Today, I bought a new armband to hold my iPhone while working out so I can listen to music and I was excited to start getting in shape. Unfortunately, when I tried it on, my arm was too big and it didn't fit. FML

70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, I was excited about my new fitness tracker that I decided to go for a run to test it out. Midway through, I looked down and realized I'd forgot to turn it on. FML
Today, I decided to try a new fitness tracker. After walking around all day, I looked at my app to check how many steps I’d taken, only to realize the tracker had counted every time I flailed my arms in frustration trying to figure out how to set it up. FML
Today, the "My body is beautiful" t-shirt that my therapist gave me didn't fit. FML
Today, I bought new earphones for my phone so I could finally listen to music again. Not an hour later I broke it. FML
Today, I got my new smartwatch that I ordered for myself on the promise that I would use it for tracking my new exercise routine. Instead, I used it for playing Pong whilst eating cake and drinking wine. FML
Today, I was thinking about my new diet and workout plan as I was getting dressed in the morning, feeling much thinner and more energetic. Just as the thought passed through my brain, the button on my skirt popped off. FML
Today, I wore a new shirt I was really pleased to have bought. As soon as I put it on, I noticed it was a bit tight, but I thought it would stretch out. By the end of the day, I looked like I was wearing a sausage casing. My coworkers couldn’t stop laughing. FML
Today, after losing 20 pounds, I decided to purchase new clothes. All of the clothes at the store were still too small for me. FML
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in months. I was feeling good about it, until I realized that I'd forgotten my workout clothes and was wearing jeans. As I attempted to do squats in my tight jeans, I split them down the middle. FML
Today, I went to the gym to try to get into shape. While I was running on the treadmill, my beer belly pushed against the emergency stop button, twice. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

This is not to discourage, but as someone who struggled getting into shape, little things like that won't motivate you. I was so excited when I got my Nike fit running shoes with the sensor, but ultimately, you need to be committed to change to accomplish what you want to accomplish. Cool little items to motivate you are nothing compared to wanting to wake up in shape one day. Good luck man!

That sucks OP. But don't let it discourage you! You can always tape up a picture of a laughing donkey yelling "FATTY!!" onto your mirror. Motivation at its finest... If you're not afraid of the extreme end of things, you can always try out insanity. It got me in shape.

Posting pictures of models on the refrigerator is also a popular way to motivate yourself when you're trying to lose weight too!

I think they meant "For time be should diet you." Hope this helps.

"For you, Time should be Diet." It's like the "time is money" of the exercise world.

no no it was definitely 'time should be diet for you'. i actually follow this saying as well. it means as you sit and do nothing, you burn massive amounts of calories. which is why i like to counterbalance this with a plate of pizza rolls every three and a half minutes.
