Says the one who doesn't eat at all 😭
I'm tempted to try this. Especially because 68kg is literally my weight. I could gain a couple of kilos...

oh right! i was considering the ribs one for a while as well. my lower few ribs all sort of stick outwards in a way which makes it look like i have a beer belly (despite being really skinny), and frankly they protrude further out than i'm expecting my boobs to grow from HRT. never really noticed or cared before starting to transition, then realized that it makes it rather impossible to wear any non-baggy top without showing off the lower half of my rib cage, and definitely considered getting the rib-breaking surgery for a while. since then i realized that this is almost certainly a symptom of my scoliosis, so i would've had this issue no matter which way my body developed, and now i've more or less come to terms with it (although finding shirts with a fem cut that don't look silly is still a bit harder than it would be if my back weren't all crooked! :P).
(also, having to wear a corset 24/7 for months would probably make my back muscles even weaker than they already are, and there's a good chance it'd make the scoliosis worse...)
