CustardCream:Thank you Munchies!
My job is fairly active and physical, often moving weight around and walking maybe 3 - 8 miles a shift depending on needs. I probably need to work on my cardio, but whatever that is, has to be low impact as I smashed my right knee to bits 4 years ago, and I'm under doctors' orders to not doo high impact stuff.
What sort of lotions should I be using? I've not got a skin care routine, and have no idea what should be done! I never found my stretch marks to be itchy.
Munchies:RIP about your knee man.
Yeah, cardio is a must for a lot of things. There's a lot of low impact cardio you can do. Heck, even walking quickly at your job counts so long as you sustain an elevated heart rate. If you don't have one, get you a fitbit or something similar.
As for the lotion:
Assuming you don't have allergies, there's a lot of different options for you to choose. Here's a helpful guide:

Thank you again. I don't have a Fitbit, but I couldn't wear one, I can't stand things on my body like watches or lanyards (I'm gearing up to get tested for Autism) I do have a blood oxygen thingy though that reads the pulse. Usually 70 or so, but a few times its been 65, usually after a busy period at work, so I know I need to work harder to get the resting rate lower. As an aside, both Mum and I have 94% oxygen levels. This was first discovered when I smashed my knee up, but the doctors didn't find anything on the x-rays of concern. I don't think I breathe properly, especially when nervous/stressed at work.
Thank you for your tips on the lotion. I do have oily skin so that link gave me some pointers.

CustardCream:
For me, I found that my capacity for food declined once I started to get bigger. Perhaps I should have forced my way through that, but I started with double cream and it helped.
If you are into stretch marks, the pure joy and euphoria I had when I found mine must have been the happiest of my life. Now I want more and deeper ones, but for me it mean't I had succeeded.
Good luck on your journey, and I hope it will be quicker than mine was!
Munchies:
Speaking as a very intense domme feeder, rapid weight gain is super sexy. But as someone who used to gain, I advise everyone to go at their own pace and let their body adjust to your new bulk. You gotta live in your body 24/7. It's best to be comfortable.
Since I know you aren't into health complications, please make sure to be somewhat healthy. Regular exercise helps offset some complications (and increase your appetite). Eating healthy foods also decreases some of those risks as well. (Junk food is fine so long as you don't live off of it.)
Don't become so goal oriented that you forget to enjoy the journey. Enjoy your food. Explore your body. Admire your growing form every chance you get.
Also, if you don't have any, get some lotion. Rubbing it on your belly after a good stuffing feels so nice. It's also good to regularly put on lotion to keep your skin soft and stretchable. It won't save you from the stretch marks, but it makes them less itchy.
Thank you Munchies!

Fellow sloe eater here. I just seem to need to chew so much before I can swallow. Exception seems to be rice, as a main or as rice pudding.
This week I had a good stuffing with a selection of things from the food to go section. A couple of pasta salads, a Cornish pasty, jumbo sausage roll, crisps, Mr Kiplings cakes and a tub of ice cream to finish. I dread to think about the plastic waste, but it was all beside me ready to go and didn't dry out waiting for me.

Thanks! I'd better look at suspenders then!

So may I take it that you are all having your trousers over your belly? I usually have my belly over the top. Recently, I've been finding them falling down all the time when I wear the walkie talkies as well as large bunch of work keys!

This is why my gains are glacial in speed! My job is 8,000 to 18,000 steps a day depending on what happens that day.

I quite agree people shouldn't be quiet on our account! In most restaurants the music is enough to hide the eating. Sadly the same can't be said in someone's home, which is when I struggle the most.

Sorry to hear she is having problems.
It is nice she lets you continue on here.
11 years ago is when I started coming here.
Thank you Ditzy, yes, she is very kind that way. I am positive that my recent gains may re-spark things...and if not, I'm very happy to be bigger.
