Chapter 2

Valerie rubbed the sleep from her eyes and looked at the clock on the wall. When she realized that it was already late afternoon, she felt a small pang of hunger. As if on cue, her mother called her to the kitchen for lunch. She walked slowly to the kitchen table, her body feeling heavy and bloated from her huge breakfast earlier in the day. There on the table were two boxes of pizza, pasta, and a cheesecake from Domino's. The aroma filled her senses, and her mouth began to water instantly. Valerie was tempted, but she was so full from earlier. She looked over at her mom, who beamed back with a look of pride mixed with concern. "You have to eat if you want to stay healthy, baby," Paula said encouragingly. Valerie couldn't believe it, this was really happening. She was going to gain a lot of weight if she kept eating this way. Why was mom feeding me so much?

Valerie decided to go for it again, as the food looked too tasty to say no to. After 4 slices of pizza and a hearty side of chicken alfredo, she began to feel incredibly full. Again, her mom pushed her to continue eating, saying she got the food just for her in a disappointing tone.
Valerie took another slice of pizza, savoring the gooey cheese and savory toppings. "Just one more bite," she told herself, knowing deep down that she had already eaten way too much. As she chewed, her mother Paula watched her intently, ready to speak up at any moment. Valerie could feel the disappointment in her mother's eyes and it made her stomach churn. "I can't. I'm done mom," Valerie huffed, pushing the plate away and holding her belly. She felt painfully full and her stomach felt like it was going to burst. The urge to purge came over her, but she knew it would be better to tough it out.

Paula looked on in amusement as Valerie sat at the table hiccupping and digesting. She then cuts a huge slice of the cheesecake, literally a fourth of the whole cake, and places it in a plate in front of Valerie.
Valerie tried to refuse the cheesecake, but her mother was insistent. "Come on, baby girl, you have to eat," she cajoled. "It's your favorite cheesecake. You can't say no!" Valerie reluctantly took the fork and began to eat, her belly already painfully full and distended. But Paula was right, the cheesecake was delicious, creamy and sweet, and Valerie couldn't resist the temptation to eat more. She closed her eyes and kept feeding herself, not caring how much her belly growled in protest. Valerie's desire to eat grew stronger, but she was so painfully full she didn't know if she could finish the last 2 or 3 bites. "Fuck it, I have to try and finish this. I'm so close, I can't give up," she told herself convincingly.

Valerie managed to finish her massive slice of cheesecake, and she felt like she had swallowed a bowling ball. Her tummy was starting to look swollen from all the food she had eaten today. Despite feeling incredibly full, Valerie wanted to eat more. She loved the feeling of being stuffed and the warmth that spread through her body. She knew she wanted to continue eating and start gaining weight. With her belly aching and heavy, Valerie decided she needed to go lie down. She made her way slowly to her room, each step causing her legs to slightly rub against each other with a new-found thickness. As she lay down, she put her hand on her belly and felt it jiggling slightly. Had she always had this little belly or was this new? She felt herself starting to get wet as she imagined what would happen if she kept eating this way. First she would become chubby, then fat, then obese, and maybe more. Her appetite would grow by leaps and bounds as she got used to eating such big meals everyday.

After a few moments, Valerie got up from her bed, dressed in only her now snug black bra and panties. She walked into the bathroom, took a deep breath and faced the mirror. She took out her phone and began taking selfies. As she admired her perfect smile, waist long silky black hair, and curvaceous hips, she noticed something different. Her inner thighs were touching more. They were a touch wider now and she could see the curve of her sizeable butt protruding out. Valerie turned around, checking to see how much bigger her butt had gotten. She saw that her once slender thighs had thickened, and her belly had grown a bit rounder. This was all so sudden and she felt herself growing warm at the thought of her already gaining weight in the week since she had moved back home with mom. She thought of the scale and knew she needed to get a starting weight if she was really going to do this.

Valerie could feel herself getting excited as she took out the scale and steppped on. She is shocked to learn she's already gained 5 pounds, putting her at 145 pounds.

Valerie couldn't believe that she had gained five pounds so quickly. It was a mix of disbelief and excitement that filled her. She felt her hips jiggling as she did a little happy dance. Paula was right; food made her happy, and she knew that she wanted to keep gaining weight. Her goal now was to break 150 pounds, and she was determined to surpass that milestone. Valerie went back to the kitchen, still dressed in only her black bra and panties, and poured herself a big glass of soda. She took a seat at the kitchen table, feeling the soft flesh of her thighs spill over the chair. The delicious aroma of the leftover pizza and pasta in front of her was too much to resist. "What's happening to me? Why cant I stop thinking about eating and growing?" She wondered.

Valerie looked up to see her mom walk back into the kitchen, holding a new slice of cheesecake. Paula set the plate down in front of Valerie and smiled lovingly at her daughter. "It's okay, Valerie. You're so beautiful, and I think you'd look great with a little extra weight. Just enjoy the food today, sweetie" Paula said in a sweet and sympathetic tone. Valerie felt her heart swell with gratitude.

"You're right mom, thank you so much. I'm so glad I'm back home getting to spend time with you and enjoy all this delicious food. But if I keep eating this way you know I'm going to gain a lot of weight right? Would you be OK with that mom?" Valerie asked, hoping and praying her mom would continue to be supportive of her new habbits even as she grew past just chubby.

Valerie began to slowly eat the cheesecake while rubbing her stuffed tummy in circles gently, waiting for her mom's reply intently. Her mind whirled with excitement at the prospect of gaining weight, the thought of having a large, soft belly, massive thighs, and a weight that would make it difficult to walk excited her tremendously. As she ate, Valerie noticed the way her belly jiggled slightly at the gentle touch of her fingertips. She felt the fabric of her once perfectly fitting underwear digging into her skin uncomfortably. The thought of going up a size didn't bother her as much as she thought it would. In fact, the idea of having to buy new clothes to accommodate her growing body actually made her feel giddy with excitement. "Hopefully mom really is body positive," she thought.

"Valerie, becoming happy is what truly matters to me. If that means you gain a bit of weight, so what?" Paula replied beaming with pride. Hearing these words of encouragement from her mom, Valerie felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude and joy. Without hesitation, Valerie reached for another slice of cheesecake and hungrily devoured it, feeling the sweet and creamy filling melt in her mouth with every bite. As she ate, she kept rubbing her bulging belly through the thin fabric of her panties, savoring the feeling of the soft flesh and the plumpness growing quickly beneath. She could almost feel the fabric stretching more, imagining herself growing until it was finally too tight against her expanding frame. Valerie finished her third slice of cheesecake and was painfully full. Her mom walked her over to the bedroom where she fell into a deep food coma, dreaming of all the food she would eat in the coming days.
