It's amazing how much fat distribution has to do with the way clothing fits.
Pre-T, I was sitting around 155-165. I have zero concept of what size I would've been in women's clothing, but I had a rough time finding men's jeans (thanks, useless hourglass body). I ended up having to wear 36/32's *just* due to my hips. The larger size, which was wholly unnecessary for the rest of my frame, ended up making me look a lot bigger than I was (in a not great way).
I've been on T for 13 months and I currently weigh the most I've ever weighed in my life at 195. 34's are now comfortably loose on me around the hips. 32's are doable, but I don't prefer my pants to fit that tightly.
Also, my butt has definitely decreased. I was in the shower the other night when my fiancée busted in and told me I now have what she affectionately referred to as a 'man ***'.
Honestly, I was shocked at first. I saw the scale steadily increasing and was subconsciously preparing for the worst case scenario. I've only had to increase my shirt size due to my shoulders/arms/chest width. Granted, I've been busting my *** at the gym in an effort to offset my hips, but still.
Shape is (thankfully) so much less determined by our skeletons than we think.
