Fast gain

FluffyBhm:
I want some new strech marks. Does anyone of u knows a way to gain as fast as posible or anything that make you feel more Appetit and let you eat mor food.

Glitter Jelly:
Yeah... Do like me and wake up at least once every night to eat peanut butter right out of the jar... I've involuntarily gained 20 lbs since October (15 lbs since March). None of my XS-S clothes fit anymore, I have to buy size M and sometimes L. I'm freaking out TBH...


This is your friendly reminder that a size M or L does not make you a failure.

Back for being overweight...

Glitter Jelly:
It's official, I'm fat again...

Not fat as in "I feel fat today", fat as in medically overweight (BMI > 25).

I was a chubby kid and as an adult I used to be much heavier (180+ lbs) but after loosing a lot of weight about 10 years ago I was proud that I had managed to keep most of it off.

For the last few years, my weight was pretty stable, fluctuating between 115-120 lbs. Last October, I was 121 lbs.

In March, after noticing some of my clothes (non-stretch dresses and jeans particularly) were getting noticeably tighter, I decided to step on the scale and cried when I saw I was 125 lbs.

I started being more sell conscious and adopted a more restrictive diet, which was easy as I had been prescribed a stimulant ADHD medication in September.

Then I started waking up at night to eat, sometimes multiple times.

Some nights it would be only a fruit and some cheese, but other nights I would eat a large slice of banana bread, spoonfuls of nut butter right from the jar, half a brick of cheese, handfuls of candy, chocolate...

It wasn't long before most of my XS-S wardrobe either didn't fit or was uncomfortably tight to the point I felt embarrassed to wear them in public.

Reluctantly, I weighted myself again in August and had a huge meltdown when I saw I was 139 lbs and had gained 15 lbs in only 5 months!

My depression has gotten really bad because I'm terrified my weight is going to climb faster and faster until I'm as fat or fatter than I used to be. Maybe this time I'll cross the line into morbid obesity.

I just bought a keyed lock for my fridge and replaced all the knobs on my kitchen cabinet for handles so I can lock them with wire locks. I'm going to keep the keys in a timed lock box with no override.

I'm hoping this will help me lose some of the extra weight or at least stop or slow down the weight gain... I'm not delusion, however, so I already started selling all my XS clothes because it's very unlikely I'll ever be that thin again as my metabolic is ruined from years of dieting.

None of this is going to help me when I sleep at my boyfriend's place (more often than not), as he doesn't want to lock his cabinets and fridge.

I suspect he likes my new curves but I sure don't. I don't recognize my body when I look in the mirror and feel very disconnected from it.

I've been on sick leave since May so my coworkers will undoubtedly notice my fuller figure even if I try to hide my fat under loose clothing.

I dread their comments, especially from those who used to praise me for / envy my formerly thin body. I used to wear pretty dresses everyday and now none of these fit me anymore.

Can anyone relate? Any advice / kind words will be appreciated.

ETA:

I know how crazy this sounds coming from someone who identifies as a FA. Yet, while I find beauty in bodies of all shapes and sizes, I struggle to see it in myself. Maybe this is PTSD from the relentless bullying / body shaming I suffered as a child?


Hello fellow human with body dysmorphia. You are not weird or bad for feeling how you are feeling. You are also not a failure for gaining either.

To be very clear, I am not telling you that you need to get over your emotions and embrace the fat life. I am also not saying you need to hunker down and lose everything you gained. But you are valid no matter your shape.

Are you seeing a therapist about this?

Question for vagina owners

MickRidem:
Thank you all for your help. I let her read these. She's been wearing men's boxer briefs, the sport kind that are moisture wicking but not cotton. (But they have a phone pocket! LOL!) She's been trying to go for more walks after dinner and it has been HOT out. She's going to try switching underwear and taking all y'all's advice. She is in touch with her doctor, who is ready to set her up with an OBGYN if things don't improve soon.

Much appreciated!! πŸ™πŸ€Ÿ


Good luck to her πŸ€œπŸΏπŸ€›πŸ»

Ordering nurtagain and testing

Reddoughpiggy:
On the fifth day quite sluggish and stomach a little upset. Lots of bloating, may suggest taking a digestive add.


Stuff like this is why I don't recommend using this stuff unless you really need it. And even then only for short-term use.

I remember when slim thick was all the rage, there were scores of women filming their weight gain journeys. A lot of them got their hands on various weight gain syrups.

Never lasted long or ended well due to all of the issues you are running into and then some. It's best to leave that shit to the medically underweight.

Tag spam in stories

Kryslin:
Is there a place to report tag spam in the story archive? About 2/3rds of the stories under Clothes padding are improperly tagged by their authors. Definitely in the free stories, I don't have the spare cash to check the premium stories.

While it may be a way to get extra readership, it's also deceptive.

Thank you.


I am once again pleading to have an exclude feature. It will cut down on stuff like this

Question for vagina owners

MickRidem:
I have a female friend who is too embarrassed to ask herself, so on her behalf I'll paraphrase her question:

"I hit my highest weight and wanted to bring it down a little. I started keto this summer. I've been finding my crotch having more burning sensations. I talked to my doctor and it's not a yeast infection. I did some research and I'm wondering if it's rubbing from being heavier and more sweat down there, or if the keto diet is changing my vaginal PH balance. Or both? Using Penaten to help, but this is awful. Does anyone else experience this?"

Any experience you might have had would be appreciated.

Snivvels:
My Mrs did loads of keto and never had any PH balance issues. The keto PH things is caused when you get a LOT of ketones in your blood and your PH goes way off - IIRC it's a life threatening thing, but you won't [/should't] get it from bog standard ketosis.


I think you're right that it's neither of those things. A change in her PH would lead to a UTI. Seeing as her crotch burns but there's no mention of it burning when she pees, I doubt it's that.

And seeing as she doesn't a yeast infection, I doubt it's her ketones. If her ketons are high enough to cause a burning sensation, then she'd have a yeast infection.

That said, Mick, has she talked to a OB/GYN or a dermatologist at all?

Stuffing vs inflating

Arame:
Feedies, what feels better? Being stuffed or being inflated?

Feeders, which belly feels better? A Stuffed belly or an inflated belly?


As a gainer turned feeder, it's stuffed bellies all the way.

When you stuff yourself, you eat a lot of food, maybe take a nap, and enjoy the fullness. You digest as normal and move on.

Meanwhile inflation doesn't last as long, deflating sucks, and sometimes you are burping and farting for longer than you thought if you get trapped gas.

As a feeder, stuffed bellies are amazing all the way. There's a heft to them that stuffed bellies lack. You can enjoy it for longer, and you can enjoy how it makes your feedee fatter.

Sounds like she might have a wicked case of chub rub. I have thick thighs so I deal with this too.

It's kinda like rug burn, but it's skin on skin contact. It's even worse if you sweat because that just ups the friction.

Using penaten cream for now is a good idea. It will give the skin a chance to heal.

To reduce her risk of this happening again, she needs to keep that area clean and dry. Wear cotton underwear and moisture wicking garments when possible. Stay away from tight pants. There are also creams, powders, sticks, and more that she can look into as well.

Personally, I am a fan of bike shorts, loose pants, and billowy dresses.

Explaining why im putting weight on to my loved ones.

Ditzy:
What is a Lil Nas X ?
A person, place or thing?


I mentioned very clearly in my post that Lil Nas X is a person, Ditzy. He's a black man who happens to be gay if you want to be more specific.

Please do not ask that question when someone brings up a marginalized person that you are not familiar with. It's extremely rude and unflattering. It's okay to ask who they are, but never what.

Explaining why im putting weight on to my loved ones.

Ditzy:
My question is :
Why do you think you "owe" them an explanation?
Its really none of their business isn't it?
You wouldn't go around calling attention if one of them put on weight would you?

Seems these days people feel the need to "come out" about almost anything.
Are they searching for acceptance or something else?
I never understood that mind set I just did what I felt I needed to do for my reasons not someone else.
What I do is my business not friends or family.
If its a spouse then I can see it being a thing that needs to be talked about between the two.

I saw a lot of that when I worked part time at an LGBT center but never got a firm answer from any of the people.


I wouldn't compare the two tbh. The stakes are different. Besides, people's reasons for coming out are deeply personal, so there's no one answer.

Some people come out for acceptance or because they are tired of keeping parts of themselves hidden away. I've seen people come out to denounce their previous communities and show solidarity to others.

Some people come out because they didn't have a choice. I remember when Lil Nas X dropped Old Town Road, he was still in the closet. Then a bunch of people found some ancient tweets and started a campaign to destroy him for funsies. At that point, he had no choice but to come out.

Now compare this to feedism. You can be fat for any reason. You can't really do that with being gay or trans for example. Also, being LGBTQIA+ isn't a sexual practice. Heck, there are sex repulsed ace people that do not want to partake in sex or kink.

It's an apples and oranges kind of thing.
