Beginning Corset Training!

I am excited to start getting into corseting again! Right now my natural waist is 28", and I hope to eventually get to 20-21" with a corset. When my natural waist was 27" I achieved 20", so I don't feel like this is unrealistic. 

I ordered new corsets from Corset Story on Saturday, and they came in the mail today (Wednesday). I'm wearing one now, though I just ate a full meal. With my natural waist at 29" right now, I am sittin' pretty at 27"...not a big reduction at all, but I am going to wear it an hour or two before bed, and will tighten it again in 30 minutes, once the fabric loosens and my body gets used to it a bit. I am also new to tight-lacing myself, so I'm sure my lacing skills will improve, as well.

Update: after tightening it, I'm now at 26.5".
