Number of fat cells

Bigwideland:
I have been reading up on the development of fat cells. Most articles conclude that you can increase the number of fat cells to about 23 or 24 but most in adolescents year's. These tend to be cells under the skin. These can increase is size without much metabolic risk.

Once you are over 25 your fat cell counts are mainly unchanged. So you can gain till you Max out your cell capacity with low metabolic issues. After that your increase in weight is in your organs like your liver ect. This can lead to diabetes and so on.

So that explains to some degree how some people get to huge size as adults they developed more cells as teenagers.

Do we have any expert's that can input on this.

And how, if true can you know you maxed out your fat cells capacity?


So, fat cells can increase until puberty. Once you are done with that, your fat cell count stabilizes. This doesn't mean they stay with you forever. Fat cells die, but your body replenishes them.

Fat cells have a max capacity, but that looks different in different people. Some have a low capacity. Others have a higher capacity. Either way, when that happens, you experience lipotoxicity. Your fat cells have no more room, so your body will store it in other areas like your muscles and organs.

This will make you very sick. Your body will start breaking down and it's all downhill from here.

I remember a video a male feedee posted many years ago. He was quite large and wanted to be 700 lbs. The video was a celebration of his gains and his plans for the future. He looks a little yellow and his breathing is weird. The comments tell a very sad follow up.

He died not long after. The sumptoms sound very similar to lipotoxicity. He reached his hard limit and decided to go past it. If I can find the video, I'll post it later.

Reasons to not feel guilty for loving fat women, oe fat men, or whatever fat adult ?

Technoman:
Reasons to NOT feel guilty for loving fat women, or fat men, or whatever fat adult ?

I have personally experienced guilt for loving fat women.
I have seen a few threads with someone mentioning feeling guilty.

Maybe a member feels guilty right now. Or maybe a guest visiting this site feels guilty right now.

I would like to reasons to NOT feel guilty.


Honestly, this is such a BS thing. That's a person at the end of the day.

If you see them as a person and not as a sexy object, you have no reason to feel guilty. What you're describing is fatphobia. You have some soul searching to do hun.

Do you assume your kinks and fetish in real life.

FAMGM:
I’ll never discuss my sexual interests with a non-feedist.

I don’t have the patience to lay it all out knowing that they’ll not understand it anyway.


I get it. But at the same time, it can be presumptuous to think they wouldn't understand. After all, there are feedist on here that got into feedism because a partner introduced them to it.

It depends on the person.

Do you have kinks that are unrelated to weight, food, or bdsm ?

Technoman:
Do you have kinks that are completely unrelated to weight, food, or BDSM ?

For me personally, I find these beautiful and sexy on women: acne, acne scars, oily skin, large pores, textured skin, forehead wrinkles, crowsfeet, freckles, sweat, certain earrings, certain necklaces, sneezing, sniffling, nose blowing etc.


Interesting assortment.

Yeah, I have several. I touch on several in my stories, actually.

Lower leg skin issues

Bigwideland:
Hi,

I have lower leg skin rashes lately, have cortisol cream from doctor. It most likely mild Stasis Dermatitis. Do others have this and how do you manage it.

BWL.

Letters And Numbers:
This sounds weird, but after you put whatever cream on your doctor recommends, even if it's just lotion, wrap your legs in saran wrap and then put an ace bandage over it. It keeps the medication on your skin instead of having it rub off onto your clothing and takes care of stuff like that 10x as quickly. It's a little gross, ngl, but it works.


This isn't weird at all. This is actually a common medical practice.

Feederism outlets

Natatat:
It depends on your relationship with feederism. For me mine doesn’t typically extend into real life much. Yes i am excited by tales of weight gain. Yes I am excited by muffintops. Yes the opportunity to stuff someone if that was what they wanted or I don’t know it is so oddly specific for me of a headspace for it that feederism for me simply exists as masturbatory material. It’s split from my relationships and what I want from a partner. My boyfriend knows about it. He is perfectly willing to read stories to me or make some up to get me excited if I want or need that. But I do not want him to gain nor do I want to feed him. Also I would be a bit annoyed if he got fat. Like if he did it on purpose. I am very attracted to him in every way. He’s super fit and has abs and all that. Hes an amazing person and all the things I want. So for me I write about feederism. I write stories. I recount memories, fantasies, dreams, people, random annecdotes, I watch porn, i read it, I get off to it. I am more comfortable with that. I told him that one wrong word, or my mindset changing during him trying to tell me a story about it, would make me shut down. It would leave me embarrassed and feeling guilty for asking him to participate in something he isn’t into. And yeah he said that there is no reason to feel that way. He said he would be happy and turned on cause of my enjoyment. Anyway for me it exists as a separate part of my sexuality. And I am way more comfortable with that. I have been a feeder before and it made me wildly uncomfortable and it felt like someone had violated my privacy. So yeah it’s whatever works for you. I made this choice on my own because of my relationship with this fetish. Human sexuality is interesting like that.


That's really interesting about having your partner read you erotica. I've never considered that before.

For me, I read erotica by myself. It's an intimate moment that's almost meditative in a way as I explore my most vulnerable parts for the sake of pleasure. I feel like involving your partner can be a beautiful expression trust and care.

I'm not sure if it's something I'd do with my partner, but who knows? I could whip it out if things start getting stale. Could be fun.

Sounds like you have edema.

In addition to the steroid cream, keep the skin hydrated. Petroleum jelly does wonders for that. Also get some compression stockings. Elevate your legs when laying down. Take sitting breaks if you are going to sit for a long time.

How much do you care about your own health ?

ILuvChubbyChix:
You're exactly right.

A few years ago, I remember hearing about a horrifying, relevant situation, which I believe took place around Cleveland, OH.

I would guess some users might get a thrill out of this story, but that is absolutely not the intent of it. If anything, a cautionary tale.

So, there was this woman,who weighed something like 650, 700+ lbs. She really needed an MRI scan. But.. problem!

None of the machines at the hospital were large enough to accommodate her.

The Cleveland Zoo had an MRI machine in the veterinarian's office that would be big enough. But, it wasn't licensed and certified for use on humans, and maybe this really shows ignorance, but I'm pretty sure that licensing process can't be completed in 1 day or a few hours as a rush job, nor do I know what's involved in the licensing process.

I have no idea what the outcome of that was, but even without knowing this, this is already a severe complication and a scary situation.

I wish I could find this chart again, but 600+ lbs does solidly place you well above 0.5% on the distribution curve (this means 99.5% of individuals weigh less/have a lower BMI than you do).

Of course, it's all about girth (and the girth of the machine) and no, I have no idea what her girth was at the widest point.

However, I wouldn't be surprised if the hospital administrators simply didn't anticipate this situation would ever arise. I don't know how old the hospital is, when the MRI machine was procured, or what was going through the minds of the administrators, or what doctors said while being consulted, prior to procurement.

BigBallBellyGirl:
This is the experience I'm living right now, in the wake of a medical emergency last week. While much of the medical equipment is built to accommodate my weight in pounds, my girth presented one issue after another (circumference at the widest part of midsection was around 110 inches). Even the height of the OR table (or rather the inability to lower it beyond a certain point) was an issue.

I'll just say, being too big to get the care you need quickly in an emergency isn't fun and it isn't a thrill. It's pretty scary when it happens.


Yeah, it's wild. Firstly, I'm glad you were able to get the care you need.

Secondly, at least in America, the more difficult it is to treat you, the more expensive it is. Some of it might not be covered by your insurance. Others are but you have to jump through hoops to get it covered.

So if you are hellbent on getting too fat for medical care, you have to make sure your money is right. I know some feedists are into health issues. So that's you, don't bankrupt yourself or your loved ones. I've seen posts on here from feeders boasting about how they left their too fat feedee in a nursing home or completely abandoned them because the care was too much.

Be safe on these streets because these streets ain't safe.

Fattening boyfriend

Angy523:
New updates

1. He left for two weeks with work and didn't have much food there so he lost some weight. Anyway, before this he wanted to lose some weight, but now when I told him he lost some, he told me that he didn't...and when he checked the scale and saw I was right, he told me he'll gain all the weight back

2. When he cams back, his annoying mother told him "you didn't lost much weight there, I expected more" and his answe was "I didn't need to lose any". I was amazed, it's the first time he acts like he doesn't want lose weight at all.

3. We went to shopping, looking for a new suit for the next month when we'll go to a wedding. But every time I found something which was his size, but kinda tight...well, not tight...I mean it was exactly his size, not even an inch loose, he was asking me to bring him the next size because, let me quote "What happens when I gain weight?". I just loved it.


Happy for y'all

Finding real people

WeirdoOnArt:
You’re not alone pal. I really wish I can find the right girl to care for and feed on this website.

Munchies:
Sir, you've been here for 4 days. And your profile is even worse than OP's.

You call yourself a "loser nerd." I know you meant that to be funny, but women see that as a red flag. We see it as you being an emotionally insecure little man-baby who will make that other people's problem.

I know dating is hard out here on these streets, but accounts that aren't even a week old with barely any site interaction and shitty profiles have no legs to stand on.

WeirdoOnArt:
I’m sorry


This is not something to apologize for. This is something that you internalize the feedback and do better.
