Highway:
I consider myself to be fat but not huge and I find it hard to bend down and pick up a quarter, so yes, in public, I would think twice about picking up a quarter.
What's your BMI if I may ask?

I saw a fat woman drop a quarter one time. She knew she'd dropped it but I guess she was too fat to pick it up gracefully if at all. I thought of picking it up for her, but that might've embarrassed her.
Anyway, it's an interesting metric, isn't it? How many here are too fat to pick up a quarter? How many might be able to pick up a quarter but would rather not try for fear of falling or looking awkward?

Appetite bumps are where someone is gaining gradually and then one day wakes up with a bigger appetite and starts eating more than ever.
Every experience this? How much more could you eat after the bump happened? Was there anything specific that triggered it or did it just happen when you got to a certain weight?

For those of you who have gone from thin to fat and have been nagged about your weight and/or eating habits: Is there a point where people give up, accept that you're fat and quit nagging? How much did you have to gain to hit that point?

Some have told me they were helped by my article "Deciding to Get Fat":

Feabie is a much better integrated site. ff is more a bunch of sub-sites awkwardly pasted together.
Best example is Feabie's near-line chat, which segues organically between messaging and on-line chat. On ff it's quite a few clicks and page transitions to go from one to the other.
For me, ff is about the forum, which Feabie doesn't even have. Feabie is more about the main feed, which ff doesn't have. The main feed does have a lot of whiners and creeps...but you can minimize that by blocking people you're not interested in and by setting the filter, which is very powerful.
ff also has chat rooms, which Feabie doesn't, but I'm not a big fan of chat rooms.
Feabie is better for connecting with individuals--flip side of that is it's easier for individuals you might not care for to connect with you.
ff, because of its forum, is better for general discussions about feedism and related issues.
There is probably more SJW-slanted stuff on Feabie, but no more than, say, facebook, and most of it isn't over the top. (For the record, I'm all for social justice but the extremists do alarm me sometimes.) And I'd rather see SJWs than say, alt-right crap! I generally ignore it.
Feabie also has a great search facility, which, as a numbers guy I really like, since it tells you how many people it finds. If you're curious about how many women over 30 are feedees compared to average-weight gay men under 40 (or whatever!) you can do it really easily.
I suggest you cherry-pick and use whatever you like about each site and ignore the rest. That's what I do anyway!
I admit that as an old straight white guy my experience on both sites is probably a lot different than, say, an attractive young woman. People don't usually bother harassing me! But we all have our crosses to bear.

I guess I'm assuming some sense of responsibility on the part of the feedee. If they want to get too fat to take care of themself and that's impractical obviously it's a bad idea to help them get as fat as they want.

Nok:
irl or fantasy?
I was thinking real but fantasy is cool too.

The primary rule would have to be you help your feedee get as fat as they want, even if it's more than was initially planned.
What else?
