I want to ask people who were thin before and decided to gain weight. After you gained weight, do you regret doing it? If you don't, then share your experience of gaining weight. How did you do it?

I used to be dangerously underweight to the point I was almost institutionalized over it. I managed to gain to the higher end of the healthy BMI range and have never regretted it at all, although there are a few garments I miss fitting into! It’s also difficult for me to eat enough to maintain my weight sometimes.

The initial thing that allowed me to gain weight after years of trying and failing was a combo of the depo provera shot and appetite stimulants, then after I had gained about 20 pounds from that and had to quit the shot due to side effects, I gained another 30 or so pounds by forcing myself to eat more and drinking heavy cream. Sadly I did lose about 15 recently from not eating enough, but I’m working on gaining it back, hopefully with a little extra.

Thanks for sharing your story! It sounds like your journey wasn't easy, but it's great that you were able to reach a comfortable weight and don't regret it. How did you feel when you were gaining? Was there a moment when you realized you were actually feeling better?

It sounds like for you it wasn't just a change in diet, but a real shift to freedom in the way you relate to food and yourself. What was it like to stop feeling shy and just enjoy what you want?

You are exactly right. It was freeing, like a kid in a candy shop lol. I just let my appetite dictate my diet unconcerned with calories or what it was, if it tasted good I wanted it and I got more

As someone who’s trying to start their thin to fat journey, it’s all about taking control over myself. Of course I love fat bodies as well but a big factor in it is deciding what my body is like outside of any outside pressures. Plus big butts are in vogue so why not lmao.

I was about 120 lbs when I started college, but got busy sophomore year, worked out less and was less restrictive about what I ate. By the end of the year I was about 30 lbs heavier. I decided to try gaining about 10 lbs on purpose Junior year. I had an all you can eat meal plan and kinda let myself indulge. My story is posted on here if you wanna know more, or say hi

Im still thin, but off and on work towards wanting a pot belly. Sometimes it gets really big and I love it but then I get caught up in work and things and forget to maintain the calorie count high enough to keep it since I have a high metabolism.

I think its a lifestyle I cant really afford to settle in right now even though I am finding out ways where I can better accommodate it so I can really get fat.

But until then lol

I regretted it at first. For me feedism was always more about being fed then gaining. Gaining was just a side effect, not something I set out to do. I would often work to counter all my feedings. When I one of the feeders I was with set a goal to me I was very hesitant. I never thought I could get where she wanted me. As we worked on it, I started to enjoy my body and the gaining became fun too. It added a new level to being fed. Then when we ended our partnership, I couldn't stop. I didn't fight any gaining. And while I didn't put on as much as I did with a feeder, I was still gaining a little. And I found I didn't mind. I liked it.

Now that weight I never thought I would reach is a distant memory. I love gaining when I'm with someone. When I'm by myself, I tend to lose weight just because I don't push myself as much, but I don't actively try to lose. I dont regret anymore. I am happy where I am and happy to get bigger.

At first I was too happy to put on weight (I weighed 60kg at the start). I told myself that if worst came to worst I could lose it all again.
Since then my mindset has changed, I still want to gain weight (I've put on 80kg so far) but I'm well aware that there's no going back. If I lose the weight again, I'll have to go through surgery to remove all the loose skin.
So I prefer to keep the skin taut by stretching it out a little more.

I’m not sure this applies to me but my lowest weight was around 230-250 pounds,since then I’ve gained a lot of weight. (now 3 times time the size I was then.) I don’t regret it. I’ve enjoyed gaining weight I don’t think there has been much of a change besides my increase in laziness.

I was a size 2/4 weighing 125ish for most of my life, until I stopped caring about other people’s standards and stared allowing myself to take pleasure in food. I took in about 80 lbs of pleasure, lol, which pushed me into obese territory.
I never want to be thin again.

There is so much because misery and self-loathing associated with diet and exercise. I hate all of it and becoming fat has been liberating in that regard.

I want to stay fat and happy forever, and I think if I continue to embrace the beauty that comes with my rounder form, it will keep happening naturally. 😉 Sure, putting on shoes or bending over or climbing stairs will suck, but imagine how glorious my belly will be!

There’s a reason for the old adage “fat and happy.” I think you’ve found out about all the pluses to being plus-sized :-)
