Puffy nipples. Yes, you heard me.

Right, I'm slowly starting to lose weight and I know I shouldn't be too concerned about my body image yet but something worries me. I have puffy nipples from being overweight for a few years. My question to everybody else who has had this problem (I don't know of any overweight person who hasn't had this problem) is does it go away with time? I'd really like to wear proper shirts when it's hot. I'm not extremely overweight and I've been exercising for four weeks now so I'm hoping over the next few months my chest will flatten a little more.
 
i'm not sure i know what u mean? if you are wearing a bra what does it matter if your nipples are puffy?? i don't think i'm getting it!
 
Haha. Sorry, I'm male. :)
And I guess you'd call them man-boobs. They're not that extreme, but it certainly looks that way in my eyes. The rest of my body also has flabber on it I need to get rid of. I'm just overly conscious about that area of my body.

Uhh...isn't atkins the low carb thing? If so, it SUCKS! XD
 
yea atkins does suck! lol. i found that out the hard way. so never try it but i dont really know if the nipple problem will go away because from what i've heard it's stretched skin. but by lowering your bodyfat that little bit of chest fat will come off. but i defintely know what yoour concern is and actually alot of people who have been or are overweight have this problem.
 
Ahh yes...Where it'd feel like water or something would be in your nipple and make it all oversized?
I had the same problem, but yes, it goe's away. Mine went away 16 lbs ago.
So keep on trucking, theres light at the end of the tunnel!(Light that will make your nipples not puffy anyway...)
 
the condition you have is most likely gyno. you'll have to go talk to your doctor about it. I have the same condition. Im guessing you have never been on anabolic steroids so Im guessin that this is something that took place when you hit puberty. the medical term is called gynecomastia look it up in your search engine so that you can find more info,pics ect. hope this helps unfortunately you're most likely looking at surgery to get this problem corrected. I would go to the doc to see if that's what you have.
 
Your talking about a condition where the man grows breast tissue and excess fat around the pectoral muscles. Similar to hypnogonadism.
That's not what we're talking about. ;)
 
well we'll see once he looses the weight if he still has it. I am not in a position to diagnose anyone but gyno could be the problem
 
The Puffy Nipples would be a good band name :yelrotflmao:
