I went out to dinner tonight with my fiance and his family. Everyone ordered dessert, and no one commented on anyone’s choice, except mine. I was told “You don’t need that sugar” and “aren’t you trying to slim down for the wedding?” and “You don’t want your dress to be too small!” and “Oh man, you better not eat that, he can still leave you if you get too big!” It was made off as some kind of joke.

What made it worse is my FH has fought obesity his entire life, having to subject himself to an EXTREMELY unhealthy diet, and 3+ hours of exercise a day, just so the comments would stop. I could see him getting anxious with those same comments being directed at me.
