Today, I was telling my boyfriend about how self conscious I am and how I obsess about my weight. He said, "Don't be ridiculous, you don't need to lose THAT much weight." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I was talking to my boyfriend about how I'm self conscious about my weight. He looks at me and says, "Don't worry babe, I've always been kind of a chubby chaser." FML
Roll with it
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 told my boyfriend that I gained a few pounds and thought I looked fat. He replied that I looked the same and that I shouldn't worry because he likes fat girls. I never thought I was fat before this. FML
Charming
Today, my chunky boyfriend told me that he'd be less attracted to me if I gained weight. I have low self-esteem. FML
Worst argument ever
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, feeling confident, I asked my boyfriend what he thought of my new body, since I had lost 16 kilos over the past month. He told me that he missed the old me and wanted me to gain weight again. My boyfriend was the one that encouraged me to lose weight in the first place. FML
Food fight
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, I went to the doctor to talk about my depression and low self-esteem. He told me that I shouldn't think of myself as a fat pig for being overweight. I don't think that and I'm NOT overweight. 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
Supportive
Today, my very handsome, fit, Russian boyfriend tried to make me feel better about being a little overweight by telling me, "It's okay, you're American, everyone expects you to be fat." FML

Wow. There's a lot of rude people on FML. No need to call her "fatty" or "lil piggy". :(

Are the comments to this FML making anyone else lose faith in humanity? It's really starting to scare me that I may end up with a boyfriend who thinks it's totally fine to tell me that I need to lose weight. :

OOooohh!! I'll be constructive for a change (er, actually, following the trend I set in #76) and offer you some practical advice! 1) stay like you are and you'll never have that problem -or- 2) do get fat, but find a guy who's into BBW.

The fact that you're obviously a troll, but you're being sizeist, is kinda proving my point. :)

274 some people do NEED to lose weight, people who are very overweight need to lose weight. If a woman is 5'3" and 300 pounds she does NEED to lose weight, for the sake of her health.

And you deduced that the OP is 300 pounds how? It's possibly to be healthy no matter what your weight is. Some people can weight 300 pounds and be healthier than their 100-pound friends. It really depends on the specific person and what weight their body is naturally supposed to be at.

True. I know a guy who is about 5'9" and weighs upwards of 220 (possibly even 250) pounds, which technically makes him overweight, right? But he's a football coach, works at a gym, lifts every day, and has no more than 5% body fat. I, on the other hand, am 5'2", weigh about 100 pounds, and am borderline underweight, yet I am incredibly out of shape, have no stamina, and eat way more junk food than I am supposed to. (Yes, I know, start running and eating salad...the problem being that it'd be hard to do that and not lose weight, which would be a very bad thing.) Who's healthier? Clearly him, by FAR.

I sincerely don't get why the OP's boyfriend is an asshole. What kind way was there of putting this? I would seriously like to know. People on this site would say 5000 "Dump his ass" comments if a guy sneezed wrong.

maybe it's time to take a hint. if your subconscious about your weight you probably need to loose some.

If you're subconscious...? I think you mean self conscious...
