All the different nuts and nut butters, though some of them can get pricey. But I like the variety.
You can make homemade nutella with whatever sugar substitute you're comfortable with--the recipes are all over the internet, and while not exactly the same thing, they're pretty good.
Some kinds of fruit are lower in sugar, like apples. Check a chart--they're a lovely alternative to a cracker as a carrier for cheese.
I do a lot of low sugar baking just by lowering the sugar content and then replacing half of it with a sugar substitute. Almost always works great.
There are some good sugar free chocolates around, although as someone else said, a lot of sugar free candies can give you real intestinal upset if you eat too many.
You can also make yourself shakes with cocoa powder,. hemp hearts or flax, some frozen fruit, and a sugar sub. Lots of recipes around.
Hope that helps!

Hi, I’m a lot older than most posters here, so at a different place in my journey. But I started figuring this out...slooooowly...in my late 20s and early 30s. Here are some suggestions:
1. Eat nutritiously, and congratulate yourself on the positive changes you’re making.
2. Stand naked in front of a mirror, and really spend time looking at the things you like, even if that’s just nails and chin.
3. Do a gratitude practice of some kind nightly.
4. Make lists of things you like about yourself. List everything, from kindness to animals, to being a good speller. EVERYTHING. Then make a few copies and post it around your house,
5. Give yourself a full on spa treatment: bath, exfoliation, lotion, and then spend time with the lotion, feeling how nice your soft round parts are.
6. Read some of the stories. Figure out which ones (if any) work for you, and imagine yourself as the heroine.
7. When you’re feeling a little more solid, post some pics here . It’s VERY nice to get lots of positive feedback, even if you have to bat back a few creeps.
Good luck in your recovery process, and well done for reaching out! ✨💐✨

Just noticed this post. I wrote a couple stories with that theme...twice a Knight and king and the stable girl, maybe one other.
These stories are FAB! If you’ve never read
Built’s work, you’re in for a real treat. Highly recommended... actually every one of his stories!

I've always had this fantasy about going to a new doctor who turns out to be stunningly handsome. He's commenting about my weight and seems to disapprove of how fat I've become. But then decides to give me a stress test and begins to feed me eclairs...one after another. I'm getting so full and he keeps increasing the speed of the treadmill and feeds me faster.
By the end, I'm round and swollen with food. He's prodding my fat and measuring how big I'd become. He rubs my belly, pulls me onto a scale to weighs me and schedules a follow-up appointment.
Hey, Lizzy... mind if I borrow this one? It would never have crossed my mind, but it was quite, um, effective to read. Though your writing has always impressed me! 😄

Would be cool to see how many of these people here can do and if anyone�s done all 10!
1. Break a couch
2. Break a bed
3. Not fit into a car
4. Not fit into a bus seat
5. Break the scale
6. Have a triple belly
7. Be able to clap with your thighs
8. Hide objects in your belly rolls
9. Eat a whole cake
10. Squash someone
These all sound super hard but I bet some people have done at least one!
2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9

I eat “overnight oats” all the time, which is just raw oats with milk, left mixed together overnight. So for sure you should be able to use it in the way you’re imagining. The only downside could be that it probably takes a while—the oats don’t absorb the liquid that quickly. But maybe if you eat them in the morning, and then drink all day, you’ll feel all the stretches and tightening over time!

I have two pieces of advice:
1) do anything Built says, because he’s among a very tiny group of weight gain writers who is consistently excellent year after year; and
2) read lots, and then analyse the ones you like so you can figure out why you like them.
Oh, yeah. And then just keep writing, 😁

Primarily 3, with occasional bouts of 2, but I’d hope he would get me treats if I ask!

There's loads and loads of artists across the centuries who have liked various forms from slightly chubby to genuinely thick. The appreciation for what we might think of as ssbbws is, I think, a 20th C phenomenon.
Get creative with your search terms and phrases, and look in image searches. Botero is great, and Rubens, of course, but there's Niki de St. Phalle, some of Tamara de Lempicka and Lucien Freud's women, the Norwegian artist with the famous scupture garden in Oslo..., Anyway, lots. There's a Fat Art page on Pinterest, and there used to be a few websites, too--I'm sure there still are, but they're just a littler harder to find now.
Don't give up hope--keep searching!

It must be just me, since no one else seems to have reported it, but I can't get the chat part of the page to load. It happened both last night and tonight, I think, or at least the last two times I tried. The regular part of the page loads, but not the chat window.
I'm using an iPad, and the OS needs updating, so I guess it could be that if I'm the only one with the problem.
Otherwise, I'm really enjoying it, so thanks!!! :-)
