When Smacks said he went back to his hotel room and cried was so awful. He's actually such a handsome guy, listening to him talk about his experiences would break your heart 💔
As a 42 year old man who has felt like this since I was a teenager I often come back to this video and it really helps knowing it's not just me that feels like this. Fair fucks to you for coming out talking about it
That’s exactly how my wife feels, she used to be a size 14 and now she is a size 8 and still is concerned with her weight plus she’s quite tall for a female and to be honest she looks ill with all the weight loss, I make sure she eats well but as Johnny says it’s in the mind , I try and tell her we are all different and there is no normal, as long as you’re healthy and at ease with yourself then you’re fine
this was definitely my fav episode/topic so far. Thanks to smacks for being so vulnerable and sharing his experiences. So important!! Fair play to yous
What an amazing podcast👏👏 fair play Johnnie smacks for being so vulnerable and speaking about ur insecurities. Ye are fantastic the way ye are❤ Love u guys
The best podcast I've heard, everything that Smacks said really resonated. So, you're not crazy and highlighted so many issues that people deal with regarding body image. Bravo.
Honestly as someone who also struggles with body weight and EDs seeing this has really helped, am really surprised that Freddie Flintoff struggles too will have to check out the documentary, but knowing other people suffer too helps???
This podcast is so relevant to me. I was constantly being body-shamed by people who I thought were my friends. Decided to do something about it & now living a better lifestyle & the weight loss journey has begun, I have lost 2 stone in a matter of months & I use the body-shaming directed at me in the past to motivate myself.
I listend to this and i was like shit somone did and is going trew the thing im going threw like every thing he said had and is happening and just thanks for talking about this
Can relate.. I think he's so handsome, I love a man with some meat on him . It's not about looks, people who insult about your looks or body are insecure about their own, and are projecting onto u. Keep doing what you are doing 👑
I'm a PT and I pretty much train every or most days in some shape or form(purely for mental health) And im self conscious about my body. The thing is if someone makes a negative comment about someone else it says everything about the person making the comment and nothing at all about who its being said to. Well done for discussing this topic. I dont think its any worse or better for men or women, I just think men are only making it normal to talk about recently. Brilliant podcast lads 👏👏👏 I'm in!!!!
This is the first time for me seeing the 2 Johnnies on video, and the honest truth of what went through my mind in the first few minutes was, "Oh wow, Smacks sure is handsome; look at his beautiful features. I love that Nike jacket he has on; what a beautiful build he has, he must have so many women after him!" So imagine my surprise to hear this lovely dear lad talk more about body image. I learned a lot about how even men too can be misled by people's comments in society and take some really sideways thinking on board and suffer for it. Bless you Smacks for airing this as it's likely given many pause for thought in our own relationship to our own selves, and to uncover where these things come from and to be kinder, far kinder and gentler to ourselves and certainly to others as we go along. Couldn't love you 3 more! Such good humans; good solid folk over there. :)
I have to keep applauding the 2 of ye lads for wading into the waters of yer feelings about yer body images during then and now....and for Vegas..suites are covered in mirrors and glass that shines brighter than a mirror! I feel men can get away with more than women as we get older..fecks sake..double standard..I tell ye .. D.
Great conversation. Smacks I feel like this every day hate pics being taken hate way I look. I know exactly how u feel. I hide my body with loose clothing as I would never wear fitted or tight clothing. I remember when I got married n my wedding pics came bk I cried I hated the way I looked kept thinking of how big and ugly I looked. It's hard to deal with feeling this way. Hopefully I won't always be like this.
Fair f*clking play to ya Smacks for being so open about a subject that a lot of men go through. I went through a similar thing when I was younger and was swimming competitively. Can you imagine being a poor tubby 13 year old going through puberty stuffed into speedos whilst everyone around you looked set for the next Olympics. On land I moved similar to a sloth but in the water I was like an elephant seal. The worst day for me was when we were standing at the side of the pool waiting for our race when the lifeguard poked me in the belly and said 'If you hold that in any longer you're going to pass out'. I went home and didn't eat for 3 days. For me, where I found a place of acceptance about my body shape was the first week of Freshers week in college during the Clubs and Socs Open Day when one of the lads from the rugby club stopped me and asked if I wanted to join. I'd always liked to play rugby but feared of being by the same people who I swam with. It was a pretty close knit group. In college though I wasn't going to let the past haunt me. I found my place in the second row on the Freshers team and I felt like I was part of a team. That's what I love about rugby, your size doesn't matter they'll find a spot for you on the team. Again fair play Smacks, stay safe mate Paul
Know I’m late to the party but smacks your hitting some strings with me I was obese most of my life went from 22 stone to 12, back up now to 16 and these points your making are really making me feel represented I suppose is the word, good man smacks
I’ve never related so much to a topic, everything smacks said is spot on as to how you can feel about yourself at certain points with your body, Your a legend smacks, A great discussion about a sensitive topic, Fair play lads.
Funny you should day this... I was always opposite end of spectrum being really skinny like borderline underweight during youth and would've done anything to fill the jersey I was in. Now I'm 'normal' weight and go to gym but still see myself as a skinny person and struggle to put on weight still! Just mad to have both sides of the spectrum
Jesus smacks that was me down to the ground growing up....at least you got to play minor(😂)....it shamed me not to do my best,so it affected me big time...still those and I'm just shy of 45.... p.s. I cried too when Tipp won in 2019
Fair play to ya smacks, the balls on ya fella, nice to know im not the only one who feels that way, though to be fair someone could look at me funny and id think im fat in my head. if i knew whyd id change it now but to know there are people who think in a similar way is nice at least. Keep her up ladds x
In 4 days I've watched episodes 1-18 of the pod and both seasons of T2J Do America and this is the most relatable I've seen yee. The off/on weight and still thinking your fat is pure me. Sure look you're a ride now Smacks. Keep it up bai 😁
Lads fair ducks to yeh . I’d love more of them topics like that cause I struggle with weight and it’s great to hear smacks in the same boat as me Fair play to yeh smacks spoken very well
Geez lads what a conversation fair play for the honesty I followed me age to me weight 17 17 st 18 18 st 20 n so on at my heaviest 23 1/2 st lost a bit to 20 but now goin back up n up even though being an active multi drop driver and active cycling to and from work 11m round trip a day chopping firewood and all stuff round garden But sure I just love food I can definitely understand the bits about having a bad relationship with food it is my biggest problem full stop and I just cant change it however much I try Now I dont mind my weight or my size but it would be nice to be slimmer people do look at you differently however much they say they dont smacks mate I'd be having a party if I had your figure ur grand as u are
I am the exact same. Im not really really big but im carrying a few pounds and im an XL and XXL in tops and ive felt like this all my life and i always try to lose weight and then i just go back to food i just dont know what to do
Respect lad for getting this off ya chest and obvious that your talking to those males and females alike out there and God knows a lot put an end to there (silent personal misery ) that could have been helped.. but this situation wouldn't have been as much as an issue by the numbers historically .....the whole country needs to look at its self in regards to the trap that big global food industries/advertisers has got us alll into whatta conundrum..... we have to eat .....bastads..... Good talk lads....
Johnny - the rude Dubai/Dublin guy commented on your weight because he was jealous of your 'The 2 Jonnies' success. There is no other reason for insulting people like that - particularly if he didn't know you personally - except you are doing great in life and it's killing him to see you in such a good place. Keep up the great podcasts- I love them!!
I’d be the same Johnny even buying normal clothes go into jack Jones and it’s all slim fit clothes like wdf I just like to eat a dacent bit of fodder 😅👌🏼
Jonny smacks has the same build as my brother dark hair and all. I think it’s his genetic my brother never stops with work kids football rugby and he’s the same with the weight
This was the best clip of all time on the podcast. The balls smacks had to talk about how he felt in those situations was amazing. Hon lads
This was without a doubt the greatest conversation on the podcast. Fair play for having the balls to discuss such a sensitive topic.
When Smacks said he went back to his hotel room and cried was so awful. He's actually such a handsome guy, listening to him talk about his experiences would break your heart 💔
