How did you track your transition?

I have folders and folders of stuff. One for laser, one for ID, one for prescriptions, 1 for surgery

Then i have a nicer folder i kept a notepad in that is now 10 pages long that is nothing but dates, appointments and benchmarks. Like it’s where i write every step and appointment or like my bloodwork results, the day i took my injection, everything. I also wrote budgets and goals in the margins. This single notepad probably tracks every step of my transition over 3 years, it was a little bittersweet ending it after my final goal of surgery 7 weeks ago but it is pretty neat to have.

As far as pictures i took them pretty often and kept separate folders in my computer split my month and year which really helped see my progress both in my appearance and my style lol. First year was rough!

I also used a calendar with important things marked on it. I love details though, it was writing these things out and planning my goals that kept me busy and occupied on the future.
