My Husband Spent Years Mocking My Weight, until My Hidden Talent Left Him Speechless—Story of the Day
For years, my husband made mocked my plump figure. I often used food to cope with our troubled marriage. One day, his jokes went too far—he compared me to a slim, beautiful woman in front of everyone. That was the moment I decided to take control. Soon, I shocked my husband and made him speechless.
For the past few years, I struggled with my weight. No matter what I did, those extra pounds clung to me like a second skin.
I had always dreamed of becoming a skilled pastry chef. The kitchen was my sanctuary, my escape from reality. I spent countless hours there, perfecting my desserts, and creating art from flour and sugar.
But, of course, tasting everything was part of the job, right?
The more I baked, the more I ate, and soon, the weight piled on faster than I could have imagined. Each time I looked in the mirror, I felt like a stranger was staring back at me.
And my husband, Bryce… He didn’t make things any easier.

There was a time when I was always by Bryce’s side, his perfect, supportive wife. I’d attend all his work events with a smile on my face and a sparkle in my eye.
But as the pounds piled on, my confidence plummeted.
I stopped accompanying him altogether. I became a shadow of the woman I used to be, hiding away in the kitchen while Bryce continued to live his life without me.
“Is this it? Is this all I’m meant to be?
I was lost, drowning in a sea of self-doubt and loneliness, with no lifeline in sight.

One day, I had to attend an important event. It was the first one I was catering as a chef. My desserts would be front and center, the highlight of the evening.
This was a moment I had been dreaming of for months. Bryce was also attending since it was a party hosted by his business partner, Rowan.
As we arrived at the party, I felt my palms getting clammy as I smoothed down my dress for the hundredth time.
But as soon as we stepped inside, I noticed how Bryce’s attention kept drifting away from me, straight toward a slim, attractive woman across the room.
Her name was Elise, and she seemed to captivate everyone with just a smile. I caught Bryce’s gaze lingering on her.
