When do Mobility Issues Start to hit? Anonymous

I’m sure most of us have seen plenty of videos of massive SSBBWs who get winded just walking across the room and even getting out the bed is a tall task. Plus if your American most of us have seen some massive people having to ride around on scooters at the store to shop. Obviously everybody handles the weight different but at what size do mobility issues generally start to set in? I’m not even taking the most extreme cases where walking to the fridge is a problem but when does everyday walking to work or to shop become a problem? For instance my girlfriend weighs around 305-315 and other than getting winded going up a flight of steps, her mobility is fine and she is able to work a retail job on her feet. At what size could this become an issue?

>>78366 Depending on height, as early as 250 can start it, hell even earlier for some women. There was a tiny period of time where my mom was just over 200 lbs (I think maybe 210ish?) from her super sedentary job, and she was scared she'd have to start using a scooter at the store. She'd also go on about how her thighs kept touching and rubbing together and how uncomfortable it was for her. Maybe if she was less sedentary during that period it would have been less of a problem, but I couldn't tell you.

My girl gained about 60 pounds in a year while being fairly sedentary. At 207 pounds, she had some minor issues with stairs and started getting out of breath from simple household chores. It depends on physical fitness as well as overall size. Everyone is different.

Friend of mine weighs about 250, is 5'4", and stores fat primarily in her ass and thighs. She gets winded super easily as shes not nearly active enough. She visibly waddles and is super slow. I have a family member who weighs 100lbs more, stores it mostly in her belly, and while she waddles and is slow, she has plenty of stamina. Another member still is 50 lbs heavier, stores it in their belly and ass, and gets exhausted super easily because they dont eat right at all. No vegetables or fiber. All carbs and meat. It really does depend on height, weight, build, and lifestyle.

>>78384 Lifestyle is a huuuge part of it. I've dated girls im the 300s who obviously had a hard time getting around and girls who were close to or over 500 who were completely independent, lived alone, good hygiene, drove themselves, etc.

>>78366 My wife is 5'5 and I'd say she really starts to slow down when she's over 350. At her peak, which was just shy of 400, she was very limited. We went to the beach for a weekend and she had to abandon our walk after about a minute because it was too much weight to carry through the sand.

As much as it would be simpler if it were an exact formula (at X pounds, you have Y mobility) all this stuff happens on a spectrum. Even for “immobile” people, you can still get out of bed with enough assistance. And some days are better than others, and some periods you have more strength than others. The reality is that it depends on quite a few factors (most notably percentage muscle mass).
