Today, even after loving him unconditionally, my originally 340 pound morbidly obese husband, who within the past two years lost almost 200 pounds, left me because now, he "can do so much better". FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, after my ex helped me drop over a hundred pounds, I broke up with him because I looked and felt so much better, and knew I could do better. Turns out he was the only thing keeping me slim, as I've put back on over twenty pounds. I asked him to take me back and he told me to fuck off. FML
Today, I learned that my husband is attracted to obese, unhealthy women after celebrating my weight loss of 175lbs and improving my overall health. FML
Today, after supporting my girlfriend for over a year in her endeavour to lose weight, exercise more, and eat better, my now-slender girlfriend dumped me, because she's found someone "better" than me. FML
Today, I officially completed my weight loss journey, only for my wife, who'd previously threatened to divorce me if I didn't lose weight, to tell me that she realized she liked me better when I was fat and that "you don't know what you have until it's gone." FML
Today, my boyfriend let me know that when we met, he wouldn't have even talked to me if I was as fat as I am now. But lucky for me, he stays with me because, "there's love or something." FML
Today, my girlfriend dumped me because I've recently become serious about getting fit, and have lost nearly 84 pounds. Apparently, when I was fat, I made her look smaller in comparison. When I got slimmer, she insisted I either gain the weight back or she'd leave. So she did. FML
Today, after losing twenty pounds to please my husband, the only comment I received was, "At least now only your personality sucks." FML
Today, my boyfriend sent me a text that said, "I can't be seen with you anymore. You're too fat." FML
Today, it's my sixth month of working out 5 days a week, watching what I eat while my family eats like kings, and only losing 2lbs. It's also the day husband said he misses my 20 year-old body and no longer finds me attractive, but that's okay because he "loves me anyways and it's good to know where we stand." FML
Today, my fiancé and I had a fight because he wouldn't let me get what I wanted to eat, even though it was my money. He said, "It's way too many calories. I'm supposed to help you lose weight." When I pointed out that I had given up a month ago, he looked at me and said, "Yeah, I can tell." FML

Wait so he only weighs 140 pounds now? God he must have a lot of extra skin hanging off him that no one would want him.

Skin only has so much give. With that amount of weight, he had to have gotten skin removed or it would be so heavy, it would physically hurt him.

Look at it this way; you've lost 340lbs of a worthless husband, but you've gained the entire world in his place.

And I'm sure you could work it so you get the house, kids, car, and child support! He may think he can do better, but try to make him go broke getting there.

I am so sorry you had to experience that, being betrayed by the ones you love is so painful. I wish you all the best in getting back on your feet and finding a man worth your love and devotion. You should feel proud of yourself, you sound like a very genuine and caring person, there are too few of you in the world.

You deserve it - but in this case that is a blessing because you deserve someone more worthy.

You can and will do so much better. find the person you are OP, Without that scumbag in your life anymore. it will take time as you clearly loved him but you will move on eventually, good luck OP, You can do it. we all believe in you!

I feel bad for the OP, but this isn't uncommon. When someone makes a significant change in health and life style it isn't unusual for them to leave their partner.

Especially if their partner doesn't make the change with them. Not saying OP deserves it or wasn't supportive or anything

Exactly,as someone said above they knew of a situation where staying with the person would've gotten them back to their old habits. I had an old roommate who started becoming much more health conscious( cutting back on smoking/ drinking) and started jogging. He wanted the gf to join him, but she sat around watching tv and eating a lot of junk food. They ended bc he was making a change. It is possible the OP's husband wanted them to share the same lifestyle. I'm not saying the OP wasn't supportive or deserved it, but it does happen some for purely selfish reasons, but a fair amount of the time it isn't.

It's cool that you're trying to justify the husband by these stories. Except you forgot the part where the husband proved he was a douche with the "I can do so much better" quote. I'm also pretty sure married couples are also supposed to be able to survive something as petty as new lifestyle choices, so D- for trying.
julianna5782 12
losing half your body weight is a "petty" change to you, huh? she said that he said he "could do better". nowhere did OP say he said he could do better for a wife. maybe he meant do better for a lifestyle of better living ie more healthy or not slipping into old habits by a "supportive" (maybe enabling?) wife. maybe he is a douchenozzle. maybe he did it to save his health. not enough info to demonize either.
