chapter 1

Claire was at her hair dresser after her daily workout getting highlights in her hair. She was a little down, her boyfriend seemed distant lately and she was worried.

Claire was very slim, a real workout nut, she was five foot two and weighed one hundred and five pounds dripping wet. Dave her boyfriend, had a serious dad bod, with a good sized paunch and heavy in the butt as well. She kind of liked his heavy body though and the fact that he made very good money certainly didn’t hurt either.

While waiting for her favorite hair dresser she saw an older issue of “Cosmopolitan” magazine on the coffee table in the waiting area. She noticed one of the ticklers on the cover, “Is your body ruining your relationship?” Claire thumbed through until she got to the article.

The author started describing her situation. She was petite, very slim, worked out several days a week. Her boyfriend, was a little on the heavy side, but not really fat. Their relationship started to cool off and she worried what the problem was. A friend of hers suggested that maybe he was into heavier girls. She couldn’t believe that, but she decided to look for some clues.

First thing she did, was observe if he checked out other girls/women. Guys always do, but what kind of girls have him doing a double take; slim girls, curvy girls, or overweight girls.

Second how did he react when they went out to dinner? Did he mind that she never finished her meal? Did he watch her eat? Did he insist on ordering for her? Did he encourage her to eat more or order dessert?

Third was his mom and siblings overweight? Has he met your mom and is she overweight?

Fourth have you checked out any of his more “private” websites, is he into porn, or some fetish sites?

Claire’s stylist called her; “Claire are you ready?” “Oh sorry Julie, I got caught up reading this article.” Claire got up and followed Julie back to her cubicle. Claire still had the magazine. “Claire, that’ an old issue, you can take it with you if you want.” “Oh thanks, Julie, this article kind of hit a cord with me.”

Julie did Claire’s highlights and did an excellent job as usual. Claire paid her, thanked her for the great job and the magazine.

After a light supper, of celery, skinless chicken breast, and tofu, Clair started reading the article again.

The author observed, her boyfriend did indeed check out overweight women, especially those with large bottoms/booties. She thought about the last couple of times they went out to dinner. She usually just pushed her food around, barely eating anything. Her boyfriend always asked if she wanted dessert or more to eat and she always declined. She remembered he seemed disappointed that she didn’t eat more. She remembered him telling her that his mom and sister were both overweight, but they were very happy and enjoyed life. She borrowed his laptop a couple of times, she worked up the courage to look at his browsing history and sure enough there were a couple of fetish sites involving weight gain.

The author said she had to do some serious soul searching. She was really falling in love with him, but she knew that it would never work out between them if she kept up her diet and exercise routines. She had been super buff, even in college when her roommate gained twenty pounds her first semester. She kept any pounds off, even with a sedentary desk job she had now.

The author made a decision of sorts. The next date, she would eat as much food as she could and get bloated. She wanted to see his reaction to her finally really eating. It worked! She was stunned he was beside himself watching her eat. He was very complimentary of her appetite. She did get bloated a bit she feigned being really, really stuffed, asking him to help her up from the table.

The next date, she wore the smallest pair of yoga pants she had and a really tight bikini panty underneath. She checked the mirror to be sure there were serious panty lines showing through the pants. She also wore a tight, short t-shirt to show a little “tummy”. She stuffed herself at dinner eating a whole entre which never did before, getting bloated. The t-shirt really showed off her tummy bulge. She said after dinner, if she kept eating like this she would get fat!

It worked! Her boyfriend was beside himself with desire. They made love the best ever in their relationship.

Claire finished the article, the author did marry her boyfriend, she said she did gain weight and that they are still married and very happy. Claire thought, “How much weight did she have to gain?” Claire leaned back in her sofa thinking; “Dave didn’t seem very attentive on our last dinner date. I didn’t eat very much at all.”

She thought of the last time they were out in public, in the mall last weekend. She did catch Dave checking out other girls, but she couldn’t remember if any of them were overweight or not. She did remember that Dave told her his mom was pretty fat, his words too. Dave had met her mom, and Claire considered her obese, though she really wasn’t that fat.
