I am still a closet padder.  The pile of old pillows that is ever-present in my closet will always give me away.  I’ve done it for longer than I knew that I liked fat—we’re talking 3rd or 4th grade, here.  My boyfriend knows I do it, but I’ve never done it when he’s around.  Out of habit, I only do it when no one is home, and that’s not often lately.

I can’t deny my secret attachment with padding, but I’ve never been ‘good’ at it per se.  I just mess around with pillows under my shirt/pants.  Sometimes I laze around the house with a little throw pillow under there, or sometimes I’ll try and fill up the 6XL shirt and shorts I have hidden away, too.  I can’t resist going as big as I can, but of course it never looks natural.  I just like the feeling of size.

I would totally pay money for a sort of movie-style fat suit, or at least a more natural way of padding.  Wearing something like that in public is something I’ve never thought about… but is very, very intriguing.  I will have to look into it.
