Im going to try and put this delicately, do you ever feel pressure from men to not exercise to save that sweet sweet hiney? I know men don't get that.

    i think women get pressure from men and society for that matter not to loose a lot of weight because they won't be , shall we say, voluptuous?

    There wasn't junk in my trunk before exercising. The problem is foreign to my non-*kitten*.

    That's like thinking men feel pressure not to workout because so many women are attracted to a beer gut?

    I'm going to do what I want to do, but my SO is definitely sad about the size decrease. I seem to be losing more in my butt than in my belly, too. I think I had a better overall shape at 210lbs. So I know what you're talking about! It would be easy to let myself give up/regain because he liked my booty better before.

    Well maybe it's different for me still being a teenager, I see a lot where girls (around my age) want to be the opposite of voluptuous. It's all about the number on the scale. The closer to 100, the better. ..And maybe a few other things
    I already have "junk in the trunk" but what I want is for it to look nice and tight; tight butts look NICE (in my opinion)

    Doing squats makes your butt look better! I had no *kitten*, started doing squats in my aerobics class and toning up those muscles is my making my butt bigger, but in a good way. Not a fat, jiggly kind of way

    HAHA exact same here! I'd rather b thin & fit, than be chubby w/ a butt in all honesty. That is if I had a butt when I was chubby.

    Sorry. No.

    All the men that I know aren't into "voluptuous" women including my husband. I exercise for how it makes me feel, the way it makes my body look and of course to keep my husband interested and wanting me.

    who are these men?

    i find a fit, toned woman's derriere infinitely more attractive than a sloppy, fat, bouncy butt.

    I know what you're trying to say. I've always been curvy (which I love) and when I started to work out I was worried about losing my butt, but I just learned certain exercises that would enhance it while I kept dropping...biking and yoga, nice tone butt but still enough to grab lol

    No - but that is mainly because I have no phat a** to speak up. It's flat and pancake-y and sad. I do squats to give it some oomph, but there's really nothing there.

    I could care less what men think. After the jerks I was married to, it was a comfort to gain the weight so no one would look at me. When I am thin again, I can guarantee everyone that I am staying single and enjoying doing what I want, when I want. I really don't care if I am not noticed. I sure ain't losing weight for sex or love. My health is the only reason.

    the man in my life doesn't want me to lose more weight, he is a fan of my figure as it is right now, BUT he would not put pressure on me, and would support me in what I do, I am just working on toning now, rather than a big loss anyway, but he likes me quite a lot just as I am.

    I actually have a friend that hates the way I look now that I've lost weight...
    I don't understand it, I don't even like the way I look now (I'm about 238.)

    But yes there are creepy people that make their girlfriends feel bad about loosing certain body aspects, even if it means improving their health.
    Thankfully if I see it I run the other way like I'm on fire.
    Just because we're together does not make my body yours, so to speak.
    That last statement wasn't targeted at anyone specific, I just didn't know how else to say it. :p

    My man used to say not to lose the booty but when I dropped the fat and started toning it, he no longer said anything. :laugh: Just because you lose weight, doesn't mean you need to lose that butt. :tongue:
