Buying 3 exercise dresses has motivated me to go outside and walk. Yes, I wonder if people see this T-Gal as just a fat woman trying to stay mobile, or whether they see this T-Gal as a man in a dress. Given that I'm comfortable going outside as a woman in outfits like the photo above, I do so - and no one seems to be batting an eyelash.
I've found that in order for my face to look more feminine, prop glasses (no corrective lenses) are a must. If I didn't wear them, people would focus on the parts of my face where I don't want any focus. (Could facial feminization surgery be in my future? Only RQS will be able to answer that in a few years.)
Over time, I'd like to find an inexpensive yoga studio near me where I could go as Marian and no one batting an eyelash. I've come close, but finding a studio has not been at the top of my priority list. Yet, my goal is to get back to a size 20-22 within a couple of years. To do that, it'll take diet, exercise and maybe a few shots of a GLP-1 agonist.
Today, I decided to take a walk at George's Island Park. I've yet to find the official hiking paths there, but I have found a few vantage points from which one can enjoy views of the Hudson River. It was a little cool for me to be wearing just this exercise dress. Next time, if it is as cool as it was today, I will bring a jacket I bought from the active wear section of Lane Bryant.
After I left the park, I had a nice conversation with TCL. And then I called my brother. I needed to find out the exact spelling of the name my dad used on his passport, so that I can request a copy of his birth certificate. New York City has to do a manual search on birth certificates which have not yet been digitized, as they are in the middle of indexing the entire physical database of vital records and the year of my dad's birth has not been indexed yet.
Tomorrow, it will be dinner with a new meetup group. Wish me luck!
