Fat experiences

Going swimming when you've gained weight!

Alex7:
Oh funny I love it. Did the brothers-in-law survive lol


Yes! No injuries reported. Not really able to do many stairs at this size, so the pool steps were a challenge. I definitely wouldn't advise standing behind a 570 lb person though. After all, if we fall, we'll just knock you over like a bowling pin.

Were the pool steps the build in steps at the side of the pool with a handle used in recreational pools in hotels or the aluminium removable set of stairs used in swimming pools for competitions?

Built in concrete steps. There was also an aluminum ladder, but those are way out of the question for me. If by some miracle, I did manage to get on it, I'd be too afraid of pulling the whole thing down.

Definitely a great experience. Swimming or standing & the feeling of your belly moving through the water. It's a great feeling.

My ultimate goal was to waddle onto the beach in a bikini while carrying a bunch of food and sitting down and stuffing myself in front of everyone.

I bought a stars-and-stripes bikini because that's what our Olympic athletes wear in the hopes that people would think of their slim, muscular, toned, fit bodies and then see my pale porky body overflowing my swimsuit for everyone to see. SO HOT.

FAMGM:
At 330 lbs, and with a big ball-belly that acts like a personal floatation device, I pretty rapidly get turned either onto my back or my front, horizontally in the water. On my back, my belly sticks up out of the water, and on my front, my belly pushes my bum out of the water.


Similar experience here. My huge belly makes a great flotation device. When I am not fully in the water, my moobs and other fat rolls tend to float a little bit.
Also, an added bonus is that being in the water always makes me super hungry and I can eat a lot of fast food afterwards!

I can now double as an emergency life raft - so buoyant in the water at 24st! My fat is all over so can float vertically!

Oh man, this reminds me of something that happened recently. I went to the lake with my Dad, his girlfriend, and my sister and her family.

Everyone else took the kids to the park while my sister and I stayed in the water for a bit longer, and my sister and I are both big, so we were floating around with our legs up, letting our fat act as our floaties.

We discovered that my sister treads water weird, because she wouldn't stop spinning in circles. We were both laughing so hard by the time we figured out why she was spinning that the entire beach heard us! Then we laughed even harder because I sounded like a seagul having a bitch-fit. It was a god day.

I went swimming / hot tub relaxing and found I really , really like wearing bikinis. Swim trunks don’t make me feel sexy but bikinis do.

I kinda like showing off my curves in public , having on a tight bikini that my ass and tits pop out of , jiggling as I walk , knowing I’m just gonna outgrow this bikini too making it even tighter.


It’s also fun feeling the water on my curves

All I can say is I love the diving board even at 5 foot two and 340 pounds. I still love to do it and I make a hell of a cannonball.
