Today, I decided to start a new and healthy diet. When I came home from my run this morning, my family decided to show their support by buying takeaway food. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I told my parents that I was going on a diet to lose weight and I wanted their support. They brought home donuts and pizza for dinner. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I started our diet. After a long day of being held accountable for every calorie I ate, I went home to sneak a snack. My boyfriend came over to surprise me, and found me on the couch shoveling left-over Indian food into my mouth. FML
Today, I told my mom I was finally going on a diet. She let me know how proud she is of me fighting temptation, by making my favorite cookies and dinner. FML
Today, I started my new health kick with granola for breakfast, salad for lunch, and hitting the gym after work. I was so proud of myself, until I couldn’t take it anymore and binged at McDonald’s. My health kick lasted 11 hours. FML
Today, I’m trying to be healthy. My friends suggested I keep junk food out of the house so I don’t crave it. Yeah, that didn’t work. My car wouldn’t start so I actually made the four-mile walk to the nearest grocery store to get junk food. FML
Today, I decided to eat healthier. I started with making 2 eggs and burning down whole kitchen. FML
Today, I decided to go on a diet to lose some weight before summer. This was followed by the arrival of a giant parcel full of candy from my mother. FML
Today, I decided to start eating healthier, so I had fruit and yoghurt for breakfast and a chicken salad for lunch. My stomach violently rejected both meals in a fountain of vomit. I later ate a giant McDonald’s meal with no issue, and felt loads better. 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, after 3 months of my man claiming he's going to start eating better "next week", he finally went on a diet. What changed? I started eating healthy while trying for a baby. He is "supporting me" by getting me to do extra meal prep for him too. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Get used to it-certain people in your life will try to sabotage your diet. Sad but true.

While I agree that your life sucks because you had to endure the food your family got that wasn't within your diet. I have to say you deserve it because its your diet, not theirs. You are the one who is making lifestyle changes, not them. You have no reason to assume they'd make the same changes to support you. Having their support might be nice, but again, it's your issue and your diet not theirs.

You ought to try what I'm on: the Seafood Diet -- when I see food, I eat it!

Now you can practice resistance! Once you can resist bad foods, you'll be good to go! But sorry your family tempted you OP:(

oh dear is someone speaking a different way to you? finding hard to deal with are you? everyone in the UK calls it takeway and although it says OP is from the US they could be from a British family or be an Anglophile hence the use of British venacular.

So what? It's not their diet and exercise regime, they can do what they want.
