Hello, im new and I want to vent my issues. Im not sad or upset or distraught about this issue, im not sensitive or worried being harsh on myself. But its a big change and shocking lol. I have been skinny all my life and even fit, ever since I was a kid ive been super skinny and small. Now im 24, and im blowing up like a balloon. I thought genes would be on my side and I would get a lil fat in specific areas but NO. My thighs blew up, my butt got huge, my arms thickened, my face rounded out, my legs got massive, my belly round like a beach ball, I even have MOOBS now!! I literslly feel like a Thanksgiving parade float and it isnt even Halloween yet.. I was 130 pounds last year, now im 249!!! Im getting so FAT.

Is there a forum here for people with weight issues or eating disorders?  That would be helpful for some of us, including me.

  yes, when you get older many people go from very thin to gain some and face looking fuller etc.

That seems to be a large difference in weight in one year time frame. Have you had a visit to a doctor this may be a metabolic issue.

That's a lot of change😂. My mom said she had the same changes herself growing up. Growth is beautiful. Cheers to that.
