I managed to put on 4 lb last Thanksgiving day. mind you, the Midwest cuisine is kinda rich.
23 lb Turkey, green beans in a broth made from fried onion & bacon, mashed cream with full milk & butter, sweet potato with brown sugar & butter, homemade rolls, and of course entree & a choice 3 pies to follow.
Damn, I'm hungry now just typing all of that !
They serve food down in Texas that is a bit more filling than Kendal mint cake then Scarlett ?

I've gained around 8 to 10 pounds since arriving 3 months ago. But a lot of that is down to inactivity, when before I was at work all day, where as now, I mostly lounge around the house watching ESPN

Think I've put on about 30lbs in the last year or so ... now this isnt all bad (except when mum see's me in December shes going to call me "tubby")
After spending most of my adult life coping with depression and a hubby (now ex) who didnt know the meaning of the word "faithful" I hovered mostly around 90-100lbs.
Having a wonderful loving hubby has sorted all that out so I now describe myself as "fat n happy" yeah so I'm now a size 14 , 16 in the UK but I dont care !!

At the end of the day, as long as you are happy with what you are, then who cares what others think ?
