Practical Problems of Having a Gut...

[jb17kx]

Being a not-so-accomplised starter gainer, I wanted to ask those who have had success what sort of practical problems arise from having a gut hanging of your front. As someone once put it: "You want to be fat, but you know diddly squat about being fat."
So I ask here: What action do we thin people that for granted that fat people cannot do? What do you find hard? That sort of thing...

[gerd_07]

nothing to me, just got extra weight on ur gut hangin down.

[gerd_07]

and oh yeah, this is sortof obvious, what do you think you cannot do when your skinny and when your fat duh. its obviou. common sense question their.

[Matuso]

Well, I've never recalled being thin, which sometimes creeps me out.

I can't...
-Tie my shoes without sitting
-Run very much
-Use the lecture hall seat folding desk thing

Those are some...big...ones, I think.

What's it like not having a big pillow in front of you to rest your arms on?

[Omniscient]

Yeah, like he said, it's harder to tie your shoes now...
But we don't have those desks you do... Here it's like a huge table and everyone sits around it, on "ordinary chairs". :D

[Matuso]

The desks I'm talking about are the chairs in the lecture hall, and there's this little platform thing that hangs on the side of your chair between your chair and the next chair (they're all connected), and you pull the little platform, which is about big enough to fit a piece of paper, and fold it over, presumably so you sit behind it. It gets about halfway down and smashes into my stomach.

The desks are tough for me, too. I was glad that I got transferred classes at the beginning of the year; first I had a class where all the desks were chair-desks, and I got transferred to a class with just desks and chairs, no connections. The deskchairs maim my internal organs, and just hurt.

we have desk chairs in my science class and when i stand up it goes with me
