My bed collapsed!

I was already dieting, and pleased that I had lost about 10lb. But this morning at 2.30 there was a loud crack and the legs of my bed had buckled! I feel so ashamed.

You can get reinforced beds. Theres a website thats called exactly that. Alot safer too

@TimeToRecover Thank you, I've been Googling those (not much else to do at that time in the morning!).

They are worth it ! Even if you get the reinforced frame and keep your mattress

Most beds would be able to hold big weights, sounds like a bed problem not a you problem

@TimeToRecover I've ordered exactly that, nothing wrong with my mattress. I was very impressed to see that the delivery men take the bed to the correct room and put it together as well ☺

@bellac11 Maybe so, but I'm not risking it!

You need a divan!

What a rude bed passing judgement like that and in the middle of the night too!

If your bed handled you before you lost weight and only decided to mug you off after you've got a bed problem, not a you problem. Get your ducks in a row and leave it's arse.

Please don't feel poorly, op. You're working hard to improve your health. Don't let anything hinder your progress, especially not a shit bed frame.

Thank you all, I was quite upset but you've made me laugh! Who knew that LTB stood for lob the bed?

Update: I ordered a really nice divan, slept rather painfully on a mattress on the floor for three nights until delivery day today. Paid £££s for it to be unwrapped and assembled in the correct room. Then the delivery men claimed that it wouldn't go up the stairs. It looks to me like it should, but they got shirty when I said so and told me to do it myself. I'm a not-very-fit woman in my sixties, so - looks like I'm going to have to sleep downstairs. Brilliant. 😥
