Im at 1/2" right now. I dont think Ill go any bigger, I like the common selection in jewelry, and i think it fits my lobes just perfect.
I LOVED the whole process. It probably took me 9 months to get to 1/2".
I used a taper on most upsizings. Tapers make you stretch fast but its sometmes painful and you have to be careful not to rip your skin, that sucks!
I found that wearing heavy jewelry such as stone or metals weighted the lobe a little more than acrylics and made the process go faster.



And I LOVE my squishy tunnels, gotta cut back on that ear cheese you know!
