Unintended Consequences of Massive Weight Loss

Ok Guys I don't quite know how to say this so I'm just gonna come out and say it. I keep sitting on my balls! It seems that with the receded thunder thighs and reduced fat pad in the pubic area, the sack hangs much lower than it used to. Everytime I sit down i squash the nads just beneath my now bony butt! Needless to say this causes discomfort and the embarrassing need to furtively glance around while reaching in to rescue the little fellers. Anyone else have this problem and have an suggestions? Maybe some drawers that work better than others?

Try some compression undergarments and see if that will help. It kinda keeps all the skin in and keep the "jewels" up front where they need to be.

https://www.ufmunderwear.com/ I use these! They work great.

I basically now use boxer briefs now not super long legged. But athletic types light compression. They definitely help.

I spread my legs and lower myself in the seat so they rest comfortably on the seat.

Dudes, thank you for sharing.

I just ordered some of these bad boys and am anxiously awaiting their arrival. I will review upon receipt!

@UpandAtom I really like them. They lift and separate your package so it doesn't cause any chaffing, pinching or embarrassing entrapment. I hope you like them as much as I do. I am interesting the the forth version. I own one of the first, 2 of the second and 2 of the third.

I managed to kick myself while lying down with my newly flexible legs. Takes some getting used to, that a new body.

I am currently living this nightmare.

Yes, this happens to me. They also get squished when I cross my legs. But I must say the bony butt is the most uncomfortable at this point.

Yeah I need to sit on cushions now, it's crazy

It became such a problem for me I went to a pain management doc. Turns out I have a misshapen coccyx. Starting physical therapy for it on Friday.


I don't have this issue yet, but I'm guessing it will happen in a year or so for me. But check out Saxx underwear. They are boxer briefs with a mesh lining to keep the goods good. Their slogan is "comfort for your balls"

Nah. Just pull them up when sitting. Been doing it for year.
