Alright guys I've heard that there is a "natural" way to transition - which isn't as effective as taking HRT (hormone replacement treatment), but apparently helps to make some changes in your body. For about a week I was out of commotion due to inflaming my sciatica in my right side down to the calf - this was obviously NOT fun for me and set me back on exercise, and I'm wasn't able to provide a healthy diet while not feeling well so I'm sure I've regained something (lost 29lbs recently and haven't weighed since). Since I am now able to stand for a extended amount of time again I'll absolutely get back to a healthy diet and keep you updated - I'll post about every 10 days with the total amount lost, recent changes, and a general overview of how I feel the process is going.
I'll be taking DHEA and maybe some other supplements or herbs which I will also update on as well - don't have a ton of money but I'll get whatever I can to help this process. Also just letting you guys know what I'm doing to increase my overall testosterone level.
As studies show T is increased by healthy eating, exercising (mainly weights), and getting enough sleep. I'll let you guys know the female body can gain tons of muscle but you have to train heavier - this does not mean going all out and pulling a muscle (pulling a muscle hurts like hell and can result in tearing the muscle from the bone).
I had read this article:
http://www.artofmanliness.com/2013/01/18/how-to-increase-testosterone-naturally/
Which I didn't 100% agree with because I'm a vegetarian for the simple reason to decrease cholesterol which can also be found in plants (the good kind of cholesterol), and additional ethical reasons that I will not disclose here... But he does make plenty of other good points - and some of them I've already mentioned previously.
So check back in about 10 days and I'll let you know about how I'm doing along with managing my pain.
Thanks,
Jace
