Yeah, definitely the static nature of the job tends to one putting on weight easily. I remember my first job working in a warehouse loading/unloading trucks, and after 6 months I was ripped. Then once I stopped working there and shifted to a desk job, I ended up gaining like 20lbs in under 4 months. Though much of the gain had little to do with my diet, it was just the lack of moving for the most part.

Hey guys,
I may be getting a full time year round office/desk job soon. I've often heard of people getting fat after starting a desk job but I'm curious to hear some of your stories. What experiences did you have yourself and or did you know any new/old coworkers who plumped up?


Oh! It's SO easy to get fat in a call center! In a few year's time I ballooned from about 275 to nearly 400 lbs. Not only do you sit on your ass all day but a lot of times management will provide food for celebrations & rewards.

Definitely true. I went to a desk job a year ago, and have managed to gain 50 lbs so far. (260-310). No one has said anything to me, but people flat out stare when I come back from lunch- probably because my button-down shirts are gaping around my distended gut.
My wife has had a similar experience. In the last 6 months, she has changed from floor nursing (standing for 12 hours) to a desk job. People constantly bring candy and snacks, and reps buy her lunch. She had lost a little weight down to 200 when she took this job, but now she's nearly 240, and I don't see it slowing down. Someone literally asked her yesterday whenshe was due- her belly has gotten so big! The most amazing thing to me is how her ass has grown wider. It was the smallest part or her, but it is catching up fast.

My first real deskjob had an unlimited lunch buffet for less than a buck a day. Needles to say I gained quite a bit there. Somewhere around 30 pounds that year without even trying. I love my new job, but the access to food is a bit more difficult though.

Congratulations on your new job. All of my desk jobs have added to my waistline. Gained 40 lbs. at one. 25 lbs. at another and 20 lbs. at my last one. I too have a lot of fast food places near my office and rotate through my 5 favorites every week for lunch. The women in my office also bring in tons of treats every week as well which definitely has contributed to my own fattening. Any many of them have been packing on the pounds as well. I must admit as someone who loves to eat and is turned on by women gaining weight, I love my desk job.

Office jobs are the best for weight gaining. It's a slippery slope that is hard to turn back on. My wife has gained around 50-60 pounds in 2 1/2 years since she took an office job. She has gone from 190 size 12/14 to around 250 size 18 now. She is now wearing 1X and 2X tops. Incredible gain! smiley

Congrats, Browniebelly! I can attest also to the fattening power of desk jobs. That's really when I started gaining. I had always been very active, and no fat stuck to me, but the sedentary lifestyle along with co-workers homemade goodies and weekly birthday cakes, plus luncheons cateredin --all started to round me up quite a bit and turned me on to the gaining life! You have so much fun ahead of you, bb!

The desk job phenomenon is legitimate, for sure. A very good friend of mine that I dated briefly packed on quite a bit of weight once she ended up behind a desk. She was a decent athlete when we were younger, even played softball and basketball in college, though not at a competitive level. She put on a little bit of beer weight, but worked a fair amount of that off.

She was/is a very pretty girl, at her fittest she was 5’5” and about 125-130 pounds. She had porcelain skin, a full yet proportional bubble butt, and curly red hair. Her facial bone structure was elegant with a model like angularity. Beautiful, girl next door type.

Fast forward a few years later and the professional life began to take quite a toll on her formerly lithe waistline. A sedentary lifestyle, combined with a love of wine and all things fried changed things dramatically. For starters, she blew up three pants sizes. which couldn’t have been easy to deal with. The brunt of the weight she gained went straight around her middle, which has given her a very noticeable beer belly/paunch.

It didn’t just stop there either, as obviously the rest of her filled out quite a bit. Her rear end, already quite plump, grew to be big enough where she split her snow pants on the ski slopes one day. Not too mention, her face filled out dramatically to the point where she is even sporting a nascent double chin.

Last time we spoke, she confided in how much weight she had gained. Recent doctor’s visit put her at 162 pounds. The extra 30-35 pounds or so served to really slow her down, as she told me she gets winded walking the three flights of stairs up to her office. Quite a change for someone used to going up and down a basketball court.

This one time when I was a bit younger like maybe 16, me and parents went out to buy me a new mattress because I had out grown my twin sized mattress (unfortunately I out grew it hight wise not girth wise). When we walked in every employee there was over weight. And not just a little over weight but a LOT over weight especially the head boss dude. I guess it's because there job description it laying on mattresses. Also when my dad was paying for it I over heard the other employees having a very detailed conversation about there favorite fast food places to go to lunch at. It sounded like they had fast food lunches most of the time. I would LOVE to be like an intern there or something as a college job. And also everyone there was really nice Which adds to me wanting to work there. Atleast for a little while smiley
