Why do so many guys look horrible on prep?

[HeyMan999]

Why do so many guys who claim to be negative and on prep look like they are losing a ton of weight in the face and body? Is that a common side effect? Or do most lie online? I know of a few people who lie but everyone who claims to be on prep has a certain look if you know what I mean…….what is going on? Maybe try a condom.

Do you have some examples?

Correlation is not causation.

What you may be observing is guys who also correlate with meth use or a number of other things 

Are you simply looking for a profile that is a little plump and therefore your observation is biased?

Dude, I’ve been on Prep for I can’t remember how long (5+ years) and I wish weight loss was a side effect. If my face has thinned out I don’t see it and no one has commented that I look like I have lost weight. I think @PhileasFogg may be correct when he likens the weight loss you’re observing to use of other drugs or other factors at play that may be causing weight loss.
