Corset Training - Part 2

`

13/12/16 - Still no news from my first corset supplier, I sent them an email and I hope to hear back soon.
I have found a new supplier (based in my country!) and have ordered a x-8 corset from them :)
So I either have one or two, two being a much better outcome.

24/12/16 - The corset from the second supplier arrived today! 
It is lovely!
But it will need to wait until I return from Germany, I don't want to be in pain while overseas.

25/12/16 - I asked S about her corset. She has only worn it once since she got it. On the second wearing, she found the bottom fastener to keep coming undone. 
Whether it was faulty or just being naughty that day, I cannot say.

27/12/16 - I re-read my first part of this series, it sounds very negative! Oops! 
I really do need to mention the positives:
 - no more never pain.
 - I sit so straight.
 - I like the way it looks.
 - People can't punch me without hurting themselves.
I guess I just didn't want to sugar coat it.

28/12/16 - I wore my corset on the outside so it was easier to remove for going through airport security.
As I laced myself back up, I was daring anyone to complain to me about the inconvenience of removing their belt. XD

13/1/17 - Sent a request for a refund from the first supplier... I don't think I'll ever see that corset :(
I'm not holding my breath for a refund either.

16/1/17 - I'm going out tonight without my corset. When looking in the mirror, I can see how much straighter and flatter my back is now!

17/1/17 - I have put on the x-8 corset!
It feels so strange and the aches have started already.

Excuse the overexposure.

18/1/17 - The first night was ok, but it hurt a lot today.
I'm a little pot of Paracetamol, Imodium, and Gaviscon.
My abdomen is tighter than my rib cage (because I don't and the ribs super tight) and I can't stop using the bathroom!

This image seems too graphic but also accurate.

19/1/17 - It felt like I had period cramps all day. Not the worst period cramps I've ever had (like a 6 out of 10, 10 being the worst I have experienced), but enough to have be hunched and occasionally "labour breathing" (breathing like I'm trying to tolerate contractions).
My family keep asking me why I am doing this and keep telling me to take it off.
I can't eat too much at once.

20/1/17 - I have made the top half more fitting, my abdomen is still sore (like cramps).
I have found it is worse in the morning. As I move around, the pain becomes less troublesome.

21/1/17 - Today was really good! Not much pain, I could move around and to all the things I wanted to do. :)

22/1/17 - Virtually no pain, my torso has adjusted quickly. 
Pain is a 1/10 :)

24/1/17 - I have a lot of flexibility back (corsets have to be 'worn in' it seems).

27/1/17 - I thought I had just forgotten my meds the night prior, but no, I am sick.

I took off my corset for a bit to help reduce the fever.

28/1/17 - Not corset related, but I have a boob (pectoral) cramp from coughing. A BOOB CRAMP!! 

1/2/17 - I miss my corset so much! Go away stupid bug!
I have to wear bras... BRAS!
Ok, I've put the corset back on... damn I missed it!

2/2/17 - Ugh! So I'm going to throw out the name of my crappy supplier #1.
NEVER buy from Breathless Corsets!!!!

9/2/17 - I'm starting to think about getting a custom corset in the future.
One that is designed tighter around the abdomen, but further curvature for my hips.
Otherwise, my x-8 is going strong!


11/2/17 - Supplier #1 did contact me finally.

As you can imagine, nothing came of this (future me typing here).

2/3/17 - I now often take my corset off for a night out, but putting it back on feels so comforting the next day :)
I'm so grateful my neuropathy is controllable now.
I can do things, I can plan for a future, I have hope.
(that sounds tacky, by for a while there I didn't see a great deal of future ahead of me).

13/3/17 - The last few days have been quite hot and humid, not ideal corset wearing weather :(

18/3/17 - I have noticed that my arms are getting stronger, because I can't use my core muscles as much.
My biceps are stronger and firmer.

20/3/17 - I have ordered a x-12 cincher. 
When I am with PB I like more freedom, so this will give me more freedom of movement.
I'm going down in size because it won't be on my ribs (I don't want my ribs smaller, I need the lung capacity).

24/3/17 - Doctor's tests are in, liver and kidneys are perfectly happy and healthy.

25/3/17 - I'm really looking forward to getting the under-bust corset.
My shoulders have been hunching up of late (I've been having a bout of muscle growth) and they will feel less tense with the increased freedom.

I haven't been training by the way, my muscles just have these bouts of growth.

31/3/17 - I moved into the CS-426 short corset from Orchard Corsets (corset #3) in a x-12 waist.

It is an under-bust, leaving my shoulders with more room to move (and grow) and my ribs are no longer bound.
I will miss having my boobs pushed up, but it is better for my ribs.
Also, it allows me to go down to a smaller waist!

This corset also has a greater curve, giving more hip room with a smaller waist.

3/4/17 - Another day, a little bit tighter!

My hips are enjoying the increased freedom and my posture hasn't gotten worse (I guess helped by muscle growth).

*******
The muscle growth continued and since moving to Germany, I have stopped wearing the corsets.
My arm had become very strong. 
Not perfect, but much stronger.

I would like to return to corsetry in the future, but I'm just going to enjoy living pain-free for a moment.
