the anger you get when people call you skinny when u are just cut.
I hve been out several times and people say something about "being skinny" . I’m sure anyone reading this feels what im saying. I had this encounter last night..Someone said, " last time i saw u , you were blown up, now you are skinny"……I know it isnt a huge deal, but it runs through you when u work your ass off in the gym and someone says you are skinny..
I GUESS WE SHOULD JUST TAKE OFF THE SHIRT AND LET THEM SEE WHATS UP HUH? HAHA..

Hey at least your in shape, my favorite is when people say there in shape, and there just skinny. Some people don’t realize the work that goes with the cutts, and muscles.

I am HUGE in my mind, lol…I feel your pain, I am 2 weeks out from a comp, dropping BF (no idea what I am at right now), but will come in 100% better than I ever have been.

I know exactly what your talking about. When I was 190lb 25%bf, everybody said :"wow you’ve become so fat!", now that i’m 155lb (5′8") and 14%bf the say "omg, you’re so skinny!" I guess you just have to disregard peoples comments and just be happy with what you’ve accomplished. Cheers

I just happened to stumble across your page.
People actually call you "skinny"?, seriously?, are they in need of an eye exam?. A skinny person is the same size from under their arms all the way down to their ankles, and frail, very frail. I would have tell those people that they need to look at you again, because you’re not skinny and you’re not the lesat bit frail, you have bulges in all the right places……thats not a come-on, just a compliment….ok?
Maybe the next time someone says to you that you are skinny, just start laughing like it was the funniest thing you have ever heard, then just stop laughing all of sudden, and look at them and say, OH!, you were serious?, it will take them a few minutes to realize that they have just been politely insulted.
Trust me my friend, my Uncle is a well respected psychiatrist here in the North Texas area, I have picked up a few things from him over the years and one of the things is how to play with someones mind……especially when that person is being an insulting ass to someone like you who has made a promise/commitment to yourself to create a better body.
Sorry, I can get off on a tangent sometimes, but I go through similar things at my office. If you read my profile then you would understand that I am in the process of losing weight, and back before I decided to change my life and body, people at work would tell me that I was fat right to my face and then at lunch time the same people would ask me if I wanted to go have a burger and fries with them. I now consider those people to be hypocrits. Now that I have lost just over 40 pounds and still going for another 20, and am on a version of the Zone Diet (which is working very well for me) they still offer me candy, soft drinks, cake, pie, you-name-it. I just look at them and laugh. They ask what I am laughing at. I say, I have made a descision to change my body, and there isn’t ANYTHING that will tempt me with to make me go back to the way I was.
Sorry, but like I said, I can rant sometimes.
I’ll end with this, if you decide to get more muscular, or cut up even more, whatever you decide, then I wish you all the luck in the world with it.
You are the kind of person that I would be proud to call "friend".
Have a great evening,
Mike

I get that all the time. I’m 6 foot and anytime I decide to get my 6 pack back or to cut up a bit more inevitably someone says "wow youre skinny" I USED to be super skinny and I USED to be super fat so now that I’m in great shape and trim, everyone says I’m skinny. It’s like HELLO! V TAPER, 6 PACK! Not to mention I have a better body shape than the so called "big guys" Yea they’re big but ever notice the loose shirts they wear to hide their beer gut? Oh you didn’t know, then shut your mouth and talk to me when you know what you’re talking about. I always get an inner laugh when the same person who said I was skinny will see me in the gym doing 2-3 times the amount of weight they’re doing even though they have 10-20 lbs on me.
