blimped
Puffed out greatly
Blimped describes becoming noticeably overweight or swollen, evoking the rounded shape of a blimp airship: I really blimped out over the holidays.
The word is informal and mildly unflattering.
In film production, blimped refers to a camera enclosed in a soundproof housing to muffle mechanical noise during filming.
