That sounds really fun! Agree there doesn't seem to be much mutual content (beyond the gay community), would be awesome to see what you guys wind up doing [/quote]

Yeah! we are excited. She was gonna make her account this weekend. But, we ended up moving to a new bigger apartment so that has gotten in the way. But, we figured to start with pics, maybe videos, then do streams. I guess just stuff with the both of us. We aren't doing anything too risky or sexual. As we are an old married couple, lol. But, figure it could be fun!

My wife and I are living it right now. She slowly has gotten to about 300lbs over the years. Especially after I said I liked her size and told her about all this stuff. Then finally I have gotten the chance and she is happy with that. So all a fun journey! I've heard there isn't much mutual content out there. So we are trying to make some and figure something out to make it more a thing

It may seem simple, and technically it is. But, gaining can be and is very hard! Not even counting cost, budget, work, and life. Just the act of eating enough calories to get fat. As someone who wasn't overweight before trying this, gaining has been hard as hell! The weeks and longer it took for me to be able to even get close to 2,000 calories into me each day without feeling sick. Then to do all that and then get excess calories! That was even more weeks. I had to rely on heavy cream, as I cannot physically get enough calories with normal food and drink, and enough to gain decently without it. There are many a person who has it really hard to gain weight. Just as there are many for whom it is very hard to lose weight. Different body types, medical conditions, hell if my Crohns was active I wouldn't be gaining a damn ounce! Medications and many many factors affect a person's weight. I am not being confrontational, but just saying, none of all this is easy. It's hard. But anything worth doing is hard.

Genetics is most likely the single biggest factor in almost everything to do with one's weight and where it goes and what type, etc. But yeah, it seems that genetics is the only thing that determines where you will store sub fat. As in there is no way to intentionally gain in a certain area. There are some medications that can cause weight to redistribute to certain areas. But, that is extremely dangerous and no doctor would do that. But, just making you aware that there could be a chance you might be on medication at some point in your life that could have an effect on that. Of course, I am not a doctor or anything. Most of what I have said I have either learned from reading Becomingoverweight's posts, doing my own research online, or personal experience. So take it all for what it is, lol. Hope that helps a bit! Take care!

Yes, very true. Now, the seafood of course is amazing! I found this nice little shanty right on the water in Dennis. Amazing fried seafood! I love seafood, so am happy with that change. But, Pizza! it's like just one of those foods that you have to have a place you like. There is a place in Hyannis, right on Main St called the Brazilian Grill. It's all you can eat. They have a salad bar, but you get to order unlimited side dishes and the people come around with freshly cooked meats and give you as much as you want. They have 16 different things they bring from table to table. It's quite a great experience. A little pricey, but all you can eat! So come hungry!

I’m actually from nyc born and raised and Pepe pizza is my favorite pizza. Good pizza is so hard to come by here that my husband (who is a feeder) trained himself to make pizza just like back home and it really is better than anything here. We really need to open a pizza place here lol.[/quote]

Yes! lol I have often done the same. I mean I am 100% Italian if I didn't know how to cook I think I get whacked, lol. Cooking in my family is something everyone learns. I remember being just a kid and watching my grandmother and grandfather taught me how to make gravy. Yes, we Italians from NYC call tomato sauce gravy Which I am sure you've heard growing up in NYC. Seriously, you should open a pizza place! It is so hard to find a legit good place I am sure it would be a great success in VT!

As you know Becomingoverweights info is a great resource. Stick to things like heavy cream and stay away from excess sugar that will cause visceral fat. Through diet and just a small amount of exercise, it should be doable. Since visceral fat is around the organs and under the muscle if you have it, which you do need some, but you would get more of a beer belly that is hard. Where if it is soft and above the muscles that is Sub fat. If you can grab and jiggle it that is sub fat. Also if you gain in other places, like thighs, butt, moobs, etc then that also will be sub fat. So eat and drink all the things that contribute to Sub fat and reduce visceral fat. While also getting that little bit of exercise to also help reduce visceral fat. You seem to have an idea already of what to do and how. just a matter of doing it now. Best of luck!

That has been the recent trend. With the cost of living being so high. Granted we just moved to Cape Cod because my wife got a good job here. But, the cost of living isn't any cheaper than CT. It's about the same really. It sickening how much cheaper other states, like say TN, GA, or other southern states are compared to New England. But, I also love CT and New England, so it's a hard choice to leave all we love and family, but be able to afford a much better life... :/

We moved basically for the same reason. We had a condo there and the area became really bad (police there all the time, ambulances, fire dept etc...yes, there was always some sort of fire there) and the only places there that we could afford was also in not so great neighborhoods so my husband got a job in VT and the price of living is actually better here, but we’ll see how long that lasts. All of our family already left ct before that but you know I really do miss ct. They had some really amazing restaurants there.[/quote]

Oh I hear you! We can't find good pizza to save our life here on Cape Cod. Not that compares to CT pizza in any way. Funny enough, my family came over from Italy back in the day. Lived in NYC. The Bronx and Yonkers. They all migrated out for many of the reasons you said. It got dangerous and also expensive. Some went upstate NY the rest, including my parents, went to CT. Which were all fine well and good for them, still is. But for us younger generations with how crap income is and expensive cost of living is. Trying to pay $1500 rent, car, and all other bills on even 2 incomes can be hard stuff. Nothing compared to what it was like in the 70s-80s.
My wife went to school in VT as well as my youngest brother. So we are familiar with it. Also, my grandparents lived in Plattsburgh. Yeah, I can see where the restaurant situation wouldn't compare to CT, lol. Hell, even Cape Cod where we are, has tons of great restaurants. But, there are just some things, like pizza, that are still hard to find and to find good examples of. Thankfully, we go back to CT to visit the family and pick up some good food before we leave, lol.

I space it out best i can. Many a time we have been without food. There are ways to get it. Check local food pantries. Soup kitchens. There are ways to get food. pasta is really cheap, if you can get a little butter and salt makes for a great meal, and filling with very little money. Best wishes!
