Sometimes I hate the mental dissonance in my brain. Like.
I'm a trans woman. I like to dress very femme. It makes me feel good. But a little part of my mind, sometimes, pipes up and says, "Wait, Zoe, aren't you perpetrating harmful stereotypes by dressing femme? You say a woman is a woman no matter how she dresses, but then you go and put on a skirt? Just wear pants!"
shut the fuck up brain
I want to lose weight, I think I'll look better if I shed like 5-10 kg. But that same little part of my mind pipes up and goes, "Wait, Zoe, aren't you perpetrating harmful stereotypes? You say people can look hot at any weight, and then you want to go and get thin? What gives? Are you lying when you say to your fat friends that they look very good?"
no, shut the fuck up brain
It's incredible how social stereotypes fuck with your mind.
I like to dress femme, but that doesn't mean that women who dress butch aren't women, or don't look good. I want to lose weight, but that doesn't mean that fat people don't look good, or are less worthy of love, or have to lose weight.
Intellectually, I understand this. But sometimes brains are a fuck.

Body stuff/weight stuff/gender stuff
I’ve been thinking about having a corporeal form and it’s not fair that I can’t shapeshift irl. Sometimes (oftentimes) I wish I had different genitals but the different genitals I want aren’t always the same different genitals. Also I wish I could gain like 15 lbs but I’ve kinda plateaued it seems like. Ideally if I could have 15 more pounds in my tits and ass that would be Awesome. I also wish I was hairier - I remember in middle school seeing one of my teachers with A Lot of arm hair and being like “that’s too much I’m glad I’m not that hairy” but I’m retrospect I think that was my nonbinary autistic prepubescent brain not wanting to have a big change to be More Gendered. I would Love to have as much body hair as that teacher did, give me fur Please

The Dreaded Weight Stall…
Welcome back to my bariatric blog where I cover bariatric/weight loss surgery topics.
Weight stalls are THE WORST! What exactly are they and what are some ways to beat or get through them without losing hope?
Weight stalls are periods where a person’s weight does not change for weeks or months. The body just stays around a certain weight and doesn’t decrease. Weight stalls can happen at any stage after surgery. Sometimes (a lot of the time), weight stalls can wear on the individual mentally. There’s really no apparent cause of a weight stall from what I have experienced. Then one day, the weight starts dropping again like the stall didn’t happen. I’m sure there’s a ✨science✨ behind it but I don’t want to bore you with those details.
I’ve experienced at least 3 weight stalls in the past year since surgery. My care team told me the first one usually hits around the 1 month post surgery mark and it sure did. My team said that it’s not certain why that happens but I have an idea or theory. I believe that one’s body is basically in shock after weight loss surgery and the body just doesn’t know how to respond to all the immediate changes. Yes, you may participate in a pre-op diet to prepare your body for what’s to come but rapid weight loss still shocks it. So maybe it has periods of where it has to rest from losing so much weight and then it kicks back into gear once it’s done freaking out. Seems fair but I have no idea if that’s what is happening. Just my theory.
Anyway, when stalls hit, how can you combat them? Well the answer to that question is not about going back to the liquid diet stage to trick your body into losing weight. There’s no need to reset your new stomach (or pouch if you are a gastric bypass baddie like me). No. The thing to do is to just keep doing what your care team has planned. Keep eating appropriately to your body’s needs, get those fluids in, and move your body. That’s it! No theatrics or some dramatic thing. Just stay the course and your body will start to lose again.
All that information above is about weight stalls during your active losing phase. There is another type of stall that lasts way longer and it’s a little weird…
So, eventually, your body will get to a place where it is happy at its weight. You may shift +/- 5 pounds around this “happy weight”, but it generally stays in that area. Because your body may be happy where it is, you may stay at that weight for a LONG time. And that’s okay! I’ve been shuffling between 173 and 178 lbs for the past month or so and I’m cool with it. Yeah, I want to get to my goal weight of 160 lbs. However, if my body is fine where it is, I ain’t mad at all! Yes, I’m still following my care team’s advice and all but I just ain’t losing much weight anymore. But, I’m happier and healthier now than what I was a year ago and that’s all that matters!
What are some questions you having about weight stalls? Have you experienced weight stalls? Comment below or send me a DM and maybe I’ll answer it in another post!

I got my nice blue and green paisley pyjama bootyshorts out and decided i was going to wear them even though they're tight on me bc i like them and there's nothing morally wrong with having a big backside and chunky thighs, and I'm trying to at least stabilise my weight without bothering with a calorie deficit, and mum came into my room to say goodnight or whatever and instead commented on the shorts being bright and then said they were "under some strain" 🫠 and now i hate myself and don't want to eat ever again lol
She says shit like this as a joke (why?) and then gets all quiet and guilty when I call her out on it like at 76 years old why have you still not gained any fucking insight into why commenting on peoples' bodies is FUCKING RUDE
I literally just want to get under my skin and scoop all the fucking fat out. I'm not even that big. My waist is 36-38 inches ffs. But i can remember when my thighs didn't rub and i could see everything if i looked down in the shower
Since i had top surgery it's made it so obvious that I'm not flat straight up and down. The surgeon left no chest fat whatsoever so I'm just permanently "several months pregnant" even if i hold it in

I want to get snacks for later, but absolutely nothing I want is healthy and even the "healthy" options I know I'll still feel guilty for eating. I miss being able to both enjoy food and not hate myself but I think the last time that ever happened was middle school ha h a.

Got hit by a wave of depression about food and how I haven't really enjoyed it in years and probably won't ever again... Love that.
