Title: Transition - Two Years in
Post by: allisonsteph on September 17, 2015, 11:17:54 AM
This weekend will mark two years since I have started living as my true self. I began HRT five months later in February 2014. Because the changes that others see can be painfully slow for us to see, I have kept a photo journal to mark my progress. I'm glad I have, most of the time I see the same person I hated for the first 45 years of my life staring back at me in the mirror. The pictures are a good record that changes have happened.

Congrats and beautiful transformation over that time especially the smile in the most recent one. I have been doing the same and every so often I go back and look at the the photos and I'm amazed by the changes even from just a few months. Hugs

Amazing, and proof that you don't have to transition young (although that would be ideal) to to get a good result.

You look beautiful, Allison!

Thank you Kate. I started hormones at 45, pretty late in life, but I am quite pleased with the results thus far.
