Plump Belly To Curvy:
Wow, are you sure about that surgery? I'd get a second opinion. I'm not a medical professional, but that sounds awfully drastic. And as gaining enough to be truly fat ours a lot of bulk through the system, it may be much harder with your large intestine removed.
As for suggestions:
A practical one is hunger inducing supplements. I have a hard time eating as much as I need to to gain a lot consistently, and I don't tend to get hungry in the morning. I've found the combo of Gain (by Nutri) and Eat Mor when I'm not hungry or before what I want to be a larger meal to be super helpful. In about 20 min, Gain makes me hungry. Ear Mor may in 30-60 minutes, but whether I'm hungry or not, Eat Mor magically allows me to just keep eating, so much more than I would otherwise, comfortably. Then I follow up especially big or hard to digest meals with digestive enzymes.
As for kink association, I also find that either self-pleasure with or after the food or reading erotic gain or related fetish stories while eating so much gives me even more association with the sensuality of stuffing, gaining, and fat, and the sexual pleasure of imagining breeding. If you have a partner who would feed and breed you or come together even if their not into feedism, after a while I get aroused just thinking of a big meal and all that fat that it will make, how I'll get bigger. It's not an addiction or dependence because I can still forget to eat or dekay it for other reasons in my life. But if I've eaten large meals consistently enough, my body adjusts with more hunger and digestive capacity. So my body starts to crave it and notice more noisily if I don't eat it. We know the squeaky wheel gets the grease.
I appreciate the concern, but I am very well informed about my medical condition. I've been genetically tested, had several upper and lower endoscopies, and a few family members have had the surgery. Fun fact though: your large intestine is almost solely responsible for water absorption! After i've healed and my body adjusts itself after a few months, the only real difference from now is i'll have to drink more water. Definitely not what I intended this post to be about, but thats on me for bringing it up.
And thank you for the suggestion for those supplements! I'll definitely look into them, that sounds great! I was concerned they were just placebo and a waste of money.
Im good on the kink association, i've accidentally done that to myself already (can be turned just from ordering a meal/looking at calorie totals). And have definitely gotten off to nothing but eating/being too full before! Unfortunately though, that's all i've got going for me on the motivational front. But Eat Mor and Gain would be huge for me if they make me actually want to eat!
