I keep shirts and things I really like. I've got stuff 3 or 4 sizes too small. Helps remind me how large I am.

I ate over 3300 calories of fast food today. So maybe I'm addicted. 🤔

There are suspenders designed to go under the shirt. That's what I'm going to go for if/when I outgrow my belt in a few inches.

I wear over my belly. I'm too tall to not; if I did, my shirt would never cover my gut. If you're going to buy larger pants, make sure they have a low rise.

Good old fashion cursed gift. Something like, a spurned sister, cousin, coworker, etc., gives protag a giant ugly sweater for Christmas. Protag grows fat enough to outgrow the sweater, extended family commenting on appetite and weight as they blow up.
Could be a reality shifting tale also, all the family oblivious to the new weight while protag and gift giver being aware.

I got very big into counting my calories when I started here. By the thousands. Now I just count the burgers.
BK is routinely the most calorific in terms of average meals, btw.

I thought this said disgusting at first.
Anyway, try talking differently than you typically do. If you're normally loud and clear, be soft and smoky. If you're normally soft, be stern.
Most hypnosis videos I've seen also depend on some kind of distorted ambience.
All in all, also realize the likelihood of recognition IRL is very small from something faceless online.

Especially if you're also tall. I just give an bear-like vibe apparently.
I mean, I can and do lift heavy stuff.

Thanks. I actually found some 6XL pants and shirts at a thrift store. The hips on the last man to wear them must have been astronomical, easily 4 feet across.

The Biggest Gainer: XXXXXXXL. Whoever can't put on pants first wins.
