Frankly, my wife getting fatter and lazier forces me to be more fit because she does less of the chores every month. Anything that involves stairs of lots of activity has been handed off to me.

Crockpot weather is almost here!

Soups, dips and anything that calls for multiple sticks of butter and cheese.

I for sure am! I can't wait for my corporate holiday party to see my wife's gain and see her pig out in front of them! I'm hoping for another good 30-40lbs before the end of the year. Tis the season for more pants.

A neighbor of mine growing up started smoking in his mid-30's and lost a good 75lbs over the next 6 months.

If there's a night my wife says she's "not really hungry", I'll hand her the vaporizer when she's watching Netflix. A few puffs later and she wants enough takeout Chinese for 3 people LOL.

Yeah, as mentioned, some barely get any facial change even when at 300lbs. Those are by far your rare genetic gems that usually are the ones that become big amongst the FA community and/or model for Lane Bryant/Torrid.

Most people get some type of puffiness in their face very early on and I feel that's always the time the gain cannot be obscured. Some get it purely from all the new salty foods that causes them to bloat badly – even though they're technically not even that fat yet.

Every major college is surrounded by countless late night greasy restaurants & bars. Nothing piles on the Freshman 50 faster than pounding beers or sugary alcoholic drinks, pigging out and immediately going to sleep.

It becomes unavoidable when it's effecting your face IMO, particularly when you start losing your chin line, gaining a double chin or losing your cheekbones as your cheeks puff out.

Some people have that develop after 15-20lbs. But others gain 100lbs and never get a big double chin; all genetics.

It's called being a chubby chaser and 'yes' you will find one.

Has nothing to do with fiber - in fact most buffet style foods have barely any fiber. It's all of the salt in the dressing, cheeses, etc. Your weight change is due to water weight. The amount of sodium you're consuming at the buffet is super high. And salt's most pronounced side effect is water retention.

24-36 hrs after the buffet your body sheds all of the water weight.
