Well I'm past a year now on HRT. I do see some changes. I see my mom in my face more than my dad now. That's actually really nice. At the same time it's hard for me to see real changes. Body wise I know I lost a lot of upper body muscles for sure. My fat it seemed all kinda dropped to my belly at once.
Anyway heres my timeline so far everybody!
Me about 11 years ago or so. I think 2006

I didn't smile often but when my kids are silly....2014
I actually have a hard time finding pictures of myself with the beard. I wasn't into taking selfies.

Last fall. Nov 2017. I was finally able to put my hair in a ponytail for the first time in my life. I always wanted long hair.

But now that my spine surgical scar is healing I hope to get back into walking or even jogging again someday. Being stuck on a couch for months due to the pain, well I added another 30lbs. Now at near 230! I want to try to get down to 170lbs. Thats my goal anyway. I have to wait for some nerve regeneration to happen first.
