I think this belongs here (bloating/stuffing for belly/bump)

If this is in the wrong place I'll move it. I would like to simulate with a food baby/bloated belly situation but I'm having trouble getting results. I've tried mentos and coke, water and gatorade, carbonated beverages as well as large meals (taco bell, pizza, box of red beans and rice) with lots of water and/or carbonated drinks. Am I missing something? If I do get any results they aren't very noticeable and don't last very long (maybe an hour at most). I'm kind of chunky does that make a difference? Anybody have any tips on this type of thing? I'm not interested in putting anything in my rear end or gaining long term. I just want to feel and be big and round. To be more firm than squishy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've had the most success with watermelon. I buy a big container and basically eat it until I'm in a little pain, last a while and makes my stomach nice and huge.

I'm a little surprised that carbonated drinks aren't getting you positive results as that's one of the 'go to' methods that I'm aware of, anyway. For me, any good-sized meal, plus desert and a few beers usually brings results. Especially over Christmas time as I eat the most (as I'm sure many of us do). However for me there's always, without fail, one major drawback to that. I can't experience or share my best belly bloating/expansion results because at this time I'm usually surrounded by family. 

I'm certainly a little more 'chunky' over the last few years than I have been, I must say. It's harder to get results simply because I'm carrying a little more of a 'fat layer' around the belly. I'm seriously contemplating losing a bit of weight over the coming months. 

In terms of lasting results? A couple of hours is about all I can achieve at best anyway, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. 

I haven't tried watermelon, but it's something I'll bear in mind.
