I've kinda crossed that threshold where my gain is starting to be very noticeable. Everybody is starting to comment on it. I'm not sure how to take it. The first couple people to point it out kinda got to me at first (they weren't very nice about it), but now I try to just shrug it off. In a way I'm proud (at least internally), but at the same time, I almost consider trying to loose the bit I have gained (21 pounds). How do you guys and gals take the criticism?

Started off completely intentional for me, with heavy cream shakes, double meals, and constant snacking through the day. Now my appetite has grown, and I'm just steadily gaining now.

Yes and no, mentally I want to be skinnier - I don't want to give up the ability to be active/do hard physical labor. But when I'm eating and playing with my fat - I really wish there was more.

This happened to me as well, well at least the significant other finding out part. She teased me for it a little bit then dropped it. Now it’s like it never happened.....

You look like you're at that threshold where any more gains will be very visible. Don't give up, I've got a similar situation, but every time I go in the car and feel something that jiggles a little bit more than before, I get super excited to gain again. I'll usually stop at a fast food joint and pick up some more heavy cream. I'm a bit of a closet gainer myself.

Hello all,
I’m still at a bit of a plateau, and I’m trying to break through it. Has anybody noticed a difference on how much it sticks based upon when they drink the heavy cream? I’ve been stuffing with fast food and while my waistline has been growing, the weight hasn’t. I’ve been hanging around 176-180 for quite some time.

My fantasy is a resort where you sign up for the desired weight increase, from there you are funnel fed gainer shake every several hours, only being able to nap and sit in place in-between. Of course this whole experience is documented as the weight is gained.

There were several years I attempted to gain, with no success. I gave it a crack again several months ago, and went on a work trip (all expenses paid), so of course we ate at plenty of expensive restaurants, and when I came back I found I had put on about 10 pounds, clothes were just a little bit tighter, but barely noticeable. One day a coworker made a comment about how I used to be so slim, and poked my belly. I had never noticed, but I had went from almost having abs, to having a significant belly bump, that I noticed later that day after walking past a mirror.

I thought to myself, "Damn, so I'm finally getting fat."

Hello all,

I have been trying to gain for a bit and had hit a bit of a plateau, I didn't think anything of it, but one day a friend made a remark how it was like I was always wearing the tightest clothes I could find. (I didn't think I was). I was a little shocked at first, maybe a little embarrassed, but secretly I was pretty happy that my gain is showing. Needless to say, I bought some bigger clothes shortly after. Does anyone have the same feelings about getting called out in public like this?

Now that I think about it, every time I'd bend over, my ass would hang out, or every time I'd stretch or reach, my stomach might have shown a little bit.

I'm a little torn if I should continue to wear those old clothes now....

Just as an expirament before I decide to go full fatty, I'm thinking about 190-200 is what I'd like to get to. Or until I start seeing stretchmarks.
