This is something that Guy says to Millie when he is
trying to describe why he does not feel contented. I believe that it is somewhat of a
metaphor. He is doing two things. First, he is saying that he does not feel content
and comfortable. Second, I think he feels like he is more weighed down by things than
he had been not too long ago.
When you start to gain
weight, you don't really feel comfortable. If you are aware of the weight gain, you
feel more sluggish and your clothes don't fit and such. This would make you feel
discontented and upset. I think Guy feels this way.
More
metaphorically, I think that Guy feels weighed down emotionally. He is starting to care
about things he didn't care about before. He is starting to think. The thoughts he has
are pressing down on him in a way that he has not experienced before. I think that
this, too, makes him feel fat.
