Just bought a couple pairs of 36x30 pants just in case I need them for the month long challenge (I'm a 31/32x30 currently). Rewarding myself with a 3000 calorie lunch lol. Maybe I'll take on the leftover Cinnamon Roll this afternoon.
Did you have to upsize your pants after all?

Fat On The Inside:
It's a super funny little thing that may seem kind of obvious when you think about it, but I've noticed tags in my pants and shirts which I never noticed before. As I get bigger, I have to cut out shirt tags and pants tags that never bothered me before. This is kind of mundane, but on a fun note, I love the way my love handles jiggle when I walk and the way my breasts weigh me down.
Oh. I've started noticing tags more lately (even in the larger clothes I bought myself). I thought it was because of my autism and feeling more anxious lately, but I didn't know my recent weight gain could explain this change in sensitivity...

Turn on. It’s so cute when fat starts to get in the way. Even just bending over you’ve gotta make room for the belly. Or thighs so fat you can’t cross your legs anymore.
Yeah, even before I weighted myself and saw how much I've gained in the last few months, I noticed sitting with my legs crossed wasn't as comfortable...

I've always gained in my belly and thighs mostly, noticing more fat distribution to extremities with recent gains. My elbows finally developed a dimple and skin on upper arms 'puckering'? I can see where I might get a little roll someday on inner arm over elbow, but overall my arms aren't very fat yet. Recent-ish gain of almost 20# has made my belly super soft and squishy, especially everything south of equator.
Sagging more freely and even sways now, newest development is actually bulging out if I lift thigh\step forward. The wobble. Shape changing when sitting too, again south of the equator poofs out more when spreading over lap. Not a roll but indents on sides of bellybutton and the fat feels more fluid and jelly.
What I haven't seen mentioned on this thread is a "delayed distribution"... Does this happen to anyone else. My weight has held mostly steady or dropped a tad below 290 for months now. Even staying within same 5 pounds my belly seems to have done a drastic "fwump" in the way it hangs and added another solid inch or so while needle on scale refuses to budge.
A scar near top of my thigh was visible until recently, can't see it from front or side anymore. Belly dropped and spread out to cover it despite fact I haven't gained anymore weight. Same with another old scar I can't reach across belly anymore to cover with fingers. Exciting changes but slightly surprised at such a major shift without additional pounds.

I’m currently noticing something similar to this now. I stopped gaining in April and have maintained my weight, but I feel like I have slowly softened up since then. I haven't gained much more than 20 lbs, so I’m not sure how accurate my observation is.
Since I gained weight I'm even less physically active because most days I stay at my place instead of going out to places. This means I walk less, stay in bed later... I'm losing muscle so even if I've lost a 2-3 lbs my clothes aren't any looser. Even my one piece pyjama feels a little tighter.

I had 2 leather jackets in size XS and one in size S. I can zip the size S but I look ridiculously tight in it so I hope I can sell them all cause they were expensive!
I hope my Arc’teryx coat from last year still fits because I never spent so much on a garment before!
Hopefully it does because I bought it secondhand and I remember having some regrets after buying it because it was looser than I had expected it to be.
Maybe this year it will be the right size...
I dread having to go through my many pairs of pants to see if any look right on me. I already know the legs will be tight because even 20 lbs ago I had big thighs.
I hate cold/winter season. This summer especially I wore only loose shorts and dresses, so feeling tight in pants is going to feel like hell which won't help with my body image and self esteem.

I think about how I look all the time...

Haven't been able to lose any weight because I've been sleeping at my bf most nights which means I'm still waking up and eating at night. Will see an endocrinologist in December, I'm almost hoping something is wrong with my health so this can be medically fixed. I feel so uncomfortable in everything, I dread going out of my home now. But staying in means I'm moving even less and I need to start exercising even if it's just walking more... My bf says I need to jog and walking isn't exercise, but I have bad memories of PE classes from being a fat child/teenager...

Usually when I get a cold I tend to lose my appetite but this time I am ravenous. I can barely get out of bed but I am stuffing my face like never before because it's the only thing making me feel a little better. Has anyone ever experienced something like that before?
Yeah, my bf gave me his virus (flu? COVID19?) and while he lost a lot of weight from not feeling hungry and being so sick, I feel I can't stop eating... I find fat and sugar both help soothe the sore throat somewhat, so I don't foresee losing any weight myself. With this change in my diet and the staying in bed sleeping or not moving much, I'm actually worried I'll gain weight (I'm an FA but not into gaining).

I find the idea of having any like gym progress or weight loss progress sabotaged by a manipulative gentle feeder so hot ૮꒰ྀི⊃⸝ ⸝ ⸝⊂꒱ྀིა. Like being gaslighted and brainwashed by a man I think is so sweet would be a super great thing for me.
But like he would still encourage me to go to the gym with him and we'd do pilates at home and "eat right" but he would always convince me that one dessert won't hurt me... but does it every single day. And also if I out grew my clothes he'd help me pick out new ones and buy em for me, because he takes responsibility for his actions and takes good care of his things ૮꒰ྀི ´∩∩` ꒱ྀིა
Bad Option:
literally exactly what I’m doing with my girlfriend now and she’s already up 40 lbs. complains about it so we workout together and I help her, but if she gives into temptation then that’s on her…I’m just happy to keep the supply rolling
You say she complains... Is she into gaining or are you encouraging something she ultimately doesn't want for herself?
