Hi all! Im rounding off my 3rd month on hrt, and havent been on in a while, so thought id give an update. Im at the point where things are starting to grow and others shrink. Ive gained about 20lbs, though i blame the holidays, my inability to put down the fork and lack of exercise. My butt is definately getting rounder. Disproportionately so for the weight i put on. But more importantly.... im growing boobs! Ive got a decent A cup going on now. To the point where if i dont wear a sports bra at work im accidentally knocking my nipples into things. Very painful. My wife likes playing with em too hehe. Also, my skins most definately getting softer all around. I still need to shave everywhere, but when its all done, my skin feels so silky. Loving life right now. Ciao for now!
Thanks for spreading the good cheer! I'm really happy for you!
Hugs, Devlyn
Thank you! Ive got so much going on lately that i havent been able to really concentrate on me, but i think once all the nonsense blows over, im gonna find an electrolygist and truly start my transition

My philosophy is that during the immense changes to the body caused by HRT, it's wise to give the body what it needs in terms of nutrition and relaxation. Before transitioning, I was obsessed by my diet and exercise, and I would fret over every pound. I've also gained about 20lbs over three months of serious HRT (instead of low dose), and sure, some of it's the holidays and the cold weather making it hard to get outside and run. I try not to overdo things too much in the eating department (although I don't hold back like I used to), and I still try to exercise when I can (although I don't freak out if I don't run five miles a day anymore), but the weight is creeping upwards.
But who cares? I'm still in the healthy range, so bring it on. Seeing as much of what makes girls look like girls is fat in the right places, I see nothing wrong with adding a little here and there, and it certainly helps the boobs grow and the backside get plumper. I'd much rather be a curvy than not.
Congrat on the boobs! Wonderful, aren't they? And yours sound like they're coming along very quickly indeed.
This is great news to hear! Hope all goes well.
Thanks! Im pretty excited, and aside from hiding em at work, they are fun to play with. The 20 lbs wouldnt be a major issue if i wasnt already over 200. Im 5'8 and currently 218. Im planning on taking up parkour and getting back into martial arts when the weather warms up. Though i doubt ill be doing any shoulder throws at that point. Itll be 6 mos by then and im already losing muscle. My arms look girly unless i flex. If i flex its still got a hefty curve.
