Stared on spiro and estradiol tabs for 11 months and then switched to injections, add progesterone and halved the spiro 5 months ago. I feel like I've gotten more since my meds were changed up.

I’ll be asking my doc about progesterone for sure. I’m insanely jealous! Hah! Of course I’ve only been on spiro and patches for 5 days, so I have to be patient!

This is one of my favorite top. I don’t do yoga but I like the clothes. Sorry for the weird pose I noticed something when I walked past my mirror. When did that happen?

Liz, You are coming on a treat. Looking good there. :goodjob:Loving the fact you smile more to. You no longer give the impression your parrot has just fallen off its perch for the last time.

 

However I cannot help but wonder what it was you noticed as you walked past the mirror! A new curve?  The ghost of Jesse james? Do tell!

You're gonna make me say it. I have a butt. I find the whole prospect a little humorous since most of the cis-girls I know complain about having too much regardless how small it is and I'm happy about it.

No, I feel that. I get my butt from my dad. I had to work like heck to get enough butt that I feel reasonably happy with it. I've got girlfriends on both sides though. Some of them are trying for more butt, others are working for less. Some just complain about what they've got. Body dysphoria is a hell of a drug apparently.

 

Hugs!

Linda Marie,

 

That outfit looks wonderful on you, very stylish and what's not to love about polka dots.

I am going to also say what others have said but elaborate a little.

 

Linda, You always most certainly dress the part and the best thing about it, you dress to your strengths. You have got to grips with looking what other women of your age wear (No disresepct intended. We are all getting older) and use that to fill your everyday with a certain class that only a woman of your standing could.

Examining my own fashion choices, I recognize that my go to outfits generally include a skirt and booties as staples, then I'll complement the outfit with lots of other options for tops.  Somedays, it's just a blouse or pullover top, other days I layer with a jacket or a cardigan.  Funny thing is, my wardrobe also consists of quite a few (okay a dozen or so, if I'm being honest) dresses that I rarely wear.  Usually, after trying on one of them, I opt out of wearing it because in my mind's eye, a dress is just too dressy for most everyday outings.  

 

Yesterday, I decided to wear a dress despite my too dressy concerns.  I paired a bright and colorful, form fitting sheath dress with a short cropped blazer and instead of booties I wore closed-toe pumps as footwear.  I may have felt a little overdressed when I left the house, but the outfit had me feeling really pretty and well put together.  I had forgotten how self-confident a pretty dress can make me feel.  It's not that my other wardrobe choices don't do the same, but personally, I think the right dress takes things to a higher level.

I'm so excited for this post for two reasons:

1: My wife went to our favorite consignment shop's $5 sidewalk sale and came back with more clothes for me (top pictured here is my favorite I think) and just as exciting,

2. I found the perfect selfie lighting in my house!!!!  Dam I look good in this lighting ;) hahahaha

@Sally Stoneyes, I agree a good dress really gives you a boost. I find any time I actually try to put some thought into looking my best with clothing I have much more swag and confidence going through my day.

Looking good Bri and love the top.

Love side walk sales and consignment shops and can spend hours just looking.

Looking good Liz.

I had a top similar to that one but the fringes were different.

Same color tho'.

Everyone looks so good. I got my name change court date this morning. I don’t have anyway to take a full pic of me. It’s a new top and wig.

Oh and I took everyone’s advice and only put eyeshadow just on my eyelid. It does look better. Thank you everyone.

Just took this pic. I think it is a good pic of me. Now that I’m officially and legally Holly, it’s my celebratory photo of me.

I really like that top - it's the sort of colours and floaty style I love. My wife struggles with acceptance of Niamh, but to be fair she did buy Niamh some girly things at Christmas. However she has never liked buying clothes for herself, so expecting her to like buying clothes for me as Niamh might be asking a bit too much!

      I don't see why not. I have worn forms since I came out. 
    • MaeBe
      I have never worn breastforms, but I assume as long as they don't aggravate your nipples you could.

      Every week I've been excited to take my shot, so it's never been an issue. Yesterday, however, I woke up and started my usual "slow roll" and then suddenly realized I had breakfast plans that I had to rush out the door for. After, it was straight into work calls, and then I got the notification from the doctor about things being too high and all the while my mind had completely slipped that I needed take my shot.   Given that I am not asking for medical advice, but sharing my journey, I will note my results: Estradiol at 447 pg/mL and Testosterone was 23 ng/dL, up and down from 26 pg/mL and 526 ng/dL respectively before treatment. Almost flipped the bit! The doc would like my Estradiol closer to 300 pg/mL, so we'll see what Monday's tests state.   Oh, and I teased the dinner with old soccer teammates and never updated the thread! It went well. There were a couple funny moments. One guy, who I was worried about their response, greeted me with "Hey, you've lost some weight!" 😎 And a friend who lives near me picked me up on the way to dinner exclaimed, after we learned one of the invitees might show up with a date, "Wait! We could have brought women?!" To which I instantly responded, "You kind of did, bringing me!" Everyone got a good laugh out of that. 😁

      To me there isn't that much difference other the measurement, which side the zipper is on and men's pants have bigger pockets. 
    • missyjo
      I hope this is not stupid question..I have yet to start n not sure if doc will approve..but once you start growing buds n such, can you still wear forms to get to the size you were?   I'm a dad, so when I start blossoms they will be smaller for a long time n probably need surgical augmented..that's fine. I don't want to go ddd to aa to ddd..   any ideas?   thank you

      April sounds fun..I keep some boy jeans to visit mom in..fir now   hugs

      I like them too.  We had them growing up.  But my father's family were Swedes.

      Oh my!  I guess it just goes to show how different tastes can be. Since we don't live near the ocean, Seafood is a rare luxury. We absolutely love pickled herring! Especially my husband and my GF, I guess it's a Ferman/Russian cultural thing.  But most of the kids like it too, and a jar wouldn't last in the pantry for long 😆
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      I think the key to that is just not minding eating the same thing repeatedly. Since we produce a lot of our own food here, we end up eating what is in season at the moment. So, when the yellow squash is ripening, we end up fixing squash 20 different ways. When the strawberries are ready, we eat lots of strawberries. It's kind of a different mindset to eat in season when it has become such a part of American culture but the grocery store has everything we want all the time. Like grapes in December.  My family does even things out a little bit by having a greenhouse so we have some fresh things in the winter, but it's not a 100% fix.

      My brothers and I had to eat what was on the plate.  All of it, and nothing else.  Pickiness was not tolerated.  Some of our least favourite were liver and onions, sauerkraut, and especially rollmops (pickled herring).  We finally protested enough to persuade our mother not to serve rollmops, though she kept a jar in the pantry for years afterwards, as a threat if we didn't behave.

      I'll go first.  My favorite team is the Yankees.  Loved them since I was a kid.  I was born in NYC so, yeah.  I know everyone loves to hate them, and that's OK.  I just love baseball in general.  It's a game of traditions, strategy, power, grace and skill.   Play Ball!!  ⚾   Carolyn Marie

      I guess you do have a good point. It's just hard to try and not have the same meals over and over again.

      Hi   I’ll weigh in on being picky about food.  Yes, and I was brought up that way.  We didn’t have to eat everything our parents ate.  They had a number of things they ate that they figured we wouldn’t eat, an acquired taste things or one or the other didn’t like them too.   even as an adult there are many things I won’t eat.  In my defense, there are different things my wife won’t eat.   the weird thing is that after being in E, my tastes have changed.  Sweet, sour, salty or bland, if I eat or drink too much of any one thing and I have to counter act it.   Willow

      I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.
