Hey listen to Olly. I'm 69, 5'11" weigh 250 pounds have a 50 inch waist. Haven't seen my little guy in while and seriously couldn't care about my image anymore. Now that I have described my features of today, I remember being much more slender and fit when I was in the military, if there was any self consciousness it would have been then because I had some concerns about what others thought. Today couldn't care less and it appears nude friends couldn't either. Having too much fun naked today to care.

Steve in Kona is right. You "get over it" ( ie, your self-consciousness) by just getting naked with other naked people. Once you take the plunge you discover the change in body awareness and acceptance. Good luck. Enjoy your bareness.

My shape is 'kinda' what it is...I'm still active...still work 10 hour days but my shape is 'shifting'. I"m not too concerned...I'm enjoying older life and want to continue. Now...just where did I leave that carton of Breyers?

What about a chiropractic check up also? Recent xrays showed my neck going forward more, and back curvature worse - after traveling for a bit for work - so I need to hit the chiropractor a couple times a week - I literally get taller as I go through chiropractic - so if you stand straighter and are a bit taller - then it stands to reason your gut will look different also -

Most nudists are welcoming people. First time you meet another nudist is like you've known each other lol your lives.
