Well I'm not sure if this is the done thing, but I'd thought I might share some selfies of how things have changed over the last few months... I'm rather surprised now that I look back to be honest.. hormones are crazy! I think a lot of it is just my hair growing out too though : )
Well I have a set of two pics from just before I started HRT (I took them for FFS consults hence the neutral/grim expression), then a pair from two months in on HRT, then a bunch from yesterday and today at three months on HRT.. So here goes..
(I'd better state that I am wearing a little bit of makeup in all pics, even the first set, but it's just the modest amount I go to work with etc, in fact todays pics were taken when I went home from work for lunch :) )
Just before I started HRT (yuck!!!)

I'm also rather liking the body shape/size and skin etc changes.... But the main change is that now I'm almost always super happy! :)
I'm so thankful for all those who make this site what it is, I don't know if I could have done it all without all you amazing people and this incredible resource!

Congrats lemon...that's amazing progress in just 3 months...
Thanks :) you are really pretty yourself I must say! :) I forgot so add, I turn 31 in three weeks, and 4 days before that I'll be having full FFS, so fingers crossed my birthday doesn't suck too bad. It'll be a berry smoothy with a straw 'birthday cake' though I think lol.
Looking good, looking happy :) !. We started at close dates (I hit 2 months yesterday).
Congrats on the FFS, I hope it turns out OK for you. I'll be waiting for mine next year, I've been told I should wait for a year at least. I haven't been able to be as outgoing as you look in the pics, with all the fun clothing and all congrats on that, here it is a bit more violent I think. It's so exciting to think what lies ahead!
Congrats! You seem like you will have a lot to look forward to.
Congrats, you are making great progress, and I can't wait to see your FFS results! Who's doing your surgery?

I've heard of the waiting a year thing, and I would absolutely agree for more beautification surgeries, but I don't think another will affect what I want done with my brow, orbital rims, nose, chin jaw etc which are all bony and won't change, I won't be able to do it next year as I'll be doing some intense post grad study.. So I thought I'd just do it now like I can :)
That really sucks about the safety risk when going out where you are :( where do you live? I'm really proud of little New Zealand from my experiences so far, mostly really positive and nice, even though I'm in quite a conservative and old fashioned part of the country right now :) even the young ruffians I work with have been lovely lol. I hope you can get out there as the real you soon :)

Thanks :) lol, I can't wait to see them to, I just hope I don't take too long to heal as summer is on the way down here.. :)
T-change (Javier Rossi) is doing my FFS, I've been heading some good things recently, so fingers crossed :) I also have a thread in the FFS section which I'd better update soon :) my final wire transfer to T-change just cleared this morning too, so looks like I'm pretty much all ready to go :)
