I would like to second this. Any fellow FFer who recognizes me out there in the world, say Hi! It's good to feel connected to someone. And I know I'm not alone in saying that I often feel isolated by the fact that I'm a gainer/wannabe-feedee.

Oh, I noticed a fair bit of out-growing. Button were popped, seams ripped, and shirts rode up. Which only contributed to my confusion and frustration at apparently gaining no weight.

I finished Harry Potter again. So now, once the flat on my car has been repaired I'll go to the Library to rent the Stand and start on my Stephen King extravaganza.

I'd prefer a much lighter partner, both for the purposes of attraction and just for practicality.

I'm rather...massive. 580lbs to be exact, and with a partner near that weight I'm not certain sex would even be possible. (And it would almost certainly destroy my bed to try as I'm nearly too much for it on my own.)

I like the idea of contrast; someone much thinner than me pressed against my soft flabby belly...sinking in slightly, me feeling my love-handles enveloping her a little. It's a very erotic thought.

As for taking off my clothes in front of such a woman...*swallows* I don't know; I would be nervous, and not only because I'm so fat (I'm also a virgin), but if I was positive of her attraction I'm sure I'd be able to take off my clothes.

As for her disrobing in front of me, again...new experience. Though I'm sure I'd be interested.

Sex with a slim woman seems more practical to me, not to mention (as stated above) a bit more appealing sexually (part of my fetish is actually feeling massive in comparison to things, which is why I like the idea of getting stuck in doorways and wearing tight clothes). If I were to try with a woman close to my weight there'd be the issue of things possibly not reaching, and then the combined weight of the both of us would likely crush most bed frames.

Phew, only five pounds shy herself.

I wish you luck, I myself haven't been 400lbs for years. I think I crossed that line in sophomore year of high school. It's a pity that you'll be gaining up to the big fat four hundred only to turn around and retreat again though.

I think most scales do, some more than others. Like mall scales for instance. I was relying on them for a long time when I first started gaining on purpose. I was very frustrated that I "seemed" to plateau for a long time at 399lbs. Only to find out later that I was actually around 470lbs. The max on those scales is 399, but they don't register error messages.

It's safe to say I'm in. I just need some time where I have the house to myself so I can make my character.

Well, if you do a lot of cooking for yourself you can add Heavy Cream to your recipes wherever they call for milk.

Little Debbie's Snack cakes are ridiculously fattening and very easy to eat (in my opinion anyway).

You can do it more healthily too, drink fruit juice when you'd normally drink water. Things like that.

Confidence can be intimately linked to how much you weigh. With society hurling messages in your face constantly that you aren't worth anything if you're fat, you're unhealthy if you're fat, you're unattractive if you're fat, it's hard for your confidence not to take a hit.

Every time a gain shows up on the scales it's a turn on for me. I love the way I feel and look when I'm getting fatter. The more blubber the better.
