Thank you so much @Jenniferangelina!  I do try.  I find myself feeling very content giving hope to those that are experiencing the same fears as I had.  Everyday I learn something new and attempt to pass on what I can.
Everyone here is so supportive for each other.  That's what makes it work!

Hi girls 🙋‍♀️ I had heard that there is the possibility that after being on hrt for awhile you could measure smaller across the ribs (band) and waist.  I never imagined that, at least in the chest, I could have that happen.  It has, and I'm shocked.
I have lessened by an inch with the band measurement, along with the same in the waist.
To make matters better, my bust AND my butt have gained an inch in the 8 months since starting, and my thighs are keeping up in proportion.
I look at my figure straight on and it's beginning to become pear shaped.
According to the charts I should be wearing a 38D bra.....
I think it's more like a small C or a large B.
Through these changes I have only fluctuated in weight with a 5 lb. difference either way from my starting weight.

This is great Jessica.  I've lost weight across my chest too mainly because I was fat starting our. I'm so jealous of our progress on top.  8 months and a large B to a C?  Wow!  I'm starting to think all the attempts at DIY may have stunted my progress.  I'm an A and I'm in just slightly longer than you.  I am older though too.  The girls in my family are all endowed even though they are tiny ladies.  It's my age and my DIY I think.  Each picture you put up looks happier than the rest.  I like that.  Bay Area?  That's not too far away:)

you know how far the universe extends outward? i think i go inside just as deep.

10/11/18 - out to the whole world.  100% friends and family support.
11/6/17 - came out to sister, best day of my life
9/5/17 - formal diagnosis and stopping DIY in favor if prescribed HRT
6/18/17 - decided to stop fighting the trans beast, back on DIY.
Too many ups and downs, DIY, purges of self inbetween dates.
Age 10 - suppression and denial began
Age 8 - knew I was different

@Bari Jo, I tried the herbal route for awhile and I think it may have jump started things, but was so much work that it interfered with my life.  Remember ymmv!  The women in my family are large breasted and big butted also, but that doesn't always mean that will be the case with any other member.  I can't compare our ages, but at 61 I cant see how that could make a big difference between us.
I do feel happy most of the time.  This is something that has been a point of contention with friends who are amazed with my spirit, and want to know my secret.  I tell them, it's because I live life.  I don't dwell on the negative and always know that there is positivity surrounding my personal space.
Yes, Santy Annie is just south and someday maybe we could get together!  Jessica

GM Jessica !!!
regarding "..Nothing that is so dramatic that it has changed who I am.  I have lived my life knowing that some of my mannerisms are not what typical males do, but I never really cared.."
I feel you there baby 🙂 Only I stopped caring about 2-3 years into my transition. I stopped caring if some of my "mannerisms" were pretty "butchy" 🙂 As asked my female dentist who owns her own boat and uses it..."am I not allowed to ride my motorcycle or play in my boat and fish and paddle board etc...?" .lol !! Of course not. And I have never looked back. Some guys find me a bit intimidating, but that's just a macho/testosterone thing and easy for me to "allow" them their chest beating and posturing that guys do LOL !!!
I am VERY happy being me and living me, and my devoted partner and our daughter are like wise happy with our home and all of our lil "ism's"  lol
TY for posting this Jess, and for sharing from your heart with us.
Stay salty my friend !!!

Thank you @softbutchharley for recognizing that we don't change our personalities, we amplify it.  Living your life as who you are is the ultimate freedom.

Cool on seeing him in concert.  Here in Vegas they seem to have an oldies group here every week.  Waiting for the HRT to make me young again so I get things for free.  May have to show (or hide) a little leg 🙂

@Cassi, I wished I had known you last November when I ran the "Rock and Roll, Night on the Strip, 10k". We could have met up.

@Cassi and @Jenniferangelina
My walking pace is 12 min per mile.
Running is 9.
Too fast?

I've purposely slowed my normal around town walking pace to be closer to a woman's stride, at least my wife's.

Back in my youth and military days I could do 3 miles in just under 18.  Now 3 miles would take 3 days.

I get tired just looking at my feet 🙂
