Today, while at my mom’s house, my mom told me that I need to seriously curb my food intake. Then I went to my dad’s house and he told me I need to gain weight. I can’t win here. FML

Today, my parents yelled at me for ordering too much fast food. The only reason I’m doing it is because there isn’t any food in the house. Not only that but I’m also trying to gain weight. FML

Today, my mum was saying she needs to gain weight because she was underweight according to her doctor. She then said she's going to eat like me in order to gain more weight. FML

Today, I got told I was too fat and needed to stop eating, because I need to lose weight. I was then given a full plate of food and had to eat it all. FML

Today, my parents decided to go on a diet. This would be perfectly fine if they didn’t insist I go on one too. I weigh less than 90 pounds and am underweight for my height. FML

Today, I'm staying with my mother for a week. Every time I eat something, she tells me that it's "swimsuit season" and that I need to eat less. Every time I say I'm not hungry, she panics and insists I have an eating disorder. I can't win. FML

Today, after I skipped dessert for the third day in a row, my mom cornered me and accused me of being anorexic. I'm actually not far off being clinically obese and I'm just trying to diet, but nothing I say will convince her. She wants me to see a psychiatrist about a disorder I don't even have. FML

Today, I found out my mother-in-law is trying to force me to lose weight, even though I am trying, and have a medical condition. FML

Today, my mom asked me if I had an eating problem because I've been eating less. I only started eating less because she told me I ate too much. FML

Tell them to keep their opinions to themselves, and you'll decide if you're too thin/fat.

You got it backwards. Mom said to lose weight, Dad said to gain it.

Your mom want you to gain weight and your dad want you to lose weight. No disrespect, you think your dad left your mom because she gained weight? 🤔

I corrected my post, but it didn't show it. But I found out after I read again.

Maybe talk to your doctor and find out what’s best for you?

Why is a doctor necessary there? Or are you just one of those people who go to a doctor after even sneezing a little? In that case i suggest you go to therapy, hypochondria is a mental problem.

Have you heard of a physical or a checkup? You’re supposed to have them yearly. And you talk to your doctor about weight problems and little things that didn’t require their own appointment, idiot.

Lose weight and wear a fat suit when you go to your dad’s house. (If there were such a thing as a skinny suit, I’d suggest you fatten up and wear it to your Mom’s house. That’d be the funner option.)
