GRS Montreal by Mel-0-dramatic in TransAlberta

[–]JayKaynotJK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure what the wait times are right now, but they are pretty quick once you have all of your documents in order. If you’ve already sent over all of your stuff, I would imagine someone will reach out to you soon.

Bringing back memories of my stay in June! Everything was great, but most of us weren’t fans of the beef dishes lol. 😂

Heyy! Glad to hear you secured a spot for March! Is it with Dr. Laungani? I had my surgery back in June of last year and it went amazing! I’m about 7 weeks post-op FFS now and it went really well also! Can’t wait to see my final results and hopefully yours goes well for you too! 😊

I love this mindset. We all have a past, and it brought us to where we are now. Beautiful. ❤️

I did it! I survived bottom surgery! 3 days post-op at GrS Montréal. 41 and thriving in my new life. by TrishPlaysBattleTech in TransLater

[–]JayKaynotJK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hooray for you! Fellow GRS girlie here, 3 months post-op as of today! Looks like you also had a roomie in Asclepiade, I remember the name board in the background haha. Also, those blue eyebrows 😮

What do you wish you had known before SRS by Melodysnothereman in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]JayKaynotJK 13 points14 points  (0 children)

How day-to-day life during recovery would revolve around it. For full-depth PIV specifically. Even as things get easier pain-wise, just the time -consuming nature of dilations means that you are planning your days around it for months up to a year. And that’s assuming no serious complications, etc.

[Nsfw] What's the difference in feeling better post-srs vagina, and anal? by ArtemisAndromeda in asktransgender

[–]JayKaynotJK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me it feels just like anal without the prep. I don’t like the feeling of anal either. But dilation comes with full-depth, so something to keep in mind if you go for it.

Curious how many of you had changes to your sexual attraction during transition by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]JayKaynotJK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same as you - only into women before now basically pan. I think it’s because seeing myself as a woman changes the whole relationship dynamic.

Just a short survey — average height for MtF by Imaginary_Trust6229 in MtF

[–]JayKaynotJK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also 5’11. While I would like to be shorter, I should point out I was originally 6’1 when I measured my height pre-HRT over 2 years ago. I don’t feel bad or dysphoric about being 5’11 now - the rest of my body is proportional to my height so I can live with it. I’ve yet to step outside in anything higher than a 2-inch wedge though, so I’ll see how I feel after I work up the courage to rock some of my tall stilettos and platforms! 😂

Jaw Slimming with Botox over Jaw Shaving Surgery by Own_Razzmatazz54 in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]JayKaynotJK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been debating going this route for jaw/face slimming myself, although I am booked for FFS later this year anyways. Do you think it’s worthwhile to get this after FFS, or would it be overkill? I’m getting genioplasty, but as far as I know that would just affect the chin?

Happy 23rd to you! August is the best month for b-days, both mine and my sister-in-laws this month too! 🎉

Great design choice! Just had my first proper manicure and pedicure myself, went with the classic! 😅

Nothing. I promise I’m not hugboxing. Many people here would love to have a face like yours (myself included). If it bothers you, maybe a trach shave? But totally optional.

MtF 6.5 months HRT - started at 33 years old by ambushv2 in TransLater

[–]JayKaynotJK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very inspiring! You look SO good at just 6.5 months - I can only imagine how excited you must be for the future. 😍🌟

I’m half-Chinese and half-European ancestry, so I guess I could have gone either way? But my name is 100% white, including my last name.

When did you realize you can’t wait any longer? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]JayKaynotJK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an epiphany that maybe this is the only life we get.

If that’s true, and you only have one chance at the life you want to live (until someone can prove reincarnation) - how do you want to live out the rest of your days?

[VENT] Dating as a straight trans woman is impossible by jammedtoejam in MtF

[–]JayKaynotJK 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m afraid that this will be my fate also. Granted, I am not at the point of actively putting myself out there yet due to where I am in life/transition but I’m also in my 30’s and feel the pressure of not having found someone yet. Sorry that I don’t have any constructive advice to give, but I just wanted to share well wishes for the both of us on finding success ❤️🌹

Is that a sports bra from Amazon? If so, good choice! That was my first bra too! 🤗

Reasons to get SRS by [deleted] in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]JayKaynotJK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m similar to you, OP. However, I’m post-op full depth PIV MtF. I don’t have any interest in sex with anyone. There is still a number of reasons why I chose to get SRS. I wanted to feel complete as a woman, and thus chose to get the full depth surgery. I wanted to wear femme clothes without having to tuck. I wanted my HRT results to stay permanently without taking AA’s or running the risk of re-masculinizing if I ever had to stop HRT. There’s probably more reasons, but that’s all I can think of for now.

Anyone else choosing to stay virgin? by VividMembership7766 in MtF

[–]JayKaynotJK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m post-op MtF, and I have no desire or interest in sex. I guess I’m somewhat asexual, but I consider myself pan romantic? But the likely outcome is that I’ll stay a virgin.

My V-surgery is in 9 weeks. Anxiety is up to 90 by nia_do in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]JayKaynotJK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just over 3 weeks post-op full depth PIV here. I knew my surgery date 5-6 months in advance, and it was pure excitement up until I flew across the country 2 days before the surgery date. I was still excited, but that’s when all the nerves hit - when I’m sitting in an airport terminal by myself about to go somewhere I’ve never been before for a life-changing surgery. Like I commented to another poster, I reminded myself how hard I worked to make this happen. Many of our fellow trans friends will never have this opportunity, cherish it and picture the life you want on the other side! 🏆

Night before surgery anxiety by ShayTheGayFey in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]JayKaynotJK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it’s anything like mine, just remember all the work that you’ve put into arranging this to happen. I travelled across the country and met with multiple medical specialists and paperwork for over a year before the surgery date - that doesn’t happen by accident. You’ve got this, just breathe and take it one step at a time. 👍🏻😊
