Today, I decided to go on a diet to lose some weight before summer. This was followed by the arrival of a giant parcel full of candy from my mother. FML

Today, I received a box in the mail from my mom which I assumed was a care package. It was a scale to encourage me to lose weight. FML

Today, after several months of eating right, exercising, and weight loss, my mother has yet again arrived at my house, unannounced and with a very sugary cake. She's been doing this most weeks since I lost 50 pounds. FML

Today, I told my mom I was finally going on a diet. She let me know how proud she is of me fighting temptation, by making my favorite cookies and dinner. FML

Hmmm, candy

Today, I found out that I eat candy in my sleep. For two months I've been dieting because of my weight and high risk of diabetes. I now know why nothing has changed. FML

As a treat

By CrumblGirl - 06/03/2025 15:00 - United States

Today, I bought myself a Crumbl cookie as a treat for losing 20lbs. Upon seeing it, my mom screamed at me for cheating on my diet and how I was going to "gain all the weight back" and insisted she eat some of it to "help me out." She left behind a tiny morsel of the cookie with a chocolate chip chunk. FML

Today, I decided I would eat healthy in order to lose weight. Feeling powerful, I threw away all of the icecream in my freezer. An hour later, I picked the icecream carton out of the garbage and ate the entire half-melted carton. FML

Today, I was online looking up ways to lose weight, get thinner and be healthier, all the while eating a slab of brownie that was half the size of my head. FML

So? Candy lasts a long time, so leave it until later.

This is the worst FML I've ever read in my life. If you think your life sucks because your mother sent you a bag of candy and your fat ass can't resist eating it, then you are a very, very lucky person if having a bag of candy sent to you is your biggest problem. Maybe your one of those people that need to be broken down so you can lose weight. **** you, you've ruined my day, this is my FML.

just because she sent you candy doesn't mean you have to eat it. give the candy to some kid. and the reason that you probably need to go on a diet is because you can't just tell your mom the truth that you want to lose weight so stop sending me junk food.

"Hey, kid, you want some candy?" "Mummy told me not to have candy from strangers!" "COME ON! EAT IT! GET FAT LIKE ME!"

You should be grateful your mother sent you anything. Find the willpower to ignore the candy, or at least eat it slowly - say, a piece per day. Savor it and be thankful your mother thought of you.
