Hello from Vancouver, Canada

Hey guys, I am Johnny. A 33 year old guy from Vancouver, Canada (Burnaby, to be exact).

I have signed up for a membership at this forum for a couple of years but I have always been a spectator. I only read posts, never posted. Now I decide to participate in this great speedo community!

I have always loved speedos since I was a kid, when speedo was still a norm in the early-90's. As I entered puberty, I was starting to get self-conscious about my body and board shorts became the norm. So I shamefully started wearing board shorts outside of my speedos whenever I hit the pool.

Staying fit has been a challenge in the past decade. I didn't keep up with a healthy lifestyle since I graduated university. My weight once peaked at 265 lbs!!! Although I am quite tall (6'1"), it's still very unhealthy. After numerous fail attempts to lose weight, I finally lost 30-something pounds in recent months, sitting at 230-ish now. I have also won a silver medal at a fitness challenge at my gym, right before the COVID pandemic. I have rewarded myself two pairs of Budgy Smugglers, which I am planning to rock them at the pool and the beach one day.

I am planning to let go at least another 20 lbs. I wish I can add swimming to my workout routine. Wearing speedos and look good become my motivation. I hope I will succeed with encouragement from you guys!

Here are a couple of somewhat racy pictures of me in speedos. Hehe. They were taken 12 pounds ago. :P

I am sure I will look better in the coming months!

Hi Johnny!

It is great that you are participating in the forum!

As you know, if you like swim briefs, you are in the right place!

Welcome to the boards, mate. I did notice the "tent" in your speedos in your avatar. Great idea! :P
