    Welcome! Good luck and happy getting fit. :flowerforyou:

    Just like everywhere, there are people here who are judgemental and disapproving. Just ignore them and surround yourself with positive, supportive people!

    I love how despite the title of this board no one replying is shocked or horrified. I know it's probably hard not to assume that people have a problem with you when many do but I don't think MFP is a place where orientation or gender matters,it's just people supporting one another. It almost seems like the original poster was looking to find people who might hate them. I wish you all the luck at your weight loss that I would any other member, didn't need to know anything about the state of your gender to feel that way about you. Have a great day!

    Welcome and good luck. :-)

    P.S. There is a 'LGBT+' group on here that you may or may not be interested in joining for added support -
    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/22-lgbt
    This group is a safe haven in which the LGBT+ community can discuss what is affecting their lives, relationships, careers, etc.

    You are welcome here if you're lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, questioning, intersex, asexual, pansexual, queer, gender queer, gender neutral, gender variant, polyamorous, closeted, out, androgynous, straight ally, friend/supporter of the community, undefined, supportive parent/guardian/family of LGBT+ persons, or if you simply don't fit a label, don't like labels, or you're just interested in learning about the community.

    Feel free to openly discuss whatever is on your mind here, but be respectful of all members, follow all MFP and group rules, and remember that bashing of any kind is unacceptable.

    Have fun!

    I thought this too. I could care less what section you buy your jeans in Tina. Welcome to this journey and good luck with your goals!
