Hai hai everyone!!

 

It's been a long time coming but I am finally ready to start HRT!!

 

My latest visit with my endo was kinda funny because she told me she wanted me to lose weight. I decided that day I would focus on a low carb diet and work my way into healthier carb lifestyle. For 3 weeks before this visit i was diligent and apparently I dropped 13 pounds! My doc came in and was like: "We must have made a mistake when we weighed you" lol. I went on to tell her i took her words to heart and started dieting and she was very impressed!

 

After going over labs and ordering a few more she told me I am all set for HRT!! I'll be starting  next week!! I'm happy, excited, a little anxious, but overall so ready!!

 

Gonna be cosplaying at a convention this weekend with a friend it'll be our first time cosplaying. We're excited and a little nervous but looking forward to it. Depending on how it goes i may post a few pics later!!

 

That's all for now, i'll see you around!!

Keep up the good work.  It may be more difficult once the estrogen is in your body.

Hai hai hai everyone!!

 

Just updating since it's been a little while. It has been a month since starting HRT and already getting favorable gains :3

 

At the suggestion of many of my Ciswoman friends, I now wear a sports bra since I am overly sensitive around that area; they were not joking about that. Those have been the most noticeable changes other than other areas that are going the opposite direction. My hips are even starting to grow a little, I only noticed it the other day while doing some yoga:  I bent over and I happened to look at my hips as I was going down, they are flaring out a bit further than usual!

 

I havent been doing any voice training but i frequently speak in what I consider my feminine or true voice and many people have noticed that I sound a little different even when I am at work, where I use my "male mask"

 

My therapist has noticed that my gestures are more feminine as opposed to how I was when i met her; it was part of my homework to work on that and she told me it paid off big time.

 

The year is almost up and I am stressed out beyond belief!! But it's not all bad: I have a few getaways planned in the next 3 weeks. I get to be the real me the whole time for all of those getaways so I am excited!

 

Unfortunately, I had to let my bf go; i like him and still consider him to be a good friend but taking care of him became work to me. At times i felt more like his Mother or Elder sister then his woman. His energy was bringing me down so I asked him if one day we could go back to being friends; the awnser to that question is still up in the air.

 

For anyone that does know what MAGfest is: WE'RE GOING!! AND WE GOT A ROOM AT THE GAYLORD!! I plan on being drunk at some point each day since driving wont be an issue. That aside, i have my whole crew with me, we're all excited to be going once more and looking forward to all the events and concerts. I will be doing my cosplay again, gonna try to tweak a few things so hopefully, more pictures  and better ones at that! We will be posting a podcast and my friend wants me to be the moderator!! Still not sure how well that will go but, gonna do my best!!

 

For those who don't know what MAGfest is:

https://super.magfest.org/

 

It is an awesome time even if trying to get a room is a major pain and needlessly complicated.

 

I dont think i have much more to say other than i Love all of you and your stories and posts help me out so much when i have a bad day or a hard time so please keep sharing with me!! I will keep sharing with you too, because i wanna be  to others what you all have been to me!! Have a Wonderful Holiday and I'll try to post again soon!! :3

Hello hello everyone!!

 

It's been a little while but I'm still doing fine!! My transition is moving on along and i am really starting to blossom :3

 

Recent labs from my Endo lead to some adjustments to the meds; I am so thankful to have an endo that's watching out for me. I am actually at my endo's right now; they are a little backed up so I'm in a lil queue.

 

Work is kinda crazy right now as many upper management have left and so openings are available. I have applied for one of them; they are done with interviews but are dragging their feet on the results :(

 

Yall!! I finally went out with my friends to that bar we love; it took forever for the stars to align but last weekend, they did and we went! I wanted to look extra cute so I threw on some heels; 3 inches nothing too crazy but i was getting complements all night long! We all had so much fun! Can't wait to go again!

 

I gave my blog some love with a few new posts and I aspire to add more posts more frequently, but i don't want to force it. I'm gonna do the best I can!!

 

If you haven't checked it out yet that address is:

 

iamyuuseria.blogspot.com

 

Check it out if you want to :3

 

Well she sounds like she is about ready so i am gonna end it here. I will try to post again soon!! Love you all, keep on being awesome :3

Hi Lady Ayu.

Happy for you to have an Endo watching out for you!

 

Some guys I know run a starship simulator room at Magfest. 

The whole fest sounds like a magic fun time.

Hello everyone, it has been years since I posted in this topic; there isn't a good excuse for it. I've had alot happen to me and  I just lost track of this forum then when I DID happen upon it I completely forgot my password. Well as you can, I managed to figure it out :3c

 

Sorry I fell out so hard I do have some updates but I'm currently at work so I'll keep it short kinda

 

I have been on HRT for going on 4 years and it has been a dream. I'm finally starting to feel "right" in my body if that makes sense. I still have a ways to go, but it's been good. I have also moved out of my old house in the country and moved to the cityside, where my job is. it's been quite the transition itself, just as needed and long overdue.

 

Since the time we spoke last, I've started a Youtube channel where I post Gameplay vid and streams!! i will share that in the appropriate topic channels soon; if you're interested stay tuned!! 

 

I feel like i am always complaining about work to yall and I wish I could say that has changed but well, here we are lol. I am still with the same Medical System joined about 4 years ago. I have since moved to a satellite clinic of it where my job concerns more of the revenue side; it started off great but well... Over time the lies, deceit, and corruption came out. i'm kinda miserable and looking for a new job.  

 

I have tons of new pics to share!! Will share a few when I get to my home comp!! 

 

Gonna keep posting here and participate in member activity!! Good to be back loves!! I hope everyone is still doing well!!

I'm new here, but I read back through this thread; what a lovely story. Work is what it is, but it sounds like you're thriving outside of it. I'll keep my eyes out for your updates! Have a lovely weekend!

      I'd love to have a dinner party with Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Voltaire, and Ayn Rand.  Would definitely be an interesting time.

      In the forward I learn that transgenderism is bad, and somewhere else that transgender ideology is bad.  I have not yet read a definition of either in the document.  I assume they are the same.  I know Focus on a Family has a definition of transgenderism on their website, or did, but I am not sure this is the same as that.  I might agree that transgenderism is bad if they use a definition I condemn (e.g. transgenderism means you always pour ketchup in your shoes before you put them on - I could not agree to that).  Is someone who believes in transgenderism, whatever it is, a transgenderist? I never see that term.  There may be other definitions out there, but I don't think there is an Official Definition that we all agree to.

      Crazy fact, was gonna go to the school where this went down at before I moved, have a lot of friends there. I know at least one of my friends met the guy on one occasion, not knowing who it was.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      They are thinking of Loudon.  The problem there was the girls were not protected from a known predator, who was moved from one school to another instead being effectively disciplined.  Outlaw school administrators? <sarc>

      How ironic.  I agree with the governor "“You cannot change your gender; you cannot pick your gender…there is a confused group of people that somehow think you can,”    - we are what we are, we are fighting the fact we CANNOT change our gender, which we did not pick.  Many if not all of us would not have picked a trans condition and have sought to evade, deny or move out or resolve it anyway we can.  Those who are confused on this issue are not trans folk.  They want us to change our gender but they deny we can.  Confusion.

      @FinnyFinsterHH no one can satisfy your questions about what will the future hold. But I can advise you to slow your mind down as much as you're able. Take it slow and one moment at a time. This advice goes beyond the practical reality that that's truly all you can do - further, try to enjoy each moment. It's clear you have a lot of aspirations regarding transition. But it's best to try to accept the bounds of your life circumstances at present because if you develop worries or even resentments about them, that will only make you bitter and more anxious. Instead, try to focus on anything you find affirming. Practice positive self-talk and give yourself affirmations too. Try to let go of expectations of your family members - they can only deal with change to the capacity they're able due to their own life conditions. Allow them grace as you wish they would allow you. Practice patience.   Try this exercise - read through your post and make one list of the positive developments and another of things you cannot control (including the future). If you have a sense of spirituality, offer the second list as a sacrifice to however you understand a higher power - leave it in their hands. If you're not spiritual, then offer it up to hope. Then throw that list away. Keep the list of positives and leave some room on it because guaranteed you'll have more and more to add. Look forward to that, but don't let your mind think it can rush things. Try to enjoy the ride.

      I still have not read much of this.  Very little of this document pertains to trans folk.  Some of the statements are more than problematic concerning trans folk.   It certainly was not written just to get us.   " those with gender dysphoria should be expelled from military service."  and "Reverse policies that allow transgender individuals to serve in the military. Gender dysphoria is incompatible with the demands of military service,"  https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_CHAPTER-04.pdf are two lines out of hundreds if not thousands regarding the Department of Defense, targeting trans folk in an almost off-hand manner.    So if a fighter pilot, say, or a ship's captain, highly experienced and trained at enormous expense, is determined to be transgender (method unknown) the US loses someone badly needed due to the personnel shortage who is ready, willing and able to perform their duties.  Many trans folk have served well and transitioned later.  I don't think this point is well thought out.    A number of policy recommendations I would disagree with.  I am not sure there is a method to discuss those with the authors; I am attempting to find out.  I have good conservative creds.    They are fully intending to implement this, regardless of who the president is, as long as that president is conservative. It is not Trump centered.  I don't think he had anything to do with it.

      I wear a Delimira Mastectomy sleep bra with Vollence sleep rated breast forms. The form fit inside pockets so they don't touch your skin. I bought the bras on Amazon and found the forms on eBay. They were much less expensive than buying through the other sources.

      I wore an olive corduroy coverall dress with a navy blue shirt underneath.

      @LittleSamCongratulations on one of the biggest decisions. Looking forward to your progress. 
    • Ivy
      I don't wear a bra to bed.  The girls aren't big enough to need it, but still enough to appreciate.  Just a flannel nightgown suits me fine.
