Today, when my boyfriend reffered to my hair, I told him I was going to dye it. He responded by saying, "finally, so how much you going for, 40, maybe 50 pounds?". I said dye it, not diet. FML

That's when you respond with, "Actually, I meant dye-it, as in my hair. But you're right, I DO need to lose weight - about 250* lbs of it. In other words: it's over. Get.out." *or whatever boyfriend's weight is

I can't stand that people act like she's committed some horrible sin for not being a size 2. If it's easy for all of you to be skinny, that's really awesome, but for some of us it's a real struggle. I've been fighting to stay a size 8 since I was in my early teens, because I just lost the genetic lottery and got a sucky metabolism. I don't stuff my face (I actually also have IBS, so I can't eat very greasy or rich things), and I'm very sensitive about because I can't stand when I'm feeling down about my weight and people act like I've made some conscious decision to not be a stick. That's not how it works. So shut the **** up. And OP, this guy is an ass, dump him. I'm lucky enough to have a cute boyfriend who doesn't like women with the physique of small boys. The one really awesome thing about not being a size 2: I have boobs. :D

He was concerned about your health. Shut up and go on a diet instead of dying your hair.

#12, I agree with you whole heartedly. As for the fat bashers out there, who's to say they aren't some greasy fat lumps of hypocrisy sitting behind the glowing light of their monitors, full of self loathing so they go to try and pull as many down with them as they can. Judging by their nasty and foul attitudes, I bet they couldn't even grab someone of the opposite gender no matter the size. Nice way to be dicks, jerks. Jealous you aren't getting what the heavier ones are, or are you too wrapped up in what society deems as socially acceptable, I.E people with enough money to hire personal trainers and plastic surgery, to see what real women are? Let me guess, most of you are single, but will vehemently lie to save face. To the OP: Dump him. His attitude will never change.

I bet he felt like a dumbass, lol At least he didn't MEAN to do it he thought that's what you meant, so he was trying to be supportive... it just would've been better if you actually said 'DIET'

#10 - Don't worry, you'll find another fat person just like yourself who will love your "huge ass, no legs, and tiny boobs" someday. The rest of the normal, average world will continue to be attracted to people who don't disgust us. For the OP, just be happy you are 40 or 50 lbs overweight and you have found someone who will tolerate you.

While he totally should have said it nicer... I think some girls should realize not ALL boyfriends are being douchebags when they encourage you to diet. 1) when you dont take care of yourself it shows, especially through your weight 2) when I started watching what I ate and working out again my guy was thrilled. Not because Im that heavy or because he doesnt find me attractive, but because my confidence drops when I am not looking my best. He wants me to hold my head high and be proud of myself, not hide beneath clothing because Im feeling gross. Its not a bad thing when someone close to you encourages you to get healthy.

To everyone who said he's a "good guy" for staying with an overweight girl ,WTF??? Like that's a horrible task that he has to put up with? Oh wow! She could be a whoring, drug abusing, thieving **** from hell but god forbid she need to lose some weight. That's far worse. He must be a knight on a white horse to be her bf!! Let's give him an award. And to think of all the really good girls who tolerate the undersized limp dicks out there.... So many boys out there that will call a girl fat if she's bigger than say, Paris Hilton. There are men that prefer curves on women, and I don't mean unhealthy curves either. They happen to be real mean who don't want to bang someone who looks like a prepubescent boy or girl.

what an ass. at least he likes you for you, but that is rude and unnecessary. he has some making up to do.

Geez, I'm myself am tiny but just because I am doesn't mean I actually act healthy. I'll be the first to admit that the only reason I am is because of the luck of the draw when it can to metabolisms and it's probably going to bite me in the ass in a few years. And then there's my boyfriend, who eats salads, walks everywhere, and lifts weights everyday and gets frustrated because he's stocky and not like one of those little skinny brats who think they're hot stuff because they can wear girl pants. But I love him and his build. I don't want someone who can pass for a coat rack. I know, wonder of wonders, there are people out there who aren't skinny and yet a lot healthier than some of the holier-then-thou pricks here.

hope he isn't your boyfriend anymore ...

if your longtime-bf is telling you to lose 50pounds, then you ought to listen to him. if he loves you, he is telling you the truth. anyway, its your own fault for being fat. take care of yourself!!
