I am 3 days late from officially making it to Week 1 on HRT, to be exact, but not much has changed in these 3 days.
And to be honest not much has changed since I started HRT, about 10 days ago, which was expected.
The biggest change I've noticed since I last started HRT, is my mood swings. I'm starting to get very irritated by small little things, sometimes things that doesn't even make sense for me to get irritated. I feel like I'm a lot more stressed out, like everything is just overwhelming me. But on the positive side whenever I'm happy, it's intensified. Just today I had one of those happy moments, I thought to myself: I have a small frame; I get complimented on my hair a lot; I'm pretty(at least I think I am lol ;P); I just took the first step on transitioning; Everything is going perfect! Just thinking about all of these things made me feel more euphoric than I would normally.
The other change I've noticed are my nipples... they are a little tender. Not tender enough for me to cry whenever something touches it. But enough to notice something is going on.
The last thing I've noticed is my skin, it feels softer and smoother, maybe this is all in my mind, or maybe the sudden change in my skin care routine, but it's usually at night when I'm in bed that I notice small things like that is happening.

So my height changed half inch up, but that's probably because of the time I measured myself; From now on, I'll measure myself as soon as I wake up, that way I'll have a more accurate measurement. Usually in the morning you're about an inch taller than you are normally, due to gravity and your spine, and such.
I'm not going to lie, I've been slacking off on my dieting, that's definitely the reason why I gained a pound in a week... Chocolate and potato chips are my weaknesses. On the bright side I gained half inch on my hips. Or maybe that's due to me finally going back to the gym.
