Any alternatives to ff online?

Beachside Farmer:
There is nothing like this site left around. Curvage is the only site left with a forum.

BigOke02:
Oh? Anything like Feabie then?

Munchies:
Sadly no. There used to be more feedist sites, but they all crashed and burned over time. Now, if you wanna check out a site that welcomes feedists but isn't strictly a feedist site, you might want to check out Fetlife.

BigOke02:
Thx I'll look into that 👍


Good luck, my guy!

Gaining subcutaneous fat, according to chatgpt

SquishMaster:
Hey all,

ChatGPT has this feature now called "Deep Research", where it tries to use online sources to research your Q's and give you accurate info. So naturally, I asked it how to gain subcutaneous fat over visceral fat lol.

My prompt:
"I know that gaining weight has its issues. But I've heard that subcutaneous fat is actually not that bad compared to visceral fat.

How can I ensure that I only gain subcutaneous fat, if I were to try and gain weight?"


There was a little back and forth about what my goals were exactly, but it ended up providing a pretty comprehensive answer. It's too long to post here, but here's the summary:

"Bottom Line: Gaining weight primarily as subcutaneous fat involves eating more calories (focus on fats and carbs), minimizing stress and sleep loss, and keeping some muscle-building exercise in your routine. This favors a softer, “plusher” physique while helping to guard against dangerous belly fat. Even with this goal, remember that very high body fat carries health risks; regular checkups and healthy habits (sleep, stress management, no smoking) are important as you go about gaining weight safely"

I mean, who knows how accurate it really is, but it's neat that it'll tell you things like this!


What a perfect example of why researching things with AI is a waste of time and should be ignored.

Whether or not you primarily gain subcutaneous or visceral fat is not something you can control. You can try to mitigate things by exercising since the body burns visceral fat before subcutaneous fat, but it's not like you can trick your body into gaining a specific way.

Glutamate

Faaaat:
The packaging says glutamate but it might be the translation, so I guess MSG. Also not eating it by itself but putting it in food.

Glutamate

Faaaat:
Hey, I was wondering if anyone has any experience with glutamate? like how much can you consume safely at one time or in a day?


Glutamate? Like by itself? Because that shit's in pretty much everything like tomatoes and cheese. Or are you talking about MSG?

Extreme ssbbw admiration in ot

Olga01:
Okay, so what are misinterpretations I've made or my sources have made? To say the truth, it's of little interest to me, what Amos thought about these women. For me it's interesting that there were flourishing families in Samaria, where the women were appreciated SSBBWs and USSBBWs.

As for Amos himself, the idea that he wanted to condemn only the oppressive means by which these women got their sources for life, seems unacceptable for me because of the following consideration. Does really the fatness have anything in common with over exploitation? Do the lean women of elite really exploit the common people less, then the fat women of elite do? That is improbable. It is not food or fattening food of elite that can be a burden for the common people to supply for. It is various luxurious goods , large buildings and hordes of servants that can demand great labor for common people to provide all these things for elite, not food. So if Amos would have wanted to condemn greedy overexploitation of the commoners by the elite, he would not mention fatness or fat women at all.


Fatness was a status symbol back in the day. And having a fat wife was even more of a status symbol. It was a sign that you had more than enough money to spoil her excessively.

Something you are missing is that Israel was experiencing famine at this time. Amos 4:6-10 goes into great detail about how the average Hebrew fared at this time. Locusts, droughts, failed harvests, and people starving in the streets. Yet, somehow, the elites found plenty of food to keep their wives fat, spoiled, and happy.

And it's not like these women weren't aware of what was happening on some level. Verses 10 - 11 mention this period of extreme unrest and war. Amos warned the Hebrews for years before this point, especially to the Kings of Judah and Israel. They didn't care about anyone other than themselves.

Help with “flavour fatigue”?

Casually Walking:
She eats mostly rice based dishes and like vegetables and stuff at home, her landlords are Philippino and share food with her, but eats mall food for lunch at work, with more meat based dishes with me, like beef and chicken


If her diet is mostly rice+veggies+meat, then she should play around with things. Swap out the starches. Play around with spices and sauces. Try foods from other cultures.

Help with “flavour fatigue”?

Casually Walking:
So, my girlfriend decided that she’s ok with gaining weight a couple months ago, she’s gained roughly 2kg since. Lately though, we’ve been running into what I believe it’s called flavour fatigue, and it feels like she’s specially susceptible to it

Honestly, I just want to know if there’s anything to reduce it or get rid of it altogether. Obviously varying the flavours will help, but currently we’re on a slight budget with limited storage. Plus, we don’t live together so having too many leftovers would be an issue

Thanks


What does she normally eat?

Personal trainer defends obesity…sort of?

Munchies:
Yeah, that was a whole thing. Thankfully, no one assumes I'm with my partner for fetish purposes, but this is mainly because a black Southern woman, and there's a whole ass stereotype. But even then, it's sad how people refuse to believe that anyone could find fat people attractive without being "deviant."

JN_TumLover56:
Yeah exactly. I had have seen such things happening firsthand, especially in comment sections out on the socials. It’s not fun whatsoever.

But hey I’m happy to hear that you’re able to work things out well with your partner with how everyone thinks about you two!


Yeah, we did. Some people don't get it if we are not together and show off pictures of the other. But whenever we are together, people immediately understand. We get stopped a lot by people saying how cute we look together.

Personal trainer defends obesity…sort of?

Munchies:
This is a good point. Sure, women will always have it worse when it comes to fatphobia, but men aren't safe from it either.

For example, it's common for people to see fat men as ugly. How often do you hear people mocking men for being fat the moment they do something someone else doesn't like?

I also see people tell fat men that if they want to find love, they have to have other things that "make up" for their fatness. Hell, when my partner told his parents about me (before we even met or he showed them a picture of me) they were worried I was a scammer trying to get his money. It wasn't anything I did or said. They were convinced that no one would want a 500 lbs man unless they wanted to use him.

JN_TumLover56:
Thank you! And you also got a point as well when it comes to emphasize the part when I mentioned the men. It’s already hard enough to be a guy in the modern dating scene, but to really try and prove yourself even as a bigger guy is a whole different story.

Oh and how you can relate to your own personal experience (with your current partner) was an interesting thing to mention. Especially true when usual couples get together and people wonder if they’re using them or just ONLY for a fetish.


Yeah, that was a whole thing. Thankfully, no one assumes I'm with my partner for fetish purposes, but this is mainly because a black Southern woman, and there's a whole ass stereotype.
