Yeah that was the headline I read today that popped up on my Google home page (I get news about trans people when I go to Google) that got me thinking of looking into the show. Thats going to be the main focus of the new season that starts the middle of this month.

So many trans people struggle with obesity. I’ve read that like 25% of all trans people are too heavy for surgery. It really makes me be even more particular about keeping my own weight in check. I worry I won’t pass unless I’m smaller because I’m not very tall. Despite always passing before. I asked my doctor yesterday if I passed and he was confused and taken aback by my question and said he was never asked that before but indicated I did pass. I remember our mover guys asking my mom back in May if she had any other kids and she mentioned my sister and he said “aww. So you do have your daughter.” My thinking just gets screwed up sometimes.
