What in your transitioning has been the nicest result for you so far?

What has pleased you the most, what have you liked the most, what has given your reassurance that transitioning has been so far the right decision for you?

Please note that it does not matter how far along you are in your transitioning to share your thoughts on this.  You may wish to inform how far you have come along with your transition journey if you think that will help others understand or better put in context what you share.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

For me the best result has been FFS for sure. Without I'd be way off where I want to be. Really though just being able to dress as a woman is the most rewarding thing overall and gives joy daily. I'm 15 months since egg cracking and starting HRT and fully presented from day 1.

Kicking out the evil twins back in 2010.

I remember a couple of months after the surgery, I had fully healed, and I was sitting on the floor. I was playing GTA: Liberty City Stories. I was listening to Radio Del Mundo and grooving while doing a late-night cab run. (Both in real time and in game time.)

After dropping off a fare, I stood up and stretched a bit. Once I sat back down, it hit me: Totally smooth feeling. I had never noticed just how friggin' uncomfortable sitting on the floor was when I had those stupid things. I'm glad I got rid of you jerks.

Post-orchi, my face changed a decent amount. I remember when I updated my ID in the summer of 2010, since I was allowed to update my gender marker. THAT was an insanely awesome surprise. I remember skipping down the sidewalk. LOL People probably thought I was insane.

When I got the new I.D., I put the 2 photos side by side, and it was wild. It looked like I had mild FFS. I was ecstatic.

I have to say, I think that I am pretty damn cute.

You probably are very pretty!  So nice for you.  Thank you for sharing.

Because I was active on this site, a woman stalked me down. Then she married me and brought me to England. And then Spain. And then England again.

Therapy was my biggest ally. I had a great medical team who were very supportive in every way, even when I was still questioning. Therapy helped me to see why I was so miserable, why relationships failed time and again (including three marriages), and how my role pretending to be a male was working against me.

Once I realized that this is who I am and accepted that, I relaxed. I no longer felt compelled to behave in a certain way. I began wearing women's clothing because it was more comfortable. Not just mentally, but physically, I felt comfortable. That further helped me relax and be myself.

Currently, in my personal life, I don't think about gender much, if at all. I just be me. If others are obsessed with what they think I am, that is not my concern. They can waste as much of their lives worrying about such things as they like. My life goes on, and I don't plan on slowing down just yet.

I still have things I want to do to make me feel better about my appearance. Electrolysis seems to take forever, but I am not a social animal, so I am content to just hang out with myself and do my thing.

Trigger warning: a person with fairly low self-esteem boasting about physical attributes

People who know me and have seen me would laugh at this, because we all know...

It's my breasts. They're 100x beyond anything I could have imagined. They're a work of art. I thought they'd grow a little - they grew a lot. I thought my nipples/areolae might enlarge a bit - they're large and dark and very feminine. I hoped they might not be droopy and/or pointy - they're round and full. I have been blessed.

Other nice results:
I gained 15-18 pounds in 24 months after years of trying
My behind is much larger and rounder
My thighs are much thicker
My sinewy, thin arms turned into soft, feminine ones
All hair in non-male areas (except my face) has completely disappeared
Hair on my arms and legs has thinned significantly (especially my legs)
My equipment has shrunk a bit while remaining operational. This is something that I find affirming
HRT, FFS and rhinoplasty have made my face softer and more feminine-looking
My skin is extremely soft to the touch and is very sensitive
HRT regrew about 25-30% of my frontal recession and all of my crown loss. Hair replacement surgery restored my hairline. Hairline lowering surgery helped further
Clothes are so much more fun now. I like clothes because I like my body.
I no longer feel the need to assert my maleness. I no longer wish to compete or to perform masculinity, which I found pretty tiring. I'm physically weaker and it doesn't bother me at all
It's acceptable for me to show emotion, empathy and sensitivity

The term "HRT is magic" is often used in trans spaces. This is why.
