    I painted my nails neon pink and literally no one made a fuss about it at school, even the people who I thought would make fun of me for it said nothing about it. Makes me really hopeful that I can transition without getting bullied/losing friends

    Lost a whole 2 pounds this week. I was extra good. Just 15 more pounds to go before I'm at my goal weight.

    A friend of mine told me "Go on, girl!" when I told her some good news.

    One of the girls in my class apologised for calling me olivia, this is after she'd corrected herself and called me Ollie a few times.

    I got to use the actual correct restroom all this past weekend while I was at an Anime Convention, and even got a pin with my pronouns on it.

    After coming out to my wife (who is being very supportive), I've been feeling more dysphoric. I tried wearing my women's clothes last night but just felt like a guy in a skirt. However, I decided to wear panties under my "normal" clothes today, and I feel great.

    That's an awesome step. It's crazy how much more feminine/masculine you feel just by smelling a little more that way. I waited forever to buy deodorant specifically for men for some reason. Though I already presented very masculine already I felt like a weirdo buying men's deodorant so I stuck with unisex until I actually came out as trans. I intentionally smell my own armpits a lot now lol.

    It's true though. I feel way more feminine and "pretty" just by smelling like it. I actually bought the matching body wash(everything is Dove), and was slightly disappointed when the body wash I really wanted didn't have a corresponding deodorant. I have this thing about matching scents, cause I'm always afraid everything will clash and I'll smell funny(it's happened before.) I've been smelling my own armpits too the past couple days.:lol:

    The Walmart I went too wasn't crowded cause it was 10pm, and I went to the self checkout, but nobody cared. At all.
