So I'm channel surfing and end up at MTV'S 'i want a famous face' and there is a 24 year old kid who wants to look like arnold schwartzenegger. he says he's been working out for less than a year and has seen changes in his arms and upper back- but he has "man tits" so he's going to have a breast reduction and lift. he claims that he has "gynoclamastia" sp.
Did anyone else see this kid? It just started and i have to go shower but i want to see what he looks like at the end.
don't get me wrong, i barely workout, but i'm also not getting plastic surgery because i have jiggly parts.
I watched that show once when I was down in Florida on vacation. These two really goofy looking brothers had extensive cranio-facial plastic surgery in order to look more like Brad Pitt. Admittedly, they looked better after the surgery, but the premise of the show really bothered me. The people taking part can't possibly be psychologically healthy.
I love this show, its like a train wreck. The brothers were awesome. I really thought they were going to start making out at one point.
Tonights episode was very not train wreck like, which sucks. The guy was pretty normal and was just bummed about his man boobs.
In his situation I would have probably had the surgury also. If its actual gyno, which it definatly appeared to be, no amount of workout out is going to get rid of them, they might shrink a bit, but they will still be there just like a chick wouldn't lose her boobs. I have a small case, and that sucks and really nothing will change that, but its not nearly bad enough to bother with a surgury.

I saw the show tonight. The guy did have gyno. He also had quite a gut on him that he needs to lose to look better(like Arnie). From what they showed, it looked like he was doin a lot of isolation exercises and machines. He was also chowing down on a hamburger at TGI Fridays. To me it seems like he was really into looking like Arnie, but doesnt have a clue on the right way to workout/eat.
His surgery results were pretty good....defintley got rid of the titties.

Train wreck is an apt description. You want to look away, but you can't.
Those two brothers were a sad spectacle. They're convinced that they're going to be movie stars now that they've had their operation. My guess is that they will still be waiting tables at age 75.

It was on the TV during the early bird special at Rascal House. [/quote]I was having the 'Eugeleh Special' that Rascal House is known for. [/quote]Gifilte Fish, Matzo balls, and pickles....nothing like that to fuel a leg workout!
One that was on last week was of a young woman (early twenties?) who wanted to look like Carmen Electra. She was attractive in her own right, and, quite frankly, didn't look as good after the surgery. She got a little tuck, some face work and a boob job.
I just don't get it. She was attractive and had a boyfriend, but there was obviously something wrong usptairs. Isn't there a scientific name for people with a bad self image?

I thought she was pretty smokin' before, I didn't see the after.

Some @$$hole at work had GB surgery a few months ago, and damn if he doesn't whine about what he can't and has to eat every time I see him. Funny thing is that he's skinny as a rail now, but his face is still really fat. Prick.

I just finished watching one where the kid wanted to look like Ricky Martin so he would have the courage to ask a girl he had been friends with for 6 years if she would want to start dating. After surgery, he found out she was dating someone.

Speaking of which (while we're on the subject), have any of you considered plastic surgery?
To be honest, I have and I still do toy with the idea from time to time. Actually, I'm mostly interested in having an indentation in my face fixed where a dermatolgist butchered me as a child.
