Alcohol induced gynecomastia. (photos)

November 6, 2016
Asked By:hardrawq in Montreal, QC

Hi I am 6'0 and 198 pounds. From 2006-2015 I heavily abused alcohol and would have cycles of extreme binge eating followed by periods of extreme restriction and over exercise. 2014 until the end of 2015 was the most extreme binge drinking/eating cycle, causing me to go up to 300 pounds. Since January I've lost weight. Now I am noy sure whether my chest size is reversible, and if would have to be less than 180 lbs to see results. I welcome advice.
