I will one day be a STEMhon and as such I have been described in my life as being being meticulous (or maybe more so obsessive) with some things like I have years of somewhat extensive documentation on my arthritis I put together. I am planning on doing a lot of the same while I transition for at least for a couple years while things are changing. I am considering things to photograph, journal, measure, etc. Give me any recommendations you all have.

What I have so far.

Photographing:

  • Face, hairline, hands, body, (probably an area of body hair until I can start shaving or something)
  • Photos of facial hair removal progress once I can (hopefully) get laser

Journaling:

  • Table of HRT changes rated objectively where I can or subjectively if I can’t - Skin texture, oil, body odor, nail changes, onset of ED (hopefully soon I hate the rapestick)
  • Level of dysphoria?
  • ebrickhonOP

    I think my bideltoid would have shrunk more a while ago from losing weight if I had been measuring it. Going on 70 lbs down I don’t have enough fat on my shoulders such that I feel like it will effect much. I have been tracking my weight pretty much daily since the beginning of October when I really started losing weight (was 20 lbs down from highest about a year and a half earlier).
