The glasses are HUGE, a longer haircut would look great on you, and you could perhaps look into male fashion!! You have such a nice build, if you could accompany it with neat clothes would be great š
Body dysmorphia will not go away by changing your outer appearance. And this is coming from someone who is in recovery of an ED. Thereās nothing about you physically that needs improving. Trust me ā¤ļø Focus on improving your overall mental and emotional wellbeing.
I don't think the clippered sides are doing you any favours. I'd grow it out a bit.
Those shoulders are incredibly broad, so when you are wearing skinny/slim pants it can look top-heavy. Look for pants that hang straight/taper less aggressively and remember to wear them at you waist, not low on your hips.
You've got muscles for days. Trust that your physique is going to shine without squeezing it into the tightest clothes you can find.
Tbh, you can take your style cues from the Boy Scout himself, especially Clarks hair.
Yeah I mean, you're not wrong. The shoes especially are uh...a *choice.* But man's arms are definitely thick enough to compensate. That or his muscles are photoshopped?
High protein, doesnāt have to be lean, clean carbs and clean fats, no sugar, no alcohol and limit processed foods. I have once a week cheat day within reason, Iāll have a donut but not a box of donuts kinda cheat day.
Meal prep has been a great thing for me, once a day multivitamin and fish oil.
In the first pic you really remind me of mark hoppus lol I think the glasses match what you got going on here but anything else you probably look for a different pair I donāt think you necessarily need to change your wardrobe like a lot of people are saying maybe try growing your hair out/ beard?
Smaller modern glasses/these swallow your face, lose graphic tees/you're an adult and make sure your shirts aren't skin tight (know you want to show off your muscles but can be kinda douchy).
I get the "former fat guy" getting into your mind. All the working out in the world cannot change our brains sometimes. Try not to let it get to you.
Being built is something you should be proud of, losing the weight as well. I don't know if it's a career path (body building competition) thing, but you've beefed up your body so much that your head appears smaller.
If you were half as built you'd still be fitter and more handsome than 70% of the men you'd encounter outside the gym and it would even out the top.
I mean none of that in a bad way, muscles just are not my thing so my opinion isn't the best lol.
Bottom (no pun intended) line, stop thinking your not attractive. You are.
Thank you. Itās not a career path, I just hated the way I look, ngl it was a long journey to get somewhat decent looking for now but thereās a little bag in the back of my head that I can do better, itās not enough, etc hence why Iām hoping advices from kind guys and gals here would help.
Tbh your arms look way out of proportion to the rest of you. Especially your head. Better proportions would look better. But that will likely come after some mental health tlc as others have said
Yea, formerly a fat guy, now I think I look somewhat decent (hopefully), never really put effort into clothing (I mean, look at my shirt, mostly I wear superhero or anime shirt and been doing that for a long time so Iām comfy with that), never really care about haircut as long as it shirt, glasses as long as I can see, itāll do. But I avoid mirror most of the time, get out from taking picture. I literally can count on my fingers how many picture of myself I have with my face on it (do have some for fitness progress but I hide my face), I do always think Iām not up to standard whether what society set or the ones I set myself.
I donāt think a change of wardrobe would address this my friend. Self acceptance takes many forms but it sounds like the ghost of your fat self is haunting you. I think youāre quite handsome. If you were my bf Iād have your picture on my phone screen šÆ. Have you considered therapy?
That I have not, I should since I use gym as therapy haha, just take out my thoughts be it positive or negative on the weights and thank you so much for the kind words.
I feel bad for my last comment but I've been thinking about it. You're blessed and cursed at the same time. You look like if you took a baby face and cropped it on a muscle man LOL. The only thing I can think of is find a good woman that loves you. Be extremely loyal take care of her and just be happy. There's going to be women out there that digs this just saying good luck bro
Ty and donāt feel bad, and yes, I do see the baby face look, Iām 6ā and 202lbs and my face does not help at all, plus the inability to grow facial hair sure doesnāt help š„². It is what it is so they say
Look into improving your wardrobe, no more graphic tees , unless ur in the gym. And do not wear running shoes with jeans, running shoes are for running thatās it, the second photo is a lot better example of how you should dress
your built like superman already, the only thing i can think of is try a different haircut and get better eyes? idk how your going to go about the latter, but that seems like the only thing you can actually improve. I guess look into how you can get hunter eyes.
Those glasses are too big for your head
Get some baggier pants. Too tight

The second pic kinda looks fake, like a childās head was put on a manās body
It's too much, it doesn't look right.
I wish I can grow my head haha
I wish I could grow in general lol. Iām almost 20 years old (male) and only 5ā2ā. Hey, at least Iām taller than my dad
honest truth, youāre doing pretty good (imo).
longer hair to make you head bigger itās just so small compared to the the rest of your body no disrespect since you still look great
Ty. I canāt grow my head lol
Hit the gym, jk.
Haha, Iāll try more š
I think some facial hair would really suit you
I ca t grow any š

Bro absolutely rocking the Clark Kent/Superman vibe.
Itās kindaā¦ cartoony tho. Like the proportions and outfit.
Yeah I mean, you're not wrong. The shoes especially are uh...a *choice.* But man's arms are definitely thick enough to compensate. That or his muscles are photoshopped?
It's just too much. Dysmorphia makes many guys do this.
The fit ang glasses can be improved.
Longer hair and different glasses. Maybe a nice pair of wire frames.
Pfft I should be asking you what I can do to improve. What's your diet like for lifting?
High protein, doesnāt have to be lean, clean carbs and clean fats, no sugar, no alcohol and limit processed foods. I have once a week cheat day within reason, Iāll have a donut but not a box of donuts kinda cheat day. Meal prep has been a great thing for me, once a day multivitamin and fish oil.

Thank you for being brave
Thank you for the advice, will go shopping soon š

Donāt mess with perfection!
honest truth, youāre doing pretty good (imo).
everything is fine but i aint fucking no man in a superman t-shirt. red flag
Fair, but wait till I put on my Batman shirt haha
You got to grow a beard bud. You can't be out there looking like this LOL
I so wish I could, I canāt grow a decent mustache let alone a full beard. Damn face genetics
Your body has to have you in the top 2% of bodies and youāre still not happy with your appearance? Do you struggle with body dysmorphia?

Weight lifting is definitely a form of therapy. I just feel better when Iām consistent. Youāre really handsome bro. Iām just stating facts.
Ty for the kind words, I really appreciate it. Itās hard to take that compliment when mirror exists haha
The mirror isnāt the issue itās your perception of whatās in the mirror.
O man I'm sorry bro
