I started Spiro today 

Only 2 weeks to go until my liposuction & tummy tuck surgery. I so wish this surgery were for my GRS & a nice normal depth vagina. Beautiful day baking some more Oopsie bread that tastes great & also looks good.

Well today was the first time that I was called 'girl' in public! My SO and I were at the tennis club for an afternoon match with two other women. I was filling in for a woman who was injured. I had my sun glasses on and was wearing female tennis top, shorts and shoes. The receptionist  came over and asked which group we were with. Made my day!

Congrats IslandGirl.

Today, on the IRC channel, was the first time I've ever referred to myself as female without feeling self conscious. I actually responded to a few other things before I realized I had done it automatically. I may not look so female, (cause I don't try just now,) but I know what I am!

Today I am happy that I got 2 pairs of black ladies jeans because guys black jeans are hard to find, wasnt planning on it but couldnt resist 2 for 1. I'm happy that the beautiful hair stylist at the salon where I got some shampoo realized I wasn't her average guy and flirted with me. I'm happy I got things done today.

Most of my work day was just me and the other ladies. The guys were in another room on a different project. Plus I got to work directly with the woman who had sent me an email offering to advocate for me at work. She had noticed our bosses slipping on the name and pronoun front and wanted to stand up for me. I get to work with her on a special project this weekend. Sometimes the littlest things can mean so much.

Saw a doctor whom I did not see since November and he thought he was in the wrong room.

Got my hair cut and styled today!

Starting a new thread.  Such an honor.  That makes me happy.

Also, I had my first laser hair treatment AND I got new glasses!  I'm a happy girl!  Although my face doesn't show it.

And weirdly, the sales girl mentioned that something with my eyes was something "a lot of guys get.  Well, a lot of people."  it was so weird that like she was correcting herself.  I was total guy mode, but it felt like I was giving something out there.  I don't know, but it felt goooooood. [emoji1]

That's so awesome! I've had experiences as well in which I was presenting completely male, and it really seemed that people picked up on my identity due to femininity I must have exuded without trying.  The thing that made my very own day today was that my friends and I got carded while buying alcohol at a local store.  The clerk asked for all of our ID's, which is always hard for me, because "old me" is still on there (I looked hyper-masculine back in high school whenever my license picture was taken).

The clerk said -- in reference to me -- "I'm going to keep her license for a second to type in the date since she's the youngest."  Then, she just gave it back to me.  So, I totally didn't expect that.  She was an older woman, so I wouldn't necessarily expect her to gender me as female upon learning that I'm "male", thanks to my ID photo.  I'm kind of thinking that my effeminate appearance has become so overpowering that people can't control referring to me by feminine pronouns.  It made my day so much.

Similarly, I recently had to provide my legal name for an employment training seminar, and the woman inferred that I must be "male" because of my name, and the fact that I checked the box on the application that said "male".  So, whenever referring to me, she kept calling me "he", but it was only because she was correcting myself after accidentally calling me "she".  I explained to her afterwards that I could essentially get murdered if someone learns I'm trans, so please always gender someone based off of their presentation.  But, over all, this situation made my day too.

If any member needs to lose weight the Atkins diet works so well. And there are so many support FB pages with women all over the USA & Europe helping each other look better. I've developed such nice friendships with several women & it is so nice to all learn from each other to become nicer thinner looking women. I am so happy that I started & joined several support groups.

Finishing up my lunch in the breakroom at work the last male in the room got up and left. As he did the five or so women from another department continued to chat. After a couple second they started saying the kinds of things that women only say when there are no men around. It was wonderful to be includedin the girl's club without being a part of the conversation.

I'm officially done with laser!!!  I went to the hair removal clinic today, and the laser tech gave me the good news.  I was actually pretty surprised, since I've only had 5 treatments (3 full clears and 2 only on the upper lip).  Now I just need to do electrolysis for 10-15 minutes every 2 weeks or so, to get rid of the stragglers and some white hairs.

I also got my new passport so now I can travel as me.    It's been a really good day!

That is good news indeed. A smooth face is so nice, lucky girl. My only really good news today is that Okra is an approved veggie for the Atkins diet, love Okra. My 3rd week on the Atkins diet & down 10-11 pounds. Plan to lose maybe another 20 pounds to have an almost perfect BMA number.

When I arived at work today the other woman I would be working with and I went up to the galleries to meet our contact for the event we were there to set up for. As we aproached our contact, who didn't know us, he turned and said "Hello ladies. Are you here to set up the art?"

It made my day!

This massive burger I ate..... <3

I went out with my wife for the first time as a woman which is something I never thought would happen even this year.   It's great how happy I can now feel.  I never thought of myself as sad but, I never knew happiness like this either. 

oh yea, and I got a new swim suit  :-)

I just got a new bra that I ordered in the mail today. It actually fit and can say im into a full B cup. Been on HRT for 14 months. Happy Happy!!!!!!

Made it out for a ride finally.

Did 120km and felt good and dogged most of the damp conditions.
Been sick for 2 months and very busy with work.

Now back to work.
