Gaining

What makes you want to gain weight? And what’s your favorite thing about fat?

because I’m a glutton and can’t control it anymore

Exactly this. I love the feeling of being constantly satiated, the thrill of noticing my clothes becoming tighter, and realising I'm starting to jiggle in new places... 🥰🥰🥰🥰

It means I can actually enjoy food and eat more of it, rather than just the minimum to barely survive. And eating the bare minimum means a lack of energy. Of course, the downside is that I get hungrier when it's not convenient, but you get used to it and plan around it. You even look forward to it.

In America, there's NO social advantage to being skinny in any circle, if you're male.

You're more attractive to more women too. You have the softness they love to hug, even thin women too.

Some ladies joke about wanting a Chippendale or a 6-pack but let's get real, almost no one is like that. Someone who works full-time or more, can't go to the gym daily and be bored out of his mind. I almost wonder if that's where the "dumb jock" stereotype came from; it's damned BORING to spend too much time at the gym.

Same reason I don't want a gym bunny. Give me a teacher, a scientist, professional, etc. who just loves yummy food and well, might chow down on cake or other sweets while hard at work.

Subjective maybe but it seems like almost every man who's even close to successful, is at least "overweight" if not "obese" according to the CDC. Try to find anyone who has an income of at least 6 figures who isn't "overweight."

I feel more confident with weight gain, too. I love that I take up more space.

Sitting down is more comfortable too. Maybe the extra fat on my ass helps with that?

I can't pinpoint any specific moment, but my desire to be fat has always been there. I was a skinny kid, but wanted to be fat. No matter how much I tried, I couldn't do it. Took me all the way til my sophomore year in college before I put on any weight.

But I've also been attracted to fat too. Before I met my wife, I had 3 girlfriends. One was chubby, one was skinny, but gained a bit unintentionally and the other was fat. My wife was fat when I met her, lost some before we got married and has done nothing but gain since. If I had to guess she's 310-320. Possibly more.

So fatness has been a part of me forever. My current goal is to gain past my high weight of 258. I'm thinking 275.

I'm flattered, but I'm happily married.

Couldn’t agree more. That’s how I feel too. My huge gut is like a very visible memory of all the yummy food I have stuffed myself with.

I love how my fat body looks and feels. Especially my big belly. I love the feel of my fat and the more there is, the more I love caressing it

I love the texture and feeling of fat, which is mainly why I still want to gain and get really fat even now that I’ve got up to a healthy weight. It’s great watching the number on the scale go up, too.

From a practical standpoint, being heavier gives me more of a buffer so that a relapse (either of my SED or of my stomach problems) causing me to lose a lot of weight won’t be such a big deal, and will be a nuisance rather than a medical emergency.

I love the round shape that I get from getting fatter. I think it looks great and gluttonous and it turns me on. Also on others.
And for myself I like the waddles, the jiggles and the bouncing. It makes me feel horny.
