I'm currently at 5/8 inch and my lobes have been looking a little thin lately. I massage them every day with vitamin E oil and leave the jewelry out for at least 2 hours every day. I think the lobes are getting a little thicker since I started doing that, but I don't know if they're thick enough. I'd like to start wearing my new stone jewelry, but I'm afraid that the weight of it will thin my lobes out even more. Do I need to downsize (which is a last resort for me, as I only got to this size about 3 weeks ago and really would like to stay here for a while) or are my lobes okay?
Here are a couple pictures, with and without jewelry in:

I'd like to mention that there are no thin spots, so I know I'm not in danger of tearing. But I'd eventually like to go to 3/4 inch (my goal size), though for now I'd like to stay at 5/8 for a while. I just want to be sure my lobes won't thin out even more, and that I can wear stone or other heavy plugs without worrying about further thinning. Thanks.
