How long does it take to gain 12 lbs...?

Re-Gaining lost weight is certainly almost always faster. But I had a lover who would torment me with re-gains and with very rapid new gains. But -there was one consistent fact with her. She had yo-yo'd at a 25 to 30 pound rate starting at her early teens. So she could gain 3 pounds a day for over a week -even new pounds. Her metabolism was shot. So in at least one person I've known on an intiment level-the answer is 3 to 4 days.
I just remembered something that I haven't thought about in 25 years. I played in a band job on trombone and there were two brothers playing tenor sax. They were big guys-6 foot and high 200's if not over the 300 mark. During a break one of them said that they had gained 12 and 14 pounds over the 4 day Thanksgiving weekend. I don't know if it was re-gain or a new record for each. I didn't ask because they were guys. They were good tenor players though-that much I know.

Feeders or encouragers out there... do you prefer thin, chubby, or fat to start with?

I think years ago(before internet) I would have answered this question differently than now. Then I would have preferred to see someone skinny gain to a complete transformation into a full-fledged BBW. But my observations both in real life and from the internet have led to a change of heart. Being realistic I now think that average to slightly plump is the preffered starting point. The reason is that I have seen many average to plump women becaome BBW's.But a person who starts thin seems to be able to add quite a lot of weight initially-and then reach a plateau. My very favorite S31 model was Michaela. She started at a thin 5'7" and 127. When she left she was 260 and gorgeous. But as a young adult she was a curvy 155. So even though she appeared in photos to break my trend or more accurately-my theory. In reality she was slightly plump to start with.I'm sure there are exceptions -but they seem rare. So here's to the average to slightly plump women who grow into plush BBW's!smiley

Stories from how they got thin to fat.

Even though I knew almost all of that story-The way you just put it there was so much more wonderful. Your words and expression of thoughts are a big part of your tremendous appeal. And of course the visual part of the story is perfection. Thank you for writng that. It was superb-Like You!

Cruising is fattening

Uh... yeah!!! I just got back from a 2 week cruise and boy, I really packed it on!!!! Interestingly, the chef introduced himself to our group and one of my friends told him he was making me fat. He looked at my bulging belly and got the biggest grin across his face. From then on, my portions seemed to get mysteriously larger at dinner. LOL


Hi Plenty,
I'm enjoying your cruise photos as well. How far into your cruise did your friends tell that little tidbit to the chef? You must have had a marveloius time. Thanks for those terrific pics.Matt
