Yeah, that's a spectacular transformation Talim! (Is it Talim or do you still go by Keaira?)

Love your hair color too ^_^

I was going to try to wait until I hit my 10 month HRT mark, but I was updated my timeline and decided I couldn't wait >_<

February 2014.



April 2014. On the bus. Really depressed at this point and trying to make the final fight against transition, interlaced with realizing I couldn't fight much longer. I almost feel like crying seeing the misery in my eyes looking back at this old photo.



April 2015. 2 Months+ HRT. First makeup try, I'm feeling WAY better. It's scary moving forward, but scarier to turn back. Never going back.

Wow, you've made amazing progress in such a short time on HRT and you definitely do seem much happier in your last picture. Though if you're like me, smiling in selfies can be oddly challenging >_<
Edit: Love your outfit and your hair style too, I tried to do something similar with my hair back when it was shorter, but I think it turned on better on you =P

Amazing Teg!!  Can't wait to see what changes will be coming the next 5 months.

Hi all!

It's been a while since I posted, and today is my 5-month mark on HRT.



I really like that dress.

You do look so much happier in the last photo. Good luck with your future development.

Danielle what a truly amazing transformation. You are becoming a stunner. 

Here's some pictures of my transition.  The first one is while I was still in denial, early 2013.  Second is when I accepted being trans, shaved my face and decided I was going to start transition, late 2013. Third is right before starting hormones, mid 2014.  Fourth is two months on HRT, November 2014. The other three pics are from the last couple days, 6 months hrt 

[Jessie Ann]

I can't wait to see what HRT will do for you. You have an incredible start.

The neverending journey. Still pre-HRT. Now full time at home and around friends/family. Still too scared to go out in public yet. Getting more confident with my makeup though

2004	JAN 2011	AUG 2014, Just came out to the wifey	SEPT 2014. First try at makeup	OCT 2014

Alaia I hope I can look half as good as you do after a year of HRT.

Ahaha, I forgot to post my 1 year HRT update.   

Anyway, here's my before:




And here's me 1 year after starting HRT, wearing the same shirt and no makeup or anything (trying to pass as male and pretty much failing lol ):




And then of course, when presenting as myself (pretty much all the time except around my kiddos  )

[Mariah]

Thanks Jessie Ann. Yes indeed. I love the changes.
Mariah

Fantastic changes Mariah!!

Beautiful transformation so far. Good luck as you continue. I know what mean and I would never turn back either, hugs
Mariah

Thank you so much! <3 **hugs back**

Thank you!!! Yup. My life is laced with false smiles in photos. I'm not big on smiling. Never liked to do it.

Haha, I guess I lucked out there. My hair lays like that naturally. So it doesn't take much to do that. I just need to use dry shampoo from time to time cause it gets oily.

You do look so much happier in the last photo. Good luck with your future development. 

Thank you! I am indeed much happier.

  Hi! Ok, this is not a true finished product of a before and after (in the sense of drastic) but I still thought it was fair enough to show myself in 2013 and just last night. Send me your thoughts:


March 2013 at 350 Lbs (Or just about) Pre HRT, Pre Anything



Just last night riding the BART to and from Richmond,CA (Walmart)




I have had just 6 months of hrt, and a small amount of understanding of makeup and clothes on the female side. Trimmed eyebrows also along with hair getting longer and a cute hat. So how am I doing?

[Mariah]

A big difference between the two. You have come along ways and in your transformation so far shows it.

Thanks Jessie I'm sure you'll do great, it's amazing what changes can be brought about in just a year. ^_^
