Today, my dad suggested that as an alternative to buying me new school clothes that actually fit, I should just join the swim team, lose some weight, and wear my stuff from last year. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my mother threatened me if I keep wearing yoga pants to school, she's going to have my dad pick me up in a speedo. FML
Today, after losing 20 pounds, I decided to purchase new clothes. All of the clothes at the store were still too small for me. FML
Today, the school called my dad telling him they want to put me on a diet, because they're worried about my weight. FML
Today, I was talking to my parents about feeling insecure with my "beach body" as Spring Break keeps getting closer and closer. My dad warned me by saying, "Don't wear a gray swimsuit. People will try to roll you back into the ocean". FML
Today, it's my birthday. My mom got me a gym membership and a bunch of clothes that are a few sizes too small. FML
Today, my boyfriend suggested I try on some old clothes, after weeks of eating better and exercising. The good news: they fit again, and are even a little bit loose. The bad news: somehow, I look fatter now than I did before I started trying to lose weight. FML
Today, I told my mom I wanted to try out for the track team. Her exact words were "good luck, fatty". FML
Today, I took the kids to the pool. I'm short and 20lbs overweight but they talked me into it and I put on a swimsuit for the first time in 10 years. As soon as we got there, a girl my height but a good 150lbs heavier said, "It's so nice to see another big girl in a two-piece!" FML
Today, my seven-year-old told me to lose weight. Her reason? There's a family fun day coming up at her school and she is embarrassed. FML
Today, my mom decided to do something new and borrowed some of my clothes. She's currently wearing a very small pair of short shorts and a very tight tank top. We're going to a very prestigious golf course and she won't change. FML

A better and more practical plan would be to buy clothes at least two sizes larger than you are right now, so you can eat your way into them. Bon apetit!

OP, either he's wrong, or very right. If you're overweight, work out so you'll feel and look better! If you've merely -grown- then your dad is just being plain mean. I went from a 0 to a 4 in about two years. Of course, I'm not fat. I just grew! So I'd understand if that's what happened for you.

Both disrespectful and cheap. I mean, at least suggest soccer or track! Cardio is the key here, you foolish father!!!

Swimming is highly dependent on cardio too. More so than most other sports, actually.
Stylin_Since_97 10
however in addition to losing fat through cardio workout on land, you also sweat more than in swimming which flushes much more excess fluid in your system. Therefore you lose more weight overall in cardio sports on land as opposed to swimming. However, swimming does build more muscle mass, but then again that just adds weight.

It doesn't add weight at all I used to be a little chubby then I joined the swim team and now I'm stronger than anyone in my class and faster

ORRRRR, instead of complaining about it on the site she could have gotten a job for the summer, done odd and end things for people living around her, seriously no matter what the situation something could have fixed the problem. It's not like she just woke up a week before school and none of her dang clothes fit... End. Of. Story.

Why the hell should your dad buy your clothes? Buy your own clothes and stop sponging off your parents you spoilt fat bitch

That was uncalled for!! Just because your parents didn't take care of you when you were a child, you shouldn't take it out on OP.

I buy back to school clothes simply because my tastes change. I don't ever really lose or gain weight. I just don't like my clothes from last year, lol.
