When it comes to weight gain, I’m not sure that I have natural ‘brakes’ that would make me ever want to stop it for myself or a partner.

That is, it is not like there is some size that seems too big, some activity level below which things would not be appealing, etc. In some ways, in fact, the more crazy, the more desirable it seems—so long as the people involved keep trying to live as full a life as possible and love what they are doing. (happiness is hot!).

Given that extremes are not practical in real life, and given that even way too much would never fully be ‘enough,’ I decided that the I had to work on accepting as little as possible (as little weight on me as I could stand, as few stuffings as I can accept, as little gain as I can manage, as little encouragement of my wife as I can manage, etc). Because I’ll always want more, no matter how much I have, and things are just easier with less.

BUT, if the situation supported extremes better (a partner who loved it just as much, good health, a career that would not be overly impacted or else being independently wealthy, etc)....wow.

Imagining sitting down to plan a fat life together, and making it happen in a big way is pretty mind blowing. Like starting where we are, but planning on where we will live when we need parking for his and hers scooters and the van that can carry them, eventually “hugging” when our bellies are so large that we can only reach to squeeze the sides of each other’s bellies, just bringing our extreme size into consideration of every part of life, and finding ways to have a full and interesting life when waddling a hundred feet is a major feat of endurance.

Yah, wow, thoughts losing focus now....

Thanks for sharing, that is cute!

Just noticed this thread....

I'm old enough that I first played AD&D before the Dungeon Master's Guide came out. We moved on from D&D to a slew of other games, but while I'm still friends with much of that group, we haven't played any RPG in a couple of decades. I do get together with one of them most weeks to play M:tG, however.

For my role playing fix currently I do some on-line playing, and I run a game for my son (both using the HeroQuest RPG rules, set in the fantasy world of Glorantha which was first explored using the RuneQuest rules)

Yep, zero G gives all sorts of problems, and even low gravity probably creates problems....but just maybe the issues with living in low g would be reduced if you were still carrying a substantial weight? Maybe the only healthy way to live on the Moon would be as a fatty? (I like to imagine so, anyway)

You could also, of course, spin a large ring out in space to use centrifugal force to simulate gravity. If you actually had a number of concentric rings, the inner ones would have lower gravity, so perhaps as you kept getting fatter you could keep moving to lower gravity? (I have a bunch of un-written stories based on that one)

And personally, assuming there was not strong social rejection of it, I think that on the moon I'd like to about double my mass...call it getting to 200kg, which would weigh 440 pounds on earth, but under 75 pounds on the moon I think that for me, bigger than that and I'd get frustrated with the restrictions that the padding from the fat would cause....but who knows?

ps. and yes, I was rather assuming a space elevator or other method of vastly reducing the cost of moving things to space, I don't think any sort of colony would be viable without one.

Yah, if I cut loose for a while, like over Christmas Holidays, it takes me weeks to get my appetite back under control....and it is astounding and shocking how much I want to eat when I've been indulging for a few days.

You get randomly picked to go join a new colony on the moon. Mass is the same on the moon as on earth, in other words if you are on wheels (a skateboard, bike, wheelchair, etc.), it takes as much effort to get moving and as much effort to stop. But with the lower gravity you’d only weigh—as in how much load you put on your feet—1/6 of what you do on earth. So if you weight 300 pounds on earth, you’d only weigh 50 pounds on the moon. You’d still have any geometrical issues from size, like thighs rubbing, belly getting in the way, etc. In other words, the only real difference is how heavy you feel, so your feet and knees would not have the same load, getting up from sitting would be easier, etc.

With a lot less load on you, would you choose to get fatter than you would on earth?

I've done this, and enjoy being that full (although usually I then don't sleep well that night, being so full I can't get comfortable).

I do it very rarely, however. Something I'll do every few years, then just savor the memories.

After a lot of eating, of course your belly will look bigger, and it may keep being somewhat bigger for a day or two--but of course this is just the effect of all the food packed into it.

As everyone else has said, actual fat you put on more slowly, and as it goes all over your body, not just one place, it will not be so obvious for small amounts.

However, if you spend, for example, a weekend steadily eating, to the point of being pretty much between full and stuffed the entire time, your gut will be swollen out to an impressive amount by the end. Doing that one time, my weight was up nearly ten pounds.....then all by eight or nine of that was gone by a couple of days later.

There are no guarantees. Genetics can roll weird combinations, some of genetics is which genes are actually turned on or off and that can change a lot between generations, we get partially programmed as a foetus and baby depending on what happens to us, and of course lifestyle plays a role. That is just what her body will tend to do on its own, but then she has free will and a brain, and can take action to drastically change things.

So is looking at her parents some sort of indication of what genetics she may have, as well as what sort of lifestyle she grew up with? Sure. But it is a bit like predicting the success of a professional athlete based on their high school career….just look at how unpredictable draft picks are in any league!

In my case when I met my now wife she was pretty thin, but then I met her BHM dad and SSBBW mom, and figured she was destined to become quite fat. She did track that way for several years, then decided she’d gotten larger than she was comfortable being, reversed a couple of years worth of it, and has stayed in the chubby/smallBBW range ever since, a good ten dress sizes smaller than her mom was at the same age.
