Not that I know of, but one joke that some large folks and FAs sometimes like to say is this:

"Who needs a 6 pack when you've got a keg?"

Awhile back there was a thread title "Warning, fat may be permanent!" or something like that. It alludes to the great difficulty in losing weight that's gained, even when you really want to and are dedicated to it.

Of course, I think many secretly don't want to, even those not into feederism. That only diminishes willpower.

It can be very hard to reverse course. It sounds like you have some thinking to do, because you might have conflicting feelings.

Okay so, of course I know what this web site is about; goodness know I've lurked and been on here for over a decade. It's also very easy to say you should just go for it.

However, it's not always that easy. Sometimes there's judgmental friends, family, or other individuals who you see frequently or even semi-frequently. It's also not reasonable to expect folks to just always remove these others from their lives. They could be coworkers, a boss, parents, and so on. Family members are the real big one, since they may say things. Even if you could, you might not really want to.

Either way, often there might be possible explanations, excuses, and reasons. Sure, the real reason might be because you love to chow down on triple stacked burgers, a large pizza is your personal pizza, and/or you love to graze on candy all day and suck down cartons of heavy cream at night, but they don't need to know that.

This isn't about me, or you the reader specifically. I just want to make a list of possible excuses that may or may not apply to your situation. I've been wanting to make this list for awhile, but finally got around to it.

I'll start this off and hope I can convey a general idea of what I'm looking for.

- The Freshman 15, 20, 30, or 50.

- Pregnancy/recently pregnant/never shed the baby weight

- Side effects of medications

- Starting a new job and the stress involved


Any others? It's my hope this may eventually help those who would like gain but feel like they can't even try because of certain social pressures, though family members are the big one more than anything. Lot harder to be dismissive. I also wasn't sure if this should go into the "weight gain" or "general" board, since it's more for folks who would like to gain but feel they can't.

I'm in my 30s, and it doesn't seem to have gone away. If anything it may be more intense than before.

I'd like to marry and have a kid or two. Of course, I look forward to the pregnancy weight gain, baby weight, and middle age spread.

I don't suppose she has to be into it. In fact, she'll probably end up gaining anyway. Though then I'll have to just get her to ignore those weight loss ads and try to convince her that I like her as she is.

Even wondering if there's anything to the theory of whether a lady who just gave birth may have an incredible ability to really gain.

Imagine if the obesity rate was 100%.

Careful... once you get started it might be hard to stop until you probably end up gaining more than you wanted to.

At some point you'll still have willpower but it will be harder no to give in.

Far as what others would think, probably better not to worry about it too much. Guessing you don't plan on anything insane like 20 pounds in a month. Something like 70% of the US is overweight, and the obesity rate is only increasing.

Maybe gain slowly, too. Less shock to others. Also, I don't know what kind of activity level you have, but a slower gain would also give your leg muscles more time to acclimate to carrying around a heavier you.

The carton typically says "Heavy Whipping Cream" but no, you don't whip it.

You drink it straight or maybe mixed with some flavoring agents of some sort (chocolate milk, syrup, etc.) if you want.

It can be hard to drink large amounts of it though. Some are able to build up to having more.

Sounds like maybe you should probably try to finish all that she serves you.

Maybe also try to upgrade to larger portions when you aren't around too, and eat dessert more often.

If you need more clothes, maybe take her along on the trip and see how she reacts to that.

Seems like you enjoyed it? So maybe get back into it? There can be some advantages.

Also all calorie burn estimates from exercise are low, so you might still gain and could if you want to.

In fact some report exercise makes them hungrier and then it's a net increase in calories. I'm sure you know how big some football players are, and volleyball players often seem a bit chubby.

I don't really know. Does she seem happy when you do finish it all and upset when you don't?

Although as many will attest, if you do add pounds it will likely be quite hard to drop them later.
