I totally understand about the mental image thing. I don't know why I ended up so small, but I'm glad I did, because anything else would really be in conflict with how I see myself. I've always had the feeling that I ought to be able to pretend to be a boy if I wanted to. Not to pass for one (I'm not masculine enough, although I did used to be mistaken for a boy when I was younger and had a really short gamine haircut), but just in my imagination. So when I was young and had long hair, I always wore it in braids, not loose, and even now I have it short enough so I can always feel a bit androgynous. Having a different body type would feel really really weird to me, and I can't imagine how it would be to have something that you can't control like your breast size be different than what you feel is "you."
Sorry, I'm talking about myself way too much. I just wanted to encourage you! It's great that you live in such a fabulous walking city to help with your make-your-belly-match goals! :-)
