[1]#BodyImage It's not just for girls.* I didn't think I had an
  problem.* I just... dealt with it.* We talked about favorite
  superheros and dreamed of being them. Me?* I was already The
  FLASH.* Yeah.* Didn't want that nickname though.* I wanted The
  HULK.* I was already #1 runner every grade in grade school.* But
  that didn't mean anything.* I wanted BIG ARMS and throw cars
  around.* Why?* Because I didn't have them. Thanks to puberty,
  testosterone, Charles Atlas "get strong without weights" at home
  program [it works by the way - you pit one side of your body
  against the other - so darn simple!], I got the biceps I wanted.
  Did I feel better about myself once I got the muscles I dreamed
  of at 6.5 years old?* You bet I did. So yes, I understand body
  image issues.* I was lucky.* I found an answer.* But I was also
  lucky because I didn't have body image distortion issues.* I
  knew when my muscles were big enough.* I knew what I looked
  like.* Never felt fatter than I was.* Never felt skinner than I
  was.* I was... was what I was.* If I liked it, I kept it.* If I
  didn't like it, I changed it. But again - I was lucky.* Not
  everybody is able to work their way through things, so I
  sympathize with people who have distorted body
