Um…. May I ask why the block feature doesn’t work? I’m still receiving replies from people I blocked literally years ago. That doesn’t make any sense. Is there an admin that I could talk too or something?
I Am Uo:
Replies in the forums? Or in direct message, blocking only stops direct messages
Arame:
So even if you block them, they still comment on your posts? That don’t make sense smh
They aren't your posts tho. On the forum you just create a topic and anyone can respond to it. That's why when someone deleted their original message in a topic they created the topic still remains and people can still carry on the conversation. Blocking is only for people who are harassing you in DM's. And if someone is breaking the rules in a forum post you can report it to the mods and they regularly close forum threads if they become toxic

So,
Apparently social media influencers are continuing their never ending creativity of saying an existing word and putting “maxxing” at the end of it in order to seem like they’ve come up with some revolutionary concept.
Now, they’re trying to rebrand feederism as “Fatmaxxing”. Dear God 🤦🏾♂️. To be fair, I’m 32. So, take my old-head bias with a grain of salt.
What do you all think? Yay or Nay?
Munchies:
I blame the incels on 4Chan.
With that said, I am out of the loop on this one. Who is saying fatmaxxing?
I looked it up and I'm not sure, I saw a few links to X but I refuse to touch that god forsaken platform. The next closest thing I found was a forum on a trans subreddit about trans women intentionally gaining weight to appear more feminine and weighing the pros and cons of it. Which is feedism adjacent, but that's more fighting gender dysphoria rather than a kink thing

Pasta is always a good option for gaining weight. My favorite recipe is getting those jumbo shells from the store, boiling them and stuffing them in ricotta cheese. Then add a healthy layer of sauce to an aluminum pan and set the stuffed shells inside. Then add another layer of sauce on top with some cheese (I prefer colby jack). Then set it to bake in the oven and serve it with bread sticks. As long as you have a big enough pan you'll have enough for you, your partner, and/or lunch for tomorrow

I'm not super obese (yet) and my gain has been pretty slow so these realizations have come in waves. At first it was just discovering my body has weight to it now. When I was super thin I didn't have to worry as much about whether or not what I was standing on could support my weight. Now I'm getting scarily close to reaching the weight limit of the ladders at work. The next stage was a hit to my endurance, I'm still relatively active so the hit hasn't been huge but I can definitely tell doing more strenuous tasks take more energy. And now I'm at the stage where my belly is starting to become noticeable. I'm not fully used to having it around, it's very comfortable especially when laying down or lounging. But at the same time it's a little bit awkward having to shift my weight around when standing up. It's not super noticable just yet, on account of how small she still is, but going from nothing to something still feels pretty extreme to me.

Bovine Princess:
I’m very conflicted about gaining weight. For context, I’m a bit chubby right now, not through intentional weight gain, and I’m not super fat. It feels like my desires are conflicting, on one hand, my fetishistic and sexual desires want me to get obese, but my nonsexual desires want me to get fit since I like being active. Plus I worry about fat ruining my face structure.
Was or is anyone else in my position? What did you decide? If you decided to go through with it, was it worth it? Any advice?
I say this a lot but being fit and being fat don't have to be mutually exclusive. They often are but if you take the right precautions you can still stay fairly active while gaining weight. Id recommend trying some weightlifting with a focus on lower body and core strength along with some cardio. If weightlifting isn't something you're interested in I definitely recommend hiking, it's decent cardio and depending on what the incline is like at your local state park it can be a really good lower body workout. Mind you, you will burn more calories going this route so you will have to eat more on average to gain at a decent rate. But that's up to you to decide if it's worth it or not

Id say still continue lifting and maybe a little bit of cardio to carry the weight easier. There are many heavyset people that are crazy athletic despite their size so you dont need to completely abandon that.
JohnT:
I will suggest that to my nearly 600 pound wife, whose belly apron hangs down her knees as she waddles from room to room gasping for breath 🙄
Yes that would be a nice thing to suggest to her, since it seems like mobility is an issue for her. You don't have to lose weight to be healthier. It's possible to help her build up strength and endurance so she has an easier time navigating without the use of mobility aids. Obviously she's at the extreme end of the scale at 600 lbs so she's not going to be crazy athletic like Serph described. But as a loving husband you should want to help make her life easier

Good for you. I can't tell you much myself. I have always been big. So I wouldn't noticed much. Other than being out of breath going up stairs, haha
See I've always been really skinny so all of this is an entirely new sensation to md

Kitsune:
I will admit I never went on an intense ride ever in my lifetime. I do want to try one though. Maybe Space Mountain can be my first baby steps. Yeah, I think it turns out I am more of an atmosphere type of person. Hence why Tokyo Disneysea and Hong Kong Disneyland tickle my fancy. If only crowds weren't an issue because once again I get very anxious and fear of getting lost.
SumoSized:
Yeah the crowds are the biggest issue and I've heard they've only gotten worse. You basically have to pay extra for the fast pass system so you don't have to wait in crazy long lines
Kitsune2:
I partially watched a Defunct Disneyland video on that. (my attention span is short lol) If my memory serves correctly, doesn't the Fast Pass get used by a bunch of people to the point it causes more lines?
Honestly probably, there's no such thing as a quick anything at Disney parks. But fast pass is probably still faster than waiting in the normal line

For me it's still fairly subtle but it was extra noticeable today. I work retail on weekends for some extra cash, it's not particularly difficult work and and it pays surprisingly well. Today was May the 4th and we had a big star wars promotion in the store. Star wars related items were on sale and people went nuts over them so the store was packed. It was a very tight squeeze to get between people, and i was struggling. We also were selling out of stuff crazy fast so I spent half my shift just walking back and forth from the stock room restocking shelves so my legs were killing me only a few hours into my shift. I also noticed that it's so much easier to completely sit down on the ground to restock lower shelves rather than just bending over.
So now I'm curious to hear other people's stories, how does your added weight affect how you get around in day to day life?
Big Belly Jim:
I worked retail for 8yrs, weight was generally around 280-300lbs. Sitting down to stock shelves was always much easier.
SumoSized:
It definitely is now, but it wasn't always. Before I'd just kneel down and place whatever I needed to on the shelves. But now that strains my back too much especially on busy days when I'm constantly walking back and forth to the stock room
Big Belly Jim:
Still have a quite a ways to go, haha. many get harder as you get bigger, haha
Oh definitely, I'm still planning planning on putting on another 100-150 lbs minimum. I just like to make these posts asking about people who have already gotten to my goal weight just so I know what to expect when I'm that size

I was just curious if anyone has any experiences starting out as a feedee and getting more interested in the mutual gaining/feedee side of things? That should be be feeder to feedee in the headline*
That was definitely me, though I was really just a FA since I was a teen at the time and wasn't about to do any feedings. Then eventually it sort of clicked when I realized if I was attracted to others who wanted to gain weight, why don't I gain weight myself to see if I liked it. This was also around the time when I first heard other people talk about "dad bods" and I realized most of my friend group were attracted to guys who were on the chunkier side
