Today, yet again. my boyfriend told me I'm getting fat, even after I told him to stop and that it's affecting my mental health. I had an eating disorder previously, and now I'm thinking about going back to just eating an apple a day. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boyfriend sent me a text that said, "I can't be seen with you anymore. You're too fat." 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, dieting is making me depressed and I'm so hungry. I don't even care about losing weight, but my boyfriend is and he's doing a low fat diet with me for my health, so I'm going to do the low calorie thing with him. I also feel like I'm not doing well enough in the gym and it's hurting so bad. 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
Today, my friend, knowing my mental health is really bad right now, decided to yell out the fact I have an eating disorder, and how she never sees me eat ever, then started to talk about self-harm and how she would never do it despite what she has gone through. All while side-eyeing me when talking to other people. 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, my boyfriend told me I should stop talking about his major gambling problem because he still loves me even though I gained weight. Apparently that evens things out. FML
Today, my chunky boyfriend told me that he'd be less attracted to me if I gained weight. I have low self-esteem. FML
Today, I finally felt comfortable enough to admit to my partner that occasionally when feeling I'm depressed, I binge eat until my stomach hurts. His response? "We can't financially afford you doing that." I guess finances mean more to him than my mental health. FML
Today, my boyfriend encouragingly told me that he could tell I was losing weight, all because I had one roll fewer than usual on my stomach. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I know of a way you can lose a couple hundred pounds without altering your diet. Ditch the insensitive turd you call a boyfriend.

Ugh, scatophagia is an even worse eating disorder than anorexia.

No matter how thin you make a pancake, there's two sides. I'd be interested in both sides of this story.

My pancakes have four sides. People come from miles around to enjoy my tetrahedral treats!

I mean you obviously shouldnt go back to just eating an apple a day, but theres nothing wrong with staying healthy, maybe just exercise? and obviously if he's just being a dick then dump him, that being said without more info we don't know if hes being a dick about it or if him just bringing it up makes him a douche.

She means nothing but one apple a day.
Rydiel 11
yeah which i said would be unhealthy and suggested instead if she was having problems that exercise is a great option rather then only eating one apple

Exercise doesn’t make you lose weight. I’ve found that out after exercising 2 years and not losing a pound. Once I cut sugar and most carbs out of my diet (i still occasionally had some beer), it dropped off like a rock from a cliff. I lost 80lbs by changing my diet, and not a bit of exercise was done in that time.

He’s trying to undermine you in order to control you. This is psychological abuse. Dump him.

Yes you DO need to lose weight. Get rid of the dead weight that this this guy, thinking he can treat you like that. You deserve SO much better. You deserve to be happy, and have someone who appreciates you.
