I feel the same, I am naturally fit and love being fit so I don't like to go against my body so I completely understand this. I too am trying to understand these thoughts more and know how to balance it in life.
Being fit and being fat aren't necessarily mutually exclusive. So I've you're looking to gain weight you can still be fit, it just might take longer to see the results you want as your lifestyle naturally causes you to burn more calories. Obviously yes if you're into extreme weight gain you'll run into some obstacles, but it's not entirely unmanageable.
If you want you could try dipping your toes in and gain a small amount of weight to see if you like it and if you don't, it's not impossible to burn it off.

I've never been asked not to, but before my great grandparents passed two years ago I knew better than to sit at most of their dining room furniture. Most of the furniture in their house was from when they first got married in the 40's/50's and I swear people must've been built smaller back then because even two years ago my lean 170 lbs ass could hardly fit in them

For me I prefer women who are either very muscular or very overweight. Which is odd because those are very much on opposite ends of the spectrum and I have no idea why that's my preference.
For guys I'm attracted to I only really have one preference and that's guys that are muscular and have a bit of a dad bod too

Gone to a friend's house one time for Thanksgiving and the family brought out old chairs apparently it was a tradition of theirs to bring out theses old handcrafted chairs but when I went to sit at the table they gave me a regular chair bit wanting me to break one of thier special ones I felt embarrassed but can totally understand
Old furniture is just weird like that. A lot of my great grandparents furniture is absolutely tiny and even I feel like I'm going to break it and I'm only barely considered obese

Didn't know you could actually do this
It's just an easy way to do belly inflation without much set up. I've seen people with more advanced set ups but Im still experimenting. I just wasn't expecting it to have an effect on my appetite

Lets hope this stupid law is reversed.
My guy, it shouldn't be a hot take that women shouldn't be recorded or photographed and then uploaded to a fetish site without their explicit consent. That's a massive privacy concern and it's honestly terrifying that you don't realize that

Thought I had a great kindling of a relationship with another lovely individual or so I thought. I then sent of video of me speaking. Surprise IM TRANS. or it shouldn’t be considering it says I’m a trans woman on my profile. No response for 3 hours turns out I was BLOCKED. God Add another too good to be true heartache. I hate being trans it’s a curse.
People can just be the worst sometimes, and they can be especially weird when it comes to the trans community. You'll find someone meant for you eventually, not just someone who cares for the superficial parts of you, but the entire you. Don't let this one person drag down your entire self esteem

A friend suggested I should aim for 500 lbs since I'm currently 490 lbs, but I'm concerned about weight and health problems even at 490 lbs. I'm also considering a weight loss journey at my current weight. What are your thoughts
SumoSized:
That's a really personal question, and one that's hard to give a solid response to without knowing the full context. Have you experienced any health concerns or do any serious health problems run in your family that obesity could make worse? And do you think the joy of gaining weight is greater than those potential risks?
I'm not saying this to dissuade you, it's just important to listen to your body in these situations. If you decide to continue gaining weight you can try to mitigate potential risks like trying to stay relatively active and taking the more difficult route of eating healthier foods in large quantities rather than mostly junk food in order to gain weight.
TwistedBike:
I've been wanting to lose weight I've just not been sure if I should. As far for health concerns none as of yet luckily but my father's side of the family has had a history of asthma but I haven't inherited it.
SumoSized:
Okay so now I'm confused, is it just your friend who's pushing you to gain weight, or do you want to? Because if you're afraid of the health risks and want to lose weight, then by all means you should
TwistedBike:
It was my friend I'm just unsure between which one to do gain or lose weight
If you feel torn try writing a pros and cons list of gaining weight. Write down things you would enjoy if you gained weight and the cons that would come with it, like fear of health risks or decreased mobility for example. Then you compare the two and make the decision for yourself. You don't need your friend or anyone from this site telling you what to do. Just listen to your body and listen to yourself on what you want to do
