My new suit just came in  - Monica thanks for suggesting it - Will model it soon - Then will have to decide which one to wear on my beach day in three weeks.   Dawn

My wife today told me my breasts looked huge and wanted to make sure I had on one of my better support bras on when I went out to go on a bike ride.  The herbals have really worked.  Will post a photo soon - Dawn

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.

Ran 5 miles near home showing off my new jogging outfit; great fitting Danskin bra top with matching purple running shorts.  Love to present myself as the woman I feel myself to be. Dawn

Repeated to be on top. I was just thinking back today about how confident I was after having this particular salon makeover. Hair, brows and toes (Late Sept)  With only adding a bit of lip gloss I felt like a woman all day and went out and walked around the farmers market knowing that in everyone's mind they only saw a lovely woman.  In fact I barely noticed anyone checking me out at all.  I was just blending in and I was not nervous at all that I would/could possibly be mis-read as a male.  It is days like these that make me wish I could be a woman forever.

Some updates - Neat - My wife just purchased me a gift two new pairs of Hanes Silk Reflection Ultra Sheer hose for an upcoming outing - she was also helping me to find a new blouse to wear that would match one of hers.   Also, on a recent Disney Cruise I was called mam and lady by almost everyone.  For a lot of the trip, they thought there were two sisters together on a cruise. Still in boy mode for this trip but obviously I was looking feminine.  Was wearing a bra most of the time.  Just in the last two weeks; my breasts have been getting noticed quite a bit - My Doctor who I had not seen in about a year in his almost only comment - said my chest was noticeably larger and at GNC the store manager that is a friend and knows me as a boy just made a real big deal about noticing my chest (Breasts) had gotten bigger - he could not take his eyes off my top the whole time I was in his store.

Sorting through all of my Florida photos - quite an exciting story to share - a whole week feeling like and presenting myself as a woman - more to share soon.  Dawn

Still cannot post a photo to the Gallery.  Up-loader does not appear to work for my computer at the Gallery doorway.  But I can load one here.  Just last week I took this photo.

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.

Update on the herbals supplement effect - My wife mentioned that my breasts had really expanded and were now a "hand full" as she touched them yesterday and that my hair has grown to reach the bottom of my shoulder blades.  What I have noticed the most lately is I appear much softer and more rounder lately. My weight is still holding about 160 (Still want to get rid of 15 pounds) but where the weight has moved into my hips and breasts and a layer of softness overall is what I notice the most.  Dawn Wearing a blond wig below but you can see my softer more feminine body. 

Was described as a "beautiful ... lady" last week by a waitress at a restaurant I was at in Florida.  I did not even have any makeup on.  Here is a recent photo of me with my own hair, near the time of this neat encounter.

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) 

Went in to a Horton's yesterday and the woman there said to me and my wife "how are you doing ladies."  I was dressed a bit feminine but not overly so.  Still being coded almost daily as a woman and I really an not trying to go out of my way to make myself look like a woman.  Dawn

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.

A little about myself – Part 1

I am a happy male who has been mistaken, even wearing male clothes, as a girl most of my life. Several doctors and other people in the know have told me I have a feminine bone structure and body characteristics. A few years ago, I took female hormones and had some laser hair removal. I have since stopped those treatments.

A new name this weekend - Called "Babe" by one of the life guards as I was heading for the pool.  My hair was in a pony tail and I was in red biking outfit.

AmazingCKLOve,

Welcome to the group. I too have similar feelings and experiences. Please feel free to view my profile and you can know me better. What is the CK? part of your name if you can tell me. Writing from Germany - as the snow is falling outside.

Amie, let me know if you have a name in Second Life. I could add you as a friend and maybe we can meet there. See my latest post in SL.

Amie,

Look at my post to your Photo experience Blog. Sub: Suggestions about my bikini shoot. Cheers.

Bonnie if you get a chance to log in to SL - I asked if you would be my friend.

Bonnie, (I tried to send this in a message to you but was bocked)

I want you to know I am thinking of you and your family. If we never meet in SL - but you worked out things with your family - it would be OK - Actually great! If there is anything I can do let me know. Dawn13

Called a lady at a running expo - I think both my hair and body contributed to the comment as I was wearing normal male clothing.

d18,

Glad you have joined the group. I see you visited my page. Have a great day and best wishes. Dawn13

Early August - Called ma'am yesterday - The guard corrected himself when he heard my voice. Riding in bike day tomorrow.

End of July - Rainy today - Ready to wear my women's Levi 519s stretch jeans today to all of my outings.

First July Thought -Almost Summer - Still cool here - Got a new vintage leotard yesterday - Just love the colors and the nylon feel.

Ears just pierced, wearing two small Zirconium ones - Hard to believe I waited 6 decades to get this done - What a feeling of freedom.
