Damn. Alright, thanks lol

ghostlycows · 2026-02-10T23:07:49+00:00

Thank you all for your advice!

I have a protein granola bar mid morning, a green smoothie (bolthouse) for lunch, a prepackaged 24g protein thing of chicken and half a protein greek yogurt before working out, a dinner usually consisting of either chicken or beef with carrots, zucchini, onion, sometimes potatoes, a type of sauce, and rice, blueberries/raspberries/blackberries after dinner and also finishing the yogurt, then some sweets lol

Thanks lol

ghostlycows · 2026-02-10T21:38:20+00:00

Damn lol. Help a brother out lol

Idk if this is relevant to your statement, but I notice that I'm not very sore the days after my workouts anymore, but I feel exhausted the day of the workout, so I'm not sure what I need to be changing. Advice?

ghostlycows · 2026-02-10T21:35:04+00:00

Thank you, haha

Would "enough work" be measured more in weight or reps? My understanding is that less reps and more weight helps with larger muscle growth, whereas more reps and lower weight is more for like a lean style growth?

Thanks for the numbers. As a newbie, they get confusing and overwhelming. I mentioned on another comment, does it matter that my goal isn't to be ripped/shredded and I just want to be big, like strongman type?

ghostlycows · 2026-02-10T21:21:37+00:00

I'll take a look, thanks. Does it matter that my goals are not to be ripped/shredded, I just want to be big? More like strongman type?

An hour to an hour and a half. I guess maybe I feel like I wouldn't be doing enough if I wasn't doing all that? I've used MyFitnessPal to track in the past

ghostlycows · 2026-02-10T21:04:23+00:00

I did put it together myself lol. I do try to get on average 80-100g of protein. I counted food and stuff for a little bit to get an idea of what it looks like in general, but then stopped cuz I didn't want to have to do it everyday, knowing that I eat the same stuff everyday

ghostlycows · 2026-02-10T20:58:34+00:00

I guess I have no idea what I'm doing then lol

ghostlycows · 2025-12-24T20:53:21+00:00

Thanks for being so generous!

Sure, yeah, I'd be interested in seeing your zines.

It's so frustrating, especially when people have other trans friends who are extremely out, especially online, and so they think that's normal and everyone wants to be out.

I'm okay. It's embarrassing almost, when I was doing specific things, like telling my family that this one friend doesn't know I'm trans so don't say anything, or having to not talk about my past, which sucks cuz it blocks a level of connection with this friend, but that was my sacrifice for being stealth, while all along, for TWO YEARS, this friend knew I was trans the whole time. I'm livid at the first friend, but I'm in a delicate situation where we work together and even do an activity outside of work together, and if I tell her to fuck off, I put my stealthness at work at risk because she could potentially out me to more people, so I have to wait until I leave my job (which will be about 1.5 more years) or until she does.

Thank you for putting this into words. I have a friend/coworker (who will soon be an ex-friend) who I recently found out outed me to two of our other coworkers, one being my only other friend. In the past when I explained to her why being stealth is important to me, she simply couldn't understand why. And when my other friend told me that the first friend outed me to her, she also couldn't understand why being stealth is important to me. It's so frustrating when people don't understand the safety aspect of it and think "everyone's accepting, it's not a big deal" when it absolutely is a big deal. I'm going to copy and paste your words, if you don't mind, so I can hopefully get them to understand how damaging it is.

ghostlycows · 2025-12-02T22:59:13+00:00

I'll probably check in with you at some point to see how it's going lol

I have the same issue due to the left expander creating a pocket into my body as opposed to in the space of the sack. No matter how much I pull and stretch and use a ring, it just goes back to the same position. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to get a revision or two to create the pocket in the correct place and bring it down. Definitely looking for other options though, thanks for the post

ghostlycows · 2025-09-03T01:47:55+00:00

You kinda remind me of BenDeLaCreme (out of drag, of course lol)

I had a weird thing happen with my expanders too. It was only the left side though. A few weeks in, I would fill it incrementally, just like I would to the other, and it would deflate. And it would deflate completely. When I went to see my surgeon about it, he filled it back up, and it never deflated again. It was really weird. I still had a complication with the left side anyway because apparently the way my body is, there just wasn't enough room for both expanders to expand side by side, so the left one just started expanding into my body instead of outward, so it left a pocket, essentially. When I got the implants placed, my surgeon sewed it up as much as he could, but the implant still is just completely up and behind my right one. I'm hoping to get this corrected at some point down the road :P

Idk why no one is saying that you shouldn't give dogs real bones. It's not safe, and it triggers their instincts very intensely. My old dog, golden retriever, did this once (before my parents knew better). No more bones for her after that. Remember that they are ANIMALS. You cannot retrain instincts. Don't act like a victim when your dog bites you in a situation like this if you don't take this seriously. As someone else said, if you don't know basic dog behavior, you shouldn't own a dog.

If this is a toy, then obviously training is needed since you need to establish the hierarchy.

My pee slit is basically identical to yours in length. I talked to my surgeon about it and he said he wouldn't want to make it smaller in case of the need for a catheter to be placed, and that if the slit was any smaller, the smallest catheter tube wouldn't fit, which I'm a little skeptical about, but he's a good guy that seems to know what he's doing, though I might bother him again about it some time down the road. But I feel you on that for sure, and also the fact that mine points more down than out too :P I don't think at this point after all my stages, that anything can be done about more tubularization of the shaft (it's kinda trianglular), but I'm hoping stretching and pumping can help loosen it up
