Isn't that crazy. I'm an only child... But I look like my younger sister.

 

Stunning revelation... Is that the estrace?

I would say partially yes, the other part is your emotional state which is much better now!

Thanks everyone...

 

I Must admit... It's about overwhelming....

 

I've been on HRT less than a year... April 26 was first spiro/finasteride/ progesterone dose...

 

Two weeks later the progesterone was discontinued and Esterace was intro'd...

 

Now I am referred to as "Miss Michelle" as opposed to "Mr Frampton"...

 

BTW... For future reference.. 

 

Had I squirted out as a girl, my mother, God Bless Her beautiful spirit, was going to name me Michelle...i got Michael... Chit happens!!!

 

So... I am waiting to hear from my 'Surgeon' to set date for...

 

Breast Augmentation with additional Tummy Tuck, as per related to Feminization procedure, including narrowing of wiast and tightening of inner-thigh epidurmals...

 

Oh My F...ing Gawd!

 

Top Surgery w/Tummy Tuck paid for per Existing Insurance...

 

Can I say WOW?

Yes it can be as we accelerate towards the goal.  But keep things in perspective and you'll be fine.   One day at a time!

I just received my referral for my second psych eval letter required for FFS, Top and Bottom Surg evaluations. My one HRT requirements will be met on April 26.

 

I am getting excited now!

So... My Therapist and I (mostly me doing the talking) realized that, due to HRT, my breasts are forming as though puberty is in full progress. I am firmly in at 40 A cup! I have nicely formed 12-14 year old breasts. Both tender and visibly growing. So we decided to wait for the full 2-3 years on HRT and then see how my breasts have formed naturally!

 

He is talking to my PCP and has started the order for full FFS first and placing me on the Bottom Surg list. Once that FFS is healed bottom is next. Fortunately the waiting lists here are not that long... So we'll see. I am not going to rush this. 

 

My Therapist has done his due diligence and I've calmed down considerably. Onward and upward!

Ok... Two week update.

 

I Just met my Psychiatrist today. I weighed in at 183.4 pounds. BP 115/79...

 

She asked me a kazillion questions and concluded I have major depression with gender dysphoria and was prescribed Zoloft... Who knew!

Anyway this was taken earliier Spa Casino Buffet, Palm Springs is what I am still wearing. 

 

I will be getting my third and final letter of recommendation for all Feminization surgeries beginning with FFS then bottom. Gonna let nature take its course with my breasts as they are growing exponentially.

      I'm with you on the Facebook avatars. My sisters asked me about mine
    • MaeBe
      All these beautiful people in my biography, I feel so blessed!   No fallout from the Facebook avatar thing, yet. I instantly deleted it, but I really do like the avatar I created. I'll have to recreate it when I'm more out to friends and family.   I guess they weren't dancing, one was blowing a birthday horn and mine was "like, omg, so surprised!"

      Happy anniversary, Kathy.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      This is what I'm seeing too. I hate it but it is the current reality.  I expect more trouble in the future since "they now have the perfect excuse to let go the brakes." Kinda funny how quickly things turned against us.  I don't think we can really count on the Democrats either.

      I'm sorry, I don't want to be overly pessimistic, but I think to an extent the truth is irrelevant here. There is an absolute torrent of transphobes-were-right-all-along stories emerging in the wake of the Cass Review, not to mention the WPATH Files. These are coming not only from the usual anti-trans suspects, but from reputable newspapers like the Washington Post and the New York Times. (David Brooks in the Times: "Hilary Cass is the kind of hero the world needs today.") And while I'm aware that both those outlets have been leaning anti-trans for a while, they now have the perfect excuse to let go the brakes.   Ultimately, all that's needed for governments to ban these treatments is enough public support, and I suspect that support may be rapidly growing. Since I work with trans kids, cis folks often bring up the topic with me when they have "concerns", and I have been amazed at the number of otherwise reasonable people who have latched on to classic anti-trans tropes like social contagion or the idea that trauma causes transness. Whereas in the past they were generally convinced quite easily by my obviously superior knowledge, I'm expecting the task of convincing them to get harder starting as of now.

      In those dimensions, not even Sophia Loren could hold a candle to me. A Goddess....in my own mind. lol

      So, just imagine how spectacularly beautiful you'd be in four-dimensions April.
    • Ivy
      That does sound hard to keep up with.  I use patches, changed twice a week.  But I have to have my phone set to remind me.  I just don't think about it.
    • April Marie
      Oh, I am drop-dead gorgeous in a totally different dimension @Sally Stone! :-)

      Ladies, each of your comments makes me realize my decision to share my journey was a good one.  Before committing, I worried that my storyline wouldn't be of interest to anyone. I'm so glad I'm striking a chord with many of you.

      I am sorry to hear that. It just means something better is in your future!

      How we look in photographs isn't really anything we can control.  I've actually searched for answers and there are lots of good explanations out there like this one:   https://www.foxbackdrop.com/blogs/news/beautiful-photogenic-reasons-tricks-foxbackdrop#:~:text=Based on the light-creation,angular faces are usually photogenic.   The simplest explanation is a picture captures our image two-dimensionally when in real-life, we are seen three-dimensionally.  A person can be beautiful or handsome in real life but the two-dimensional image can be way different.  So, for those of us that don't think we look good in a picture, fear not.  We are much better looking in three-dimensions.

      This is your journey and no one here will judge you or bully you. This is a very accepting, non-judgemental place and you can process at your own speed. Having said all welcome Violet, we are glad you found us. I know we all look forward to hearing from you.

      Good morning    I should not have said about sleeping in, now I have to go in 2 ½ hours earlier.  Oh well at least I. Off tomorrow and Monday, I think.as of now, hope I didn’t just jinx that too.     Hot today high 80s dropping quickly and rain to the 60s for a couple of days then more normal 70s.  It just depends on which way the wind blows. Off the gulf, hotter, off the ocean, cooler, out of the north rain and when they all converge, look out.  That’s today.   i made a pot of coffee but I think most of it is going to waste.  My wife went back to bed and I’m not good with coffee when I’m hot, and I am. That’s my fault, I was 4 days.late with my E again.  I just st have a really hard time keeping on a 10 day schedule.  And my reminders aren’t helping..   now I’m going to peak by tomorrow since it isn’t all absorbed in one day, I’ll hold fairly steady but if I’m late again I’ll drop well below my target yet again.     Im down in the valley, the valley so low But I see my true love, at the top of the hill i climb the mountain, but she is not there for she has gone back down, to the valley below   I didn’t come up with a refrain and with that I’m calling the guys with the padded cells. lol   Willow
