| Weight Loss | what are your hip measurements? and what size pants do you wear? | Jul 21 2008 00:05 (UTC) |
30 |
Apparently I'm 32 inches around my hips where I wear my jeans, but I almost always buy a 28 in jeans. :| |

True. I did a lot of walking while I was with him. I didn't really sleep any less, but the time I usually spend sitting around at night was spent moving around more and talking. :] |

Congratulations! I was a 34 waist in men's (I'm a guy... lol) at my biggest and I'm a 30 or a 29 waist now depending on the brand/store. I pulled out some old jeans of mine that I packed away and put them on and watched them fall off of me. It was such an amazing feeling. I couldn't believe I was ever actually that big. |

I'm Sam. I'm 17 and transsexual. I was born biologically female but identify 100 percent as male. I've been on testosterone for almost a year now and hopefully I'll be having chest surgery in the next year (it's very expensive and not covered by insurance and my family is very poor).
I'm also gay. I like other boys. |

| Weight Loss | Another 10-15lbs group | May 23 2008 21:13 (UTC) |

I have another 17lbs to go but do you think I could join in anyway? It's close! I really want to get rid of it by the end of August so I can be 130. I'm 147 right now. |

| Weight Loss | i loathe my upper arms! anyone else? | May 23 2008 19:57 (UTC) |

I HATE my upper arms. Luckily they were the first thing I noticed to start getting smaller when I started losing weight, but they are STILL there and I am still 17lbs from my goal weight so I'm hoping they just go away 17lbs from now. >:[!
I just avoid tight sleeves right now. Luckily I have a small frame for a boy and most guys shirts even in size small are not tight at all around my arms so it's not that difficult. |

Junk food tastes fabulous to me. :/ The only thing is the guilt afterwards. |

| Weight Loss | when do you start buying new clothes? | May 23 2008 04:38 (UTC) |

I am addicted to clothes so I usually just find things on sale that I like. I'm holding out another 18lbs until I get some expensive clothes. :x |

| Vegetarian | Switching to Vegetarian, How do I get enough protein? | May 21 2008 23:07 (UTC) |

I'd venture to say most people get way too much protein in their diet. As long as you eat healthy foods and a wide variety of them you should be fine. I'd think iron would be more helpful to concentrate on. |

| Weight Loss | But you're so skinny... | May 20 2008 18:14 (UTC) |
65 |
I get it, and I still got it when I was 175lbs at 5'6". I have some overweight friends that don't understand how or why they got to be overweight and seem to resent me for my ability to get my weight under control. To them, if I'm not jiggling all over, I must be skinny. Even now I'm still 19lbs overweight and they complain that I watch what I eat too much and fail to notice the fact that I've lost 25lbs. :[ |

| Weight Loss | Still feeling guilty after my first real binge. :/ | May 19 2008 19:25 (UTC) |

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how much exercise I should do today to burn off a lot of calories? I'm giong to do cardio for an hour in ten minute increments, but then I'm at a loss for what to do. I really just want to feel like I've made up for that binge. |

Original Post by p0nda: ^ I agree with this. It's such crap. There are a ton of straight girls that go: OMG ALL THE GOOD GUYS ARE GAY.
And it's just... no. Wrong. The ****, flakiest guys are gay. :[ |

| Weight Loss | Approaching the Finish Line Group: Only 20 pounds or LESS left until your goal!!! | May 15 2008 19:10 (UTC) |
199 |
This group is PERFECT for me. I'm really losing it over here and I don't know what to do. I was going so steady for the first 25lbs and now I'm at the last 20 for my ultimate goal and I just can't seem to do it!
Last week I was 149.4, this week I am 150.8. :( |

| Motivation | Hi, I am 5'5" @ 160lbs and want to get to 130lbs! Wanna walk this journey together? | May 15 2008 18:34 (UTC) |

I am about 150 looking to get to 130, but I started at 175. I could really use some encouragement and some friends looking to do the same. I've been really really losing motivation lately and it's scaring me. |

Well, I have been on testosterone for going on 10 months. They have had plenty of time to adjust.
Physically, I am female, mentally I am male. Even hormonally I would be considered male now that I am on T, as my testosterone and estrogen levels are in the male range. |

Well. I'm trans. :/ And my mom had been doing this to me my whole life before I came out to her, so to her, I was a girl for the longest time. So this behaviour hasn't changed since I came out to her, or to everyone for that matter. |

I realise I'm well proportioned, but I'm not thin, no matter how it looks in the photo. I see my own body every day. My upper arms jiggle. I have a bunch of fat around my stomach, on my sides, under my chin. My thighs are jiggly also. I just don't tend to gain weight all in one area and it seems like I am smaller and have less fat than I actually do. While I appreciate the comments, I don't want people to think that I am being unreasonable about my weigh. |

| Motivation | May madness - new month, 8lbs to lose, anyone join me in a new motivation group for the month?! | May 07 2008 17:54 (UTC) |
39 |
I'd really like to get in on this. I really need some extra motivation this month as I'm feeling kinda down.
If I can actually see 144 on the scale at the end of this month I might cry! Right now I'm freaking because I just can't get over the 150 mark to get out of the 150s!
So starting this Wednesday, I am 150.8lbs! |

| Weight Loss | What is your reason? | May 06 2008 18:21 (UTC) |
18 |
I don't want to feel like the fat one in my group of friends. I want to be able to trade clothes with my best friend (hahaha).
I want the clothes I think are nice to look GOOD on me. I don't want to reach in the back of the rack for jeans anymore. When people ask me what size I am if they want to get me clothes for my birthday/holidays I don't want to be embarrassed to say.

| Hehe, I don't eat beef or pork and I actually have no real desire to be particularly muscular, sooo. Hehehe. I know a little bit of weight lifting might help me burn fat more efficiently, so that has appeal for me in that way, but I'm not really quite sure how. I have very little money and cannot buy weights. |

| I think you're right about the being afraid of failing thing. I don't know how I'd cope with trying this hard to do something and having it not work out, especially when it comes to my own body, which I should be in control of above all other things. I am very proud that I have lost the weight I've lost, because I've never lost this amount of weight before. I've lost 5, 10lbs before and wound up gaining it all back, but never this much, so I feel a little more confident that it's for good, but there is still this nagging feeling in the back of my head that I'm goign to screw up somewhere along the line or my body is going to do something weird and I'm just magically going to gain it all back. I ate like a LOT and like CRAP for years and for some reason maintained that weight that I was stuck at, and I'm not sure why. Is it silly to feel like that's just the weight my body wants me to be at? I'm afraid of that. |

| Physically, on the outside, I don't look any different from any other guy my age, really. I don't see why it's out of the question for me to feel as though it's possible for someone to be attracted to me, get to know me, and feel as though it's more of a non-issue of what I was born with in the genitalia department. Or maybe I'm wrong and people really are that shallow. My perception of relationships as a transguy is no different than that of a normal guy. Honestly. It's my brain that defines me as a male while my body does not so if anything works in a male way it's that. I am a very visual person but that doesn't keep me from recognising an important relationship when I find one. If that were not the case I would've never stayed in a relationship with those two other trans guys, or with ANY guy, really. I'm not looking for stupid flings really, I'm looking for a meaningful relationship, and that's not going to be acquired if the shape of my bits is a toss up on whether or not they decide to stick around. |

| I've been in two sexual relationships with other trans guys and it was absolutely no different to me than being in a relationship with any other guy. :/ The one was actually my most long term relationship and lasted almost 2 years. Sure, there were things that we had to work around as a couple in a sexual sense but they had no bearing on my attraction to him at all. I would hope that a serious relationship with someone means more than just what their bits look like, as it would be awful if some guy who had lost his bits or something in an accident was considered no longer capable of gaining and maintaining a relationship. :[ |
