You have come a long way baby! And your looking amazing.
Phew, your breasts are way to perfect!
I think if you find a place to do a makeover and get your make skills up to snuff you will pace with no trouble at all

Connie, hon, don't you know I'm a sucker for being called like this? Oh dear... Here you go:

  

They show indeed. How do I manage in public? Sometimes I'm hot and sweating and the bra's about to strangle me dead and I wish I could disappear so I pretend everyone else has disappeared. But more and more I'm able to enjoy the situations and the attention. Not despite I'm dressed en femme and obviously transitioning but because of it. There are some recurrent situations in which I was always an uptight, serious mask of a man and now I just smile, laugh, talk... An unforseen miracle. 

But I suppose you're after how the public manages me. I don't pass for a woman and the way I'm going out these days I don't pass for a man either so the public has a nut to crack. Most don't react in any apparent way (or are just slightly more reserved) though I've noticed some tendency to avoid gender specific word forms which are more prevalent in Czech than in English. I've encountered some cheerful acceptance, mostly among the younger people of both genders. They seem to be genuinely pleased by me being so boldly different, which is of course a big boon for me. Some elderly ladies watched me with harsh judgment bordering on disgust. Some seem to be ready to burst out in laughter (only kids did so far and I'm usually able to laugh with them. Sometimes I'm awkward and they feel embarassed and sorry for me, damn, that's the worst. The strongest negative reaction so far was the concierge's "(Lockers are) For women only!" with obvious dislike and intention to put me down to my proper place. That fractured my plans to try to introduce myself as a woman that evening right at the door and I run for a glass of wine immediately.

I'm probably jumping a gun with these observations and generalizations, because in the summer I pushed it too forcefully and now I'm attempting more "in sync with my feelings" approach for what, 10 days? But I love it and I'm so happy I found the guts to embark on this quest and I do believe in the end all will be good for me.

I could spend the whole day writing about my transition, but I guess the steps and underlying emotions are shared among girls and it has all been said a thousand times before.

Agreed, definitely looking very nice dear!

OKI, you seem so close to a successful transition that I'm sure by next spring you will have made it. Your figure is surprisingly feminine and thats usually a difficult thing to manage. Makeup skills are next and if you have not started laser beard removal- its time. Also hope you vcan manage the eyeglasses- they seem soooo heavy on your face/

[oki]

Hey you, thanks for the encouragment! I'm happy you like my girls and double happy you like my writings:D. Here's to more of both, ha ha.

Julie, they don't vanish but I'm not gonna make a pic. Too bold! Sorry O:-).

Connie, two new pairs of glasses should be ready next week. One is violet and one almost invisible:). I'm also toying with contact lenses but the discomfort is not worth it I think.

And a makeover? Let's see what can be done about that:).

OKI- get the soft contacts. There is no discomfort at all. You will not know they are there. I've worn them every day for 25 years.

I'm on a break from all the supplements at the moment, but I have wanted to review my regimen here for a couple of weeks, therefore here goes, per day:

Ainterol PM capsules or powder 3x500 mg with a calcium tablet
Reishi alcoholic extract 3x15 drops plus either 1xBaldwin's capsule or 2xWells Roots of Being tablets from Ebay
White peony Baldwin's alcoholic extract 3x20 drops
Oxford Vitality green tea extract from Ebay 2xhalf a tablet
Evening primrose oil 2x a teaspoon
Coconut oil a teaspoon
MSM cca 3g 
A multivitamin pill
Ground blessed thistle a teaspoon
Lemon water
Spearmint/hops/red clover infusion
Olive oil>aloe vera gel>Ainterol PM cream>Ona's Natural progesterone cream massage

I dropped fenugreek just because it would have meant fourth daily dose of a phytoestrogen and I missed the womanly floral smell :'-(. Did not miss the abominable taste! I dropped subliminals and nipple suction, although I'm a believer in both. Suction does wonders for sensitivity and I would say even growth.

This regimen have been giving me horrible headaches in unpredictable patterns, so I was very happy to finally obtain finasteride (1x5mg) and replace all GTE and most reishi with that. It's tricky to judge, but I would say finasteride worked better. Finasteride reduces DHT levels by around 70%, while reishi supposedly by up to 90%. I guess the astronomically expensive best japanese reishi might be that good, but my supplements were nowhere near.

It's said a person has about a 2 year window to grow breasts after the introduction of female hormones. That would mean my time is running out, but after half a year of subtle changes only, I seem to notice some filling in the upper part of the breast. Awesome, at this rate I could sport a natural cleavage in say, three more years?:D And I can now confirm: I'm bigger than my sister. It even came to the inevitable: her asking me for some tips for growth, how's that?:P

The best is this is the first time my breasts complement my femininity, that they feel like the in-tune part of me. So far I've been mostly a guy with boobs, they were a yardstick of my progress and regimen efficiency. But gosh, do I need them now, with clothes and face still only so-so despite the best effort, the darlings add a ton of validation to my womanly aspirations.

Or at least this all was true a couple of weeks ago. I stopped all the supplementation because of the pre-HRT blood tests and sperm freezing in December. Sooner than I had planned, but I was feeling bad aka manly lately anyways so I went for the big break.

Hi ok I

I would not worry about the 2 year window 

Lots of girls have large growth spurts many years later , usually on a change of regime 

Many have lots of growth after going to injections

I sometimes wished I could go on injections.  Even though I only have to re patch every 3 - 4 days.  It would be nice for like a once a month injection.

I haven't yet acquainted myself with specifics, but where I live the pills are the default and quite possibly the only realistic option. I don't need huge tits anyway. Just a liiiitle bit more wouldn't hurt though. Well, is there such a thing as total contentment with one's body? 

But one important thing I forgot to ask: any Londoner out there who might wanna meet for a chat?
