well, i was just curious, with all the metal imagery consisting of so many "musclebands"(manowar, venom, hammerfall etc) who try to look so tough and "heavy", and having muscly band members is a must.

i do, for health and looking good.

From fatties? Harsh that they would do that considering their own problems. What do you eat that so bad for your body type?

I just eat a lot of chocolate and candy, and not an ounce of fruits or vegetables. Which is obviously even less healthy once you add working out to your weekly regimen. Sugar isn't exactly the greatest source of healthy energy. I do drink water though.

Ah okay, I cut that out when I started transition in fear that the hormones would turn me into a fatty, lol. I started eating pork, etc again since but I still haven;t started eating candy again. I only gained 10lbs from the hormones, but I lost it all during the gallbladder issue.

I'm not trying to gain weight, but I'd welcome it. People often make snide remarks in regards to my weight and then subsequently point out my dietary flaws. It gets annoying after a while. Especially from fatties.


Oh, in my case I was just worried some wind will blow you away.

I do have to keep my arms at my sides if the wind picks up real good.

Lol, nahhhhh I'm sure you do alright, Mr.Troy. Are you quite unhappy being thin, or just would like to be a little bigger? Have a certain goal? I just try to maintain my current weight, my body has gotten used to the hormones and it's no longer a big issue.

I don't want to lose weight, but I do want to shed a little of the pudge I have. I'd like to tone my torso but I don't want to gain muscle mass.

Before transition I did martial arts and played ice hockey in high school (so yes it was a shock for a lot of people that I watned to transition). If you see my arms there now I have a very small amount of the typical fat there now, I have just a tiny little tricep that I am really hoping the fat will cover up. It's odd to hear a girl say she wants fat I'm sure. lol I had a lot of muscle on my bicep and fore arms to lose, but i did within about 4 months (Been 15 months since I started transition.)

Why don't you want to gain muscle mass?

I'm turned off by muscle. I have pretty big arms (had the gun show - - since I was very young), and I my abs are well-defined, but I don't want massive pecs and bulging back muscles. If I could I'd trim the muscle on my arms and stomach and go for a "flatter" look.

I never had just massive muscles other than my forearms which are thin now and the biceps covered up by a lil fatty tissue, but I understand what you're saying. I started to get muscle in my abs but then fat from the Estrogens and then got flat from exercise. I had no issues before with legs, but my thighs got a tad on em hips, etc etc. Not worried about that though, it was expected to say the least. lol

Technically if works means you run, walk, lift, etc. then yes.
