Today, my mom once again commented on how I need to work out. It has come to the point that I now walk around in exercise clothes and have a bottle of water/fake sweat to put on, just so she thinks I work out. This is how lazy I am. FML

Today, I was told how cruel and selfish I am for rubbing my weight loss in my mom’s face. I’ve literally begged my mom to walk, jog, workout with me for months. She went exactly once. She complained the whole time, then called me a bitch for finishing my run while she sat in the car. FML

Cautionary tale

By jogginglikeitsmyjob - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff - United States - Boston

Today, I had trouble carrying a box upstairs because my arms were sore from working out. My mom asked me, "Why are you working out so much then?" I didn't have the heart to tell her it was because of her 100-pound weight gain and that I didn't want to end up looking like her. FML

Today, I walked downstairs in a new outfit, after dieting for 3 months, and losing just over 20 pounds. My mom took one look at me and said "You'd better keep going." FML

Today, while visiting my parents, I observed that I've been able to visit more often because I've avoided getting sick the whole year. My mother responded by reminding me that I need to get my act together if I'm going to lose weight and get healthier. Not the reaction I hoped for, Mom. FML

Today, my mum was saying she needs to gain weight because she was underweight according to her doctor. She then said she's going to eat like me in order to gain more weight. FML

Today, my boyfriend's mother called me lazy. Her days consist of sitting on her couch watching Fox News. I'm a college athlete who also has a part-time job, yet I'm the lazy one. FML

Today, I told my dad I was gonna to start working out again. He looked at me with honest confusion on his face and said, "You worked out before?" My mother started laughing. She was all the way upstairs. FML

You should tell her that masturbation counts ... Assuming you don't make yourself come in a few seconds, you burn approx 100 calories every time ... ********** 10 times a day and it's like a 30-40 min jog ... and it's fun and enjoyable ... Just don't show her the result as proof ... And well if you're too lazy even for that ... It's sad ... FYL

Just keep walking and do more things. You will start to feel better and get more energy.

Way to go fat ass you probably put more effort into appearing to work out than it would take to actually get your fat ass in a gym and do the exercise!

Start working out. Yeah it sucks at first but once you get into it, you'll enjoy it and like the changes you've made

Listen to your mom, Op. She cares about you and wants you to live a healthy and happy life. By the way, you may not realize it, but you're working out just by trying NOT to work out.

Instead of putting so much work/time into faking. Just work out, you will feel better.

If you went through all that trouble to fake exercise you might as well do it for real ..,

No that's not being lazy. It's called sick and tired off people criticizing u. If u like the way u look don't worry about it.

It's called living past 50. For some people, being a little overweight is okay because they are okay with a little extra. It's different when the little extra weight and the things you did to gain it affects your organ functions and eventually kills you.
