I'm trying really hard to work off the girly parts as much as I can, but I was cursed with a pretty feminine body unfortunately :(

like I said I'm still working hard.
What do you do for your abs? Looking good man.
I do Insanity with my friends lately, and I'm in physical therapy at the moment and they make us do a lot of crunches, The rower, and like decline push ups anything that works the core and I think like a lot of cardio like running and stuff cause it gets rid of that extra layer to show what you got. Just do military workouts they work if you do them everyday
Well running is out for me :( thanks army medical for that. I'm almost done my MEB yay. Would the insanity be to much for someone with a bad back? Since it got messed up my body hasn't been in shape unless round counts.
Well the body sure passes! More masculine than most guys I know :)
Two things I gathered are that you might be shorter than the average guy(?) and the other thing might be because my brain is trained to look for it is that the hips are a bit wider than the norm although not by much and my cousin as a similar (although taller) figure, I guess the muscles are very beneficial here :)
You were in the Army as well? Yeah I cant run jump or anything because of my legs and stuff stupid Army broke me and then wouldn't fix me. Yeah insanity.. you might have to look at a lot of the work outs because I think it would interfere with your back you work your whole body with it. I have to make alternatives for my legs it sucks but i do what i can and get something outta it.
and thanks yeah I try to work off the hips but its really hard and I think besides having boobs that aren't so small the hips piss me off just as much. and yeah I'm a short guy only like 5'4 haha but i try to have muscles to make up for it.. I pass almost everywhere I go so I'm doing something right
Sitting on CQ now bored out of my mind.
Oooo I hate CQ!!! specially on the weekends it's the worst
where you stationed?
The oh so not lovely Ft Stewart. They took the cable out again which is making being here today so much worse.
Omg I'm so sorry. At least you get cable and stuff. I'm in Germany.. not much to do on CQ here at all we sit in this small hall thing it sucks!!
whats your MOS?
Ammo how bout you? I can't wait to be done and start college. How much longer do you have before you're back stateside?
Patriot Missile Launcher and Operator. haha. It got me to Germany and that's all I wanted was to go somewhere cool. I just hate the army, the lifestyle and everything.. just not what I want exactly. Yeah can't wait to start school and get on with transitioning finally. I get out in 2013 how bout you?
I'll be medical retired in about 2 months. I'm thankful for the friends I've made but not for the beating my body has taken. I've had fun traveling but ready to do school and have a normal job.
I'm most looking forward to finally being Wesley all the time.
Dang your injury must have been really bad. That sucks but hey your getting out and can do your thing. how long have you been in? Yeah I love my friends that I have made here and everything.
12 years between the Marines and army. How long you been in?
Holy ->-bleeped-<- you got me beat! so you got to go to Afghanistan and stuff? your a sergeant aren't you? I have only been in since august 2010 not even a year yet....
Holy crap, you look pretty great. Your back is still very feminine in looks but your front looks dashing, but maybe that's because the shirt is covering up the sides. I am very jealous of your muscle development in the front. I have no trouble gaining muscle mass on the shoulders, chest, and arms, but it's the abs that kill me. But I am naturally very skinny, with high metabolism, so I've never been able to successfully keep an amazing diet. So that might be the cause. I was thinking of doing some High Intensity Interval training to burn the fat around my belly. I think you can probably say the pace of the army or marines is a form of HIIT.
I was wondering how you guys do it, be in the military as you are. I am from a heavy military family and even wanted to be an Air Force Jet Pilot, go to the Academy and everything. I didn't meet the requirements for pilots though. But I always imagined myself going in as a male. I can't see how you do it as a female. It takes it's own sort of strength to go through the military as you are, I think. I love the military, and I wish I could join as a male. I would love to, if it were possible. It's somewhat disappointing but we're making headway.
Well growing up I wanted to do 3 things. 1) be in military 2) be a police officer 3) be a boy. So far I can check off first two working on third. I need new life goals now haha. Umm any suggestions??
Yeah I did my tour in Iraq. Sucked being away from my son but I'll be able to share stories with his classes later about what I did there. I can say it's one time I got away with using a STP without any questions.
I think the biggest reason I've made it this long being in and being trans is cause I didn't know what I was when I first joined. Being called tom boy growing up it wasn't a big deal to do what the guys where doing. Once I was in the Marines I found it easier to get away with acting that way. Once in a leadership position I found the guys respected me more for doing or out doin them.
your abs look awesome
how is the insanity workout? i've been thinking about trying it, but i don't really want to pay for it. is it true that you don't need any equipment for it?
Your looking really good!
Your abs are ridiculous. ö_ö
Not going to lie though, your hips are looking pretty massive. There's not much you can do about that except try to hide them. Or if they're mostly fat (I can't tell) T would probably help you out. Best of luck~!

Hey yeah. I work out as much as I can, It's so hard tho cause my weight does its own thing if I don't keep up everyday, but I'm trying my hardest. For my abs, I'm still not happy with them but they are getting there. I think it's all on keeping up with them everyday and diet is huge! I can't wait to start T because then it should shed off I hope. I go in Sana's (however they are spelled ) often cause I try to work out and then sweat out what I can. I pass almost 100 % of the time. Even being in the military sergeants sometimes all me it. It's awesome!!
but yeah here at work I'm in the closet with being Trans only some people know, but everyone thinks I'm some crazy bull dyke or something lmao. I can't tell them tho cause I'll probably get sent to mental health.. I don't need that. So I'll keep it to myself. Yeah I wish people can transition and then go into the Military I don't see what the big deal is. Your fighting for you country. If you are capable physically and mentally I don't see the big deal.. but I think it's because people don't want to deal with stuff they don't understand.. It's so dumbbb
Hey Alix
I can't imagine what it's like to serve and be in the closet being trans. NOW THAT'S A TRUE HERO. You're a strong man and I bet Im not the only one on here that would agree with me.
Thank you, Sir.

I agree 100%!
I have always wanted to serve. If they took trans men I would sign up in a heartbeat.
Squishy, I can see where many of the girls in the miltary overseas would being trying and using STP's. It must be difficult at times when out on patrol and needing to pee and having the gear on that you need to wear. Experience with a STP would be ever useful in those situaton. Do you use hormones to control yours periods when you are out on patrol too?
I don't use hormones I've had the luck of not having one in some time. I keep hoping its something worth the army doin a hystro for free ;D
