Today, I saw a weight loss 'before and after' advertisement and I wished I could at least look like the 'before'. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I discovered I am the "before picture" in an internet weight loss advert. FML
Today, I discovered that a company has been using a photo of me for one of those "she lost 50 pounds" online ads. I'm the "before" photo. FML
Today, I spent an hour photoshopping my face onto super skinny models as inspiration for a diet. FML
Today, after undergoing a rigorous diet and exercise program, I was proud of losing 65 lbs in 3 months. When my favorite client saw me gleaming from my results, she loudly exclaimed that, “all life is sacred.” She assumed I'd had an abortion. FML
Today, after going through a major weight loss and change of lifestyle to better my confidence and health, I now have saggy thighs, arms and boobs, a deflated ass, two inches of hanging stomach, and have realized just how unsymmetrical my face is. Oh, and my physical health has never been worse. FML
Today, my boyfriend suggested I try on some old clothes, after weeks of eating better and exercising. The good news: they fit again, and are even a little bit loose. The bad news: somehow, I look fatter now than I did before I started trying to lose weight. FML
Today, I got to see my best friend for the first time in months. Her first reaction was to say, "Wow, you gained a lot of weight." I actually lost a fair bit. FML
Today, a coworker complimented me on losing weight, and said that she wished she could drop a few pounds too. I was too embarrassed to tell her that the only reason I've lost weight is because I haven't been able to afford to eat. FML
Today, I realized that every targeted advertisement on my Facebook involves gym memberships and diet pills. FML
Today, after I completely starved myself for a week and exercised every day in an attempt to lose weight, I instead gained 5 pounds. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Greed, gluttony and sloth. All your fault my friend.

You wished you could look less fat than you do now...so you decided to go and whine about it on the Internet. Good plan; I'm sure that burns many, many calories. You'll be looking like that "before" picture in no time!

I'm so glad FML is NOT filled with "it's not his fault he's fat" people. YDI totally. Even people with hypothyroidism can still maintain a healthy weight if they try hard enough.

I once saw an ad like that, only the 'before' picture was considerably more attractive than the 'after' :)
