Are You Fat In Your Dreams?

LillyBBBW · 04-06-2007, 11:06 PM

I just had a dream that I was in a store shopping for clothes. My sister was excitedly telling me about a store that was having a sale on casual wear. I went directly to the rack and sifted through the section marked 6x, but all they had were leopard print bathing suits and polyester ankle skirts in pink and mint green.

A while ago someone asked if we were fat in our dreams and I didn't know the answer. I rarely remember my dreams. Of the ones I remember I was neither fat nor thin. The focus in the dream was elsewhere and size was too much of a cumbersome detail. Odd that I don't recall ever having dreams where I'm a thin bombshell or something other than what I am. In another dream I had this evening (I have a cold so I'm dreaming a lot) I was running from a little girl and in this dream I'm fat. It's not a detail, just a part of my identity.

Do you dream yourself fat?

In my dreams I am thin.

tinkerbell · 04-06-2007, 11:17 PM

This is interesting, I will have to pay more attention.

I think sometimes I am thinner in my dreams, or I'm the size I am now. I don't think I've had dreams where I'm fatter than I am now, but watch, I will now that I've said it

I've never had dreams where my size is a significant factor...

I do have lots of dreams of drowning...and then lots of dreams of being pregnant.

Psychoanalysts, have at it!

tinkerbell · 04-06-2007, 11:47 PM

I've had many pregnant dreams too. But I know the reasons for those for me anyway.

Yup. I can say that has happened in my dreams as well. Its not implied or thought about, but accepted.

Usually I'm fat too, because it's part of my identity, that's all. A few times I've dreamt that I was thin, and I remember thinking in one dream that it felt unusual not to have my belly and boobs bouncing around all the time or getting in my own way. Otherwise I don't recall that being thin made me feel any different.

Drowning dreams usually represent being overwhelmed with work or being caught up in a situation that has gotten out of control.

Pregnancy usually indicates new beginnings! Some new idea, interest or project that you are thinking about or looking towards. Possibly you have the enthusiasm to go in anew direction and take on something you've never done before but you fear it might be more than you bargained for and you won't be able to follow through.

Simple analysis.

LillyBBBW · 04-07-2007, 06:43 AM

I've had both: dreams where I am smaller but still fat and one I dreamt I was way up in the 400's. The weights did not play a big role in the dream itself, it was merely incidental.

Tooz · 04-07-2007, 06:44 AM

My size isn't a factor in most of my dreams, but occasionally I will have a dream where I am a) gaining weight or b) a fair amount larger than I am in the concious world.

GoddessNoir · 04-07-2007, 07:36 AM

I *think* in my dreams I am just as I am because I don't feel differently so, I assume I am fat. I do recall having a few dreams where I was think but I noticed that I was thin.

I usually have really long hair (natural or locked) in my dreams if anyone cares to analyze that.

Do you dream yourself fat?

I had to actually sit back a minute and think about this answer. I dream myself as me, so I must dream myself as fat right? I guess I dont really pay attention. I'm so used to being fat that I dont notice myself as fat. Does that make sense??

I will often times dream myself as someone else. Men, women, children, even animals a couple of times. I will feel their feelings and wake up feeling not quite like myself when I have a dream like that. Takes me a minute to snap out of it. I dont think I've ever dreamed myself skinny though, at least not as myself. I've been a skinny someone else before...

I tend to be a very vivid dreamer. I mean the kind of dreams where you wake up saying to yourself, 'Did that really happen'. I remember several times when I woke crying, feeling the real grief and loss of a loved one's passing only to realize I had dreamt it. I also have had a few of the pregnancy dreams where upon waking I thought I should find my tummy hard and round(er). I'm always slightly sad to find my tummy is just regular fat and not "baby" fat. lol

Anyway, back to the topic at hand...My dream-self is almost always thin but Selma Hayek thin. I'm always myself in height, coloring, and personality but my figure is smaller yet still very curvy. I'm pretty sure this is because I still see that type of figure as the ideal. Not too skinny and not too fat. As I've become more accepting of myself I have had more realistic dreams where I am my fat self. However, I would say that nine times out of ten I'm thin in my dreams.

BigCutieCindy · 04-07-2007, 09:07 AM

I'm usually average sized in my dreams, though on very rare occasions I am fat. Also, I've experienced the body I saw in my dream as me was average sized but I just knew that I was fat (this has only happened a couple of times).

Strange how the mind works, eh?

loves2laugh · 04-07-2007, 09:14 AM

Usually in my dreams i am seeing things through my own eyes so i dont know what size i am. i dont ever remember having a dream where weight was an issue and now that i am thinking of it...i don't think there has ever been a mirror in any dream.
I did recently have a dream where my father was gay- he abandoned us when i was 11 so who knows what happened after that, but he was gay and a horticulturist. any idea what that means!?!?!?

TelescopeEyes · 04-07-2007, 09:33 AM

[quote=loves2laugh;403906]Usually in my dreams i am seeing things through my own eyes so i dont know what size i am.=QUOTE]

Yeah I have to agree with this one cuz usually I'm dreaming of other people or places.

Zandoz · 04-07-2007, 10:13 AM

Hmmmm...as someone else said, dreams are mainly through my eyes, so I'm not seeing my self one way or the other. But in all my dreams I am still able to get around and do things unhindered, so by implication maybe I'm not dreaming myself as fat.

Theatrmuse/Kara · 04-07-2007, 11:46 AM

Yeppers...............supersized in my dreams!
How about that???? Never thought about it, tho!
Hugs, Kara

Green Eyed Fairy · 04-07-2007, 11:50 AM

I'm usually "weightless" and fast moving in my dreams.........kind of like a fairy

I have had dreams (I don't dream often or even able to have a good recall of most of my dreams when I do) where I was naked- but not worried about being fat- I was trying to hide my nakedness out of modesty, not shame. I must have thought of myself as thin or simply chose to be free from that "worry" while asleep.

shaz260281 · 04-07-2007, 11:56 AM

i never see my self in my dreams i know that probably sounds kinda wierd but i dont think i have ever seen myself, i see all the other people and the stuff goin on but its like im lookin through my own actual eyes like in real life! i guess in my next dream i should find a mirror!

Violet_Beauregard · 04-07-2007, 01:27 PM

I never really noticed if I'm fat or thin in my dreams. I'm usually looking through my own eyes at everything around me, so I don't usually notice if I'm fat or thin. Hmmmm... GREAT question Lilly!

TheSadeianLinguist · 04-07-2007, 03:02 PM

I often dream from a narrator perspective and see my body.

I've had dreams of being fat and of being average and being thin.

BitsyAintMyName · 04-07-2007, 04:23 PM

Most of the time. Sometimes I have a shape similar to my older cousin, who's really a small BBW and just cute as a button. She has a smaller gut but more in the rear.

My butt is so flat.

I guess I wish I could transfer some of my tummy into my butt. It doesn't need much to fill it out. *lol*
