What made you happy today? For mtF members only, please.

I've been home for a few hours and I think the surgery went well. I have a follow up tomorrow so I should get a better idea of how my FFS went. I can see improvement even though I am brushed and swollen.  So happy to have done this

Congratulations! I'm glad everything went well; take care.

Had another! (In some ways it's been a good day.) I noticed some AFABs who seemed to have about the same build as me, including the shoulders. Even if they're really trans they pass completely, so I'm happy. I needed that today!

9 months HRT today.

36A kinda still fits, but the band hovers over my chest. 34B is better. May be time for a C soon.

Awesome. I'm starting to get there. 38C's are starting to fit me better then 40B's but my under chest measurement is 40 and a B cup so sister size seems to fit be better.

Also, passing is so effortless now I even surprise myself. Even on my worst days I'm never called sir or referred to as anything male.

To be honest the excitement of passing is all gone, and it's just life going on as usual now. This is fine. I always wanted to reach the stage of not worrying.

So many things I can say went well today.  First went to gender therapist to discuss plan of attack for coming out at work , change of birth cert and drivers lic. Second got a manicure and a pretty peach color on nails.... first time I got pampered and let some one else do it.  Finally went for dinner with sister and aunt, was mam'ed and ladied to my hearts content by the more than friendly waitress, and had a man smile and open the door for me. It was a day I will remember till the next time I get Sirred. lol

I spontaneously decided to come out to my mom last night, and she didn't completely lose her mind.  I can't say she's going to be supportive of it, but she's not disowning me.

Oh, and she just had to try on my wig. Lol...

Here is a few post FFS pics.  I can already see the changes Dr. Lee made to my forehead and brows.  I can't wait for the swelling and bruising to go down, I'm sure I will love the final results.

[Lady Smith]

Oh you poor thing Jessie, you look like you've been in a fight 

Heal and rest up and keep on smiling, - I'm sure you are going to look great once the bruising fades away.

Mother just decided to give me some of her less-used clothes, including a skirt and even a freaking bra.
And then taught me how to make it all into a proper outfit. Added some make-up, and some hair-care, and....
Result: Feeling (and looking!) like a total hottie.
Easily the best I've ever felt.

Listening to some good music.  When ever i am down and  blue or just want to get lost for a while, i listen to music, it always brings me around. One of my favorite lyrics is


"its only castles burning, find someone thats turning, and you will come around".

[ChiGirl]

Wow, Jessie, I liked to see the other person in that fight.  Seriously, the work looks good and I think you're going to look great when you heal.  Congratulations!

Yesterday, as stated in another thread, I got my hormones.  But another good thing happened.  My dad got to meet Charlotte for the first time.  I was nervous, but he gave me the biggest hug he's given me in a long time.  It felt so good.  He's going to be able to accept me as his daughter.  And as I'm writing this, I'm about to cry.

It is so awesome to have that kind of support from your mom.

[Jessie Ann]

Congrats girl. My dad still hasn't met Jessie and he's still calling me by my birth name. At least he called to see how I was doing after surgery. I'm very happy that your dad is supportive. Hugs!

Well, I did first come out to him when I was 19, so he has had 20 years to digest it. 

It's good your dad called.  Shows that he cares.

Had a checkup with my endo today, I haven't seen him in six months and this was the first time he has seen me with makeup on.

When he walked into the room he took one look at me and said "WOWWWWWW!  You look great!"  Always a good sign, I guess I've changed some. 

We also talked about having my gender marker changed since he will have to write a letter of recommendation for it here.  He looked at me and said that it would "certainly be appropriate now" to do so!

I was having kind of a down day today but that was an awesome affirmation.  Thanks Doc! 

[Dee Marshall]

Wonderful, Emjay!

I received a note from my son today. He wants to take me to lunch tomorrow. That's a big deal for me.

Today I had positive conversations with both of my parents that did not turn into uncomfortable discussions about my transition or gender identity. This is a first since I came out.
