the good parts of HRT MTF for the older ones- is this normal?

Noticed that while a male I was lean, shrinking small butt, firm abs, gaunt face and thinning thighs. Now after 3 months I have just begun to notice that while I remain the same weight of 142 lbs and still excecise the same amount yet, I seem to look fatter in my tummy, my butt has put on fat and fill my pants out, my abs however are not very distinctive anymore and  my  face and thighs are filling out. I think I look alot younger and have had question from friend questioning what cosmetic surgery I have had - makes me  .....I am still in stealth mode. I presume this is normal and not a change in perspective in my mind?  Wish I could post pics but I'm too recognizable in my city.

Yes, my face filled out, my hips are filling, I've full B's moving onwards , very happy with the developments. I also make sure to use all the moisturiser regime every morning and night. I like feeling and looking nice.

I am very happy to look normal finally.

Great to hear from you Cindy - you were one of the first responders when i started. Your are so supportive and helpful. Also removing the facial white hairs with electrolysis - the dark ones were removed by laser a while back - also thanks to this forum, as electrolysis in this part of the world is difficult to find.

Thank you my sister!

I'm so glad you are travelling well.

One thing I do suggest to people at times, and it seems silly given the Hell we can be in.

Occasionally sit back and enjoy how far you have come. It is a sign of your courage and your affirmation.

Hugs
Cindy

You are so right. I see how far i've come and yet how far I still have to go. I do wish I could have started younger but I always look at a cup half full. I'm ever so lucky that I have no financial issues and can feel that the support will be there from my family when its time. I will set up a Trust Fund to help others, less fortunate, going thru this - I feel I need to give back to our community.
