Fat experiences

Getting fat as a former fitness buff

I weigh more than twice what I weighed when I graduated high school. 140 pounds then - 327 pounds now. I wouldn't mind doubling my weight again.

I haven’t doubled my weight or have any claim like some folks here but it’s getting close. In 1993 I weighed 137 lbs, at 5’ 6” when I started working out. I got into power lifting and added a it of muscle and fat. I eventually got up to 230. I lost and gained the same 20 lbs a couple of times. I’m back up to 227, going for 230 again, then maybe 235-240.

Describes me too. I used to be super fit and obsessed with health and fitness. I was 170 lbs or less at my thinnest but let go, stopped exercising, and got to 253 lbs and completely out of shape. Definitely a few reactions... mostly stares and indirect comments... one or two people poked my gut... doctors of course were concerned... but overall not as much reaction or commentary as I would have guessed from people.

Me too. I was 175 lbs. in high school and stayed there until my mid-30's. Began slowly packing on the lbs. and over a 12 year period put on 130 lbs. reaching 305 lbs. Have settled in around 285 lbs. and discovered I love gaining weight and being fat.
