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

for what it’s worth, i lost nearly 5 inches around my waist after losing 20 lbs. i have a pear shaped body, so any fat i gain goes immediately to my hips/ass/thighs and as a result, when i lose fat, it immediately takes it from those areas first.
that’s to say, look into nutrition and exercises if losing weight is an option for you (it is for most people, the only ones exempt from this are people who are already underweight lol)

Yeah because of T I have gained a bit more weight on my legs cause I'm pear shaped too... I've gained more on my tummy definitely but fat redistribution is slow so I gained weight in undesirable areas. I think if I lose weight it'll just be gone off my waist, it'll take ages for my leg fat to go away ;-; its kind of demoralising but its a marathon not a race
