I've been to water parks twice as an adult and enjoyed both times. One trip was to the Six Flags near Houston. I was around 370 pounds, and I knew I'd be too fat for most rides because I have a huge belly. I did enjoy myself though, cooling off periodically by sitting in various pools and eating tons of park food in my bikini. I don't recall if they weighed folks or not, but I do remember a height and weight limit being posted at the gate for most attractions.
In high school, I went to Busch Gardens with a friend's family. It was the summer I blew up by about 75 pounds over break, and I didn't realize how fat I was getting. I was only fourteen, but I was already too big for anything that had a bar across the chest or a harness.

Oh, the irony. A few weeks ago, a medical emergency sent me to the hospital and required surgery. Now I'm having to make some major lifestyle challenges, including totally different way of eating. I'm not loving it, but it's necessary, so I'm making the best of it.
Tuesday, I got DoorDash from a place where I've been regularly ordering a double cheeseburger, a buffalo chicken panini, fries, onion rings, fried mushrooms, and spinach and artichoke dip as my go to. Instead, I dutifully got a grilled buffalo chicken wrap and a side of steamed broccoli. Halfway through my meal, I got up to get more water from my kitchen. When I came back to my recliner, where I'd been eating off a folding TV table, I pulled down my shirt, which was riding up. When I sat down, I split a seam with a startlingly loud rip. It was a comforting reminder that I am, and always will be, a fatty.

Last Thanksgiving, I set a record for my biggest feeding ever, taking in close to 90K calories in two days. I've had a recurring dream about being that stuffed since; often, in the dream, I wake on day 3, still so ballooned I can barely sit upright, and start stuffing again.
5 months
Yes, especially when completely engorged. Extreme stuffing is one of my key interests, so I absolutely relate to this. During some of my biggest feats, I would get so bloated my rolls would almost "flatten" out because everything would get stretched and tight. In that state, my belly would feel super sensitive. Currently, I'm dealing with some medical issues, so sadly, I can't stuff. Instead, I'm enjoying more belly play, minus the feedings.

Interestingly, I don't think I do. Other interests? Yes. Other kinks? No. Not that I'm aware of, at least.

You can see the aftermath on my profile.
But last night went VERY well. Me and my husband had our first experience with another feeder and needless to say it went VERY well.
I feel like this is opening up new horizons for my husband and I as well as the two of us with our new feeder!
I was so stuffed last night I went to bed looking 9 months pregnant, no joke. And I already want more.
My stretch marks were starting to shine again and I'm excited for them to start turning pink and growing even further across my body.
I would love to hear if anyone has had a similar experience!
Ask any question (within reason) and I will get back to you as soon as I can!
I'm excited you're having fun! I know you and your husband are adults and already know this... Just beware of people who want to use your personal information, images, etc. for harm. Enjoy your growth!

A member informed me I am a pear shape.
Quote:
It is very rare shape. This is a blessing among ssbhms to be a pear,
I am interested to know more and why is it rare?
I'd say, once you get into SSBHM territory, there are PLENTY of pear-shaped guys. And I think there's also a hybrid body type with a big belly AND big hips/rear. It's no different really than my body shape as a woman... large pot belly, fairly firm for being as big as I am. Human bodies come in all kinds of beautiful forms.

I would like this thread to be of actual life style and practical real world solutions to living and support yourself at very large weights.
1 - equipment and aids
2 - clothing
3 - external support
4 - transport
5 - finically
I write this a gainer going to be 600 plus in a few years, and I would like to be prepared.
So current information please, and ideally for Australia.
Thanks in advance BWL.
You'll want a mobility aid like a scooter for sure, and in my case, that necessitated trading my sedan for a van with an external mount and cover. In the US, the scooters available at most stores and other venues only support about 500 pounds.

Friends--
I hope no one takes this as me mistaking this forum for the airport, where departures are announced publicly. I also hope no one feels this is my attempt to chastise, dissuade, or judge anyone else. Couldn't be further from opposite.
I was taken to the hospital this morning with chest pain and inability to breathe. I'm having surgery at some point either tonight or in the morning to remove some blockages. I also have liver dysfunction. I'm not a drinker; in my case, it's related to excess fat consumption..
I have zero regrets about my gaining journey, and I'm actually very happy with my physical appearance. However, I'm not 30 yet, and I'm getting married this year. I'm going to have to reassess because I actually want to see my wedding and make it beyond that to see what the rest of my life holds. I really hope that includes a way to continue to indulge this fetish in a mindful manner. And likely, as I have been for well over a decade, I will still be lurking. 😊💜
I'm genuinely only posting because I've talked with so many people here, and I've enjoyed our exchanges and time together, but I don't even know your first names! I wanted you to know I think you all are beautiful people, and I wish you the most enjoyment life has to offer. I'm not closing my account, but I'll probably be semi-silent for a while.
Hugs, positive energy, and warm wishes to each and everyone of you!

Hey hun, feel better soon.
If you want to talk or just need some advise, you can hit me up. I'd like to think of myself as an expert on your specific situation. My DMs are always open.
I certainly will send you a DM. Thank you. I think the challenges are going to set in when I get to go home, because changes are a must.

I remember he had to have an MRI for an unrelated health issue and barely fit into the tube. Scared the shit out of him. He said that he never wants to be too fat for healthcare.
Personally, I think that's a really good thing to keep in mind. Once you reach a certain side, the medical world isn't built with you in mind. I don't think a lot of feedists think about that.

You're exactly right.
A few years ago, I remember hearing about a horrifying, relevant situation, which I believe took place around Cleveland, OH.
I would guess some users might get a thrill out of this story, but that is absolutely not the intent of it. If anything, a cautionary tale.
So, there was this woman,who weighed something like 650, 700+ lbs. She really needed an MRI scan. But.. problem!
None of the machines at the hospital were large enough to accommodate her.
The Cleveland Zoo had an MRI machine in the veterinarian's office that would be big enough. But, it wasn't licensed and certified for use on humans, and maybe this really shows ignorance, but I'm pretty sure that licensing process can't be completed in 1 day or a few hours as a rush job, nor do I know what's involved in the licensing process.
I have no idea what the outcome of that was, but even without knowing this, this is already a severe complication and a scary situation.
I wish I could find this chart again, but 600+ lbs does solidly place you well above 0.5% on the distribution curve (this means 99.5% of individuals weigh less/have a lower BMI than you do).
Of course, it's all about girth (and the girth of the machine) and no, I have no idea what her girth was at the widest point.
However, I wouldn't be surprised if the hospital administrators simply didn't anticipate this situation would ever arise. I don't know how old the hospital is, when the MRI machine was procured, or what was going through the minds of the administrators, or what doctors said while being consulted, prior to procurement.
This is the experience I'm living right now, in the wake of a medical emergency last week. While much of the medical equipment is built to accommodate my weight in pounds, my girth presented one issue after another (circumference at the widest part of midsection was around 110 inches). Even the height of the OR table (or rather the inability to lower it beyond a certain point) was an issue.
I'll just say, being too big to get the care you need quickly in an emergency isn't fun and it isn't a thrill. It's pretty scary when it happens.
