This might just be the part of Texas that I live in but there are local Mexican restaurants everywhere where you can get breakfast tacos cheap so it's a really easy way to pack on a couple thousand calories. Especially if you make it a plate. There's one within walking distance of my work and it's embarrassing that the employees are immediately able to recognize me

Munchies:
Mexican, Cuban, really any Latino-owned tacquiera. You can get a lot of high quality food for a good deal.

Same with Asian markets. Honestly, if you go to stores run by immigrants for immigrants, you tend to get good deals.

Avoid the places made with Americans in mind. It will be overpriced.

As someone who has a really fast metabolism that sounds like an absolute dream. I've probably gained 22 lbs in the last year, and it's not from a lack of trying. My body just physically doesn't want fat on it right now, so I've thought I'm eating 3-4k calories a day the weight just won't stick

Glitter Jelly:
We should trade bodies.

Sounds like you guys had an amazing time! Thanks for sharing with us, I've always wondered how traveling would be at that size. My wife and I are no where near that size yet, but if and when one of us does reach this size it's good to know there's accommodations. I wish you two nothing but the best and many happy years together!

BigBallBellyGirl:
Thank you so much!

Supersized travel is definitely possible. I used to fly more frequently but I was 350-375 then. This was my first time on a plane at anywhere close to this weight. It certainly requires a lot of planning, and I'm well aware there would be plenty of places that would be impossible because of inaccessibility.

The best piece of advice I could offer would be to make no assumptions and call ahead. In booking at the resort, we asked for a call from management at the actual property, which we got. I was very transparent about my needs, and the answers we got were accurate.

Additionally, i'd encourage a very large person traveling to understand, there will be some discomfort and inconvenience. Flying simply isn't comfortable, and aircraft bathrooms are impossible. In those cases, you plan accordingly and make the best of it

Good luck to you and your wife with wherever your gaining journeys lead. Don't let anyone make you think your adventures are automatically over as a big person. As long as you're mobile, you have options!

I'm glad she likes her clothes! If she barely eats and is gaining weight anyway, she should probably get her thyroid checked.

I saw the endocrinologist last monday and he basically said that there is no clear endocrinogic cause to my sudden and fast WG. He said:

- he's "not impressed" (this is actually the words he used although I imagine he meant "not worried" ) with my prolactin levels even if it was less than 15 two years ago and have been rising since March of this year (27 --> 30 --> 33)

- I can't have hypothyroidism (even if I have most of the symptoms and my mom has it) because my TSH, T4 and T3 levels are normal

- the symptoms I've had my whole life are probably related to an excess of androgens (he mentioned PCOs but doesn't seem to want the investigate or treat my for that) that was "hidden" by the fact I took the contraceptive pill from the age of 14 to at least 25 and now that I'm not taking it the male hormones are once again dominating

- I'm probably premenopausal and my body has been producing more and more estrogen to stimulate ovulation (basically describing estrogen dominance) and "it's normal for women my age to gain weight around menopause"

- the cause of my WG is "in my head" even if lately this is the other way around (gaining back the weight I worked so hard to lose around 2015 is severely impacting my mental health to the point I have suicidal ideations)

- my metabolism is slow because I lost almost 100 lbs during my 2015 anorexia relapse and unless I restrict myself significantly I won't maintain because any caloric excess will be stored as fat (he doesn't seem to understand I can't control myself at night and binge unless my kitchen cabinets and fridge are locked)

He prescribed more blood tests (and a mineral bone density at my demand) because his main concern is my elevated PTH and low calcium which are most likely due to the lack of dairy products in my diet (I'm lactose intolerant).

My next appointment will be in February but my hopes there was going to be a fixable medical cause to my WG has evaporated.

I cried so much after the appointment, I feel like the only thing I can do to prevent becoming obese again is restricting my food intake more and bingeing less... I'm getting so desperate I'm considering purchasing diet pills, progesterone cream or thyroid extract online to see if that can help.

Hiya. I am 23 years old, female and over 600 pounds. I’ve been gaining weight very rapidly lately, and I think I have to do with me having an increased slow metabolism. I could eat one sandwich and not feel full at all yet I have 2 pounds in the process of eating one sandwich. I think a lot of my weight gain recently has really come from eating food that has starch in it. Within the last two weeks alone, I have gained 22 pounds unintentionally. I’m not mad about the weight game but I’m wonder if there are any other feedees/foodies here who also have a slow metabolism as well. Some questions I have:

- Do you think that it’s a plus to have slow metabolism, while also being a feedee/foodie?
- Do you eat more than you normally do to increase your slow metabolism, so that you gain weight at a faster pace or do you stick to your regular routine?
