wear ratty clothes. I don't pay attention to styles. But get me in front of a mirror and the perfectionist and artistic side comes out. I care what I think and strive to please that part of me.

funny, im sort of the same. absolutely obsessed and sometimes delusional about how i look when it comes to my body, but cant give a shit about anything else.

i shave my head so i dont have to deal with hair, dress like a fucking homeless person and choose jobs based on my ability to wear jeans and a t-shirt.

prepping for competition, im more convinced that this is a form of eating disorder lol

A. Got called names like shorty, but not bullied much, except a couple incidents that were not repeated.
B. Yep. 5'6".
C. Hard time because I was shy and focused on other things, not because I was short, puny or ugly. Lol

A, never picked on, was is a few fights but nothing major. Some I was on the offensive and a few the defensive.
B, Average. 5'10+ barefoot. Most people think I'm 6 foot because I have good posture.
C, I had no problem attracting women (or fellers for that matter) but had very little interest in physical relationships untill I was in my late teens/early 20s.

A. Yes, but not severly. I think a lot of us got teased throughout school. Sometimes I was the teaser too, or bully.
B. I'm 5'10, but being so round made me look short.
C. I had the biggest crush on a girl named Allyson in highschool. Not good with the women back then, nor today :P. I'm blessed to have such an awesome wife ( thank you Jesus ).

I just cut off more than a foot of my hair off. Still have a ponytail, pulled back, but i'm thinning now and i'm going to start going really short. I'm sure i'll look tougher when I do ( whoopty doo ).

A. Only in grade school and only until I threw a punch. I was a late-bloomer and usually the shortest one in the class.
B. 5'10"
C. Somewhat. Didn't gain full confidence until I started MMA and then things changed.

A.) I was the nerd and the cool kid who got all the chicks. I taught all the jocks and chicks the easy way through chemistry, Cal, algebra, biology, you name it.
B.) 5'8 130# in hs.
C.) I never had a hard time with chicks. I had all the coke, weed, and booze... Plus I was smart as hell, so I used that to my advantage... Study dates every other night at my house with different ladies throughout the week.
