Running helped give me energy and stamina but didn't do shit for my weight.

I can’t keep that stuff in the house. I do weed edibles (used to smoke but the carcinogens in smoke are too detrimental to cardio, haven’t taken a rip in years), so there is no way I can keep any junk around, not even cereal. Too dangerous when not sober

You can't just exercise an expect to lose fat, you have to eat right too. Lots of sugar for instance will actually prevent fat loss. Alcohol is metabolized like sugar, so no alcohol either, at least not until you reach your goals. It's best to eat for muscle retention, remove as much sugar from your diet as possible.(Eat Clean) When you're working out hard you should get 1g of protein per pound of body weight, low sugar like 10g a day max. Fresh veggies, lean protein, chicken, fish, Whey protein shakes. Remove Soy from your diet as well for men, it acts like estrogen an lowers your testosterone. So read ingredients of things you eat and avoid it, 80% of all the food in grocery stores has soy an high fructose corn syrup in it cause its cheap, but that's why obesity is out of control. Some cans of goddamn tuna have soy in them, the broth it's cooked in uses soy.
BMI does tell you jack about your fitness, body fat does. Weight means little, the body composition means everything, fat to muscle to water ratio's, they have special scales that can measure these in seconds. The more muscle on your body the higher your metabolism, so the goal is always to add muscle while losing fat. Extra protein is required for building new muscle as well as repairing an maintaining the muscle you have. If you starve yourself you lose muscle and your metabolism slows, then when you get tired of starving yourself you gorge. Now that you have less muscle from starving yourself you will get fatter than you were because of the slower metabolism due to losing muscle. So eating right can be the hardest part.
1 lb of fat is 3600 calories, water is usually 1st thing you lose from sweating. You cannot lose pounds of fat in a day, you CAN sweat pounds of water daily. Just remember that when you think you've lost lots of weight in a few days, it takes months of clean eating an exercising to attain lasting gains/loses. Maybe a few cheat days.

All good info, except that according to just about all research, the amount of soy you would need to ingest to have a significant impact on your estrogen level is very very high, outside of the range of just about anyone other than women who are specifically doing it for post-menopausal reasons

Just like there is also no food that you can eat, nor supplement you can take (other than oral steroids), which would have anything remotely resembling a significant impact on your testosterone. Health food stores sell herbal supplements which claim to increase your testosterone, don’t buy into the scam. What they do is increase your libido, which is possible with herbal supplements. And this tricks the gullible into thinking “I feel more horny, my test level must be up”. Nope. Get a blood test before and after doing a bottle of the stuff in a month, and you’ll see no significant change

Food just isn’t a good source of messing with hormones. The way to significantly lose estrogen in men’s bodies is to lose weight, because test is converted to estrogen in our fat cells. The more fat cells we have, the more that is being converveted

Otherwise all great info

I'm a trans woman if you're not aware so 100% it's endocrine. Getting blood work later this month after dosage change (which was probably too low). I was like 500 e / 17 t on 6mg/5 day. Got dropped to 4mg/5 day. You may be right that t is too low, though. Think the target is something like ~200/<50 insert units. Living on energy drinks and smoking to keep adrenal glands working over time and that's also something im kicking this summer.

Ty for the advice! Also omg at that before / after. Wow.
