it is because your body is slumped when you sit down...
Does it matter though?

most people have a little fat roll when they sit down, unless they r real low body fat.

I know how you feel, but people arn't that critical if you look good. With the weight you lost even if you look "fat" when sitting down people won't think that way. I know, because I still am fat, yet I get compliments all the time about how "skinny" I am. Don't worry yourself about it. Your doing great, keep working at it and I'm sure this feeling will pass.

dude, relax. its just skin. it happens to everyone. try stretching back and you'll see why you need that skin. if ur that concerned about it, sit up straight.

What the hell.. Everybody looks like that. That's like saying your dick looks small when you're holding ice cubes to it.
Just going through the motions is one of the most disadvantageous things you can do.

If it bothers you that much just lower your body fat further...

dude if someone says you look fat when your sitting, obviously that person has some issues of themselves. if it happens
a) flex some ab muscles
b) tell them they look fat when there standing
c) (my favorite) start a fight
later
georgethe headaches, bodyaches, hunger, and loss of time, was 100% worth it. I'll NEVER be that fat again

well nobody has said im fat its just i think they will mayb think it because i used to be 50lbs of fat heavier and i still dont feel good about myself , and also my question about bodyfat % 14% is with 2 pack flexed or unflexed , i thought flexed but not to sure

im at 8% bodyfat, and when i sit, I have a little roll, but its just skin. assuming ur talking about slouching. when i sit up straight u can see my abs.
