  1. My latest trip to get a pedicure resulted in these toes.  Very seasonal - but will need to be changed before Christmas. :)

      Dear Dawn,

      As you evolve in your transition, men's clothing will feel more and more foreign.

  5. Stopped for a couple of photos during a recent 5 mile run.  Was a really fun run in my Running Skirts outfit. My wife said just yesterday that my arms really looked even "thinner and smaller; almost no muscle" Yes looked feminine. Dawn :)

      Deni, I used to love to bicycle. I biked 2 miles each way to my high school in Dunedin, Florida. I was on the 2 mile mark where I could choose to bike/walk to school or take the bus. Also, I sometimes biked to work if it was 2 miles or less.  🚲

  7. Hi, I’m Donna and glad to be here! I’m asking for advice from others concerning Breast Forms that can be glued to the chest with medical grade adhesive. I’ve researched on line and there are so many to choose from that it’s a bit overwhelming. I’m looking for quality ones and not the cheapest in price. Any advice, comments or past experiences would really be helpful.

    Thanks,

    Donna

      Dear Donna,

      I realize TGGuide is not very active now, but I have some suggestions for you.

      Google, "How should a transgender/cross dressing woman look for in choosing breast forms?"

      Also, put this in the search box at YouTube.

      Also, on Wednesdays, there is Cross Dressers International (C.D.I.) that meets on Zoom at 7 PM. Even they say "cross dressers" in their name, about half of them are transgender women. You will have to join on meetup.

      Even though your question is about breast forms, there are many other issues about being a woman. That's where TGGuide comes in. I highly recommend you read all the comments in the Forums and Blogs, whether you think they apply to you or not. You may be surprised that you may get a question answered you weren't aware of asking.

      Please consider joining local support groups (many are resuming on Zoom because of the uptick of COVID.

      Also, I know they are somewhat expensive, but gender conferences offer many seminars on all kinds of topics. You could Google, "gender conferences near me."

      Please feel free to ask us any questions you may have. Our members are knowledgeable, kind and supportive. Also our members are of all ages, relationship styles and sexual orientations.

      We are here for you!

      Yours truly,

      Monica

  8. Amazing what a new sports top and sports support bra does for your confidence.  Was hiking in some beautiful weather and felt wonderful as I met several other hikers, all encouraging me on the way.  One guy passing me said. "Way to go gal."  Post workout weigh-in also included in this.  Still 8+ pounds to lose.  But who is counting. :)

  9. 40.000 views - a milestone - again so much has changed since I joined in 2009.  Physically, mentally and even in some respects spiritually.  I feel so much freer to be myself.  Still Wondering where the rest of my life will lead. :)

  10. Had a wonderful day yesterday at the Hair and Spa Salon that I go to - really is a highlight of my month as I usually come out feeling so beautiful.  (Nails, wax, hair and toes) My wife told me to enjoy my good "Girly Girly" Time.  My real hair is the big winner this time.  Now passing shoulder length toward arm pit length.  (My Goal is bra strap length and I only need three more inches to get there). :)

      Dear Dawn,

      Love your blue outfit as well as your hair.

      Growing up, my hair grew to half-way down my back (my term instead of "bra-strap" length.

      Length of hair is predetermined by genetics. Look to the maximum hair length of your mother and sisters to have an idea how long your hair can grow.

      Yours in Sisterhood,

      Monica

  11. My experience at the Beauty Salon yesterday was really great this time - maybe even greater that several other recent visits.  I really love to relate this to everyone; experiencing a day as a woman is always exciting and comforting to me.

    Starting out my stylist told me she really liked my outfit.  It was very sporty, shorts and top were color coordinated and my bra was exposed at the neck line.  As we started the pedicure she noticed my smoothly shaved legs.  More than once she has told me I have near perfect legs and one other stylist in the salon said she wished she had my legs (Pretty, toned and feminine). in the salon It is amazing how much girl talk I have with her as I am sure see sees me and maybe even believes I am a woman she is making beautiful.  I know most people who just come in to the salon think of me as another woman/girl sitting in the stylist chairs.  

    As I had been having trouble with my pony tail bands breaking my hair; I had gotten new bands and the breaking had mostly ended.  This was the day my hair length had finally evened out after almost three months of growth.  Now with it even again I am hoping to grow it even longer.  Mid-back is my goal.  (Photos below.)

    My stylist really worked hard on my pedicure, this time, and I think my toe color is the nicest I have ever had.  She pulled all of the stops making my toes as feminine looking as possible.  The look - She gave my toes a nautical look, sea blue with teal highlights for the beach with five starfishes added to my beautiful multicolored toes.  I really like showing off my toes now.

    Of course she waxed my brows - femininely arched.

    My stylist took several photos of her handwork so I could compare what I looked like months ago.  My hair and toes.  (Photos below.) I walked out of there very much the primped woman.  Yes, I enjoy being made feminine.  Felt like an even neater experience this time. 

    After I finished at the salon I had to take a coupe of photos to let everyone see. For this I went to a park a few blocks away. ((Photos below.)I always like comments)I then went to the post office and the first comment I got from a lady there was "you really look cute."  I thanked her  Then I went to Rural King to get bird seed and to a local farmers market.  I was called mam twice as I purchased several items. 

    As I said I really appreciate comments - thanks for being my friend - love and kisses to all - Dawn

  13. Getting girlified right now - pedicure, brow wax and cut and color.  The full treatment.  Love it. :)  Post Salon - Attached is sporting my post salon look + a new top from Kohl's; gift from my wife.  Felt very beautiful and feminized when I left today - Was called "mam" at a security gate I had to go through; would not have expected otherwise. :)

  14. "You Go and Keep Running Girl"  Quote yesterday passed to me by two women bicyclers who were talking as they took a break by the road.  Even after I said hello(Spoke) to them.  Here is one of the running outfits I wore in the last couple of days. :)

      Dawn, I love that skirt and socks. They really flatter you!

  18. One of my older jogging outfits that I dug out to run 5 miles in.  The biggest difference is there are no breast forms this time,  having grown another half inch; why would I want to hide my girls. They are so much a part of me now.  I feel so free to run as a woman now. :)

      Very interesting border showing a beautiful lady runner wearing my favorite colors!

  19. Latest run as a girl was fun - Ran 5 miles on a heat Index 100 degree day in MO - Stopped by a neat cave to cool off; was glad for the stop  - Noticing my arms a lot lately - so much less muscle and a much more feminine shape.  Will be adding a new herb soon - pueraria mirifica (kwao krua).  Running as a girl is so much more fun these days; yes lots of whistles.  :)

  20. Wow wearing a corset today -  It has been quite a while since I tried one of my corsets on and now that I am losing more weight again I am quite happy with the fit.

    Side note,  I just had a massage and leg wax, two days ago, and my therapist told me my "thin" legs would be the envy of many of the women she does as she made my legs bikini ready, smooth and silky, and she really noticed I had lost weight; called me "stick" person. She also noticed my arms were much smaller.  (definitely smaller, more feminine and less muscular than hers)

    Anyway - So I have a wonderful size 28" corset - Today as I schinced it down I started at about 32" waist and to get to 29.25" was the best I could do.  Still really does change my figure a lot.  Photo below.  Wearing my new Sweetheart Leotard. I have gone about half way now in losing weight to my goal of 138.  I am quite sure I will be able to make the 28" corset size when I get there.  Yes looking more feminine every day and loving it. :)

      Dear Dawn,

      Love your new corset and the complimentary burgundy unitard over it. The unitard fits you like a glove. Your figure is getting more feminine all the time!

  21. Was jogging with two of my girl friends last Saturday.  And a middle aged lady drove up by us and said she said to us "glad to see three pretty college girls out running" was "proud of us" for running.  (Yes, I was one of the three)  :)

  22. Crazy all that is going on now as we are under stay at home rules.  Hoping to hear how everyone is doing?

  23. UPDATED ITEM - Monica thanks so much for your encouragement and complements on my outfits ♥️  l keep looking at myself and I try to see what you see in me.  I am now becoming more aware of how I have physically changed.  My breasts are now real and natural - no forms needed any more. Even though I am heaver than I would like to be I feel I have become softer and more rounded 

    It was so neat to pack almost all women's outfits for this trip.  Did not waste too much of my space with men's stuff. Yes this experience excites and humbles me.  I am starting to be aware of how from feminine I have become.

    So far on this trip I had a younger man flatter me and called me Mamm and direct me to the Lady's Room.  I did not even try to correct him. 

    I am expecting more positive encounters tomorrow. 

    Thanks for being my sister ❤️ Dawn

      Dear Dawn,

      Your salon worker was saying that you look pregnant as a woman's skin improves (softer and clearer) when she is 🤰 pregnant. They really do glow!

      Dear Dawn,

      Don't know if you recall, but we once had a weekly telephone support group.

      Wonder if we can start it again, probably using Zoom.

      Keeping busy with telephone Town Hall meetings, webinars, taking classes, etc.

      Would you be open to a TGGuide Zoom support group?

      Am doing fine. How are you doing?

      Your friend,

      Monica

  25. Tomorrow I return to my normal unisex life.  I have had a great time on this last trip to Florida.  My greatest fun was my time on the beach but I also had great fun at the stores and restaurants I went too as I was addressed as "mam" and "lady" at most of these locations.  These encounters really helped me to embrace myself and how I felt.  It was really liberating the feelings of freedom I felt. At the beach, I was at ease the whole time, aware of my form fitting swimsuit and my tuck made me have the ultimate feminine shape, aware of my long hair as the wind caught it, aware of my shaved and lotioned body, aware of my woman shadow/sillowet on the beach; knowing I was being looked at and coded as a female by all around me.  Yes, I was sure I was passing.  As I walked over a mile on the beach I felt deep feelings and the feeding of my woman inside.  I was quite natural in my walk and most of the dozens of beach walkers I passed would wave or say, "good morning" or "hello." There I was just another somewhat pretty older woman walking on the beach with a slight arm swing and lifted sway in her hips.  I also collected some shells and tested the water for swimming. I did get in knee deep but the water was really cold.  For the walk I had just purchased a really nice swimsuit cover-up.  Because of this, I did fit in quite well with those around me as it was cool 60's and as I mentioned the water was fridged.  Thanks Monica for this great idea of the cover garment.  The cover up I bought fit loosely and was almost a beach dress. With this on I really was able to be myself  - natural and confident and I am sure this is why I appeared to pass so well.

    I did get a little bit of attention, however. There were some work men who I know were looking me over, my feminine radar could sense l was being checked out.  One of them actually called me to get my attention twice.  Because I was on the other side of a work barrier I was able to keep my distance and not respond to his advance.  

    My favorite portion of my 2+ hours of beach time was laying/sitting on my towel and soaking 🌞.  I had a sea gull buddy that stayed about 10 feet away and just hung out with me the whole time.  There were several joggers who went by the "sun babe"  - they all looked and I looked back - they smiled and moved on.  We were all having a wonderful day at the beach. :) Dawn

    I took several dozen photos and will share them soon - sample one below.

      Your photo and letter reminds me of all the wonderful times I had on Clearwater Beach, Dunedin Beach and St. Petersburg Beach, all in Tampa Bay, Florida!
