I'm so happy I could scream! Yesterday was my 2 month anniversary for HRT and the first time I took progress pictures to compare with the ones I took the day I started. I know I shouldn't put too much stock into one series of pictures, but it's insane how different I look.

Obviously the changes are due to a lot of different stuff, like getting a more femme hairstyle, better skincare, healthier lifestyle, more skill at make-up and generally taking better care of myself, but it's unbelievably encouraging.

I hated taking those pictures I took 2 months ago because I couldn't shake the feeling I just looked like a guy, but I still did it because I knew I'd want them for later, and I'm so glad I did. These new ones I wanted to immediately send to everyone I knew and post everywhere because I'm so happy with how I look in them. I've been so careful to keep my expectations in check and not expect to see major changes in a really long time, so I'm just over the moon right now!

Progress pics are always a fantastic idea imo. You’ll slowly see the progress you make through time. Like, I can look at month to month progress for myself and just slowly see the process of the feminization. It’s a great reminder in the future for when you’re feeling extra dysphoric on some days.

For sure! I'll definitely try to remind myself of this feeling those days dysphoria gets me down.
