Way to go Sydney!  It must make you very proud to have done that.  Did your status ever come up as part of a defense tactic to try to discredit you?  Having testified only a couple of times before I like asking the questions much more than answering them.

It did not come up at all, they didn't even know I was trans. (Only my client knows and I blend really well.) I did all my document changes over a year ago, so there was nothing to out me to the court or defendants attorney. One of the other witnesses on the defendants side hit on me afterwards while we were waiting on the ruling. He was a creep with some anger issues and when the judge was giving her summary about the ruling, he flipped out (it was his friend that being sued and he was involved in the business arrangement that went really bad) and was thrown out of the courtroom.

It's nice to see so many people using this thread. Life is good & healing up from tummy tuck surgery. I'm looking forward to seeing my new doc in a couple of months to discuss my GRS. I kinda fell off the wagon on my Atkins diet & gained a few pounds but not too bad, I'll start back with low carb good foods soon. I've lost around 25 pounds & look pretty goood really. I'd love to lose another 15-20 pounds for a MBI of 25.

We won a multi billion dollar client today officially.
Big part was the new product I have been working on which clinched the deal.

Talk about a big win

Another client saw it and got very excited by it, called it gold.

It's been very hard work but nearly there in more than one way.

Had my intake yesterday as myself at lgbt clinic and was told by my physiatrist there that as soon as I had couple appts with my therapist that they would recommend me for hormones and that she fully would support my decision for them

The planned surgeon for my GRS is very nice. We talk quite a bit on out FB pages. She has moved to a new hospital for her GRS surgeries & all seems to be going very well. She has several patients scheduled for surgery soon. Appt. Friday for check up on my tummy tuck surgery & hope I'm healing up nicely, it's been around 3 months since surgery. Both docs think I should wait until around 6 months before any more surgery since the areas are so close. They both seem to care very much about my health & not in a hurry to preform surgery unless my body is ready.  I feel good & pretty happy today. 

I'm 10 months on hormones today. YAY!

I got my "letter" from my counselor today!

I went out for the first time "en femme" and got ma'amed twice today.

I had yummy Indian food!

It was a Siggy day....

I love all these great "happy girl" stories, so proud of all of you

Being so happy to see my guy, that his snoring didn't bother me one bit :~)

Finally got my makeup routine down and it looks great! Now just to master the dark art of eyeliner!

There was heavy traffic on my way to work today so I was riding a bit dangerously on my bicycle, weaving through the stopped cars. I decided to do a particularly stupid maneuver while running a red light and cutting off two pickup trucks. As I rode off, thinking about how foolish I had just been, I heard the customary honk of anger in my wake. Then I heard "...you crazy bitch!" Made my day!

Got a "thank you, miss!" out of an older lady I held the door of a store for. When you get "thank you, miss" while holding a door for a lady, THAT'S  a red letter day!

Got my second laser on the facial hair. Stood at railway station with beard and moustache shadow enhanced with purpleness below the skin. Was not giving a damn. Notably, once they clocked me, most people move about their business. And it doesn't take long to clock me when I am like that. Sigh...

Legal name change adjudicated in court this morning at 08:40 CDT.  Hooray!

Yay! Congratulations!

I'm having surgery with Dr. Z next month; finally getting my jaw and chin done, along with a bilateral lower blepharoplasty.

I'm the only guy at my level in my workplace (a bank setting) and my boss thinks he's giving me a hard time when he comes in in the morning and says "Hello ladies." He has no idea that this is sometimes the highlight of my day. (I present male and in a pretty masculine way)

My notice of name change is posted in my local paper! And only twenty six more days till court!

Came back from my doctor today, took some pre-pics for posterity, made a spreadsheet and recorded a ridiculous number of measurements to keep a running log, and finally applied my first transdermal at exactly 1600 local time.

Very, very happy girl 

This week I got long wanted two leather jackets and two pairs of badass pants. First time I possess female leather jackets.W00h00...

Now come the first world problems... won't wear them maybe for months because it is so hot and humid outside... but discount is what matters!

Anyhow, can't wait to see end of the 'short' Amsterdam summer. I hate summers.
