I'm still discovering that myself ๐Ÿ˜… It can be hard to find nutritionally balanced snacks, so I like to keep a variety around. Things that I like to have around are popcorn/potato chips, fresh veggies, tortilla chips and salsa, lunch and snack meats, and of course some sweets like gummy candies and chocolate. I try not to eat too much of one thing. If you're thinking about reaching for a whole bag of chips, maybe make a sandwich instead.

I struggled with disordered eating before HRT. A few weeks in, another trans girl explained to me that the body needs energy to do its thing. It's basically second puberty and you know how much teenagers eat.

I was like you, being able to eat a couple of meals and be satisfied. Now, I snack more. I also eat smaller meals as it takes less to fill me up. I'm also ~6 months on E, so I've lost some muscle mass. Despite my new eating habits, I've been able to maintain around 70kg at 180cm tall. Meanwhile, my body's been burning the fat buildup from T and packing it onto my butt, thighs, and chest.

If you want my two cents, try snacking more and just eat when you're hungry. You don't have to eat until you're full, just until you're not uncomfortable anymore. Trust the process and let your body do what it needs to do.

If you start going in a direction you don't like, you can stop. You might also consult your doctor for advice

I plan to be early to the point where I get uncomfortably anxious if I leave on time. I set alarms and reminders to remind me that I need to start thinking about getting ready. I try to be ready way ahead of time. I am experiencing this right now.

Install power mode and you won't be able to stop just idly pressing keys. Eventually, some of those key presses will be useful!

Maybe submit a GDPR request to get all of your photos from FB in a nice clean package so you can pack them up into cold storage and nuke the albums on the platform entirely.

Congrats on the self-confidence, my dude! I still fret about my appearance from time to time, but y'know? Yeah, kinda, I know what you mean. Do you smile more? Because happy looking people look more attractive and that might be making you like your photos more.

My pandoc scripts are fairly easy to use, I think...
