The Great Arse Face Experiment (Or - Does Haemorrhoid Cream really help with your turkey neck?)

  • Popular Post

I was recently having a discussion with a Personal Trainer (PT) mate of mine.

He was asking me about the changes I'd noticed with my body since losing my 230 lbs (so far)..
I told him about my 'deflated balloon belly'...

He laughed...

I told him about the 'bat-flaps' of skin under my upper arms that slap against me sometimes when I move...

He laughed...

I told him about my two sizes smaller feet...

He laughed..

The I told him about what was REALLY p*ssing me off...

My 'turkey neck'...

You see, I had a great big bullfrog type head...

Neck really...

I was one puffed-up-canetoad lookin' dude...

I mean, have a look at this - gallery_254366_23096_131367.jpg

As you can see, I've kept the beard in an effort to cover up the under-chin carry on...

Actually, that pic on the right was in October last year, so I've lost a little more from there now...

I'm in a new job now, so I'm decidedly more 'neat and tidy'..

Anyway, back to the 'roid cream thing...

My PT mate was telling me that a lot of the female body builders he knows use the 'roid cream to smooth their bits (no, not THOSE bits) when it comes to comp time...

He reckoned that if I grab a tube or two and have a crack at applying it regularly, it may just smooth and tighten my biggest uncovered embarrassment...

So, here's the sh*t -

Beginning Monday, I'll be applying the Doot Cream twice a day...

It'll be post shower in the morning and evening...

Over the weekend, I'll try to take a decent pic of the affected area...

If I can do so, I'll post it on Monday, then each Monday after I'll post updated pics to see if there's any difference...

I'll also be trying some 'neck yoga sh*t' that I just stumbled on when I googled "wobbly neck skin"...

I hope to be able to shave the beard off (or some of it) by my birthday in July (18th for all those planning gifts)...

So, if anyone is interested, stay tuned and we'll see how we go...

Of course, if anyone has already tried this, please feel free to chime in and let me know how you went...

Thanx for reading all the way to the end...

Assuming you did...

Jason

Are you following me around?

You seem to be everywhere I go...

Wait...

Am I stalking you?

Oh sh*t!!

Maybe I am!!!

Oh...

And thanx for making me Google 'kotex pad'...

That was a wonderful visual for my Saturday morning...

I'm still chuckling over the fact that you had to google "Kotex Pad". Oh! Wait!-- I bet you're a virgin---right?

I knew it. Cool!! :)

Firstly, I'm a boy - we've very little use for such an item...

Secondly, it was the term 'kotex' that threw me. I'm not familiar with that brand or reference..

Here we simply use the term 'pad' and everyone knows what's doing..

Or 'panty liner'...

Or 'maxi-pad'...

And as far as the 'virgin' comment goes...

Yes, yes I am...

I'm as pure as the dri...

Bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...

Never mind...

Still needed: the selfie with the "panty liner" wrapped under your chin and attached to your ears----oh! don't forget the roid cream. --could be the next record setting selfie. The roid cream will work wonders for you "waddle". Sure will... ;)

Thanx for the props...

Will you be posting 'arse cream' pics as well?

We can start a whole new website...

recoveringfattiesarsecreamexperiment.com

Or something....

First of all congrats on your amazing success!!

Now back to the arse cream... So glad you are going to be our guinea pig and give this a try. I am interested to see if it works. I have a bit of a turkey neck myself that I would love to see go bye bye. I keep wanting to try it on my under eyes but never remember to buy it.

You never know until you try

I wasn't neglecting you, I promise...

I was just saving you til now...

Firstly, I'm glad you enjoy what I put out...

It's nice to be appreciated...

As I'm sure you know, sometimes the words flow freely, yet other times, one can get into quite a state when looking for the right words...

Your point re the long term use of this is certainly valid...

While I'd like to think that arse cream would solve all of my woes, I'm pretty sure it will be a stop-gap type thing until I decide whether or not surgery is warranted...

At this stage, the 'experiment' is more of an attention seeking little hobby than anything too medical...

This should be ok for you, as you've pointed out quite clearly that you're "no doctor".

If you'd like, you can run a 'bat-wing' experiment in conjunction with my arse face one...

We can be non-doctors together...

How 'bout it?

Anyway, thanx for taking the time to reply...

It really does warm my (frozen) pea sized heart to feel all the 'love'...

Suuuuuure...that's why it took SEVENTEEN more posts for you to get around to me! Oh yes. I went back and counted. ;)

I don't think anyone will deny your mad attention-seeking skills. Your list of stalkers seems to be growing...

I don't know about this one. Unlike you, I'm not sure I'm brave enough to be posting any kind of flabby skin pics. Not even in the name of science. If you want to see what's under my clothes you'd best...well...nevermind. After all, we've only known each other a few weeks. :blush:

Oh my beautiful @

It was not my intention to ignore you, especially for so many posts...

Truth be told, I wanted to make sure I worded my response to you just right..

Alas, it seems I may have squandered my opportunity to make a good impression...

This is something that I will eternally regret...

My list of stalkers?

I have no stalkers...

Just friends who've not yet introduced themselves to me, yet seem to be wherever I go and comment on things I say...

But friends nonetheless...

I will admit to being an attention seeker tho...

I may not always gain the attentions of those from whom I seek it, but in this instance, it seems to have worked...

I'll not attempt to coerce you into sharing your 'flabby skin pics'...

I'm more than happy to report my findings back here and be the 'guinea pig' which was mentioned in another post...

And regarding my wanting to see "what's under your clothes"...

What sort of guy do you take me for???

(Maybe don't answer that...)

Feel free to hang around...

I'd like to fly too...

But I think these 'wings' are more penguin than bat...

@@KindaFamiliar

Aww. Funny AND sweet. Alright, I admit it...I MAY be stalking you a little.
