I’ve seen definite improvement in my capacity! When I started really trying to get big around 9 months ago, I could eat a decent meal and be full in no time.
I started doing a daily soda bloat, and would gradually increase the amount of soda each time. In the start I could do like 2 liters an I was in pain, now however I can chug a good 8 liters before it starts to hurt🤩
So with the soda bloats I think I stretched my stomach quite a bit cause I ended up being hungry all the time and didn’t ever really feel full when eating. Which might explain an almost 80 pound weight gain in a little over 4 months 😅
Munchies:
Careful. 80 lbs in 4 months is not sustainable. Setting yourself up for a wold of hurt.
DoughyDane:
yeah it wasn't sutainable... i ended dropping down around 30 pounds shortly after, but the rest of the weight has stuck around 😅
I hear from many people the weight from rapid gains doesn't stick. The flip side of that is when you stretch your stomach permanently and weight gain becomes very difficult to control. That happened to me.
I've always been fat, and I've never had trouble putting away a big meal. At one point, on medical advise, I got down to 190 ,which, while still obese, is my lowest adult weight. Not liking it one bit, I started gaining on purpose, and that ultimately led to an obsession with rapid gains and very extreme stuffings. I funneled, I took appetamin, I chugged, and my stuffings became bigger and bigger. I was blowing up at an unbelievable rate, including one gaining spurr of 80 pounds in two months and a gain of 55 pounds between Christmas and New Years. I was eating 25,000 or more calories everyday, and eventually that no longer filled me up. It I had a 10,000 calorie day, I felt like I hadn't eaten at all. I reached what I thought was my absolute weight cap of 500 in December 2023. The thing is, my stomach didn't get that message. As it turns out, I did permanent damage that would require surgery to reverse, and I'm currently too big, at 650, for that surgery. So I struggle... Every day... to keep my calories at maintenance and drink tons of water, but I still feel like I'm starving. And then I have weak moments. A couple of weeks ago, I had a few triggering experiences, and I went to food for comfort. I gained 12 pounds, and despite shoveling down tens of thousands of calories (and feeling nauseated by grease once), I never once felt truly full. I said all this to say, it's possible to stretch your stomach irreversibly and destroy your fullness signals, which creates a risk of other complications.
