That's how I measure my gain, with a tape measure. I measure my belly at its roundest point first thing in the morning, when it's still empty (54 inches this morning).
I also usually measure my chest (50 inches today), arm (16 inches), and thigh (28.5 inches). Now and then I'll measure my neck.
Keeping old clothes around is another great way of measuring. I still kick myself that I got rid of some of the stuff I wear in my older pix since I'd be popping buttons on some of them now.

To be 54 inches (4 1/2 feet) around standing and not stuffed, first thing in the morning.
To have boobs big enough to fill out a bra and have a proper cup size.
To have a double chin and a thick neck with little rolls when I move my head.
Most of all, to look soft, porky, and well-fed.

I love mine...my only gripe is that a lot of it is sideboob so I need a bra or a bikini top to make it look like I have tits. Still, getting boobs was a major goal for me, especially since I'm mostly belly.

What sort of place would people be interested in going to? Pizza? Buffet?

Two or three times over the years I tried to get a Chicago meetup organized but never got a single response. Oh well.

I use a tape measure instead of a scale. My belly hovers between 52 and 54 inches around standing and not stuffed.

Your belly is 46% big!

You are quite average. You are sometimes healthy, and exercise a bit, though your belly is a bit plump.

Being able to fill out a bra and a bikini top was a major goal for me. I love the idea of having to wear bras every day.

The solution would be to create a site specifically for people looking for actual relationships, that excludes all financial transactions and doesn't cater to individuals seeking "online only".
Sure, but the ratio of men to women would be 100 to 1, and every woman would get mobbed with emails and messages asking if she wants to gain 500 lbs in the next year.
