Thank you Donna Jean, I had to laugh when I saw your amazing before and after. I co presented a workshop yesterday on MtF surgeries, from the patient's perspective and started out my portion with photo of me taken at the very beginning - I was not a 'pretty boy' so their was a collective and audible gasp from the audiance. - Hormones do indeed work wonders - inside and out.

Dee Jay, I can't see any difference. :huh:

Oh, wait a minute.

I forgot to put on my glasses. :unsure:

Oh, NOW I see it! :)

Why, you're BEAUTIFUL! :D

Honestly, though, I don't think its all hormones. I think there has always been a beauty hiding within you. You just allowed her to show herself now.

That's the secret for all of us.

Well, Dee Jay, I know that I've never told you this before but I guess I will now.

You are gorgeous!

Now don't let that go to your head because if you get the big head - you'll have to buy a new wig!

Love ya,

Sally

Thank You Dee Jay,

It's comforting to know that starting hormones when middle-age, one still still look beautiful after transition. You seem very happy in the after picture.

Love Susan

I apologize for the quality of that first pic....

We were at 500' over the ground on a really hot day...The raising thermals make for a bumpy ride...plus it was an old "Instamatic" camera...Point and shoot...

We had just had about 40 paratroops jump from the plane and I was relaxing and my friend snapped that Pic...

He was a weird guy ...

And he was from Waco, Texas...

Why are all of the weird ones from Texas????

I love the picture though. It has this wonderful postcard quality to it (from a place that probably was neither wonderful nor postcardish). You looked quite dashing then, but you are much lovelier now :D

Can you be my shopping agent? Didn't you say $11 ?? Fantastic! I love the skirt and top - Wow!

As for the "Try it, you'll like it", well... Darn!

Love, Kat

      If that happens, a lot of things I don't want to see might also be codified into law.  And some things that shouldn't be law might not get repealed.  To me, progress in one area isn't worth the price we'd have to pay in several other areas.     For me, voting on LGBTQ issues always ends up as an "out of the frying pan, but into the fire" sort of event.

      Trying out a new wig. Got my reading glasses on. I've also got dark roots now - first time in years.

      Thea, your post made me think of a comic named Chloe Petts whom I saw recently on Hannah Gadsby's Gender Agenda comedy special on Netflix. She is a cisgender masculine lesbian. She is brilliant and so funny. I was intrigued by her identification - specifically masculine, not butch. And it seems to me there is a difference.

      Today I had a dr appt. When I checked in, I was asked my surname, which I gave. Apparently there were two patients with appointments at that time with that same surname. The receptionist asked, "Are you (my legal name which is feminine) or Paul?" I got such a kick out of it not being assumed I had the feminine name.

      That must have felt affirming, albeit perhaps weirdly so. However, I'd construe that more broadly (no pun intended) as sexism rather than misogyny where the latter would imply contempt. Also, incidentally, I've heard chivalry referred to as "benevolent sexism".

      My boss is in a panic. His business is a couple straws away from breaking a camel in half. He's just handling the stress very poorly.   My dad, though. He's handling things pretty well, as long as I continue to don't get massively offended by being called: son, boy, etc. His eldest is leaving the State and looks so different than he's been used to over the years. I haven't told him I'm on HRT, but to be fair the changes haven't been massive. I've always had boobs, more so after COVID weight gain and made more obvious with its loss, but now I'm not hiding them--and obviously wearing a bra. The estrogen has done some work, but nothing major (sadly). I think the biggest HRT changes have been my skin and a mild amount of fat redistribution.   Today I'm wearing my cheater, I almost have cleavage! :D I need to get another t-shirt bra to keep a good rotation. I only have two, one push-up, and the rest are unlined (great for Summer, but not great for my Summer wardrobe ).

      Thank you so much April!

      Glad to hear it. Abby

      I eat a ketogenic diet and have had no problems. I don't know about your case but I suspect it is the estrogen. Research the types of ways to take estrogen. Pay close attention to the bloodwork results. If they are not satisfactory, bring it up with your doctor. I take injectables, which are fully covered by insurance. It may not be the route for you, but something to consider. I emphasize to do your research and good luck. You can solve this. Be persistent.    Jennifer

      I'm in a magenta blouse under a baby blue buttoned cardigan - still a little cool here in the northeast today - with dark blue jeans. Oh, and my favorite flame colored copper feather earrings.
    • April Marie
      What a wonderful photo! You look gorgeous!!!
    • Justine76
      White crop top and capri jeans ;) Finaly tricked the face id on my phone, "that's not you" lol.

      This is my opinion, so take it for that. Fatigue is based more on what you eat. Eat a more healthy diet, and stay away from ultra-processed foods and that should help. Think of eating the way we did a couple hundred years ago before the industrial revolution. It's just a thought.   Jennifer
    • April Marie
      Welcome back, Jennifer! As a relative newbie to the forum and to transition, I look forward to getting to know you and share in your experiences.
    • JenniferB
      I like the fact that you found support and have close members of your life. That is very important. No matter where you are on your journey, you have to have the support. Or you drift, and you question yourself.    Looking forward to your progress,   Jennifer
