Commenting to follow post. This is something I encountered, and you described my exact situation! I'm already trying upping my calories some, it seems to be helping a little, but I want to see what everyone else offers here.

July 01 - 205.4 July 08 - 203.0 (2.4) July 18 - 201.6 (3.8) July 22 - July 29 - (My dates have been all screwy for check-ins here because of my schedule, but I'm trying!!)

If you're attending: the wedding and the reception Going to a gift opening is not required. If you want to see your family instead, then do so. At least I wouldn't take offense if someone didn't care to see me open their gift... (Granted, I like many others have not even heard of this tradition??)

I feel like there are a lot of things wrong with this picture. Are you observing Ramadan for the religious purpose? Or because you think it's a good way to lose weight? If it's the latter, you are disrespecting individuals' religious practices by making a fast with symbolism into a diet plan. In other news, that calorie…

Android is one of the most functional and customizable operating systems hands down. You also get tons of choices of phones, instead of just one. There are many more free, functional applications and if you need to be doing a lot of things at once the android is what you want to get. iOS is very limited as to what you can…

Thanks! :)

Phone Progression: 2006-2010: Motorola Razr (The silver flip everyone had) 2010-2011: Motorola Droid 1 (This one broke) 2011-2012: Motorola Droid 2 (We decided we hated Verizon with a passion. The phone itself was wonderful) 2012-now: Motorola Electrify. US Cellular. The Motorola Electrify is my baby and I don't want to…

Eh Why not. Not really all that drastic but it's what I post to Facebook as my updates. 30+ lbs. 230+ down to 203.

Well my weight gain came from not exercising as well as body image issues. I was covering my body and not realizing I was gaining weight until my clothes were super tight. I wasn't out, even to myself, while I was gaining the weight, but then I came out and just kept gaining. A bit was medications that made me crave carbs,…

Here's what I have to say. I had to train my body to only need 1500 a day. Yes, that's more than 1200, but I also make sure to exercise and such. The trick was that I couldn't just hop right in. So I started at 1800, then went to 1510... now I'm at 1450 and it isn't a problem. This was over a 2 month period. I still lost…

July 01 - 205.4 July 08 - 203.0 (2.4) July 15 - July 22 - July 29 -

Alright, I threw this together waiting for a work appointment. What do we think?

If you give me a few days, I can try to work something up :)

Whoops... Missed day 1... July 01 - 205.4 July 08 - July 15 - July 22 - July 29 -

I'm in! Sorry I haven't been on much to reply! (Busy summer!!!) And yes, this group does feel very inclusive and I love it here, but it would also be nice to have a Genderqueer/Intersex/Trans/etc. specific group since I think a lot of us have similar goals in our weight loss/fitness, or else we can relate to the…

I'm up for it. Just going to have another week in there I can't weigh in is all. :)

1st June 2012 - 0 - 216.6 Lbs 8th June 2012 - 3 - 213.6 Lbs. 15th June 2012 -4 - 212.6 Lbs. 19th June 2012 -6.6- 210.0 Lbs. 29th June 2012 -10.4-206.2 Lbs. 10.4 lbs lost for the month!!!

I won't be near a scale on the 22 (I'll be out camping in a field parking cars at a country music festival) so I am weighing in today. 1st June 2012 - 0 - 216.6 Lbs 8th June 2012 - 3 - 213.6 Lbs. 15th June 2012 -4 - 212.6 Lbs. 19th June 2012 -6.6- 210.0 Lbs. 29th June 2012

Masculine genderqueer. Not FTM but identify as more masculine than feminine by far.

1st June 2012 - 0 - 216.6 Lbs 8th June 2012 - 3 - 213.6 Lbs. 15th June 2012 -4 - 212.6 Lbs. 22th June 2012 29th June 2012 I was down to 211 for a while, but I had an awesome setback for whatever reason. Oh well.

I'm currently in a confusing relationship of sorts where we are working on it. We aren't "technically" together but we've been best friends/fairly exclusive to each other romantically for about 3 years now, having finally discussed it in March. I'm genderqueer, female bodied but masculine identified, and my boyfriend (for…

Would love a group like that!

I know the feeling. I usually don't join online forums unless they specify that Genderqueer individuals are welcome. There are a few FTM groups on YouTube and such that have been very supportive of me, but those were like luck of the draw. It's just... ironic the way people are afraid of the "side effects" of weight loss…

If you identify as trans* based on this identity, it "counts" and don't let anyone tell you otherwise! (I'm a huge supporter of ending the trans-enough idea that floats around the community. Transgender is an umbrella for people who feel they are somewhere different on or outside of the gender binary!) But I identify very…

1st June 2012 - 0 - 216.6 Lbs 8th June 2012 - 3 - 213.6 Lbs. 15th June 2012 22th June 2012 29th June 2012

All of you individuals who are saying bc does not make you gain weight are false. However, a lot of times it is a temporary or minimal weight gain, because the hormonal changes cause your body to retain more water. 10 lbs is usually the top end (which is what I gained). But it can also come down to like why gained weight…

Stomach, Thighs, and Arms.

I gained 10 lbs when I went on it, but that was 2 years ago. I gained a lot more of my weight from poor eating and medications I had been on that were tons worse. Now it's just a new normal of that there is probably 10 lbs extra that I will have to lose. I'm losing just fine at this point. I'm on low-ogesterol

Pepper. Plain old, on your table black pepper.

Too true. Sometimes the only way to combat the craving is to just give in, otherwise you will be trying to satisfy your "hunger" with things that your brain isn't begging for.
