What gets my heart racing in a good way is when my other half says something that lets me know how much I love her figure :-)

One cold night outside recently, we opted to just pig out on canned chili (shredded cheese and Doritos). I guess our bowls just weren’t big enough because my wife says to me, “I hope we have more. I’m like, ravenous tonight.” Just one of the little things she says when hungry that really turn me on :-) Her weight yo-yo’s between 320-ish and 340-ish, depending on our budget.

My wife is roughly 150 pounds heavier than me, so I guess that makes us quite the “contrast couple.” :-)

Wife and I both were raised loving and appreciating the kitchen! One of our favorites is a big pot of rotini pasta in a stewy broth with some peppers, onions and smoked sausage :-)

I can remember seeing Angelou in interviews years ago talking about the book, but I’ve not ever read it. I know it’s a classic, though.

Always been a nonfiction guy, especially autobiographies. I’m currently reading former Rush frontman Geddy Lee’s new autobio. Powerful stuff so far.

I had to start cutting back on the fried food two years ago after I had a n arterial blockage addressed. But I’ve adjusted to enjoying all things baked and boiled and my belly has returned :-) My wife, as all on here know is a lovely and proud big girl, has done the same but we’ve found enough enjoyment to still maintain our lovely shapes :-)

Always nice to see some fellow Southerners in here :-)

As we’re known for being the fattest region of the country, it’s tough to tell between people actively feeding each other or if they’re just fat by eating the same kind of diet most Americans eat.

And I once worked food service myself, many years ago. We did donuts in the morning and became a knockoff of Krystal’s in the afternoon, serving the small burgers. I should’ve weighed a thousand pounds, right? Well, not yet. I worked there in my 20s and it wasn’t until my 30s that my metabolism slowed down and got the big basketball belly :-)

We’re all pulling for ya. Romy! Mobility and health is most important now.

I’d have to say it wasn’t an age, but an age range. My 30s saw me gain about 60-75 pounds gradually. This was after a boyhood spent solidly on the thin side. I’ve lost a slight bit of it, but it still forms the round ball belly I like to take pictures of for my pics section here :-)

Ha, nice :-) Many of us would’ve only found you much sexier after that initial gain!
