Today, my friend sent me an instant message, telling me how excited she was that she was accepted to a FIT Summer Program. I told her I was so proud, and that she can finally lose that excess weight. She told me that she meant Fashion Institute of Technology. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my parents were ecstatic about sending me to an amazingly fun camp. I didn't know until I got there that it was a fat camp. 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 met one of my favorite fitness models. She told me I need to get in shape. I weigh 150lbs. 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, I was walking with a friend to tell him how excited I was for college and even motivating him to apply for the same school, until I found out later that I got rejected. FML
Today, I told my mom I wanted to try out for the track team. Her exact words were "good luck, fatty". FML
Today, after five months of unemployment and hardcore job searching, I got hired for my dream job. I called my mum to tell her all about it, to which she responded, "Great honey! Now all you need to do is lose all that weight." She allowed me all of four minutes of feeling good about myself. FML
Today, after months of dieting, I finally reached my goal weight. Excitedly I told my boyfriend, who gave me a beautiful dress as an early Christmas present. It was a size too small. FML
Today, my best friend told me I lost weight. I was happy because I've worked hard to shed off those pounds. I asked her what changes were evident, she told me that I now have a neck. FML
Today, I went to a high school reunion. An old friend I hadn't seen in a while suddenly came up to me and gasped, "Oh, thank God!" I was about to greet her and catch up when she added, "I'm not the only one who gained weight!" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Your friend brought it upon herself if she said "fit" instead of spelling out F.I.T. Still, you should have asked for clarification on what she meant before saying what you did.

That's a very unfortunate slip xP If she just said the word "fit", it's not your fault, but but if she did indeed spell out F.I.T., you're screwed. And #3, it really is called "The Fashion Institute of Technology" lol.

I don't recall fitness programs needing to accept you to be in them. It's not like the read resumes on some obese people and see which ones they like best. I would have to say this is a failure on your part.

Guys, theres so many acronyms being thrown around in the world, how the hell is one supposed to know what something means? Give the guy a break. His friend was too lazy to expend a calorie or two to type out the whole name of the school. It was her fault for assuming that #1 stood for a school.

honest mistake. you obviously didn't mean it in a cruel way if you said you were proud of her. and by the way, just because you're her friend doesn't mean you can't tell her she needs to drop a few. in fact, if she does need to lose weight, it's best that she hears it respectfully from her friend than cruelly from a stranger.

#12. I agree that there is nothing more annoying that someone who is fat and just bitches all day about how fat they are without trying to do anything about it. THAT is annoying. But if someone is overweight and they are comfortable with their body, there is nothing wrong with that. So get over yourself. You're no better than anyone else. And about your comment that eating isn't an addiction, actually. It can be. It's called an eating disorder. Most people associate eating disorders with not eating enough, but if you eat too much that it becomes obsessive or an addiction, it IS an eating disorder. Also some OCD sufferers can be obsessed with eating. Maybe YOU should get off the computer and go read a book or something. To the sender, this was an honest mistake. You shouldn't feel bad about it.

i guess your life is bad, compared to the person who's being told she need to lose weight by her friend.
