Did your hobbies/ interests change while transitioning?

We talk a lot about sexualities "changing" (or realizing it's not what they originally thought) awhile after starting hormones. I'm curious if you've noticed yourself lose interest in certain hobbies and activities while gaining that interest in others, and how long into your specified transition you started to noticed this shift.

I didn't change my hobbies, just the subject matter. Prior to transition I was mostly building Gunpla model kits. Currently, I'm building more Mecha Musume (Armored Girls), Slice of Life girls and strangely getting back into Maschinen Krieger.

Computer gaming, definitely doesn't have the appeal it used to.

interesting, so basically you were building boy figures as a boy, and girl figures as a girl.
