Today, I was walking home from the gym. I was thinking about how proud of myself I was for losing 34 pounds when someone yelled from a car window, "Look at that fat lump!" FML

Today, I was at the gym, when a pretty overweight guy started staring and eventually taunting me. Let me tell you, lines such as "Lay off the cake, fatty!" and "I can see your gut hanging out your ass, for fuck's sake!" don't exactly boost one's self-confidence. FML
Today, I finally went running to help me start losing weight. I got 50 metres before someone in a passing car shouted out "Run fatty, run". I can't work up the courage to go for a run again. FML
Today, I was at the gym and saw an old friend. I have put on a lot of muscle in the past few months, and she said to me "Wow, you've really gotten big." Just by habit I said "You too." Turns out she's gained 45 lbs since I'd last seen her. Oops. FML
Today, a coworker told me I was "fat shaming" them by discussing weight loss with other coworkers. FML
Today, my friend was complaining about how fat she was. To make her feel better I said, "Psh, you're not fat! In fact we're about the same weight!" She looked at me for a second, then burst into tears sobbing, "I'm fat! I'm fat!" FML
Today, I was passing a building and saw a fat, ugly person inside. I started to laugh and noticed it was my reflection. FML
Today, I was at the doctor's for a regular check-up. When my appointment was over and I was about to walk out, she yelled across the room in front of everyone, "Oh and if you could lose some weight, that'd be great." FML
Today, I saw a really cute guy in the grocery store. We made eye contact a few times and I was trying to work up the nerve to start a conversation. Instead, he screamed, "Yes, I know I’m fat, bitch. You don’t have to stare!” I got so many dirty looks I left immediately. I didn’t think he was fat. FML
Today, I was at the gym running with intensity on the treadmill. As I was working out, I noticed a few guys behind me staring at me. I figured they were checking me out because I was losing some weight and looking better. Turns out they were betting on how much longer "Fat Ass" could last. FML
Today, I went to the gym and worked out with a trainer. While doing arm exercises he commented on how impressed he was with the size of my triceps. That really boosted my self-confidence, until he leaned in to feel them and said, "Oh, it's just fat." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It doesn't matter what others think. At least you're doing something about it. Keep up the woodwork.

You lost 34 pounds, that is good for you. So why are you worried about some retard who doesn't even know you talking down to you. They said it from a car window so that shows they have no backbone. If I were you I'd keep working on you and develop a "kiss my ass" attitude to anyone who gets in your way. JMHO

Don't take it personal, OP. They were in a car, that means they were just ******* and couldn't go up to someone face-to-face. You lost 34 pounds, that's awesome!

Don't let 'em get you down. If they were worth anything, they'd have had the decency to not shout mean things at random strangers. How much does the opinion of an asshole really mean to you? Go ahead and feel good about your progress, you should.

SCREW THEM!!! You've lost 34 pounds. YOU rock! Keep it up - stay in the game, go get yourself the most rockin' body you can and THEY will be the poor loser slobs sitting alone. You are doing amazingly to have lost that weight and getting fit. Those losers are far from perfect on their own.

sorry for that happening OP. That happened to me once too when I was heavier - just flip them the bird and forget them; they don't know you and they don't know how hard your working. Just keep trying!

Don't worry about them, just keep doing your thing and use it as motivation to run circles around those jerks. Congrats on losing the 34 pounds!

Don't worry about them. They probably don't have any self of steam if you feel good about your body after loosing 34 pounds then you strut and forge about all the haters and eat a salad infront of a fat person eating a twinky :)

I agree with everything you're saying, and I think it's nice that you're comforting the OP, and I normally don't play the Grammar Nazi, but seriously. "Self of steam"? Really?

I like this FML. Even if they are overweight, at least they're doing something about it! I'm so tired of people saying "Someone said I was fat today. FML." If you don't like it, quit whining and DO something about it! Power to you OP.
