I think a big part of why I eat is to help drive away my thoughts. Overeating and feeling full makes me sleepy and keeps the thoughts away long enough to get to sleep. I'm looking for healthier ways to control anxiety.

I've never tried illicit drugs... unless underage drinking counts?

*FTFY and that's for sure!

LOL Until about a year and a half ago my life has been very boring with a lot going on beneath the surface... the surface was recently expunged.

Got over an addiction to porn ;) sorta.

I hope I don't lose much... if my band goes down more than the breasts I'll be ecstatic :smiley: They're still growing, so I suppose that's possible...

I'm starting my year today! I don't have any big plans for New Year's Eve. I'm an ENFP (personality type) and that means I have a hard time sticking to plans. My resolution for 2015 is balance. I'm still working out my plans, but they may change often and that's ok!

Hm... well I have no jewelry to speak of . . . . ;) If I do well in January, nice earrings in Hawaii is my reward (capping the price, though). I need to get a swim suit, too... :open_mouth: ~ though I bet I don't have time to swim (going for work :smiley:)

I've named my years... 2013 ~ My Year of Discovery 2014 ~ My Year of Transformation 2015 ~ My Year of Balance After coming out in 2013, I lost 45 lbs. My weight loss stalled during the holidays (and insanely high dysphoria). I started HRT on Dec 27 (my 1 yr HRT b-day is on Saturday!) After my endo raised my meds to "way,…

Dust... I collect dust.

Thanks! :) I want to, but I'm not even going to try over the holidays... I think I've reached a point where I'm (somewhat) more balanced inside, but holidays are very emotional (and will be extra wild this year). I hate new years resolutions, but the timing makes sense. Salad for lunch today, though! This week has been…

I'm not ready yet, but I'm planning on dating after divorce and regaining stability. I'm feeling mostly straight lately... so straight/pan men ;) I may have GRS by the time I do date, but if not things will just be less sexual for a while. My genitals and my capability for sex aren't and never will be the most valuable…

"I'm gay" might work ;)

I know I'm far more scared for my kids in divorce than in my gender identity and the changes over the last year and a half. It's hard to work together when one person doesn't want to :(

Mine's a bit different... I'm a straight woman married to a straight woman... we're figuring out divorce. Everything seems good for now, but we're planning on filing in early '15. Oh... I came out trans in there somewhere, too. That's how it happened ;) ~ I'm not totally "out" as straight yet... that's not the primary…

I'm certain I'd lose weight limited to Cap'n Crunch and Soda.

From my Dad: "Hi" Me: "That just cost me 10 cents." ...and then I turned off texting on my phone :open_mouth:

Since August 2013.... 0 lbs / wk. There were complications this spring/summer....... but now I start again.

Only my boobs..... Oh, wait, did you mean the parts getting healthier?! My answer is still the same. :bigsmile:

A spin bike or other cardio machine. . . but I like the idea of an indoor pool!!! Maybe some day (marry rich? ;-) )

Any of their salads except the taco salad. They're the best fast food salads out there and pretty safe on calories. Chili is also a healthier choice. I can't imagine there's anything else worthwhile unless you're in a 1000 calorie cheating mood... the LTO smoked gouda chicken is pretty good ;) and Wendy's has the best…

That's why I'm here!

I'm not particularly religious, but I acknowledge the validity of belief and consider myself agnostic. This piece is religious, but it's a good story: http://www.peace-catalyst.net/blog/post/carl-medearis:--the-myth-of-love-the-sinner--hate-the-sin- The problem is that nobody ever said to hate others' sins. They said not…

I was on salads for months and it worked very well. Yes, you can lose weight without salads... but leafy greens like lettuce are one of the best sources for nearly calorie-free bulk. Saying "eat the same but less" doesn't work well for me... I don't mind being a little hungry, but that's a recipe for a major bandwagon…

♥ I've got three kids and I'm not on my own, but will be (probably with shared custody) sometime in the next year or two. I love my kids very much and I'm afraid of what will happen after. It's very scary to see how hard it will be for all 5 of us afterward and I think their mother and I are both dragging our feet on this…

I try to have a reasonable breakfast, a tiny lunch, a normal dinner, and mostly healthy snacking in the evening (plus wine). It seems like a good plansince I can't use my old method of cereak for breakfast then just salads anymore. It has worked for a week but I didn't do well over the weekend 'cause of emotional eating…

I'm a bit late, but I'm new to the group. I lost some last year and regained about half. I know I can do this but things have gotten more difficult for me (due to new meds) Here's my starting stats: Starting weight: 214 Current weight: 214 Goal weight: 170 I weigh in daily, so IDK when I'll report here. My goal weight is…

Hm... tea bags, and good idea! :D I'm making some now... (but which?)

I say wear what you like, too. If you want someone to be attracted to you, let them be attracted to YOU. I like skinny jeans (at work year round or in cool weather elsewhere) because they feel (and I think look) good on me. Now if I were making a huge faux pas or things didn't look right, I'd want friends to tell me ~ but…
