Hi everyone, It's my Birthday!!!

[SarahElizabeth1981]

That is really awesome Tasha. It makes it so much easier having friends and family that are supportive. Yeah drunk facebooking isnt usually a good idea but atleast it didnt go too badly.

I normally drink at least a liter of water a day although I don't think I've been hitting that for the last few days. Until today anyway. The headache is gone so perhaps it was a lack of water thing. but im still going to up my water intake and try and get 1.5 liters a day plus my tea.

[Tasha_]

Lol... ya, I think it can be worse than drinking and driving lol.... but you are crazy... on a slow day I drink 4 liters minimum.... up to 8-12 on crazy hit days (I truly pee like a girl o  those days.... every 3 minutes!!!!) Lol

[Dena]

Normal fluid consumption should be 2 liters (quarts) a day. With Sprio you should consider 3-4 a day and more if you are sweating it off. I have done physical labor in hot climates and without a diuretic I have gone through 8  liters a day. In addition, in a hot climate you still find you don't need to pee very often.

Hey all,
Thats amasing new about your coming out Tasha, sometime alcohol can be a good thing for this, sometimes we just need the extra courage from it!
Your really lucky about your dad, did you tell him face to face?
Great new too Jenny, I want to see these photos!
And congrats to you to Amber on the baby boy, you will have your hands full these next few months! :')
Thats insane about the water situation, I would drink hardly a liter a day, I have been trying to drink more though!
Must look into what I should be drinking...
A couple of weeks more waiting too for me.. its really dragin at this point now though!
Stay strong girls!

[Tasha_]

No, he lives a couple hours away, and we really don't talk much because I'm busy and forget, and he just doesn't call.... but I agree about the courage thing, well more like I was drunk and figured "->-bleeped-<- it".... if it's too hard to deal with I'll say it was a joke.... but the next day when my wife told me about it I was just like "I did that? Well at least it's out there"..... only one person has been mean, and I not only don't care about them, but, it really didn't bother me.... the most clever thing he said was "don't get caught in the girls bathroom".... the guy is a blissfully perfect picture of ignorance.... my friends and family told him off, and I simply removed him from my facebook.... so, not too bad really..... anyway, gonna paint my nails.... night ladies!!!!

Ah the joys of alcohol I remember some if it well (don't drink anymore but drank enough in my 20s for several lifetimes). One of the few things that could screw up my brain enough to make me seem almost normal. Could even fit in with my family when trashed but think that says more about them than me lol. Good times too though with my 1 friend who was my gateway to the universe as he knew everyone, games & fun plenty stories to reminisce about.

Great when alcohol has positive results though instead of say waking up in the snow miles away from the pub you went to with shorts, tshirt and a half eaten kebab........ what that hasn't happened to us all

Fantastic that your real friends are now known and on your side. You must be feeling absolutely amazing with all that extra fear being taken away ♡

[Rebecca]

Fluids I have a minimum of 1L unsweetened almond milk, 1L water and at least another 1L of redbush tea per day just via daily routines. Apart from that if I get thirsty I drink more. Fruits, soups etc can also contribute a little but sugars and salts lower their values a little.

Not much sweating to be done in Scotland though so probably need more in hot places.

[Jenny0713]

Hey Tasha. I told my sister that I painted my toe nails and she said "We don't paint our nails, we polish them". I said oh, sorry I polished them then. Lol

I definitely need to start drinking more especially since I am on spiro now. I don't drink near enough apparently.

Getting ready for the photo shoot today. Can't wait. Pictures will be on fb when I have them.

Have fun

Hi girls,
when I read

anyway, gonna paint my nails.... night ladies!!!!

I started to laugh tasha. its such a girl thing to say and it sounded so casual. which is great.

So from all my research the rule is half your body weight in ounces of water per day. That is just the base you then need to add as much as you sweat out during the day. I never used to sweat that much even when doing cardio but today I'm all sweaty and that's just going out on a warm day. Maybe because of the spiro?? I dunno I hope not, don't really want to be all sweaty and smelly all summer. take care girls I'm off to see Independence day

[Tasha_]

The ladies in my life say paint.... that's where I picked it up... regional probly... so.... since I came out publicly to everywhere accept work, my sis-in-law came over, and I met my wife's high school friend as Tasha.... I am feeling accepted and loved like no other today!!!

[Tasha_]

Unless I cut off my penis and leave everyone I know, I will never be a woman

[Jenny0713]

Glad to hear you hate having a good time. Just kidding on the painting of course.

Man or woman is what's inside. My suggestion to people is if I body swapped them and they woke up in a body of the opposite gender would they consider themselves to be male or female. Thus far everyone states their preswitch gender then starts to think about how nobody else would believe them which is good for them to consider

The body itself can be rewritten to a point and finished with a scalpel depending on what you WANT to do with YOUR body.

Its amasing how well everyone has taken your coming out so far Tasha, just shows you, you never know what people will do!
I had another consultation for lasser yesterday, it will cost me 450 a session, and may take up to 10 sessions!
It will be worth it though!!
And i don't have to let my beard grow! :')

[Rebecca]

Yay you for starting laser

I really enjoy my laser sessions and hope you do to.

[Rachel_Christina]

I know Jerrica, its so exciting! :')
I could here a woman screeming in pain though in the next room,
Though I have a massive pain threshold
But that will drop with hormones too!

[Rebecca]

Yeah started like that too just didn't really feel anything but as time has gone on it has gradually got a little bit ouchy at times. Hopefully my laser like electrolysis are nearer the end than the beginning.

But like I've told them both if having my face set on fire then put out with a cricket bat would achieve my objectives I'd do it.

I'll happily take any pain and smile so long as it gives results

[Jenny0713]

I am doing laser on my face too. Had my first session last Wednesday.  Haven't seen any results though. Hopefully I see some soon. It was only the first session so I am not expecting much yet. Good lock you all.
