Nice one Liz!!

[Tori]

Jenny, you are such a positive influence. Clearly, genetics are on your side, but I have no doubt your positivity also works magic. Looking good is not always about looks.

liz, my mind is officially blown. I had no clue! Wow, girl.

April Lee, the proof is in the pudding. Ain't it amazing what three months and happiness can do? Just you wait.




Ok, here I go. I try to pick photos with similar facial expressions. Hard not to make a full smile look forced when taking a selfie, so get used to my smirk. Sigh...


Pre HRT.



1st post HRT avatar photo, no makeup, 2.5 months.



1st attempt at eye makeup and andro... a little over 3 months.



Going to rehearsal for "The Vagina Monologues" 4 months in.




Rehearsal the next week. Wig to play with!



Performance ready.



Friend gave me a makeover, 4.5 months.



6 months!



Club Night, 2 days later.



Weeeeeee... being a girl is a lot of work and a lot of fun!

[Shantel]

It is a lot of work, but look at you Tori and look at how far you have come already. 

[Tori]

Thank you so much!

Big hug.

Congratulation to everyone! What I understand now at this point in my transition is that even if the changes are not perfect the most important thing is to be comfortable with our self.


Don't know what people think of me right now but I don't care as I feel really good with myself now. 
I haven't put any pictures with makeup or "big" clothes.
Only neutral pictures to show the real changes hrt has done.

Me at 235 pounds before meeting therapist.



I met therapist few weeks after this picture and a year passed without any picture but I became very muscular in this period and lost a lot of weight.

Then I finally met my endocrinologist and took a picture before starting hrt.
My measurements at this time was 31-28-32



Then 1000 pictures later or 1 month on hrt if you prefer I started electrolysis.



This one was taken by surprise so that's why I don't smile XD. 3 and 3/4 months on hrt.



5 months and a half on hrt.
Measurements are now 33-26-34.
I'm happy with the result I got so far




I'm open for any comments.

WHOA, LIZ!!!

Complete transformation!!! I am amazed as your steady progression.  You are doing very well and I love the natural state in which you shown your pictures.  Taking care of your health is the ultimate benefit to a successful transition, everything else will fall into place.  Please continue to keep us in the loop on your transition.

[Felicity]

Hello everyone,

Just a little peek at my transition so far. I feel like I have a long way to go still, but I'm getting happier and happier with my appearance as the months go by.



Thank goodness for science! :-)

I'll say!!! You are looking marvelous!! You are transitioning well and are very soft looking.  Science is a great thing!!!  Continue to find your happiness, that's what living is all about!  Keep us in the loop on your progression.

Fab, hunny!

Here's a comparison of me at 2 months and at 8 months. At least the twins are growing

[Ellesmira the Duck]

You look amazing. Your eyes really  stand out in that after picture.

Ok a summary of the last few years.
First is day before I got my ears pierced, second day before starting HRT.

Oh #2 that is how my hair started the day I walked into a hair salon and told them I was a transwoman and needed help - goddess what did they ever see in me! I wear a wig in #3

The rest - progress

[V M]

You've come a long way Sis    Great progress

Hugs

[Ms Grace]

@Cindy - someone sure looks glorious... and a lot happier!! Fantastic transition, hon!

[Shantel]

Ok a summary of the last few years.

You look light years younger now!

[Cindy]

You look light years younger now!

I was dying. Now I'm alive.

[Shantel]

I was dying. Now I'm alive.

I know the feeling sis!

[Cindy]

I'll finish my thought.

I really don't recognise that man, he was either a relative or someone I knew who died.

And to borrow another thread.
That is passing.

Fini

[stephaniec]

I was dying. Now I'm alive.

[Zoë]

The thing that amazes me most about the Before & After thread is not just the wonderful transformations (that's a given) but the amazing shift in the happiness/contentment that is so evident in the After pics. Look at Cindy's or Zoe's on this page alone, the sadness and pain and misery is writ large in those before pics...the After pics are worlds apart not just in looks but joy too.

To all of us who have said to cis centric society "I reject your reality and substitute my own" a huge hug!
