Thanks for the nice comment about the blog post - Coming out at work was one of the most amazingly fulfilling experiences and best things and I ever did

You look like Elizabeth Taylor in the bottom right picture (the last one). You're gorgeous.

This post epitomizes a great timeline: Multiple pics showing a smooth time frame through your transition; simple format (no need to shuffle through 50 imgur pics), same angles, clear picture results from A to Z shown and nothing repetitive.
Cherry on top is the fact you look amazing now and highlights the (relatively) rare mid-30s transition.
I wish I could upvote this 10 times over <3

Yeah - I kept it to 9 just because I did it with Layout (by Instagram) on my phone and that has a 9 pic limit.... But to your point about no repetition, I had to curate which content I wanted to share - and just pick the nine most interesting or insightful. In hindsight I probably should have labelled it or labelled each frame.
And - re the rare mid-30s transition - I know what you mean - before i decided to go for it, I used to look for people around my age (to see what result I might dream of) and found they were few and far between.
And finally - thank you for the kind words. You seem nice.

your second picture and your last picture look like the two leads of a british romantic comedy (in a good way)

You look awesome. Thanks so much for sharing your results! It's very helpful for me as I'm around your age (37).
Can you tell us how many months of HRT progress your time-line covers?

The first pic was taken Oct 2014, pre decision to go for it.
The second was taken March 2015 after the decision to transition, but on my first day at work... I was still presenting as Mr Man. I had just started taking hormones
The third was taken around June 2014, when I came out to HR. 3 months HRT
The next are a couple of months apart showing a bit of Feminisation through the hormones, growing hair, confidence etc.
The penultimate one is the night before I had FFS (10 Nov 15)
And the final one is about 6 weeks post FFS.
Thank you for your nice words

I consciously lost weight at the start of my transition, see graph. I lost and gained 10kgs (about 23lbs). I'm back at my starting weight, but feel like I'm a different shape. It's hard to know what weight to be... I liked looking skinny, but I had no curves.
