I've actually become unable to reach my own belly button with the last 40 or 50 pounds I've gained. I use a sponge on a stick to wash it, and a backscratcher if the front of my belly itches. My partner has to help me put lotion on.
Nofbar:
I've wondered what it would take for that to happen.
BigBallBellyGirl:
A lot of belly fat and short, puffy arms.
BigFox:
So I guess the question is. Did you giggle and pat your belly when you realized. Or was it an “Oh my!” Moment?
It was weird... By the time I realized it, My fingers were a good three or four inches from being able to reach it. I was quite surprised!

Stretching your belly out, thinking you'll be able to cut back anytime you want to, only to realize you're now eating thousands of calories daily just to feel minimally satisfied.

We're going the van route, because I can no longer move enough in my Camry to be safe. At some point, I also need a lift for my scooter. I didn't see myself in a minivan before the age of 30, but they're so nice inside, and I'll be able to get in and out easily as well.

Did you say carrots and peanut butter.. like you dip your carrots in peanut butter? Or did you mean separately? 🤔
Yup. I dip baby carrots in PB. I know... not everyone's cup of tea. Don't judge, LOL. 😊😊😊

Have plenty of snacks of all kinds available and within reach. Mine include healthy snacks too. Sunday, between meals, I snacked on corn chips and ranch dip, broccoli and hummus, carrots and peanut butter, yogurt, nuts, oreos, strawberries, ice cream, cheese, crackers, slices of pepperoni, donuts, and celery with pimiento cheese. I was able to snack essentially non-stop because I had variety.

I have a huge tummy, and I have this issue year-round. Caldesene works too!

Absolutely. One of the first private chats I've had on here was someone basically saying "hi" and then RPing feeding me, then asking if I was "submissive." When I said I wasn't interested in any of that, they asked me why I was even here and then stopped talking (lmao)
Literally in my profile I say I'm married and I'm here for advice and stories. If that's too hard to read that much in someone's profile, don't DM them.
Honestly, I get really creepy, invasive questions about my body enough. I probably won't be doing DMs from randos anymore which is too bad since I *just* got here. Kind of not the best culture tbh
Precisely. I'm sorry you didn't have a welcoming experience, and those who have said the culture in this community has shifted-- are right. I can tell you, despite the negatives, there truly are some good people here who respect others. I would also say this is the least toxic of the major sites. If you can look past some of the unpleasant interactions, I hope you'll find the friendship, conversations, advice, and the creative outlook you are looking for.
