I, unfortunately, am rather fat (19st), and im 20 (21 mid October). I also have moobs.
I know there will be a lot of sniggering, and your welcome to do so, but I ask - do you think my tits* are because im fat, or because of this here gynaecomastia?
*You heard me! TITS!

You would have to lose some weight in order to find out, I'm afraid.

I just finished fitting my new chinup bar, and along with my weights and daily exercise routine, it shouldnt be long before I know.

As muscle is heavier. Try some aerobic exercise like running, or step
And eat right, obviously. Get some support from friends. Female friends are especially useful at this as we've all tried weight loss at some point.

Ive have anxiety disorder from the age of about 15, so I didnt have any friends, and now I dont have the 'skills' of meeting people that others take for granted.
Which is also why im fat - I dont go out to do anything, so its lack of exercise.
And I dont mind weighing the same, as long as most of its muscle ;)

It's already working over time. Cycling places (like to work)works for me.
If you join a fitness class or weightwatchers group, you'll lose weight, meet people, and lots of them will be female. Triple bonus!

Scientific bit, as far as Im aware;
Testosterone and estrogen are pressent in both men and women
When you drink it increases levels of testosterone. This makes people aggressive and horny
The body tries to keep the levels of testosterone and estrogen at the same proportion so produces more estrogen. This gives you moobs.

...that's what we scientists technically call bollocks. Alcohol gives you moobs because it's calorific. You become aggressive because it makes you uninhibited (you'll notice that naturally sanguine people do not become more aggressive).
