Day 19

Day 19

I've been taped as of 8:42 a.m. I would have been fully taped earlier, as I was up well before 8 a.m. but, as promised two days ago, I shot the pictorial of the 16 steps. So here it is:

16.





And that's it. This is every step I take every morning (that I tape) and it has been like this since about day three because that's when I made my new, much more comfortable, strap. I am comfortable. There is no pulling or pain whatsoever. I will wear this for 14-16 hours or so and then remove it until tomorrow morning. The reason for removing it for me is because during the night while asleep, there is lots of tossing and turning going on. This can compromise the integrety of the tape, causing it to release in some parts. This can lead to uneven stretching, bruising, micro rips in the skin, pain and in some cases infection from pressure, blood clotting, and open cuts being infected with dirt. No thank you. So, safety first.

{side note: last night I did not tape and I made love to my beautiful partner and for the first time during this whole stretching ordeal, we both felt the newly stretched skin move. It was amazing! If this is just a preview as to why I can expect, I'm even more motivated. Awsome!}

So until tonight...

Blessed Be.
