Is a little extra stomach fat a deal breaker/turn off?

[Anonymous]

I'm supeeeer self conscious about my body at times. I'm not 'fat' or anything, I'm 'skinny' but most peoples standards(I'm a pant size 2 or 3) and I work out a lot but what bothers me most is my stomach. The rest of me is really toned and I have like the boniest collar bones in the world so I can sort of "hide" my stomach insecurities and everyone still thinks I have a great body because the rest of me is toned. My stomach though is just ugh, it's so far from being toned or attractive in my opinion. It looks flat when I stand but when I sit or anything it gets gross looking? And I have these like . . . rolls I want gone? Now I'm sort of seeing this boy and I know he thinks I'm really attractive but I'm worried if he sees me without a shirt on it won't be what he expected and he'll be disappointed or turned off? I know if I keep working out it will get better but I'm still worried? Guys do you find a little unexpected tummy fat unattractive?

Almost everyone has at least a little bit of belly fat, we're only human. Anyone who considers that a deal breaker needs a dose of reality :P Besides, you're your own worst critic. It probably seems more noticable to you than it really is :)

We are skinny fat, aren't we?

If you want a more toned stomach, then work it out with weights a few times a week. The muscle will fill it in and reduce the jiggly fat there. Replace some of your cardio with that instead.

Are you seriously asking if a size 2 or 3 is skinny enough to be attractive? That is no issue at all to be worried about.

You're a size 2 or 3 and worried if you're fat? You've got NOTHING to worry about!

Would rather have fat on your tummy than on your thighs or butt...

Nope, its called being healthy.

And smokong cigarettes is called unhealthy. I see mucular men who tries to burn the fat on their stomach for health smoke cigarettes. Why not just say it is not about looks, it is about looks.

Why not just say it is not about health. It is about looks.
