I can't suck in mine anymore but it was never about sucking in my gut; I used to wear compression shirts because I was self conscious about how my moobs looked and moved around independently as I walked around but now I can't find compression shirts past XXXXL

I used to have this issue until I realized that when I bought pants and they weren't the stretch type of fabric; I had to buy one to two sizes bigger just in case because I knew that I would grow into them. Size 58-60 and counting π½π½π½π½π½

Literally became one of those types feeders who when unable to feed someone, turns it in on themselves over a period of time. Years back growing up, I never would have opted for this until the triggers were no longer dormant from inside.
When my own enjoyment of food et al was as enjoyable as my attraction to ssbbw/ussbbw I kind of knew it was a matter of time no matter how long.
For quite a few feeders, this is how they waddle into this space not realizing that they like getting fat just as much as assisting someone with getting fatter. It is the natural progression of this lifestyle of ours. Mine happened when I had someone introduce the possibility of purposely getting fat and I jumped into it and even she said with how I saw fat that eventually I would turn it in on myself and I might like that even moreso. Our younger selves, might have ran away from the option of getting fat but when you get into your middle ages that is when you are like "to hell with it" and you say why not get fat ? I could have never imagined that I would have been this obese in my teens and twenties.

I truly think that my brain shuts off when I get around chips and cookies because I can destroy whole packages of Oreos without even realizing that I ate them and then I want more. I will get full easily off of anything else but my stomach act like it gives a special pass for barbeque chips and Oreos. π½π½π½π½π½

This is a truly spot on assessment of how both lifestyles correlate and how each side responds to their particular "fix". I have dated women who were absolutely ravenous about gaining to a particular number so they wouldn't eat during the day so they would binge to the point of eating themselves asleep at night and there was a whole mindlessness about it and I didn't grasp it until recently that for some gaining is a part of their addiction.

It may never be enough for you. I know for some of us it has more to do with our addiction to food and stuffing than with the gain. The gaining is a by product of the addiction. This fat gift of ours has a habit of getting us so caught up in eating that we only notice the gain after our mobility changes for the worse.

Looking back at it, I would go down south with my parents for the summer and I would see how my aunts and cousins were treating their fat spouses and I have never been the type with a chiseled look so having a belly is something that I have always had so even as a child I knew that I was going to either be fatter or completely obese. And after I graduated college and saved up enough money that was when I met an ex and she introduced me to this lifestyle and it was like a match made in pound cakes because we both were overeaters and we didn't have self control so it started from there.

When I used to take public transportation; I would ride the trains (especially, the elevated trains). I would get winded climbing up the stairs to get to the platform of the train. I would take the elevator or escalator to get to the platform. When I would walk past windows or mirrors, I would see my reflection on how fat that I gotten; watching my belly bounce when I walk. When I would sit down, my belly would rest on my lap; while I take up a half of a seat.
Yeah, those experiences of looking at yourself at the reflections you see feels like an out of body experience because you know that it is you in that reflection but you are just amazed at how you have let yourself go so you become both astounded and excited and you realize that you might just be fat for the rest of your life because it will be too much work to lose it.

We will all succumb to it because fatness is what sparks our dopamine so we aren't living in reality now. Some of us has eaten ourselves to the point that our hanging gut droops over or belts

There are different levels to that reality though. Blocking others out, separating yourself. Looking for that 2nd/3rd opinion to switch off to as your long lasting MD opted to get too personal or make things uncomfortable.

I totally concur. We have amazing powers to self delude ourselves and this is no different. We will scour the web to find obese positive doctors and will gorge down later to fortify why our obesity is who we are.
