Week 11

I have been wearing it on average 9 hours each day. I am down to 25.5", which is only one inch less than where I started almost 3 months ago. I am glad though. I haven't had any bad days for a while. I think being a yoga instructor has really slowed the progress. I work the abdominal muscles pretty well so they resist molding to the corset. I did buy a new one. Haven't gotten it yet. I got a cotton buskless to sleep in. I will post pics when I get it.

ENOUGH!

I've decided to get a new corset. Everyone I talk to says that it should not hurt, and the plain truth is- mine still does. I am still wearing for about 8 hours a day, but I can do no more than that. Last week I slept in it, but by the third night I took it off halfway through. There is one small spot on my back that only hurts when I wear it. It doesn't seem to matter if it is tight or loose. Because I have no intention of giving up, I will fork out the bucks for a better quality corset and get myself measured by a seamstress this time instead of doing it myself. I really wish we had a local corsetier!
