Took my 6th T shot today :))) I’m getting better at the process it’s taking me less time each day I do them! I think I might start timing myself to see if I improve with them! Some days are harder than others for shots and it’s okay to not feel 100% before your shot. Take deep breathes & rub the area you are going to inject and go for it. Take as long as you need though it’s not a race!!!! There are a lot of steps and I’m always so anxious I’m not going get all of them!

Anyway I haven’t seen that many changes yet! I have been working out a lot and trying to eat more calories so I have gained weight and muscle! That’s a good thing for me considering last summer I was only 100lbs. I’m now 117lbs. My hair line has started to drift back a bit. Some of my baby hairs are gone! The peach fuzz on my face is growing back slightly darker and I really had no acne from the transition so far. Let’s hope I don’t jinx that :-)

I’m considering making a YouTube about my transition. Anyone think it’s a good idea?

Just Say Their Pronouns

Kristen Pizzo makes a strong argument for why you should respect people’s pronouns over at Medium:

If you are going to grumble about how hard it is to adjust, think about it as analogous to any of these situations:

When your friend gets married and goes by a new last name

When the year ends and you have to write a new year on everything you sign

When your Pokemon evolves and has a new name

If these are too abstract for you, remember that the bottom line is that none of this is about you.

When you make a big deal about how difficult it is to adjust to using new pronouns or names, you are telling the nonbinary person in question that their existence is an inconvenience.

Stop thinking about how “awkward” the singular pronoun ‘they’ feels on your tongue and think about them for two seconds.

Yepp, those are the main points! Just be a polite, kind and decent human being.

FTM GYM POST::::::

I’ve been battling a lot of dysphoria lately regarding my arms, hips, & shoulders. I have been in a low spot recently, not being able to finish homework on time, missing class, or work. I really need to get my shit together. One of the things that helps me get my head in the right space is going to the gym. I go to Planet Fitness! At first I was so scared because I had never been to a gym before, let alone gone to the gym and been out as trans. Planet Fitness is an awesome environment though! In huge bold letters on the wall it says “NO JUDGEMENT ZONE”. I wish that sign could be everywhere so people could stop being assholes. Anyway, my favorite thing to do is get on the bike, the one where you’re leaning in a seat, & pedal for 30 minutes. I’ll just sit there and watch a Hulu show or listen to music. It’s relaxing & I know I’m working hard to get bigger. Other days I’ll go to work on my arms for about 45 minutes. Those are the best days because I come home & flex in the mirror. I know I sound like a tool but ftms need to love their body more so imma flex for myself :-)

I did not work out in the binder... just put it on for pics! DO NOT WORK OUT IN YOUR BINDER!
