Probably the size I was at 21. That would’ve been around 130kgs.
I have that issue now, getting into (and out of) the shower stall in the morning; I have to gently squeeze through so that my body, front and back, scraping both sides of the opening doesn't knock the door off its track.If it's Utopia, then big enough so I can stand in a doorway and my butt is against one side of the doorjamb and my belly is against the other side.

If I could I would love to gain weight and expand as big as possible if I eat a ton of food--and go back down or back up or change my proportions based on however I'm feeling. Basically shape-shifting and rubber powers lol.
In a sci-fi Utopia of limitless resources, I'd build a space station, a giant cylinder spinning to simulate gravity -- but how much 'gravity' you'd feel would vary with how far out you were in the cylinder. So you could start in the outer layer at something closer to earth levels, but gradually move inwards as you got bigger and bigger. Perhaps the very largest choosing to float in free-fall in the middle.In utopia I would live on the moon. 1/6th gravity brings some great possibilities. The doors would have to be very big and very round. No corners.
Sounds fabulous.

I recently read Ian McDonald trilogy - Luna and one of the stations was described like that. The guy was training to get back to earth after living his life on the moon so he started in the middle then progressed over many months to the edges. Still, the trip to earth nearly killed him.In a sci-fi Utopia of limitless resources, I'd build a space station, a giant cylinder spinning to simulate gravity -- but how much 'gravity' you'd feel would vary with how far out you were in the cylinder.

I was all the time thinking about how it would feel to be really fat on the moon. You can be 600 pounds and still your body will feel like 100 pounds on earth. Wouldn't gain weight on purpose be actually beneficial on the moon? Wouldn't an Earther body (Johny Moonbeam) benefit from the added mass?
And because of the low gravity, the fat will all grow, I assume, more spherical and be less concerned with meeting the floor. So to have a belly to the knees would be a bit hard to achieve even with 600 pounds and I assume butts will just grow really bubbly and far behind. Also one may have a problem looking around one's gigantic globular boobs floating in one's face. Doors will need to be much wider with the fat spreading to the sides. I wish we live in the future, I would be the first one in line to try the hypothesis.
Of course, low gravity doesn't change your mass. Meaning it still takes effort to get moving, and to stop moving, or to change direction. Being super fat on the moon would require being careful about giving yourself time and distance to make those adjustments! (but that would also be part of the fun, no doubt).
And yes, I've sometimes wondered if extra mass would help keep up bone density in lower gravity? I'd mentioned this idea on here one time and somebody explained why it probably wouldn't, but that was years ago (don't remember the thread), and I don't know how solid their science was. In other words, I'll still imagine that of course when you move to the moon you are encouraged to put on a lot of weight, for your health![]()
