I know right.  I'm always happy to see other girls pushing a more positive outlook on our lives.  I think the internerdz often tilts to a more negative out of touch view of life.  Especially in the trans community.  So yeah, high five.

Lol, I re-read through your post, and I did match it verbatim!  Yikes, sorry! 

It's like when I started doing my blog here, Meghan's first comment was how it all seemed so familiar, I guess it was very much like her blog.  It's like everyone has lived a life like mine before me, lol.   Yes, I guess I'm pretty common, 'a run of the mill' MtF transsexual,  .  Oh well, I'll quit hijacking this thread, and go back to work!  ooops

A bit late to this topic, but I just wanted to say at the age of 50 and 17 months on HRT pre/op mtf a lot can be done by exercise, diet, corsets, clothing and determination.

HRT did everything I thought it would.  I do think you have to be reasonable.  If you have a body like Rosie O'Donnel, you're not going to take hormones and turn into Michelle Fox.

But it is pretty radically effective IMO.  It just takes a lot of time.  If you look at pictures of yourself when you started HRT, and pictures like 6 or 7 years later, you'll look a lot different.

HRT definitely changed my facial planes slightly enough, and it did give me bigger hips, some small breasts, and my skin is softer and looks a little diffrent.

To me those are really major changes, and all without getting cut up by a knife.

Yeah, but if you start looking as Silvester Stallone, maybe ending looking as Rossie O'Donell is a great progress 

i noticed in alot of your avatars that you have seemingly less brow prominence? is this because of the fat redistribution from HRT?

I had mine shaved off.  Although, my avatar picture is from like 2 months on Hormones.  It was rather small to begin with.

No HRT does not affect bone structure but yes it does redistribute fat somewhat. It think the avatars you are referring to is merely genetic and is the luck of the draw in what you have to work with pre transition. HRT will soften the features a little.
