Anyone reached goal weight - couldn't stop?

AskDrFeeder:
I have no hard data, but it seems to me that the people most likely to go out of control are those who stuff to the point where they can't take a deep breath once a week or more

Morbidly A Beast:
I am confusion do you mean that in the literal sense or the figurative sense


Extreme feeder here. This is an actual thing people do. I've stuffed my feedees and playmates to this point many times. Mind you I prefer masochistic feedees to general gluttons. My partner loves it when I stuff him until he can hardly breathe and is pinned to the bed with how stuffed he is.

Not everyone stuffs to that point because they are masochists. Some are legitimately that greedy. Others have a more competitive mindset and want to push their capacity.

You can come back from this, but it's hard. You need the desire to stop as well as having a good support system.

Food intolerances and gaining

CustardCream:
Thank you again Munchies!

I will book in to see my doctor as soon as they can. Whilst it is wonderful to have the NHS, it can take ages to get appointments now!

That is why I've paid privately for the autism testing and the food intolerance test. The latter was a do it at home blood test, where I pricked my finger, filled a capillary rod and sent it back. As part of that process, I get a half hour call with a nutritionalist, and wanted to have some questions ready for them, hence making the post here.

Cow's Milk and Wheat scored 100/100 on their test chart.


Oh yeah. Avoid those at all costs.

I will say that once these allergens are completely out of your system (this can take a few weeks) you'll notice a big change in your skin, mood, and brain function.

Mourning others' weight loss

Manganeasymoney:
I don't know why but ever since I found out someone in the Community got wls I've been in a very real state of mourning. Going on 8 years since I found out and I still cry when I think about it which is basically all the time. For perspective I loved my mother as deeply as a son could but since she passed I have not been able to cry once in the 2 months since she left us but I absolutely weep several times a week when I think about the other. Also I'm autistic and one of my traits is that things have to make sense through logic and mathematics but a thin person intentionally gaining weight just to get the surgery makes zero sense. If I could just know the reasons for her decisions I feel like I could start to recover and feel human again and not have to pretend I give a shit when people talk to me and then have to say something that seems like an appropriate response because I can't interact with the world naturally anymore. Sorry if I'm rambling. This is a cry for help eight years in the making. I don't know what to do.

Maintaining vs gaining

Ligr77:
I was wondering if anyone who's at of close to their goal weight had any tips on how to keep relatively healthy while still maintaining their goals.

You see, I'm really close to my goal of 275, and I love the full feeling I get after stuffing my belly, but I still want to stay relatively healthy.

I'm really hoping someone has some advice, because I'm really comforted knowing I'm so close, but I really don't want to lose all of my progress.

Munchies:
I can offer advice, but it depends on your goals. Do you want to maintain your weight? Do you still want to gain? Do you want to stuff yourself from time to time?

Ligr77:
I'd say I'd like to maintain, but I'd also love to fit in the occasional stuffing session.

Munchies:
In this moment, what would you say are your struggles to achieving this?

Ligr77:
Well, the main problem is that I don't really get much exercise outside my current job, so i'm trying to figure out some kind of exercise routine that won't reverse my progress.

It doesn't help that I don't have a license, so that's limits my exercise options a bit.


You don't need to drive to the gym to get fit. You have a lot of options. Get a Fitbit, pick up a physical hobby, or start volunteering. You can even get yourself a home gym by getting some seats, resistance bands, and a yoga mat.

But, most importantly, have fun while you do it.

Drinking peanut butter with beer

Premier654321:
Hey, that’s awesome! Since the site doesn’t give any sort of notification, it took me a while to find out that anybody responded. Yeah it’s a pretty cool method and I haven’t done it since but setting them on top of maybe like a radiator or a hairdryer might warm them up to the right point. I was trying to avoid the stories. I’ve heard about somebody microwaving peanut butter and it becomes something totally dangerous.


For the love of God, don't do either of these things. The hair dry can accidentally melt the container the peanut butter is in. And the radiator is just asking for someone to burn themselves.

Just get a pot and heat up the peanut butter on low.

Ideal size?

IheartStories:
Hey everybody! I’m curious what y’all find to be the most attractive height & weight combination. Can answer what you find most attractive for yourself, on another person, or even both! I’ll start:

I’m roughly 5’6 and found myself to be most attractive around 230-240lbs.


I look most attractive no matter what.



As for someone else ... it depends. All bodies are different.

Appetite stimulants

Nyarlep:
I would be wary of taking any of the gen 1 antihistamines on a regular basis. There are both a bevy of known undesirable sideffects and some worrying studies into links to neural degenerative diseases and long term use of those kinds of meds. I doubt op is planning on taking it for years but do be careful.


I remember a few years ago, there were a bunch of women taking apetamin to gain weight. They were not feedists, mind you. They were mostly skinny women looking to gain some curves.

Most of them stopped due to a tank in quality of life.

Those first gen antihistimens are no joke. Sure, some of them are still used, but they are for short-term use under doctor supervision. For example, one of the potential side effects is low blood pressure.

Never mess with medication willy nilly. Even OTC meds need to be taken with caution.

Food intolerances and gaining

CustardCream:
Wonderful, thank you! I will have a go at that. Strangely we have some loaf tins here, but I've no idea why!

Not heard of goat butter so will look out for that too. I've not been a great one for cheese, but might explore the equivalents soon.

A friend I told about all of this has suggested that I keep a tiny bit of these items I shouldn't eat in my diet because if you do totally remove them, you will have a much worse reaction than I get now when you do accidentally eat something I'm intolerant of. Have you had a similar experience with your intolerances?


Don't listen to your friend.

So, a bit of background for me. I have a autoimmune disorder that causes a lot of food intolerances and allergies. This is what started my interest in biology. It's focused towards microbiology and immunology, so I know a lot more about this than I know about other aspects of biology. And you've seen how much I know about the other aspects.

There are levels to how your body reacts to certain food sensitivities and allergens. Some you can get away with eating occasionally - especially if they are cooked. Others should be avoided at all costs.

In terms of treatment, there are allegy shots you can take. Basically, you get a shot (usually weekly or biweekly) that has proteins of the things you have issues with. This is built up over time and can help decrese your sensitivites over time. However, it's not for everyone. Some people have complications as the doses increase and have to stop.

This leads back to your friend's suggestion. The proteins for the foods you have issues with will be in much higher quantities than what is in the allergy shot. If you keep eating something you know you have issues with, you are playing with fire. This is especially true during Spring and Fall when common allergens are in the air making you extra sensitive to what you eat.

What you need to do is talk to your doctor about what next steps are right for you. Failure to comply can lead to histamines building up in your body over time which can cause ... unexpected complications.
