Hi, I've been on the site on and off for a few years but never tried the social aspect of it before so I thought I'd give it a try.

-FtM transgender, nonbinary/genderqueer, they/them/their pronouns
-5'6"
-highest weight 160
-current weight 155.5
-goal weight 135
-sedentary with a terrible diet
-learning how to cook for real, trying to get back in the habit of going on daily walks

I've been heavier but my gut looks bigger than ever before - I stopped working out and traded muscle for flab. I'm post top surgery, hysterectomy/oophorectomy, and 3 years on testosterone. Hoping to find friends with similarly bizarro bodies. Fellow FtMs feel free to shoot me transition related questions.

    I think its sad you are looking for certain kinds of friends ..... Isnt the whole purpose of having friends acceptance and love?
    I would be friends with anyone who accepted me as i am, and the feeling would be mutual.
    Just a thought, trying not to be negative.
    I hope you achieve your weight goals, its been a long road of ups and downs for me.

    I got it and I don't think you are out of line either I have been adding and seeking people who I can relate with more in my weight loss journey as well. Not to say I would not add anyone because they didnt share a similar body type, age and gender as mine and I'm sure you feel the same but I'm actively seeking others that do

    Totally ok to have a desire to connect with people who you relate to for whatever reason. Good luck on your journey to a healthier more fit lifestyle!

    Hello! I feel the same, in terms of wanting to build a community.
    I'm trans (ftm) and am working on my poor health while trying to build muscle. I haven't undergone surgery but I'm trying to find a way to start hormone therapy.

    Not transgender, but I think it's great that you are transitioning toward your ideal self, in more ways than one! One tip from a nurse practitioner student: to anyone considering hormonal therapy, DON'T SMOKE!! Best wishes for your journey to health.

    Not even sure what that is. Lol binary thought was number related. Either way, EVERYONE here is supportive regardless of sexual preferences, self identity, etc. We all hope you do well and hit your goal weight!
