Ok so I took my FFS baseline pictures today. Ouch that still stings. They are brutal. A headshot with hair back and no make up takes away a lot of our gender reinforcing features (breasts, hair over the male hairline, relaxed muscles means no smile).
It was also a good reminder that I need to lose more weight.
And NO I will not be posting those photos. I just needed to share this so I could move on past it.

I took some a few weeks back for virtual ffs and I'm right there with you. I hate being stuck in the middle like this. One good thing is that losing weight doesn't cost much and makes a huge difference whether you have surgery or not.

I become suicidal when I see pictures of the male me. I know exactly how you feel. It's like looking at a person you've never seen. I think TG women have a very clear visualization in their brain of their real female faces and when we see a picture that says we don't look like that and instead look like this man (especially more so if the man is ugly) its absolutely unbearable.
