Hanging: Ride the Fatigue (Blink's Progress)

I’ve gone back to vac ADS.. I’ve stopped jelquing due to time/ convenience, but may go back.. I’m consisently get 7.75" in my bathmate & think with a little effort I should be able to get that outside the tube too (seems logical to me) & perhaps jelqs can help.

I’m still around 7.3" BPEL.. no revelations lately except a shocking amount of girth at my base that I didn’t realize I had gained.. Quick Extender is no good for me / it’s going to be a big project to build a base that actually fits me (my flaccid girth is probably over 6" BEG given how extremely tight the base of the 5.5" extender fits onto it.. and this is even with me cutting a U-shape into the bottom so I can get myself into the device). Given it makes the penis head numb, it’s a no-go for now.

I’m up to 2 hours vac ADS.. for now I gave in & bought a lot of new parts for my stealthformen vac hanger attachment (but I haven’t been hanging).

I’ve now lost 22lbs in 7 weeks, been average 3lbs per week with Ketosis, intermittent fasting, cardio & lifting.. I was up to 265lbs a couple years ago; it’s been a long journey of ups & downs.

I’m thrilled to be at 185lbs now — I can see the veins again standing out from hands up through forearms, biceps & shoulders (extremely good vascularity now). 2 days ago I was walking out of a restaurant with friends and an extremely attractive blond woman was just staring at me as I walked out — that didn’t happen to me when I was fat.

I estimate bodyfat is 11% @ 185lbs, and am targting bodyfat 8% @ 179lbs which I expect to reach by middle of next month. I’ll go get a Dexa scan to verify.

Then, I can finally add weight loss as "done" on my todo list.

Today I measured BPFSL for the first time in 4 months and I went from 7.2" to 7.75"..

Maybe it’s time to do jelqs again because although I get the full 7.75" inch in the bathmate, I can’t do it outside the bathmate.

I’m open to advice on converting BPFSL gains to BPEL gains..

Hey, congrats on your weight-loss and BPFSL gains… both very impressive.

I’m open to advice on converting those gains too! At the moment, I measure about 0.5" extra in BPFSL (compared to BPEL). Maybe it’s just one of those things(?)

Thank you SD85, the weight loss has been amazing for me, I feel the best I’ve felt in about 20 years.

Regarding converting BPEL to BPFSL, my entire PE career until now, my BPEL was always beyond my BPFSL.. and I agree, it’s "one of those things" because long time PE’ers usually eventually get BPFSL well beyond BPEL, I think I’ve seen some people with over 1" of BPFSL or more beyond BPEL.

Some people believe Jelqs can help convert gains, and my BPFSL getting so far ahead of my BPEL strongly correlates with me stopping jelqs. I’ll start jelqing again & see if it makes a difference.

Congrats Blink! I am in that camp. My BPFSL usually trends around 1” past BPEL for me. It’s been that way pretty much the whole time with BPFSL gains occurring first then BPEL shortly afterwards. I really don’t know the mechanics of why it’s like that for some and your situation for others. Would be interesting to eventually get a better understanding of that as PE gets more widespread.

Really interesting Bumstubs… This feels like one of the mysterious poorly understood parts of PE… The consistent thread I also see (that you mentioned) is BPEL gains eventually follow BPFSL gains

I’m down to 182lbs and my waist is 30” now, and the 6 pack is showing though (my chest is 44.5” so it’s a good contrast). I estimate 8.5% body fat.

Nothing fit me so I had to get new clothes… I got some skinny jeans and my wife said “holy shit, your package is looking so huge in those tight jeans, I don’t think I can let you go out wearing those!” (she was joking). More seriously getting to around 6 “ x 5” flaccid (and over 6” base girth flaccid) was only possible with PE.. my flaccid is actually bigger than my fully erect penis was pre-pe.

Just 10 months of pumping is what triggered the major package changes. Of course all forms of PE contributed…

If you are trying to increase flaccid size, don’t skip pumping! I only do 10 minute pumping sessions per day and I take rest days. ’The time commitment isn’t that much, and the gains are incredible.

Can I ask what your exact pumping routine is? I never know quite what to do, lol. I usually pump to the max and hold it for 5 minutes, then let go (so just the suction is holding it) for another 5-10 minutes. Does that sound OK?

Yes SD85, I think that works.. My current routine is 5 minutes building up to max pressure slowly (I don’t fully max out my bathmate any more, i just mean max pressure for the session) then I hold it 5 minutes, then I end the session.

Generally, I try to get to a measure past my BPEL and hold it 5 minutes; it’s my hope that this is helping me grow. My BPEL is 7.3" last time I checked, but while pumping in the tube I’m usually getting to 7.75" and holding that 5 minutes.

The flaccid gains after pumping are incredible; I’ve been pumping 10 or 11 months, and my flaccid is quite a bit bigger… One thing I wonder myself is how much of the "temporarily" pumping gains can translate to permanent gains and how long that will take (months? years?).
