Is 8 inches an unrealistic goal for me?

Hey all! I don’t know exactly how long I was when I began PE, but I’m pretty sure it was 5-5 1/2. I am getting very close to 6.5 NBPEL. My eventual goal is 8 inches. Some of the things I’ve read here lead me to believe that 8 inches is somewhat uncommon. So I guess I am asking the vets, should I expect to reach 8 inches? Thanks in advance for the input.

The question is: how long do you expect it to take?

Dedicate the time to PE and you’ll get there. It might take a couple of years, it might take a decade but if you’re disciplined with PE you will get there.

Very few people gain more than 2 inches in length but if you’re willing to put in the time and many years then yes I would say it’s possible.

I’m definitely willing to put in the time. I think I have been gaining a little under a half-inch every month I hope to get there within a year-and-a-half.

You have gained 1.5” in 3 months? Are you sure?

The only way to know how far you can get is to keep PEing. Your gains may dry up after another quarter inch, or you may be one of the lucky ones who can gain 2+” with enough dedication.

I meant since I started PEing consistently. In the past it has been pretty sporadic due to extenuating circumstances.

That is a world record IMO :p .

bigger-8inchM!

Buy a new ruler.

.5 inches a month is pretty insane. If you gained .5 inches a month for the next 18 months, you’d gain 9 inches.

You should probably keep better track of the amount you gain a month.

Well to find out if it’s a realistic goal we are going to need your routine, diet, sleep habits, exercise routine, supplements, and etc. now.
Just kidding but seriously post your routine because that’s quite some gains you got going :)

No further need for scarves in winter…

I am guessing you may have measured using different methods. Make sure you are consistently measuring the same way. Almost half an inch a month is a crazy amount. I could see .5 inches for the first month (newbie gains), but after that gains tend to slow down a great deal.

Not saying it can’t happen, just extremely unlikely.

I noticed that your join date is around the same time when Thunder’s Place came into existence. If you don’t mind sharing, can you tell us if you have continued to gain over the past 7 years or did gains pretty much stop at a certain point? You may not be actively PEing, but I just thought I’d ask.
