Today, my fitness trainer husband told me that if I could not make the commitment to stay thin, he could not make the commitment to stay with me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, during our wedding, my new husband said that he’d divorce me if I “let myself go.” Later, he couldn’t understand why I'd got upset and told me, “Why are you so worked up for? If you don’t want that to happen, just eat healthy and exercise daily, it's not that hard.” FML
Today, my new husband told me, “If you ever get comfortable during the marriage I’m leaving. So I’m getting you a gym membership to keep that body in check.” When I protested, he told me, “How would you feel if I packed pounds and look like Jabba The Hutt?” My silence was punctuated by an “Exactly.” FML
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 realized I agreed to go to the gym with my fiancé after being on my feet at work all day because he wants to get fit, but he will not help me remodel the house I’m working on so we can have a bigger place to live, because he doesn’t feel like it. I don’t want or need to go to the gym. FML
Today, my personal trainer fired me. Why? Because I wanted to focus on strength training, not weight loss, and refused to track my carb intake or fasting hours or "hold off on carbs til the optimal time of day." Nice to know I'm not allowed to be satisfied with my own weight. FML
Today, I was proposed to, under the condition that I "get thin" first. FML
Today, my girlfriend dumped me because I've recently become serious about getting fit, and have lost nearly 84 pounds. Apparently, when I was fat, I made her look smaller in comparison. When I got slimmer, she insisted I either gain the weight back or she'd leave. So she did. FML
Today, my boyfriend sent me a text that said, "I can't be seen with you anymore. You're too fat." FML
Today, as punishment for going through my boyfriend’s phone and finding evidence of him cheating, he dropped me off at the gym and made me stay there for an hour to workout. As soon as I get to a “desirable physique” he’ll dump the other woman. If I don’t do it, he’ll kick me out of our apartment. FML
Today, my wife tried to forbid me from going to the gym anymore because in public she looks fat stood next to me and it’s embarrassing. She picked me up from the gym yesterday and saw all the “thin gym sluts” I prefer to spend my time with instead of her. God, I’m sick of her lazy jealous BS. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Awwwww. I struggle with weight issues too, so I feel for you, but that is not cool of your husband. Tons of people are gonna be on here telling you to " divorce his ass" but don't.

Jokes aside, my advice would be this: Talk to your doctor. See if you are at an acceptable weight, or whether your health is/is going to suffer for your weight. If you are healthy, divorce. Your husband is just a shallow asshole. If you are not or are borderline, try to lose the weight. He has your health in mind when he says those things.

would you want to spend your entire life having sex with one person who you aren't attracted to? i think not.

What did you expect, marrying a FITNESS TRAINER? It's his job and his life, why would he want to stay with somebody who he has to watch get unhealthy? Being overweight increases all sorts of health risks, which I'm sure he knows, and it would be extremely painful to watch somebody you love doing that to themselves.

My husband is a personal trainer, and I knew when I married him that he expected me to stay in shape. He doesn't expect me to be perfect and muscle woman or anything, but he does expect me to be healthy. You had to have known when you married him that he cared about you being healthy. However, my husband would offer to help me if he thought I wasn't as healthy as I need to be, he wouldn't say he would leave me. I don't know your full situation, but I think your husband should have approached things differently but I also don't think his comment was grounds for divorce.

Those who matter don't mind, and those who mind don't matter. Let him leave, then take him to court for alimony.

Ask him if he could make the commitment to get you some of those yummy steroids he's been injecting. Then tell him if he can't make the commitment to get his balls back to a normal size so he can give you children, you can't make the commitment to not ram those tiny nuts down his throat.

I guess he's not going to stick with you through "thick and thin," then.
