Weight loss with a sci-fi/supernatural twist

[Brandnewbuddy]

Still working on losing weight (25lbs now!) anywho, got me thinking about stories about weight loss programs with a twist. The program will make you burn fat fast…but there’s something they aren’t telling you.

For example:
Morbidly obese guy finds a program which promises to instantly get him down to 10% BMI. He signs a release, procedure is done and he goes on his way, thinner than ever. A month or two later, he’s approached by some gorgeous women who talk him into a threesome. It goes wonderfully. They seem aware of his every want and need.

…and then they tie him up and start force feeding him. See, they were born from his fat and now they want a new sister.

Another example: MC is given an injection and not only does the weight start coming off, but their energy is higher than ever. As pounds are shed off, they get an increase in libido and they start becoming more and more attractive to other people.

…what they find out though is that they have an alien parasite in them. It stays with a host and continues to improve then but at a higher and higher caloric cost, eventually killing the host. Scientists were hoping to see how far it could advance someone and decided to use MC to find out.

As somebody who has been over 500lbs, dropped to under 370, only to have medical issues and then injuries cause me to go back up (but still under 500, at least!), I could get into this from experience!

I ended up hospitalized with an abscess and diabetic ketoacidosis in ‘24, was diagnosed as Type 2 diabetic and now have to take insulin twice a day.
Once I was healed up enough from the abscess to go back to the gym I did and found I was picking up strength more easily than I was before I was hospitalized and was trying to to figure out how that was possible until I remember reading something about 30 years ago on how that insulin can be used to improve nutrients getting into muscle tissue post workout and improving the muscle’s ability to repair themselves. Once that happened, I figured, “well, when in Rome?!” planning on taking advantage of that last year until I slipped and got hurt last winter, causing issues getting into the gym and overall lack of interest in going.
This year, especially since I will be turning 50, I am trying to make my time in the gym what last year should have been, but need to get a blood work up done and haven’t due to needing to take time off work. Luckily that won’t be a problem with my change is shifts at work that is just now happening that should allow for that to happen.

I got to thinking about it in the last several days, since that insulin I now have to take, being diabetic, has worked out to also be like a PED, what if I get that work up done and they find that I’m also dealing with Low-T and end up getting prescribed TRT (testosterone replacement) and/or maybe an estrogen blocker too?! The last thing I need right now is to turn into a horny muscle bear

I like this one. I once wrote out an idea with similar threads, though it was darker in the end. On short term it does wonders. The body removes most barriers to improvement. In an abundant world, you don't need to shrink your muscles when they're not in use. The parasite makes the muscles grow, betters the immune system, improves the brain. You're more motivated, full of energy, able to learn at a faster rate. It is amazing. You'll be better liked and more successful, allowing the parasite more chances to spread.

Why is it a parasite and not a symbiote? Because many restrictions are there for a reason. Soms things in the body start to run out or get damaged. Suddenly they'll run into a wall. Think burn out. The problem is that you can't stop. The parasite makes you redline yourself continuously until you drop dead. The burn out can start in a month, or a decade, but it will come...

Maybe the scientists that are trying it out know this can be the case, and try it out anyway. If they can cap it, or make it stable, it would be a great boon to society. Full of energy and motivation. This person is just a guinea pig that could get lucky. They might get it right this time...

Going in a different direction, for a long time I've had the idea of a man with mind control powers who likes having sex with bbws and chubby women as much as he does thin women. He opens a weight loss clinic and becomes wildly successful because he can modify women's minds to curb their appetite, bad eating habits and get them eating and exercising to lose weight. He gets to have sex with any of them he chooses - when they are overweight, losing weight and when they hit their goal weight. All kinds of shenanigans ensue - threesomes, submissives, BDSM etc. He is so successful he can even fuck celebrities who come to him because they need to lose 10 pounds. Since he can control their minds, he gets all the dirty nasty thoughts they have. The meek looking chubby school teacher who's a major sub and has a humiliation kink. The obnoxiously religious church goer who is secretly an anal freak, the celebrity who is secretly bi and loves FFM threesomes . . .

Well, there is that Doctor Who episode, where folks’ adipose tissue just up and leaves…

 

[Carnevil9]

Our Main Character discovers that he has a very unusual capability: whenever he sleeps with a woman, she loses ten pounds! (or maybe something like 10% of her body fat). This could be for sci-fi reasons (genetic manipulations, alien implants) or strictly fantasy (blessed or cursed by a supernatural entity) or whatever. Before long, our hero is the most popular guy in town.

Of course, the women who want him the most are grossly overweight, and he's really not into that, so it's kind of a mixed blessing. But then he discovers that sorority girls and cheerleaders at the local college ALWAYS think they are fat, even when they aren't. So he starts hanging out at the Greek bars near campus, and gets all the nice slender tail that he can handle.

Kinda reminds me of a story I read some years back where a guy some how was able to cause breast growth in women if they blew him. The local sorority figured it out, kinda trapped him, and started using him as their own personal enhancer. Well, one girl, who was in the heavy side discovered that not only did her girls get bigger, but she also slimmed down elsewhere, indicating that the extra flesh and fat going to her breasts came from elsewhere on her body, and she had a lot to redistribute and took advantage of that, and him, giving her a spectacular figure!

The other girls took notice and would have his a parties where they pigged it and blew him knowing what ever they ate was Going to their chests vs waists.

The whole ozempic thing going on right now and and my wife and my weigt loss journey (40+ for me and 65+ for her since last March) makes this interesting to me.
Perhaps a new drug that somehow increases your metabolism and the more weight you lose, the better it works until your metabolism is like it was when you were 18. The problem is that it also reverts you to the hormone levels of someone the same age, and begins acting like an aphrodisiac.

Funny thing, that's not even fanciful, just exaggerated. Adiposity does have a negative impact on libido, as it does on everything else, so losing fat can certainly act as a (long term) aphrodisiac.

Really, the only thing that's dubious in your idea is perpetuating the myth that metabolism slows down with age Otherwise it's not really sci-fi/supernatural/fictitious at all.

Worse yet, you get your teenage acne back!
