First impression

[MeTony]

I recieved my binder yesterday. I've tried it on. Might need one size smaller. But I'm not sure it would fit over my shoulders. I need to lose weight. Now THAT'S a motivator!
I love it already. My chest just magically shrunk to almost nothing. I'm fat. So chest disappearing completely might look stupid.  I felt my confidence rocket sky high when my chest disappeared.

I'm on my way to meet the HR-director of my company today. I will wear my binder and come in my normal guy's cloths. I've never seen him. First impressions. Right? I don't feel comfortable in womans cloths at all.

Soooo...it's down town today. All day. As myself.

What brand binder is it? I've not had any luck so far. All were too small so I couldn't even get them on. I tried Large and XL. The XL was a bit better in that I was able to get it just past my hip bones ( since binders are supposed to be put on from the bottom up), but I could not get it past my pelvis. Maybe I need to try again, or smother them with vaseline to make them slide better!

So, I've got two binders and none work   I'm fairly large breasted being a 36B, and top surgery won't be on the cards till sometime next year most likely ( while my voice will likely have dropped by several registers.) I really need to find binders I can use and are effective.


Good luck with the interview!

It's one from 2g something. 3xl.   It's made to be put on like a shirt. From the top.

WHOOPIEEE! I tried it from the top and it fits! Sometimes I'm such bone head. Thanks for the suggestion to put it on from the top

Nice and flat. So flat. And amazingly comfortable.

Yeah, while some companies (and people on these forums) do suggest stepping into your binders, and it is indeed the best option for some people, that just isn't physically possible for a lot of folks whose hips are wider than our shoulders. I've owned quite a few different brands, including ones supposedly designed to step into, and I've never owned one that I couldn't slip on over my head with minimal effort once I got used to the process.

The key is not letting them roll up as you pull them down.

[MeTony]

gc2b?

Yes! That's it!

[Elis]

It's always easier to lift and pull the back up to get it off; rather than taking off like a tshirt.

Btw; happy for you Tonie; hope the rest of your day goes smoothly

Thank you. The meeting went well. No strange looks or anything. We were 4 guys in the meeting room. Nobody said anything nor asked anything. They just accepted me as I am. We will have a new meeting in a couple of months. I think this will go smoothe.
