Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Backhanded
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

Target goals
Today, I officially completed my weight loss journey, only for my wife, who'd previously threatened to divorce me if I didn't lose weight, to tell me that she realized she liked me better when I was fat and that "you don't know what you have until it's gone." FML

Classic Mom moment
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

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

Bodyshaming ain't cool
Today, I was video chatting with my dad. He handed the phone to his wife, whose first words out of her mouth were, "Why are you getting so skinny?" This was also the same woman whose first words out of her mouth when they came to visit us 3 years ago was how much weight I've gained. FML

Chubby life
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

Shouldnt it be your mother-in-law laughing at you rather than your husband?

Why would she compliment OP then laugh at her?

Not all mother-in-laws are rude to the wives. Lots have fantastic relationships.

Be sure and tell your mother-in-law that she's really not very funny. Your husband was just being nice.

...What? You DO realize that it was the husband that laughed at the thought of OP losing weight and the mother-in-law was the one being nice, right?

Oh no! Dear me, I guess I should've read the FML a little more thoroughly and thought it all through before posting. Good thing I didn't post it like that on purpose, otherwise your comment would be rather unnecessary.

lol i agree hes a complete dick, but that doesnt work on everyone. xD thats more of a stereotype. like saying women should be chained to the stove, with just enough slack to reach the bedroom because those are the only two places their rib stealing gender are worth a damn. *said in tucker max voice* xD however, i do think she needs to find someone new, cause she probably doesnt deserve that.

bad idea flockz, I think face sitting will only make him laugh harder when he finds she tastes like a cheeseburger

i meant sit on his skinny ass and suffocate him, but a cheeseburger ****** sounds rather delightful. makes me hungry.
