Wow, so, I haven’t been on Tumblr in a few years so here’s an update - if you remember me. I have been on testosterone for 2.5 years now. I have a full time job in the “data for social good” industry. I graduated with a degree. I’ve had so much heartache and pain but have lived for the small moments of love and friendship that the last few years have shown me.

some people on insta said i should post my workout routine since i mentioned how im so happy with the results, so here’s my little workout guide for my fellow trans folk! I focused on getting a more masculine body because obviously that’s what I want. I’m so happy with the results, this workout is saving my fucking life!!!! I can’t get on T soon so this has really been keeping my dysphoria in check. I barely get body dysphoria, i love how my clothes looks on me, i love feeling confident for once in my life!!! HOWEVER Don’t go overboard with working out my friends. Do not work out in a binder, you MUST take days off to let your muscles heal, and you CAN’T starve yourself! Fitness is all about health and diet! Take care of yourself. This is also MY workout routine, you may not get the same results as I have! Every body is different. 

EDIT: ahh I really didn’t expect this thing to blow up….A few people have brought it to my attention that some of the nutrition here could be wrong/not work for everyone. I apologize if I caused any harm. I think I stressed enough that you shouldn’t starve yourself to lose weight. That’s very dangerous, and if you’re prone to such habits I suggest don’t count calories, etc, and just make sure your diet is very nutritious. I just provided a way to lose weight that my doctor told me about. You don’t need to lose weight if you don’t want to. Obviously if you’re already thin there’s no need to make a goal to lose weight; that’s dangerous. Also, some of this may or may not be helpful depending on your body type. I was underweight before working out so I have no idea how it would affect someone overweight! Please don’t hold this post to such a high standard; this was just my own routine and things I do to stay in shape, I obviously can’t cater to everyone. I literally didn’t expect this post to blow up like it did, this was literally just for a few people. Sorry for any harm it caused!

I was tempted to IM you but again, I’m a coward and even though my blog is sfw, with my luck it’ll probably get deleted. :’)

I love having new friends so, please do!

[perplexedhipster]

All I get are sex bots, I spend so much time just blocking them all. :’)

They are very annoying for sure. Apparently Tumblr'a new regulations didn't catch em all.

[perplexedhipster]

Not even a tiny bit. I’ve never interacted with you at all, and I’m a tiny blog. We aren’t even mutuals, man. ; o ;

Oh well I just haven't been following anyone lately bc I haven't been on and usually I just get a lot of sex boys who follow me 😂 I'm sure you're great and have a great blog!

[perplexedhipster]

I’m just a total coward, the annoying person that admires from afar but never interacts. D:

Do I know you/of you?

[perplexedhipster]

What the heck is up, dudes? I haven't posted in like two years so here's an update. I started testosterone about 8 months ago and it's done a lot. My voice is like 1,000 octaves deeper. I have hair on my face. And I'm a lot more confident. Transitioning hasn't stopped all of my depression or anxiety. But it has eased a little bit of it. It's made me stronger. I'm dealing with a lot but I'm nowhere near as bad as I was. Cheers. 💙

I think I have a crush on you, but it’s stupid bc I’ve never spoken to you and I’ll probably always be afraid to.

But like, whoooo are youuuu?

I feel like all of my friends hate me for some reason but I don't think I did anything and I'm just probably a paranoid asshole
