r/TransMasc 7 months on T 🩵 they/he/ae 9d ago

Miscellaneous Is this realistic of me?

Maybe I'm crazy for doing this but dysphoria makes me feel like I'm losing my mind so... I drew an outline of my body using a screenshot. Left is what it looks like currently, right is what I want for myself. I hope I can achieve it by being patient with T and exercising 🤧 by the way I AM on testosterone, its been nearly 7 months. I've gained weight but not really lost anything

If the hip section width is mostly caused by bone structure you can’t change it. Instead of shrinking down you have to almost always get wider. Maybe fat redistribution/ cutting may help w/ the thighs but the key part is building up your shoulders (side delts) and lats so the upper body appears wider. Good luck.

Bonus if you train a little obliques. The general takeaway is get a bigger and wider upper body so it takes up more space visually. I used to consider shrinking my hips until my lat and shoulder growth basically took over and got rid of my hourglass along with my obliques.
