Today, I was told by a doctor that I have a fatal disease, and that I should start making preparations for when I pass away. Then, another doctor showed up, panicking, and said that was meant for someone else with the same first name as me. The mini-heart attack I had at that moment almost killed me anyway. FML

Today, the guy I've had a crush on came over to my house. My Dad came in to see how we we're doing, looks at me and says "Man... You've REALLY been puttin' on the pounds!", pokes me in the stomach a few times, and leaves. FML
Today, when my mother-in-law told me I was losing weight, my husband started laughing. FML

Today, I had a heart attack. At the hospital, the doctor compared my heart to a stressed out 60 year-old's heart. I'm 17 and I don't even have a job yet. FML

It's actually pretty good advice lol, even though your dad didn't have to be so mean about it.

I bet you're fat enough to hear something like that from your own dad. And so, he's probably right, so you better consider losing weight, woman.

OP, while that is unfortunate that the man died, your father shouldn't say something ugly like that to you. He could've said something different to you. The only way I see him saying that to you is either because he's an asshole or you've been complain about your weight or just a bit of both. If you really want to be healthy start eating foods that aren't processed and more veggies/fruits, and stay away with sugar as much as you can. The try walking for 30 minutes for a week and then boost it up to an hour. Then move on to working on maybe lifting or whatnot, there's a lot of exercises out there that you can fit to what you want to do for your health.

Im sorry for the traumatic scene you had to witness! And yes, while its a good advice, there are better (and more polite) ways to tell someone. Good luck processing the happening, OP!
