Constantly full or sporadic feasts

FattenedByCirce:
Well after a few days of experimenting with what works best for my body I’ve come to a few conclusions. 1) snacking throughout the day definitely sees an increase in how many calories I’m consuming and 2) Being stuffed for an extended period can let things sneak up on you.

There's definitely benefits to both so it's not black and white. Like I said above I prefer the "grazing" approach. But stuffing is still useful especially for stretching out my stomach a little bit and increasing my appetite. Even if I do get less calories out of it

Why are people so angry at fat acceptance movements on the internet?

Bobo:
People here forget, as I do, that many, many people find body fat as repulsive as dog poop and I'm not kidding.

Kitsune:
I doubt anyone forgot how internalized fataphobia is in human society for centuries. It's more like why is it so trendy in the algorithm on social media platforms plus on YouTube these days?

It's like the Gamergate Campaign of the early 2010's when it was trendy for terminally online guys to hate feminists and gamer girls. I still remember that so-called word "Feminazi." There was even internalized misogyny with the "better than other girls" mentality which years later aged like spoiled milk.

Algorithms and social media platforms have changed the way people think, unfortunately. Red Pill content on YouTube for an example attracts the Gen-Z crowd. (which is my generation) I assure my brother born in 2007 watches that crap since he's constantly worried about the future.

Maybe the anti-fat content will die down someday and people will move on to the next new thing to detest on. Not to say that is any better, just a sad part of life. You are right though fat-hate in general isn't anything new. It's just mentally draining to see it in your own online space. It's those few reasons why I am trying to quit Reddit cold turkey.

Fatphobia is almost entry level bigotry, it starts people down a road of hating others who are different, and once one of these "red pillers" get rallied up enough they're more likely to go against other minority groups. Once you've convinced these people to dehumanize one group of people it's easier to dehumanize others in their mind

Romy:
That guy constantly wrote me private messages encouraging me to eat and keep winning. Some messages invited me to imagine eating a particular food and how good it would feel.
He was very annoying and yes, he was a stalker.
Thanks for reporting it.

Munchies:
Oh my God, I am so so sorry you had to deal with that.

For what it's worth, it seems he deleted his profile.

Still, to reiterate things, it is your choice to do whatever you want with your body. You chose to work on being healthier. Yes, you are struggling, but that does not mean you gave up. Nor does it mean that you are a failure who should eat herself to death.

If nothing else, this has shown you have a lot of people in this community who support you.

It looks like munchies was right, he did pull the cowards deletion. I'm sorry you've had to deal with all his shit Romy, I hope this won't make dent on your weight loss journey. It's only been a month since you first pledged to lose some weight, and I know you've had some setbacks. But you will make progress sooner than you think, good luck on your journey and please remember there are more people routing for you than against you, and the people against you should be ignored

Too fat for feeders but too fit for feeders?

Morbidly A Beast:
Also in my experience it seems straight ffa’s are more into already fat guys as opposed to ones who are skinny or want to become fat, i could stand corrected on this but it seems to be the general consensus

Munchies:
There are a good chunk of FFAs who prefer a "blank slate" so to speak. A thin man that they can fatten as much as they'd like. And then there are FFAs like me that don't care about the start weight.

MottiF:
I wish I could meet ffa in person 🥺

Munchies:
Question. Why do you keep necroposting? This is something you've been doing a lot lately. You'll go on these posting binges where you'll reply to really old threads. This one is a year old, but I've seen you go even older.

What's up with that?

JN_TumLover56:
It sounds like this fellow must be quite a fan of you! Unless of course he’s trying to outrank you in the top posters. Perhaps a bragging right?

Munchies:
Idk if he is a fan of mine, but we are on friendly terms.

As for the top posting spot, I don't really care. The more people who post, the better. In my ideal situation, I would not be the chattiest person on here.

But it's more like ... why necropost when you can make a new post? You feel me?

Anonko:
What does necroposting mean, I'm genially curious

(Also on the topic of the forum I think judging by starting weight is stupid, especially since I've found myself being veryyy weary of people who are on these sites and just catfish)

Munchies:
Necroposting is when you revive a long inactive thread. For example, posting on a thread where the last post was six months or more ago.

It's considered an internet faux pas. The general consensus is if you come across an old thread and want to contribute to it, make a new thread based on the topic. Maybe link to the old thread as needed.

Because honestly it seems like a lot of people create accounts and then leave so a lot of people on the original discussion aren't even on the platform anymore.

imma be honest fellas i only really signed up here for lurking yet this hedonistic purity guy has been so fucking godawful that i, a lone 21 year old lurker from North Yorkshire who does't even talk anywhere on here, am stepping in to say "Romy clearly does not want to be involved in death feedism. she's gotten herself into a rather difficult predicament, and it's clear she's at a point where she wants to get out of this difficult predicament"

honestly who the hell goes up to a clearly struggling online person and says "i'm so proud of you!" in response to their struggles? fucking disgusting.

anyway this will probably be the only post i make on this forum, good day.

Munchies:
I'm not, actually. This whole thing started when you told a woman struggling with an eating disorder to keep eating despite knowing this would kill her.

You wished for this woman's death despite her making it very clear she is not a death feedee.

And when several people told you to leave her alone, you persisted. That is harassment. Do you think I reported you for harassing me? I reported you for harassing her.

We women have to look out for each other because men like you make it dangerous for us.

I am grateful that two other men stepped up to defend her, too. Because that shows that you are the one being the problem. This isn't a case of some overly sensitive woman not understanding how men are. This is a you being a creep thing.

Be better.

One of the most beautiful parts of this community is the idea that you can change your body however you see fit. In my case, I'm going for a muscle chub look, and while it's not the most common body type on here it's what I want for myself, and no one can convince me otherwise. And so I've set soft limits for myself, I don't want lose my mobility. I don't mind if it's reduced but I don't want it gone completely.
Romy has already achieved and surpassed her goals, she has the right to decide where she wants to take her body next. The difference between munchies, myself, and hell even enas is that we are trying to support her very difficult decision, while you are trying to run counter to it. You have no right to cheer for her downfall, Romy made one misstep on what's going to be a very long weight loss journey. She needs support not heckling

Hedonistic_Purity:
I'm so happy for you!

Munchies:
Piss off. We all know you are wanting her to die. It would be one thing if that'a what she wanted, but it's not.

Even Weetabix, another death feeder, has more decorum than you.

Hedonistic_Purity:
No I just want her to eat. As much as she wants.

Munchies:
Which is killing her. I said what I said. I've seen your posts. I know what you are about. I'm not stupid. Go back to the feedees that want to eat themselves to death. She isn't one of them.

Hedonistic_Purity:
Nah, I just want her to enjoy herself. She loves to eat.

SumoSized:
Dude she's gained to the point that it's no longer enjoyable, she's already heavier than most gainers/feedees on this site will ever be. Let her get back to a weight where she can enjoy herself again, and if you don't think this is so bad, why don't you gain 800 lbs and see if you'd want to keep gaining? I'm sure once you reach that weight you'll realize it's not all what its cracked up to be

Hedonistic_Purity:
She can do whatever she wants. I don't have to LET her do anything. But eat.

Munchies:
Bitch, piss off. I'm reporting your ass for harassment.

Hedonistic_Purity:
You're not the arbiter of this thread, friendo.

Munchies:
You've still been reported.

And we look out for vulnerable people. We do not encourage their continued misery. If you really are a fellow hedonist and not a predator, you would know that.

Hedonistic_Purity:
Your looking out sounds a lot like simping. I've also reported you for your harassment.

Lads, is it simping to give advice to woman who asked for advice on the Internet?

Romy:
My diet is a total failure. I binge eat secretly from my husband and ultimately he knows it because the scale doesn't lie.
My nurse was condemned to fight with me because I didn't give me food and with my husband for providing it.
My husband is tired of dealing with me and decided to leave everything in my hands.
When I want to eat no one tells me anything. Now the diet is in my hands.
This is a disaster. I start crying while binge eating, but I can't stop ordering fast food and swallowing like a pig.
My physical therapist came to my house and I was eating hamburgers. The look on that guy's face was atrocious and I imagine he only thought "I get paid to do my job and keep my schedule."
I feel like no one helps me and they left me alone to my own devices, but I don't make the slightest effort either and I can't help it either, because the desire to eat is so strong that I end up eating everything on my table.

Hedonistic_Purity:
I'm so happy for you!

Random spikes in weight gain

SumoSized:
Has anyone else experienced random spikes where they've put on quiet a few pounds all at once? I've been weighing myself weekly and since last Thursday I've gained 8 lbs which is quite significant for me as I've been stuck on a months long plateau.
I've been consistently eating between 3,000-4,000 calories per day for the last few months now, and haven't seen much results until now. Does anyone know what causes these plateaus and sudden spikes? I know in the long run 8 lbs isn't much but it feels like a lot to put on in a week

Munchies:
Lotta reasons, but it typically has to do with your hormone fluctuations.

Also, there's a non-zero chance that some of that is water weight.

I guarantee a decent amount of it is probably water weight but I have gained around 18 lbs since I moved out back in November so not all of it is water weight. I'm just excited to finally see some results

Constantly full or sporadic feasts

FattenedByCirce:
I think my snacks end up being more than I’d anticipated and that’s why I’m so stuffed all the time. I like the idea of given the internals a rest, just need to develop some willpower to stop all the snacking between feasts

Honestly I'd do some experimenting if I were you, one day do big feasts and stuffings and count up all the calories you eat as the day goes along, and then the next day eat your meal like normal (maybe give yourself slightly bigger servings but nothing to extreme) and just do light snacking throughout the whole day. Then after both days compare how many calories you've eaten
