So how does fat redistribution even work?
Might sound odd to some but I sort of like being a bigger guy - not as fat as I am currently, I'd like to get down to around 215 lbs, but I like being burlier and having physical presence as opposed to how frail I looked before developing a binge eating disorder(which I have since largely beat and am 40+ lbs down from). Much prefer being a bearcub to being a twink.
The main things that bother me about my current weight (approx. 235 lbs) are my double chin and the sheer size of my hips and ass. If I held fat like a cis man (and could grow a beard), I would still want to drop a bit more weight for the good of my health (and vanity's sake), but wouldn't be as dysphoric about and outright disgusted with my appearance.
I've heard extremely mixed reviews on fat redistribution on T. Does existing fat in feminine areas really gradually burn on its own while anything new sits in the belly, or am I just stuck with massive fat stores there unless I slim all the way down? Does T make losing fat in those areas easier since there's now more testosterone than estrogen in the body? Or does any of it genuinely move?
