Fat experiences

What's your fat lifestyle?

I think it would be fun to hear what everyone's "fat lifestyle" is like. The basic idea is you give us an idea of an average day in your lifestyle.

For the sake of inclusivity feel free to respond even if you're not fat and just want to share, but the goal of this post is definitely to gain insight into the fat life (can also be useful for anyone that wants to emulate a lifestyle that's fatter than theirs)



So here's the format

Are you intentionally gaining weight:

Do you gain weight every year:

What's your fat lifestyle?

FreshmanFifty:
Are you intentionally gaining weight: No

Do you gain weight every year: Yes, even if I don’t try

Weight: ~230-240, I haven’t weighed myself in a couple months

Size: Not sure. I’m somewhere between overweight and obese. If it helps I’m 5’5 with a waist of almost 55 inches

Avg calories per day: 2300?

Avg # of meals per day: 2-3. I sometimes skip breakfast or dinner.

Typical meals eaten on average day: Mashed up bananas and peanut butter for breakfast. My lunch always varies but is usually meat and carbs of some kind. Sometimes for dinner I’ll go out but usually just eat the same thing as I did for lunch. My college has fast food and groceries on campus so I usually get something from there, either a sandwich or snacks.

Exercise amount:
Other than walking around, basically none. Max 2 miles a day.

Laziness level:
Very lazy. If I didn’t have to go outside I wouldn’t.

Relationship with food:
It’s weird. I go between gaining, maintaining, and trying to lose weight constantly. I had problems with eating way too much then starving myself to try to offset it for years. I’m just now starting to find a balance of too much vs too little.


We have roughly the same caloric intake yet vastly different weights.

Super cool how different metabolism and body types work!

Few Stops at McDonald’s or any other fast food during the day to get a few burgers/fries/ strawberry milkshakes, nuggets, whatever else I’m interested in. Sometimes if I am hungry or have room for food, I will grab some snacks that I have. I’ll throw in some healthy food in sometimes. Dinner is whatever Im in the mood. Pasta, chicken, could even be a stop to another fast food place or even Applebee’s. It varies for me. Mostly eating a lot.

Relationship with food: It’s a Strong relationship. Doesn’t matter if it’s healthy or fattening, I won’t judge. I will enjoy it when I can fit it inside my stomach.

What's your fat lifestyle?

FatLover91:
Are you intentionally gaining weight:
yes!

Do you gain weight every year: yes

Weight: 397lbs

Size: 4XL for shirts

Avg calories per day: 8,500

Avg # of meals per day: 4 or 5 depending on how much I’m awake.

Typical meals eaten on average day:
Mostly fast food because I never feel like cooking: 2 Big Macs, 1 large fry, large coke, 2 apple pies and an Oreo McFlurry. Essentially the same thing when I go to Burger King Wendy’s or Chick-fil-A. 2 sandwiches, 1 large fry, a large soda and a couple pies or cookies and one milkshake to go with it. I eat fast food every meal. Sometimes I go to a restaurant to eat too. I also have a lot of cookies, cakes and chips in the house that I snack on all day on weekends and after work.

Exercise amount: none

Laziness level: I have a desk job then I grab McDonald’s on the way home and lay in bed. So I am very lazy.

Relationship with food: I use it to feel better. Which I guess is a good relationship to have with food when you’re trying to get up to 650lbs.


So does that mean you get 4-5 fast food meals of that description each day?
