Hi,
I'm jake and I have been on T for seven months and joined MFP about a year or so ago.
I'm just looking for other ftm or mtf folks who are also working to lose weight. I have lost about 55 lbs in 18 months and have a goal to lose 40 more, hopefully in 6 months.
I follow a bariatric 1200 calorie diet. My fiancée just had roux en y gastric bypass and I'm trying desperately to keep up with her :) j/k I know that's an unreasonable expectation.

Anyway, just looking for more friends on the trans spectrum to share weight loss and exercise tips.

    Hi! I just joined too, and I'm also trying to lose 40 pounds. I'm a little disappointed that this group doesn't seem very active.

    Yay! Glad some people are on here and active.
    MFP didn't send me message when y'all replied.
    Welcome back to the group.

    I definitely could use all the buddies I can get. I have a super supportive partner and IRL friends, but love the connections on MFP!

    Hi, I just joined this group. I identify as genderqueer and am hoping to get top surgery eventually. I'd like to lose weight so that when I do get top surgery I will have the lean muscular boyish body I've always wanted. I'd love to find friends to keep me motivated and share exercise and food tips and offer support.

    Hey everyone. I'm looking for support from some people who kinda know what I'm going through. I joined MFP for the new year, and I did really well the first week, but when it was time to go back to school the dorm food really effed me over diet wise. I'm on week 3 of the 100 pushups challenge and 200 squats challenge along with some cardio I do in my room. So far my chest seems to be getting a bit smaller, but what I really want is to slim back down to where I was only a year ago so that my "love handles" aren't so pronounced in all of my masculine shirts.

    Anyways, I'm pre-t and pre-surgeries, but I've been living full time male at university for a year and half and it's great!

    I'm active on MFP; less active in the forums; not nearly active enough physically ;)

    I'm also trying to crack the carb addiction again. I lost 45 lbs before the holidays and started HRT the day after Christmas. I recently got my spiro and E upped from starting dosages and I feel *amazing* !!!

    Any of you feel free to add me! Let me know it was from here.

    I am here too- I am starting to use MFP just to lose a few pounds to get that summer six pack hahaha. I'm 19 and I have been on T for about three and a half years and I had top surgery a little over a year and a half ago.

    Just came back to MFP, was here when I was working on losing weight pre-top surgery and now that I'm recovered and getting back into working out and losing more weight, figured I'd come on back.

    I've been using Medifast on and off for the past 2 years. Have done really well with it; lost 30 lbs preop and now have lost another 20+ postop. I'd already been overweight when I started on T last May, and the increased appetite didn't help matters. Thankfully, that is under better control now.

    Just found this group today. I don't get on the forums much but I'm pretty active on the app. Feel free to send me a friend request if you want. I'm nonbinary, AFAB, looking to get top surgery if/when I can organise the appointments and rigamarole.

    I've recently joined the group- but I am a FTM who's trying to currently lose 100lbs due to my estrogen levels being a pain (as I sadly have very high E levels..) and honestly it's becomming more troublesome to diet or even exorcise due to my depression and dysphoria... so my exorcises are pretty limited.. :/

    I'm here if you wanna talk though. !!

    Hi all....kinda sad to see this group is not very active. I just (re)joined MFP and was hoping to find some other gender variant people. I am AFAB but currently identify as genderqueer (I think I might be transmasculine demiguy, but still trying to figure things outs for myself, tbh). Please use he/him/his pronouns for me, thanks. I gained a lot of weight the past year due to severe depression, and I am trying to lose it. I don't think I will be able to take T (because I have a history of blood clots), but I am hoping that working out will kinda help raise my T levels a little bit at least. Anyhow, feel free to add me, if you'd like.
