Ugh. -.- So jelly of the last 3 posts.

I need to really start thinking serious about this.... To the think-mobile i go!

Three very amazing persons posting almost consecutively. It's not everyday you get to see that.

Amazing transformation JennyGirl!

  Thanks for posting!  Again, you're giving me a peek at my own future because of our similar faces.  The change in facial 'bulk' is incredible but is exactly what I am achieving through HRT too.  I just finished a year of laser and am moving on to electrolysis shortly so I'm hot on your heels.  The appropriate subtlety of your FFS gives me much hope that I too can get by without heavy surgery.

If patience is a virtue and we are all impatient to see changes.
But also that good things do come to those who wait... it out.
Nothing is better than withstanding the test of time

Looking great everyone

Just goes to show us that the self doubt of I can't do that is nothing more than that.

Surprised they don't have a ftm drool thread pointing over here :-)

Today marks six months on hormones. Wasn't sure I'd make it this far, but here I am. It's been a great ride--everything I expected and then some, although pulling the trigger to go "full-time" has taken a bit longer than expected, but that's okay. Planning to do that before my one year anniversary in September.

My official "before" and "after" (yes, that is a wig and I'm okay with that--for now--my own hair is coming in rather nicely).



As an added note I actually had my dark under-eye circles nicely concealed until I had an issue with the mascara. LOL.

Jennygirl as always you give me the most hope I'll one day have a face I can be proud of. Absolutely stunning!

I haven't really done one of these, but this is one of the few pre HRT photos I have left soo. I've been on hormones from May through September, went off for 2 months (and cut my hair), and have been back from November to current time:



Pre transition taken about a year ago): extremely anorexic, extremely unhappy doped out gay boy. Post transition (taken last week): less anorexic, only mildly unhappy, angsty transgirl. Yaaay, it's an improvement!

It's weird cuz it's almost like that person in the 'before' photo wasn't me. Like a very unhappy brother who died or committed suicide so I could live and I'm stuck with his memories..we look like we could be twin brother and sister too. And what's weird is I'm not just being sappy...it really does feel that way. Like I'm an entirely new person and the old one is lost and gone forever. But I think a lot of people feel that way..gender transition is just sorta one pronounced example of the evolutions we all go through in life. Funny the way our oldselves become lost to us as they fade away and die to make way for the new person that we become with each passing day.

I'm looking forward to making another one of these..I'll dig up another photo and make one 4 months from now or something haha. Itll be interesting to see how much I change in that time.

Well, jussmoi, I see you didn't have very masculine facial features, if any. I don't see that much changes between before and now, yet, you *pass*. 100%

Dramatic change from that unhappy, sick looking kid, you look beautiful and so alive now and you are so right on all counts. Keep up the good work honey!

To my eyes, you were already feminine, especially in your eyes and lips, even before transition. Only your hair style seemed to change.

Thought i'd post something up. I still have way a long way to go but i though "why not."

This is me Pre-Everything:



This is after a month on hormones



Aside from having gotten rid of my mug-rug, I did lose a few pounds but nothing drastic. Went from 225 to 203, and I let my hair grow out obviously xD

You lost 22 pounds in a month and you say that it isn't drastic...

Good luck on your journey!

I keep going back to the first photo because it's not only the worst photo ever taken of me, it's the way I saw myself. Obese, broken and suicidal. I now know it was taken within a few months of beginning HRT, July 22, 2011, and when I began living full time only six weeks later. In retrospect, I can't believe I had the courage or naiveté to actually begin living full time so soon after I looked so awful. The second is of me from last week. March 10, 2014. By the way, I've had no surgeries, just HRT, alcohol free for 2 yrs. 8 mo., and 45 lbs. lighter. I was actually 65 lbs. lighter, but gained back 20 lbs. since my brother got sick and passed away, July 10, 2013.
