MitchHedberg:
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:
Weight:
Size:
Avg calories per day:
Avg # of meals per day:
Typical meals eaten on average day:
Exercise amount:
Laziness level:
Relationship with food:
So for me a response would like like this
...........................................................
Are you intentionally gaining weight: Not currently
Do you gain weight every year: My weight has plateaued naturally
Weight: 200lbs
Size: Chubby
Avg Calories per day: 2200
Avg # of meals per day: 3
Typical meals:
- turkey sandwich
- buckwheat, veggies and chicken
- snack assortment/dessert meal late at night
Exercise amount: 1hr walk and sometimes weight lifting
Laziness level: Not very lazy, will travel up and down stairs frequently, don't often look for excuses to be sedentary
Relationship with food:
I mostly eat when I'm hungry but I snack for pleasure. I sometimes eat to improve my mood when I'm down.
What's your lifestyle look like?
I was intentionally gaining until a week ago (I have to lose just enough weight I can fit through my front door), so my answers reflect what I've been doing for most of the year!
Are you intentionally gaining weight: Yes, I intentionally gained up until 2 weeks ago through hardcore stuffings. My goal was to see how big I could make my belly and how far I could push my stomach capacity.
Do you gain weight every year: Yes, I've gained weight every year since 2020.
Weight: 849lb.
Size: I'm too big for most clothing, even those from special retailers. I recently had three dresses made based on my measurements.
Avg calories per day: When gaining, 25K to 30K. Currently, I'm eating 4K to 5K, and I feel like I'm starving.
Avg # of meals per day: When gaining, probably 6-8 actual meals plus all day stuffing.
Typical meals eaten on average day: When gaining, I eat tons of carbs. My go-to breakfast is 2 dozen eggs, scrambled with 2 lb. of cheese, 12 biscuits, 8-12 turkey sausage patties, a big bowl of fruit, and a gallon of chocolate milk.
One of my go-to food orders is 5 large pizzas.
I also often would eat pasta, made in a 10 quart pot. That included 4 boxes of spaghetti noodles, 6 jars of marinara sauce or cream vodka sauce, 3 lb. of mixed parmesan and romano cheese, 2 cups of chopped onions, a cup of minced garlic, 2lb. of mushrooms, 2lb. of frozen meatballs baked in olive oil, and a couple of loaves of garlic bread. I was able to finish it all pretty easily, and it would leave me with a nice bloated belly.
Exercise amount: None. Getting up is very challenging. I only stand 4-5 times a day to use the bathroom and for hygiene.
Laziness level: Extremely. For the past 4 months, I've basically just been sitting around getting fatter.
Relationship with food: Yes, please! I enjoy all kinds of flavors, and I enjoy stuffing until I can barely breath.
