Today, after gaining all the weight back that I had lost after my first marriage, I realized that the only thing that fits me now is my wedding ring. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, I noticed I'd lost my wedding ring after returning home from a long, tiring day of painting our newly purchased home. After driving back and forth to the house for more than an hour to go looking for it, I found it tucked away in my back pocket. FML
Today, I'd finally reached my goal weight. I went into the office where my husband was, to show him the new size 8 jeans I'd bought. He responded with "I wouldn't buy any more clothes, you'll be putting the weight back on again soon." FML
Today, I realized that I haven’t lost weight. All my clothes have just stretched to fit. FML
Today, I noticed that I have gained enough weight to give me back boobs. FML
Today, I had to sell my wedding ring to help me pay for my divorce. FML
Today, despite been married for less than two days, my husband has managed to lose his wedding ring. 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, after months of dieting, I finally reached my goal weight. Excitedly I told my boyfriend, who gave me a beautiful dress as an early Christmas present. It was a size too small. FML
Today, I discovered that I can fit back into the clothes I wore in High School. I was proud of this until my husband told me that I look like a stuffed sausage in them. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You should use this as incentive to lose the weight you gained.

Sell your old wedding ring and buy a gym membership, OP! Lift weights and follow a strict, healthy diet rich in unprocessed fruits and vegetables. You'll lose the weight again and promote healthy habits to keep the weight off in the process :)

From the way it reads, she lost all the weight after her first marriage, gained it back and also remarried. I don't think she'd want to sell her ring from her new marriage. But I do agree with the rest of your comment.

I don't really see the "married again" part. It sounds like OP lost all this weight after her first marriage, has since gained it back and is now again the size she was during her first marriage. That's why the ring still fits. It's pretty depressing, she probably thought all that extra weight was because of the first marriage (stress, financial issues, etc.), this was "confirmed" when she lost weight at the divorce, and now, since it's gained back, she could be processing that what made her overweight was no one but herself. Chin up, OP, I'm fat and happy! Learn to love yourself, and you'll find someone who loves you back!

That's a good possibility. I just don't see why they would specify first marriage unless there was a second.

But love is so hard to find. I've given up hope.

Losing weight is hard, but keeping it off is sometimes even harder. Hopefully you at least enjoyed yourself chunking up again op, and good luck if you try to lose again.

You lost it once, you can lose it again.

I dutch we have a saying: "Ieder pondje gaat door het mondje." Meaning: Every pound goes through your mouth. I'd say try to eat less and move more, you used to be thin so you can do it!

Well, at least you won't have to walk around *totally* naked! Although the police will think you're naked enough to arrest.

If anything, you shouldn't worry about the ring... The sweat will make it fit.

If you're worried about being clothed, just hang out at the nude beach all day...
