That's the largest size graduation robes can be before they're legally a tent.Text version of the story, not in notepad++:#            Chunky Nerd - The Graduation

                             Now that you and Alison were dating, the workouts

 quickly fell by the wayside as Alison’s backside continued to expand. The changes to your body were minimal (probably because the weightlifting in the gym was replaced by lifting even heavier weights in the bedroom), but when her regular exercise tapered off, Alison’s weight gain went into overdrive.  With no gym, online classes, and finding love with her body, every last shackle on her unrepentant gluttony was undone, and your apartment became known for having a constant stream of food deliveries.

                             It was heaven, watching this cute little nerd eat herself into needing special furniture and mobility scooters, until you realized graduation was a month away. You brought it up with Alison, and she surprised you by saying she needed to walk across the stage and get her diploma. It was a family tradition, and she would not reconsider and use her scooter.

                             And so, you both went back to working out, helping her rebuild strength, as she refused to compromise her eating habits.  When you brought up it might be easier to slow down and eat less, she said, “If you can’t lose weight eating Taco Belle 5 times a day, then I’ll just get stronger.” which was hard to argue with.

                             Finally, it was time for graduation. Your seat was far away but it wasn’t hard to spot your girlfriend in a crowd. Barely covered by the largest graduation robes money can buy, with a shock of red hair, she looked like a titanic olive from a distance, and when they finally called her name and she stood up, a hush went through the crowd.

                             As she waddled to the steps leading to the stage, you clenched your hands with anxiety. You hadn’t practiced stairs without handrails! What if she loses her balance?

                             Alison must have been thinking the same thing, taking a long moment before climbing up each step with quick step followed by the other foot. When she finally made it on the stage you cheered, and several audience members applauded.  She stopped and breathlessly said something to the dean, probably to give herself a moment to catch her breath before she turned and waddled off stage and down a mercifully gentle ramp, the tip of her pale belly beginning to peek out of her academic muumuu.

                             Afterwards you saw her catching up with her family, them being proud but unable to fully hug her, and then taking pictures near some old-looking pillars. As you get close, she once again senses your stare, turns and locks eyes with you, smiling. This time you understand what she is thinking, and start heading over to them while she starts to introduce you, her boyfriend…
