In April-May 2012 I gained 15lbs but because I was underweight to begin with anyway it made little difference at all.
Interesting point. So if you're quite thin to begin with a 10% gain won't be enough.
Perhaps it's necessary to gain to at least 10% more than the "normal weight" for your size to do a proper experimental gain.

Can you guys please give me advice on this like maybe someone on here also had to deal with parents and stuff?
Here's some advice on how to talk to your parents if/when you do gain (either before or after moving out):

Everybody's different, but some feedees really do eat a lot.

You can name your URLs to shorten them by putting [url=insertlink]textdisplayed. Then, just close off the URL like you normally would.

Good catch!

You really should post a pic or link to the best photo of the belly in question!

You should absolutely discuss it with her. In a non-pushy way of course. Just tell her your preferences but don't make a big deal out of it.
Who knows, maybe she's just trying to lose weight to please YOU?
My own case: I married an average-sized woman. She knew about my preferences before we got married, but I'd never made a big deal out of them. Later on she gained weight, and then lost weight, but she voluntarily kept her weight a little higher than she wanted for my sake.
I probably shouldn't give marriage advice since my own marriage ultimately failed, but I do know that people have to compromise in marriage. But it's hard to compromise unless both parties have all the pertinent facts.

Just curious, what do you think about the other side of the arguement?
I realize I still haven't completely answered this.
There's still the question of what someone should do if (contrary to my advice!) they decide to gain while still with their parents. Should they seek their parents approval or support in such a case?
Actually this is a tricky question, because they might have to confront their parents on this whether they want to or not.
I don't have a good answer on this one.
Anyone else?
