Today, I was food shamed by my boyfriend in front of an entire restaurant and his parents because my meal cost more than his. His mom chimed in saying her meal usually costs more than his step dad's too and not to be upset. I'm 8 months pregnant, of course mine costs more. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I asked my boyfriend to help me with groceries, since the last of my money went to last week's groceries. His response was to start a fight, then tell me it's my fault my daughter acts the way she does, which is when he finally got me to break down and cry. I'm pregnant with his kid, and I also pay 90% of our bills. FML
Today, I went out to eat with a group of couples and my boyfriend. All my friends boyfriends paid for them. Mine didn't, and said that I should order off the diet menu. FML
Today, I was invited to my boyfriend's house for dinner for the first time. His mom made a fantastic dinner, so I showed my appreciation by eating the lot. Apparently I was overdoing it because when I looked up everyone was staring. His dad muttered, "Slow the hell down." FML
Today, while having dinner with my boyfriend's family, his mom told me that it looks like I've gained quite some weight. When my boyfriend told her that this was a rude thing to say, she said it wasn't rude, just the truth. FML
Today, I went to eat with my girlfriend, her parents and my mother. My mother complained about every aspect of the service. When I told her she needed to assert herself, she took her pocketbook and hit me over the head. The whole restaurant stared at us while she yelled "Is that assertive enough?" FML
Today, I asked my mom if she could include mashed potatoes and gravy with dinner. She then went on to yell at me about my "unhealthy eating habits" and how I've "gained a lot of weight in the past few months". I'm pregnant. FML
Today, at the restaurant I work at, my own mom refused to give a tip and complained to my boss. FML
Today, my boyfriend called my mother stupid and angrily argued with her at a family dinner. Why? We have a long-running family joke that "Vegan food doesn't contain calories," and my boyfriend thought my mum said it seriously, and was therefore a moron. FML
Today, I'm 8 months pregnant and still waitressing at a local restaurant. There were only 3 of us serving today and things were hectic. One guy bitched me out, saying "Maybe if you lost some weight you'd walk a little faster!" because I wasn't fast enough with his soup. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend to stop criticizing my son for his table manners. He said, "It's man things, you wouldn't understand." He acted surprised when I blew my top and told him to leave. FML

Pregnant or not who gives a ****?! Unless you ordered $100 food which I doubt. My meals always end up cheaper because most of the time the others order steak or something and I just get what I like which works out cheaper.

Could mean that you have a better taste in food than him too.

You know your not supposed to eat for 2 right? You will never get your body back if you do. Sounds like a lame excuse to me. Ask your doctor.

I've been food shamed before and it's awful. Who cares what you ate? plus you're eating for two! on a more positive note, at least his mother was on your side! Also congratulations on the baby, OP! :)

Your food costing more because you're pregnant isn't exactly an obvious assumption. Could've just ordered something more expensive.

Just say, "What are you going to do when you have to pay about $30 a week for baby formula? Will that be too expensive for you too??"

Oh boy....you're feeding HIS parasite of course you're hungry. He's a dick for pointing it out though. When I was 8months pregnant I'd have eaten ANYTHING that didn't eat me first JUST SAYIN....

"HIS parasite"?? Are you serious? If it's only his parasite I guess she shouldn't get to have a say in abortion issues either huh? You know, since it's his parasite and all... ******* idiot

I'm so happy for your children.

sarcasim. maybe OP was quoting the insensitive prick she allowed to impregnate her.... either way DONT make someone feel bad for eating. That's an easy ticket to eating disorderville and a woman who's having a baby doesn't need that doubt planted on top of the other issues shell inevitably have with herself after baby's born. He's a jerk and shouldn't have said anything in front of others EVEN IF HE WAS MAD SHE ORDERED TOO MUCH?
