'My MIL pulled [a] little stunt': Daughter-in-law gets revenge on Mother-in-law's selfish holiday gift by losing 100+ pounds

Oh in-laws, aren't they just a couple of peaches? Sarcasm aside, they can truly be great people to enter your life, but the stories we find about them on the internet are often the opposite of that. Sometimes, monster-in-laws are a real life terror. Not always! But sometimes… For example, this Reddit story of a monster mother-in-law. This woman, before coming out and divorcing her than husband, had a mother-in-law who was her frenemy. the mother-in-law would present OP with fake pleasantries and snide side comments. When it came to the holidays, she knew just want to get her DIL—a jacket her own size. That's right, the MIL purposefully bought a jacket with no returns that would only fit her and not the DIL. Why? Because she wanted the jacket and would figure DIL would just give it to her when she see it wasn't her size. However, DIL was feeling extra petty, so instead of doing what MIL hoped, she spent the rest of winter working out and dieting and now that jacket looks great on her. Even after the divorce (OP and her ex-husband stayed friends and have a great co-parenting life) the MIL will see her in that jacket and look so upset. But hey, it worked out great in more ways than 1 for OP!
