I think a lot of 20-somethings these days are feeling lonely, you're definitely not alone there. Ironically with the advent of social media, it feels like socializing is harder than ever. Like others have said, even a single outing a week can go a long way in fighting that feeling.

I'm lucky to have a partner but even then if I didn't have my bi-weekly D&D sessions to look forward to I'd still feel pretty dang lonely.

I get these cream cheese muffins from the grocery store bakery, they're about 500 calories each and they're so good I eat like 3 throughout the day. Also as others have said, peanuts are amazing, they're easy to eat and pretty fattening.

Congrats! That's a big and often times difficult step. Hope you have fun living for yourself! It's the best way to live imo

Mhm, a splash here and there goes a long way over time, and it's much more sustainable. Gaining's not a sprint, it's a marathon (that doesn't involve any running, thank goodness).

Lots of things have changed! Especially while gaining I'm so aware of how everything is bigger; my thighs rub together more, my arms are squishier, there's always a belly in front of me and I can always feel it.

Bending over, getting out of bed, little tasks like that don't become difficult, per se, but they do take a bit of effort, when they were effortless while I was skinny.

Gonna second cooking with heavy cream, so many delicious things you can make with it! Fettucine alfredo is a personal favorite, my gf adds some to scrambled eggs and it makes their texture really fluffy. If you drink coffee you can also replace half and half/milk with heavy cream.

Personally, I'd never drink it straight up, but it works for some people. I'd rather enjoy myself on the way to getting huge than force it.

I try to not even let myself get hungry, like tons of snacks in between meals. It's a difficult adjustment at first, eating big meals when you're not really hungry, but eventually your body/brain adjusts and you start getting "hungry" as in just craving more food even though you already have plenty in you already.

To be honest 4k is my goal for daily intake and a lot of days I struggle to even fit that much in, I can't even fathom what a 12k day looks like. I hope one day I can.

Could you share how you fit those many calories in a day? Is it primarily big meals? Or snacking? Either way, very inspiring!

I play pretty regularly (2-3 nights a week) on Faerie! Are you excited for Dawntrail?

I spent the better part of my teen years and early 20's trying my hardest to resist this fetish, never went away for me.

Now I'm glad it didn't because all things considered it's a pretty chill kink to have as far as kinks go. You get to eat whatever you want and not feel guilty, everyone should be jealous
