[natalie.ashlyne]

Time for me to post a before and after.  Before is four years ago.  After is this morning.

wow you look great and younger I think there is a trend that HRT it makes you look younger or maybe it is happiness

[Michelle_P]

Time for me to post a before and after.  Before is four years ago.  After is this morning.

KathyLauren, that is a remarkable change for such a short time.  You are definitely off to a flying start.  Oh, and the current hairstyle is very flattering for you.  You are doing very well, and another great example for the 'too old to transition' questioners.

[Rachel_Christina]

I really liked your post Michelle, and yours too Kathy.
That I thought I would go ahead and do it too :')
This is really scarry for me and I may deleate atleast the guy pics, it doesn't even feel like I was ever that person.
I think HRT has been good to me and I will soon hit my 1 year mark
Started at 26.

I have few pics of me as a guy, I hated how I looked, but I tried my best to fill the role




And here I am now much happier




My body, I think has changed.




Never mind the slippers lol


I am very happy with what transition has brought me so far, not just in my physical changes, but in my mind, not that it has changed much in my mind, but I have this huge sense of calm and clarity.
I no longer worry about the future.
I want to return to uni to get a degree so I can get out of manual labour.
I want a nice job wher people will respect me.

I hope my changes can encourage people, because back when I started it was hard to see the girl inside.
I had stopped wearing female clothes when I could only see a man. It was probably 15 year since I wore female clothes, before transition obviously lol

This entire process has changed my life in every way for the better.
I am in no way finished, but it can only get better
Love yas 💕
Rachel 💋

[Rachel_Christina]

Aw thanks Ashley, I'm on the right path that is for you.

And yeah that is a Vat off wine, after the grapes fermented in there for 1-2 weeks sugar will have turned to alcohol, the juice is pumped out, and now I am digging the rest out to go into the press to squeeze out the remaining wine :3 🍷
And thats how red wine goes :')

[Julia1996]

Rachel,  thats amazing. You look really good!

You were making wine?? Why?  I thought wine was made with machines.

Julia.

Thanks for sharing Rachel. It is amazing what you have done. Very proud of you girl for wanting to get an education. Keep rocking it girl ❤️

An amazing transition Kathy. You definitely look better now ❤️

[KathyLauren]

[Harley Quinn]

Pics and Words

I realize how gross it feels looking, thinking, talking about, and remembering the dude we once were obligated being from birth until whenever, but I must say: very handsome.

Pic 6 = slay.  Pic 5 makes me melt; your facial features look amazing front on.  Pic 4 = beautiful philtrum (yeah, I just went there).

Overall, Ya doin' mahvellous dahling!

[josie76]

Wow Rachel C you are amazingly beautiful now. 

ok so I really hope this doesn't hurt your feelings girl, because scrolling through I had the thought pop up about your old pic that "you were cute" followed by a "WTF did I just think"? Honestly though you look like 2 different people.

[Rachel_Christina]

Aw thanks all you guys.
And yes Josie I probably wasn't a bad looking guy. It's funny how that brought me no comfort anyway.
And yes Julia, wine is my job, and it is a big old process :')
It's so funny, if someone showed me a pic of me back then, of me now(present) and said thats you in a few years, I would never believed I could look like that, or have the courage to have gone through with.
I was a coward back then, running away from my problem. Head in the sand was my way of dealing with life.
Thanks again all you fabulous people ❤️

Rachel

Your just so beautiful are you still in the wine business!. Sara

Rachel, I understand that being complimented for male attributes did not give you any solice. A while after posting that comment I started feeling bad about it as I realized that such a comment might really make you feel bad. I hope I didn't cross any bounds but if I did I'm sorry.

Haha oh no Josie, don't worry, I didn't take it bad atall :')
I just mean that back then I knew some people seen me as good-looking, but it never did me no good, I was always still so shy and never acted on anyone who may have been after me anyway.
The whole being male but feeling female really stunted me back then.

I am not the easily offended type X3

[Natalia]

Wow... amazing changes everyone! 

I think I gathered some courage to come back here and post a before & after, now that I am a bit more deep into my transition.

Before: around ~2012 


Today: July 2017

[Julia1996]

Natallia, that's amazing.  How could you have thought your transition was going slow?

[KathyLauren]

Very lovely transformation, Natalia!

[Harley Quinn]

Wow Natalia, I think that the estrogen took hold on you and is doing some work. You look great!
