Gaining

Direneeds8:
Should I expect to expand more over the next couple weeks if I stop? Any ideas what’s causing this tight skin feeling? and also, am I likely to develop stretchmarks?

Your skin probably feels tight because you've gained some weight rapidly from drinking heavy cream. Whether you will keep gaining after you stop is hard to say because everyone is a bit different - some people seem to notice they keep gaining for a week or two after they stop cream, and others stop noticing gains within a day or two of stopping cream.


Whether you will get stretch marks is also hard to tell as it depends how much weight you've gained, how quickly you gained it, and what your skin elasticity is like. How long have you been drinking heavy cream and how much have you gained over that period already?

Why it s possible continue to gain after stopping heavy cream?

Direneeds8:
It’s been only 5 days but drinking over a pint a day and eating as much as I can (nipples a bit sensitive). It’s my first ever gain and I’ve always been thin. Debating whether I should keep on the cream until I see the gain then stop, or whether that will cause me to way overshoot. I’m not ready to be noticeably fat yet.

Direneeds8:
Thanks! And when you say weight that stays, does that mean my set point moves up and I’m permanently going to be stuck like 5 pounds heavier?

Direneeds8:
Could it perhaps be because the first stage is adding fat cells and then they fill up like rebound weight would, in the coming days/weeks?

Or maybe there’s something to do with the fat being accumulated in the liver and perhaps it’s released once the subcutaneous fat cells have been added?

Curveman:
My theory is the fat goes into the lymph system and this delays its passage to the subcutaneous fat cells. However I have no medical qualification - I'm an engineer!
