... Aunt Maggie!
Maggie was a home cook who loved to make the most dense, fattening meals for Emily's family whenever they came over. Her tastes in food were quite traditionally southern, consisting of a menu that wouldn't be out of place at your local Cracker Barrel. Once it came to light that Emily would be spending the entire summer there, she knew she was in for a treat!
Now, you may wonder how her prim-and-proper mother, strict as she was, would let young Emily spend the summer with such a woman who would no doubt make this skinny stick of a girl into a plushy blob by the end of the summer. The truth is, that Mother had no choice. She was simply too overburdened with work to watch Emily throughout the day, and so she needed her sister to look after her since she had nobody else to turn to.
This excited Emily endlessly! She would wake up every day to the smell of fresh baked biscuits and a ton of fried delicacies, followed by lunches and dinners that were equally as decadent. There wouldn't be a moment throughout any day in which Emily was less than stuffed to bursting, and slowly, yet ever more quickly, fattening more and more.

The day Emily arrived at Maggie's house, she, Veronica, and her mother and father were greeted with a gigantic, "healthy" meal (per the parent's request) consisting of fried catfish, honey ham, collard greens, mashed potatoes, and cornbread that had left everyone in attendance stuffed at the rafters! Emily had eaten so many calories, it was as if could feel her rather taut belly softening with chub where she sat.
Emily kept track of her gluttony that night, and chalked the calories at around 1,100. She knew that was a lot for her, even if this meal was light by Maggie's standards. Emily's goal was to work her way up to at least 5,000 calories per day, so she would gain around a pound of fat for every day she was there.
Ninety days of summer, ninety pounds of fat on her ninety pound frame. She wanted to double her weight, partly for pleasure, partly to see how shocked her mother was!
Now, on the morning of the day after that first meal, Emily decided she would step on the scale, and check her progress...
