Have your preferences ever shifted as a result of your body having changed (ex: getting fit)?
Post Body

So I think I'm pretty versatile with regards to what body types I'm attracted to. Skinny, average, dadbod, fit, chub, muscular, beefy, …. I like all of those! I've always wondered though, if I was to become fit/muscular (which I'm trying to do) would what I'm attracted to change? I've been average/skinny fat for most of my life, though I did put on a bit of weight around two years ago. I've managed to lose said weight via dieting and exercise, but so far nothing has changed with regards to what I'm attracted to. I still like guys heavier than me for instance.

That being said, I've never really been hit up by guys that I would describe as fit/muscular. Skinny guys, average guys, dadbod guys, chubby guys, sure, but not fit/muscular ones. There is one who I chat with and exchange pics/vids sometimes, but honestly I feel somewhat embarrassed because I feel like he's way too out of my league. I keep thinking that one day I'll send him something from a less flattering angle and that'll be the end of it. It might just be in my head, but generally speaking I don't bother hitting any fit/muscular guys up, or even skinny ones for that matter, due to my body issues.

I feel like if I do get fit/muscular that I'd still chat with non-fit/muscular guys though. I actually quite like a bit of meat/flab (or whatever you call it) on guys, but I can't help but think that once I know just how much work I have to put into keeping a toned physique that that'll somehow change my preferences. That I'll become more judgey concerning a guys' bodies. I really hope I don't...
