I Like Being Fat.

A little over a year ago I decided to gain weight. I have never been fat, but then to my pleasant surprise I found out there are some serious health benefits to becoming fit and fat.

It took some research to learn how to become fat. I found that the best way is to gain the weight very slowly. It takes your body and who you are time to adjust. I decided to go from 180 pounds to around 225. By going slowly I found out once you gain the weight you will find it almost impossible to lose the weight. When gaining the weight you need to keep some kind of exercise program going, but do not go to crazy with it, the idea once you have achieved your goal is to remain fit and fat.

I found as I became fat most of the weight probably close to 25 pounds went right into my belly. I found to my surpise I really like being fat, I am amazed how great I feel having a nice fat belly. It took me about a year to reach my goal. I found only one major problem with being fat the weight in my belly pulls on my lower back and I have lower back pains plus being fat does effect my posture. I found a solution and I went to a corsetier for a fitting in a long legged high waisted boned and zippered panty girdle. I asked the corsetier if I should wear a corset she I really did not need a corset, but my belly does need a fair amount of support. I found once in a girdle I was amazed the support my fat belly had was great, I now could rely on the girdle to just hold and support my belly, I no longer can rely on myself to try and hold my belly in the girdle does a great job. No more lower back pains and now I can sit stand with great posture.

Is there anybody else have the same experience once you become fat?

Have excess fat on your body is proven to cause health risks...diabetes, heart disease, etc. Being comfortable is one thing, but putting yourself at risk by eating cheese burgers every day is another.

Some people actually enjoy working out. If i have a little spare time i'll hope on my stationary bike for half an hour and i feel great after. Just because you don't like excersizing doesn't mean people are "wasting their life" by doing it

I like fat people and I sometimes think I want to gain weight and wouldn't really mind it myself just so long as everyone else didn't hate me because of it.

I have been fat my entire life. What's the big deal. Everyone is different. The world is made up of different sizes, shapes, attitudes. I am extremely happily married to a BBW. Our size has never been a problem. We have 3 boys whom are normal sized. My oldest son is skinny as a rail and eats from sun-up to sun-down and gains very littlle weight. The main thing to remember is to be comfortable with ones self. The rest of the world can F@#k itself. You only live once, why spend all your time compairing yourself. Not everyone was made to look like a Supermodel. Tons of men are also attracted to BBW 'S Live your life to the fullest. "It not because life is so short, It's because death is so dammed long"

I like how you don't buy into all the media crap that's been trying to scare people into losing weight. I laughed when I saw it first start to happen, it reminded me of all the 'don't do pot' and 'don't smoke cigarette' type warnings, trumping up the fear, trying to make you feel like an outsider.



" but it made me feel inadequate and lowered my self esteem" Isn't that amazing? They say it helps you feel better in that sort of way, but it actually doesn't. I've become a crapload more self conscious and like you, pay much more attention to food than I did back when I was a higher weight.



I got down to a weight I was comfortable with, that I could move around easier with (which was what I hated the most about being over weight) and I was happy. Others have now pushed for me to lose more and I really don't like how I feel.



Good to see I'm not the only one that ended up feeling that way after the weight loss...and yay you for standing up for who YOU are.



It's your life, you're the one living it, you should be happy.

I like your attitude! I like being fat too. I am 5' 5' 13 years old and 350 pounds. I wanted to know what being fat was like, so i got fat. and fatter and fatter. as soon as i struck overweight i couldnt stop. until now. now im at a standstill and i like this weight. no gain no lose. dont worry about finding a man. i have a 365 pound bf who adores me so dont sweat it.

I admire you for your honesty. Maybe because it is why I feel the same. I was not fat all my life, but the last 20 years I packed it on. I am very healthy. And the people just do not want to hear it. Always the stupid remarks about blood pressure, cholesterol levels, blah,blah,blah. I am so sick of it. That is the only sickness I am suffering from. I like my wine and braai and my children think I am real fun to be around. That is the odd days when I see them. That is really all that counts. And the other things that really makes me mad, is the preconceptions about fat people. We are LAZY, STUPID, SLOW, SICK HYPOCONDRICS! And every time that I have proofed them wrong, they do not like me any longer. I consider that good riddance. Only disadvantage is that I am not very popular.

Enjoy your weight and your body. There are plenty of men who love fat women. But since society is so negative about it they don't come out and admit it. As for stretchmarks, I think they are just fine. Natures beauty marks. Live , eat, enjoy!

ok.. it's nice that you're content and not worried about your health, but 210lbs for a 5' 6" female puts you at a BMI of 33, which is in the obese range. forgive me for being blunt, but this indicates that you're doing something wrong, because you don't get that kind of BMI through "normal" eating habits.

whether it's poor eating, lack of exercise, or a mixture of both, you can't honestly insist that you're living a healthy, active lifestyle, but somehow got to a weight of 210lbs through no fault of your own. sorry if this sounds horrible, but I don't understand how this would work.

Hey, I would say 210 pounds puts you in the BBW category, and if the majority of men find that off putting then they are missing out on life. I'm glad you are comfortable with yourself and wish more women had your attitude rather than obsessing with trying to fit into size zero dresses because that's what the fashion world tells them they should aspire to.



As long as you are happy and healthy, then what size you are doesn't matter a jot. I've always had a preference for the more voluptious lady and I know I am far from alone in that sentiment.



I'd take a big lass who is comfortable with her body any day over a skinny girl who is obsessed about maintaining her figure.

i really like the way you thing about being fat. I mean thats a good thing and im starting to think that way too, so thanks <3

Gotta agree with toms0321 about the whole "fit and fat" concept. It sounds like nonsense, but it makes plenty of sense, actually. I know several women who clearly fit that description. They can go to a doctor and get a checkup, and everything checks out (normal blood pressure, good cholesterol levels, etc. etc.). They get exercise every day and basically eat healthy food. If anything, they tend to have bigger, more muscular legs than most women because they carry the extra weight around all the time.



Like anything, there are limits to how big a person can get before they exceed their body's ability to handle the weight without issues -- but that number varies for each individual. If you've got a big bone structure (adding a little bit of weight itself), you can easily be a 250lb. woman who doesn't even look "fat", much less find their size a hindrance.

You rock!! m/

If people only knew how great being fat could actually be. I am fat and I enjoy my life so much more than I used to.

I weigh 215 and I am 5'8" tall...I consider myself "fat" but I am also 61 years old. The problem I have is that I never saw a food that I didn't like (unless you watch "Zimmerman" and his exotic food choices). I also went to the gym, but at my age, it is very hard to keep up with exercise without hurting yourself. (I am always injured) I stopped going to the gym at 230 pounds because I gave up like a lot of people do. Since June of 2010 until today, I lost 15 good/bad pounds by just drinking water or juice instead of soft drinks. That 15 pounds took a lot of stress off my back and legs. I think you have a lot of inner strength and self confidence. Imagine how you would feel loosing just 15 pounds? (Just a note: I have at least 30 pounds to go...never will happen)

Don't feel guilty, you're fine the way you are.

I feel guilty. Every time I pick up food. I am the same high and weight as you.

The key to being FAT is to be what is called "Fit and Fat", about a year ago I decided to become fat and see what would happen. I gained from 190 to now 220, and the weight to my pleasant surprise all went right to my belly. I found that I can no longer hold in my stomach, and I actually found I really like being fat. The only problem is that since the weight went right to my stomach and I can no longer seem my toes which I do not mind, but what I found I did mind was that my stomach started pulling on my lower back and I was getting lower back pains. My problem was that I wanted to stay fat and have a large stomach, but I did not want the lower back pains that went along with being fat. What I did was I found a professional corsetier who fitted me in a long legged how waisted zippered and boned panty girdle. Once I was encased in the girdle the girdle supported my fat stomach and prevented me from having lower back pains. I actually found that I was more relaxed and felt great being firmly encased in a girdle. I was completly amazed.

Goodonya! Way to think and feel!

i will let you in on another little secret. as you get older your metabulism slows down

your body doesn't need as much food because your not as active as you were.so--ta-da- .

you slowly begin to lose weight. a little bit at a time over a long period. the same way you gained it .

so if you keep up the way your eating now you will almost automaticly slimdown as you grow older.

I feel you I really do. I used to be pretty fat. 5"2, 180: THATS BIG for me. lol. Stil, I was okay with it. I didn't try to lose weight until I found out I was borderline diabetic. I was like dang, I want to keep my legs and feet. So I got rid of that weight. I think as long as your healthy, you good.

That's a great attitude to have!

You are a brave and confident gal with an attitude that i really admires. Way to Go Sweetie!!!

ahhh delirium i liked your story. You are a sweet girl with a healthy way of looking at life in general. You have an idea of what is a weight limit for you but you are not obsessive about it. I agree that people need to experience the joy in life and just relax. All this stress and tension is just no good for anyone. So i appreciate you attitude and your story too. Thanks for sharing :)

Even posting a number to limit yourself is counterproductive to self-esteem. As long as you are healthy, you shouldn't obsess over size. There are those who admire the larger (and growing) figure. You need to know some of them.

I like being fat too. I eat what I want and when I want. I never feel guilty for eating 'naughty' things. Well done on your attitude.... I wish more people were like that.

Thanks :)

i like your attitude :)
