blimp out
Overeat and swell
Blimp out means to overeat or gain weight rapidly, evoking the image of inflating like a blimp.
It usually describes a temporary state of gluttony rather than permanent weight gain: I totally blimped out over the holidays.
The phrase carries self-deprecating humor about losing control around food.
