Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I walked downstairs in a new outfit, after dieting for 3 months, and losing just over 20 pounds. My mom took one look at me and said "You'd better keep going." FML
Today, I told my mom I lost 30 pounds because of an eating disorder. She told me to keep up the good work. FML
Today, my aunt said that it looked like I lost some weight. I was pleased with this, since I've been trying to lose some. My mom, for some reason, thought it was insulting. She pulled me to aside to assure me that I most definitely don't look any skinnier. FML
Today, I complimented my mom with "Hey, I think you lost some weight." She replied with "Yeah, I think you found it." FML
Today, when my mother-in-law told me I was losing weight, my husband started laughing. FML
Today, I was showing my step-dad old photos of the family. We got to a picture of me and I mentioned how much weight I've lost. He muttered, "Heh, fat AND blind". FML
Today, I went to my parents' house. I recently lost about 30 lbs. My mom hugged me and said, "Aww, you're not my chubby baby girl anymore." She then said she wished I were still fat because she missed it. She's the reason I lost the weight; she used to tease and taunt me. Thanks Mom. FML
Today, after weeks, I've finally reached my goal and lost 10 lbs. My sister got jealous about me losing weight, and told my parents and coworkers that I'm anorexic. Hello, intervention. 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
Today, I was tying my hair up when my dad rubbed my stomach and asked how his grandchild was doing. He knows I'm not pregnant and that I've been trying really hard to lose weight. FML

That's so good! Congratulations to you. It's hard work- (I've currently lost 42 kilos) but it's worth it in the long run. I wouldn't worry about the comment. Just be proud of what you have achieved so far.

Keep your head up, fight the good fight, and don't let assholes get to you. You can do it.

So long as people keep believing that losing weight is a sure sign of health, beauty, and happiness, shitty comments like that are going to keep bringing them down :(

My adopted dad told me to go **** myself yesterday so yeah. I'm sorry your dad is a dick. EDIT: I'm glad you've lost 15 pounds though. It doesn't matter what he thinks, you lose the amount of weight until you are happy with your body. Keep your head OP.

Keep up your hard work. It doesn't matter what others think. What matters is how you feel about yourself at the end of the day. ?
