I feel ok with how things are going! I was surprised to find that I am a little more than seven months into HRT. I've had the expected breast growth and noticeable face rounding, some hair reduction, much softer skin, but I'm admittedly getting impatient for more body fat redistribution because this half way zone is awkward to exist in lol. I want to wear crop tops with confidence! Not there yet, tho. Still, things are looking good and I have a long road yet to go. I feel accepted and supported by the people close to me, so the awkward phase is more than tolerable!
