I would think estrogen would accelerate weight gain as well. I was reading about phytoestrogens in soy and flax seed and there seems to be some possible effect on weight and breast growth from high consumption of those substances. They are certainly not as effective as the isolated hormones used for injections, but I once read a medical journal article about a patient who mass consumed soy milk and triggered a rapid onset of gynocamastia.
Got a link to that case? I'd love to grow big breasts, but not by using hormones directly.
There ought to be some soy derivative to use instead of soy milk (yuck).

Milk is pretty good. I've found decent results from half a gallon of chocolate milk a day on top of whatever else I eat.

Aren't both types of diabetes curable with adult stem cell therapy now?

Can someone recommend a good office chair that'll support a lot of weight? I'm 320-ish pounds now and hope to be around 450-550+ pounds in a few years. My current chair has an unknown capacity and is on its way out.

You know you're fat when you have to adjust your belly when you sit down.

Maybe ask her if she has any like-minded friends to whom she can introduce you?

15 lbs up and no exercise since September, she already knows you are into gaining. Be honest and have fun together. On the healthy side keep eating as you like but keep yourself strong with some exercise. It will be better for the 2 of you.

So you think she�s kind of on to me?
I recently got a desk job so I�ve blammed the weight gain in that lol
Something that has worked for me somewhat is to wear some article of clothing that's too small, grip your bulges of fat, and ask "Honey, does this make me look fat?".
I've been gaining off and on since I met my girlfriend, now fiance, She knows I want to grow a lot fatter but is not keen on feeding me. Being open about how fat I am helps with reinforcing our relationship. She's fat too, which helps.

Prepare alfredo sauce ahead of time in an amount for several meals. It's equal volumes of butter, cream, and shredded parmesan and/or romano cheese.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat and slowly stir in the cream. Then add cheese in pinches stirring continuously until it's all melted together evenly. This will keep in the fridge for about a week.
Boil pasta, drain, and add a scoop of alfredo sauce. Return to heat briefly to compensate for the cold sauce. Add whatever bits of chicken and quickly sauteed veggies.

Coin142001:
I've done a lot of reading about this and apparently 30% of everyone they sampled in the research had antibodies to the virus in their blood. If the sample is good enough you can extrapolate to say 30% of obesity I caused by the virus.
And it says the weight is permanent. As in you don't just drop it and go back after getting better. But getting fat is semi permanent. Fat makes your body want to stay fat through hormonal changes and if your fat long enough your resistant to going back worsens. And even if you get thin or normal again it takes less overeating than it originally did to gain the weight back.
So that makes sense. I can't find anything on how the virus transmits. Is it oral? Or do you inhale it?
All I could find is that family of viruses is responsible for various upper respiratory and gastrointestinal sicknesses. Can't find much specific on that one virus except that it causes weight gain. And it appears to cause your prefatcell stemcells to differentiate into adipose tissue. So it works by increasing your fat cell count.
The virus is of a class that causes symptoms like cold or flu PLUS making you fat. Getting a hold of any specific strain of adenovirus would be tough.
