BigBellyDude:
I've been wanting to go out shirtless for ages to show off my belly but I always feel scared to. is their any tips anyone can give me to help with this?
As someone else said, baby steps. This is a journey with one step forward, two steps back, another step forward, another step back … y’know.
It’s got to be 10-12 years I’ve been gaining, losing (usually not deliberately), gaining and back and forth. When I realized I love being fat, AND no one gave a rat’s ass about it, I became even more confident about showing off my belly, and even my face.
I’ve had a full beard for about 10-12 years and wanted to see how fat my face got. I shaved down to a stache and goatee, and was not disappointed at how blubbery my face and double chin got. I’ve since grown my beard back because that’s who I am … an awesome tattooed bearded fat man. 😂😂😂
As I got more comfortable and confident in being fat and showing off, I began wearing my pants and belts tighter so my belly hung over, not being concerned that my shirt buttons were straining (it was even a bit of a turn on when one popped open 😈). I learned to not (try to) suck in my belly … like that was even possible anymore. 😄
So yeah, it can take a little time and patience. Be kind to yourself, and on the off-chance other people are not, look at them, shrug, say “oh well …” 🤷🏻♂️ and change the subject.
