I have been a subtle encourager for years. My wife is a BBW. In the past two years I have been steadily putting on weight. I used to try to stay under two hundred pounds (I was in the military reserves for several years.) now I'm up to two hundred and seventeen pounds with a BMI of 31, clinically obese! My wife must obviously see I'm gaining but she hasn't commented on my weight at all. I think most women, have some feeder tendencies. I will fix my plate and eat a good deal more than she does. She always says "there more over their if you want". Great thread, by the way. Yes, I do feel like I'm becoming or could become a "feedee".

I would love to participate, but I'm afraid too, family, society etc. I think I could gain one hundred pounds in a year, but it would be difficult. I wanted to put on weight this holiday season, and didn't succeed which has been somewhat depressing, as I gained five pounds last year, just can't seem to reach the next threshold.

I really enjoyed reading this thread. I have to admit, I am so envious of you being able to let go and totally gain! Someday I will work up the courage and just explode!

I would like to hit 220 lbs. this year at some point. Then the issue will be where to go from there, gain more weight/maintain/lose.

Happy New Year, by the way.

I'm surprised the average weight gain is only a pound. Last year I gained around five pounds. I enjoyed every once. I want to gain about the same this year. I went to 215 last year, this year's goal is 220. I love all the Christmas treats (see my photos)so, to all Merry Christmas and a great appetite!

I do like this thread, though it may need to be in "Stuffing". A month or so ago, I "tied one on" and ate six "pigs in blankets" most of a box of macaroni and cheese, regular 16 oz. regular soda, several cookies, and a pint of "Ben and Jerry's". The total was over 3100 calories. I added an inch to my waist and three pounds of fat!

I agree, heavier foods, pastas, sauces, etc. make me feel full and bloated. You might try breakfast foods, eating several pancakes, with syrup etc. will fill you up. Buy the mix in fairly large bags a batch here or there would not be noticed.

Wow, you are so lucky! Marry her, then you won't have to worry.

My butt is pretty large too. I barely can wear jeans (regular cut) in my waist size. The relaxed fit is the way to go. I also wear micro fiber briefs (WalMart has a good selection. I find these let the jeans "slide" over my butt. I have found cotton briefs get pulled down if I do a lot of bending over and have to be "adjusted" in the rest room.
