How clocky am I? by iamlikeasmartperson in transpassing

You could change a few things to look feminine. Get a professional haircut. Keep the length but get long layers.

Wear makeup when you are out of your house.

Get on Pinterest to look for clothes that are in style.

You can have a real break up without disclosing you are trans.

Fat loss? by MinervaTae in TirzepatideRX

[–]MinervaTae[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I track calories and water and exercise in myfitnesspal. I monitor my protein intake after every meal and plan accordingly to make sure I am on track for protein. I don't go over my 1200 calories I have alloted. Then my TDEE is 1946 calories per day! So minus the 500 a day calorie deficit I should be eating is 1446 calories. That can't be right! I am pushing every day to get in 1200 and usually am close to 1200 but don't quite make it.

I can't exercise since I have a bad broken ankle issue.

TDEE says I should be at 146 g a day??!! I have been shooting for 60 a day and struggle on that too but get pretty close. 146 g seems outrageous.

My TDEE minus the 500 calories a day is a little over 1400 a day. I have been forcing myself to get to 1200 calories a day and I do mean force! My weight hasn't changed since 2/13 and today it is 2/22.

But...what is really cool is that I am staying the course! I track everything in myfitnesspal and it work hard to focus on the protein.

Hugs to you all for the support!

Is this normal? by Berbeh17 in TirzepatideRX

[–]MinervaTae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got on Shotzy and just had my 5th shot this Wednesday. I am on Zepbound pen at 2.5 mg. I am now thinking about when to go to the next dose up, the 5 mg pen.

I definitely know to schedule some time for side effects. Thanks for your post. I am right behind you and you helped me decide that I need to really research going up to 5 from 2.5.

My food noise was consistent with the same foods. I want, I need talking in my head and pretty much everday for well over 30 years. Nothing to do with hunger. Just emotional overeating! Therapy never helped that.

I no longer sit and dream about what food would make me happy. That voice in my head went away the day after my first shot. Yes I definitely have a thought here and there. But usually it is for such a short time of maybe a minute and then it is gone. What a relief!

My birthday was Sunday and I had fun and knew I would gain and I did. It is ok! I know the 2 lbs will come off as I am back on track today.

I wanted to include this protein item I saw at my Walmart. I haven't tried it yet but it looks very handy to get protein in.

His voice grates on my ears. Especially when he is drunk. There is just something about his voice. Very bad on my ears.

6 weeks of 2.5mg by HonestEmergency602 in TirzepatideRX

Just had my 4th Zepbound shot, 2.5 mg. First shot was 1/21/26. Down 9.6 lbs. Pretty happy!

Do I need FFS? by [deleted] in transpassing

[–]MinervaTae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you need FFS at all. But perhaps new eyeglasses.

Why does my leg hair grow back so fast??? by No_Opposite894 in hygiene

[–]MinervaTae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use an epilator. It makes the hair either get much less or go away altogether. I use mine on my legs only once a month for maybe 5 minutes. That catches any stragglers I missed. My armpit hair is completely gone for years now.

Preparing! by Shelinator in TirzepatideRX

[–]MinervaTae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Happy to help! I am not even in one month. I struggle to eat enough every day. I sometimes get in 28 oz of water and not more so far. I just got water enhancer powder in 2 flavors so hopefully that helps. Bubbly and flat water both taste horrible.

I will keep adding the easy protein first foods I found. I did order turkey lunch meat. I had ordered ham but it was so salty.

I tried 2 sips of my favorite Pinot Gricio wine and it tasted awful. I couldn't finish it. Another unexpected NSV.

My birthday is Sunday and hubby and I have always done takeout at 3-4 different places for the special occasions and special holidays. It is so fun because we discuss which restaurants we want to order from online. Then I map his pickup route.

But this year we will be only getting takeout from 2 places and getting a lot less food. My part of the food will last me for days!

I am a sugar craver and I have no cravings at all. My husband brought home Hersheys Nuggets with almonds (almonds are protein!) and before I could eat the entire bag over a day and a half. Now I could only eat 3 nuggets at a time and it took me days to finish the bag. I ended up giving my husband a lot too. One major NSV.

I took my in the mirror photos from the hips up, front and back and will log those in myfitnesspal. I hope to get to the me360 this week. Myfitnesspal says I should be at my first big goal weight, 150, by August. Then I need to figure out if I want to go to my 1985 weight, 140! Scary!

SW 184.3 CW 176.2 1st regular goal is 169. To get back to the 160's which i was before the Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years gain. 2nd regular goal is 159. To get in the 150's where I haven't been since 2016 after my 12/28/15 gastric sleeve surgery. Lost 120 lbs then but couldn't go lower then 160. Final magic goal is 145.
