It's all in the title...

Porphyry:
i don't follow sports, but i get the point. thanks, and sorry for the stupid question

Porphyry:
you could also try filling up as much as you can right before you go to bed. your body isn't burning calories while you sleep, so most of that would probably get stored as fat. if you wake up in the middle of the night, do it again :o

Update:

A few days ago, we talked about it, and she actually wanted to talk about too

As it turns out, she noticed the same thing I did, and we came to an understanding. She decided on a small challenge instead, she'll try to 'woo' me and apparently, in exchange, I can try to *convince her to gain a little. I'm not going to complain honestly, she seems to be having fun, at least for now

I took me a few days, and several more questions to process it, but I guess she's ok with it, at least that's what she reassured me several times

On a related note, does anyone know how to introduce someone to this without throwing them into the **deep end? Thanks

*She noticed how similar this was to a different event we went through, and thinks she was more insensitive than me ***from a few months ago, so yeah

**I would consider this site a bit more than the shallow end, so I don't think this should be the first thing

***Just look at my other post in general, 'I need some advice i guess'

Munchies:
I'm glad you guys came to an understanding.

I would say keep the kink offline for now. Spoil her with food and treats. Maybe mix in some physical intimacy like cuddling on the couch while you give her decadent treats. If you know how to cook, cook her favorites. Maybe introduce her to new foods as well.

Feedist can be very romantic and fluffy if you let it.

Casually Walking:
Thanks for the tip, although she has almost no appetite. She usually eats off the kid's menu, so I'll see what happens

Weetabix:
I assume you're a mod. I assume I've been warned you will ban me. I'll shut up voluntarily because if I don't I will be shut up involuntarily. thanks for nothing.

Munchies:
I'm not against the idea of kids being on weightloss medication.

HOWEVER

It should only be used if the child's obesity is causing serious health complications and nothing else is working.

Weetabix:
Yeah, you know they will say it's a health thing regardless. Where would the line be drawn? They made children have the jab even when the gov appointed advisers said it offered no benefit to the children and even a slight risk. They simply found some other advisers who said it would benefit their education to get jabbed.

It won't be a battle on the basis of evidence and reason, it will be on mental health v physical health.

What a way to end a year to a bigger and better 2023 she could help to make you eat and get bigger for 2023

I recently started having issues with what I’m seeing in the mirror. Over the past five years I’ve put on about 60lbs and I’m to the point where my clothes can’t hide my gain any longer. Or maybe a better statement is that my clothing style no longer matches my physique? My closet is full of fitted shirts and slim fit button downs because I’ve never been a fan of shapeless shirts that hang off your body. Now I’m struggling to come to terms with shirts clinging to my bloated love handles, budding moobs, and growing gut.

I suppose it’s easy to chalk this newfound insecurity with the way clothes look on me as commonplace on my journey to obesity. But I’ve had over a decade to learn how to cultivate my style as a 200lb man and I’m unsure how to adapt with my ever changing figure at 260+.

I guess I’m asking for recommendations for plus size male fashion? Does that exist? Lol

Sorry if I ramble, I’m still trying to flesh out and organize my thoughts on this issue. I certainly appreciate any advice I receive. Thanks for reading.

Just another opportunity to intervene medically and have the state foot the bill.

The battle between the body acceptance people and those who say it should be altered will be epic.

What if Obese becomes and identity, a protected characteristic. They say that deaf people are very proud of their deaf identity having learned sign language and ways of living well as a deaf person. I read a New Scientist article about this. The last thing they want is someone curing them of their identity.

Once someone has incorporated corpulence into their person then it's a direct attack on them to offer to resolve that problem.

Heck it's a direct attack on them if they're still struggling with the fact that they are fat and the mixed messages they are getting about it.
