As a guy who prefers "moderately large" ladies the most (by FA standards at least), in the range of 200-300 pounds, I still can find very thin and much larger women attractive, as style and personality matters me more than just raw weight. However, my dating experience is only with thin, or with at most about 300 pounds girls.
Lately I've been fascinated with the thought of dating a woman who is much larger than the size range I've been used to, even 500 lbs or more. I've never met someone this big in real life, there aren't really many 300+ lbs in my area, but from online photos and videos I learned that it is possible for me to find even a woman above 500 lbs super attractive.
However, due to my lack of experience with sizes this big, I'm interested in some advice. How should I prepare, what should I look out for, if it so happens that I find someone in the 450-500 lbs or higher category, so I don't cause embarrassment for myself or for her? The more obscure and unexpected the advice, the better. I'm not a complete idiot, so of course I know not to invite her to a difficult hike, or to any activity which would be tiring for her or too difficult for her to navigate. So I'm looking for advice from those who are of that size or have dated someone of that size, and know what people inexperienced with such sizes don't expect.

I think you’re going to get a bunch of responses which are different variations on “talk to and especially *listen to* the person you’re dating”. I can’t imagine there’s much more to say, but if there is, please be respectful on both sides.
I think the other thing is not to objectify or fetishize her.
Sure, it's nice to learn things to be mindful of your partner, but questions like these makes it very easy to depersonalize your partner. These are the same questions you ask when you get a pet.
Every woman is different. Every fat woman is different. The needs and desires will be different. What works for one will not work for the other.
I know some 400+ people that try to stay active and others who avoid it like the plague. I know some who are fearsly independant and others who love being doted on.
Like LettersAndNumbers says, communication is vital. But you have to keep the person inside the body in your mind first. If you get into a relationship thinking you know how to take care of a 400-500 lbs gf, you're doomed to fail. At that point, you've closed yourself off to growth.
Instead, focus on learning to be a good partner. There's nothing more attractive than when a man asks you "How can I make you feel more loved and supported?" and then follows through. Even if you are already doing everything right, the fact that you asked means you value and cherish her.
