Voice Changes 3.0 - clips 12 through 19

Here are voice clips 12 through 19. As you can tell there hasn't been much change recently, so I've stopped doing them every week. At this point I've been shooting for about every 3 weeks. Also, starting on November 2nd, I started recording my voice in the evening instead of morning. I think there was a significant difference in how the tenor of my voice sounds.

Clip 12: August 19th, 2009 - 10 weeks on T


Clip 13: August 25th, 2009 - 11 weeks on T


Clip 14: September 9th, 2009 - 13 weeks on T

General Updates

I said I'd try to write more often, so here I am.

This time 2 weeks from now I'll be breast-free. Woohoo! I very excited. Mind you, I'm not excited about having surgery per-se, but I am excited for the end result. I'm also excited that for my birthday in January, I won't be wearing a binder. It's kind of like my first birthday truly feeling like myself. That's one hell of a birthday present.

As I said, my facial hair is growing in which I'm happy about. Unfortunately, it's growing in unevenly. It's annoying, but I suppose it'll get there eventually.

Laura and I have been working out a lot more and I can say that it's exciting to be able to work out and actually see the results in terms of muscle growth. Since starting Testosterone, I've noticed a marked difference in the way my body responds to working out. I love it! I've also noticed that the T has affected how my body distributes adipose tissue (fat). It's not putting it onto my hips so much anymore. I suspect, if I weren't working out, I'd be developing a bit of a gut instead. So, yay! for working out.

I promised voice clips and photos in my last post, so I'm going to try to upload them tomorrow or Friday. My temp job a University of Puget Sound ended without them being able to extend it, so I'll have more free time heading up to Christmas.
