Today, my mom has forbidden me from drinking skim milk, because my sister is upset that I'm skinnier than her. The same sister who refuses to drink any other milk than 2% chocolate. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom claimed that lactose intolerance is a "myth" and told me to drink my damn milk because it's good for my bones. FML
Today, my mom complained that I never do anything nice for her, so while out shopping I bought her favorite chocolate bar. When I got home, she screamed at me because she’s on a diet. FML
Today, my sister was concerned that her daughter (my niece) was sick, and hesitant to take her to the ER. I asked if she'd eaten something she shouldn't have, and she replied, "No, especially since we feed her the most healthy food we can." This was fine until I flipped out when she said, "We even give her raw milk so that she'll be strong." FML
Today, we ran out of milk and my 4 year-old son came up to me and asked if he could "milk" my wife's breasts for his cereal. Apparently, he thinks my wife doesn't love him and his sister is selfish for not sharing her milk. His sister is only one month old. FML
Today, my mother offered me some chocolate milk. I took a few gulps before I realized the label said it was raw unpasteurized milk. When I pointed this out to my mother, she asked me what pasteurization is. We might get sick because my mother is the most horrifically ignorant and out-of-touch person on earth. FML
Today, I threw a tantrum because my younger sister ate my chocolate. I'm almost 18. FML
Today, I was on the phone with my little sister as she explained that all these guys like her now that she's so skinny and beautiful. My mom must have overheard me tell my sister that at least I was a cuter child, because my mom laughed and said, "Yeah right, we had to buy you fat kid diapers." FML
Today, despite begging my parents to get food other than diet and weight loss stuff, they refused. I'm bullied for being skinny on a daily basis. FML
Today, my aunt said that it looked like I lost some weight. I was pleased with this, since I've been trying to lose some. My mom, for some reason, thought it was insulting. She pulled me to aside to assure me that I most definitely don't look any skinnier. FML
Today, I found out my mom intentionally puts extra butter and oil in the food she cooks for me because she wants me to be fatter than her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I really doubt the milk is making that much of a difference unless it's all either of you drink.... So definitely fyl, I guess stick to water.

Uhm saturated fat in milk or anything else won't make you fat. The sugar and other shit in chocolate milk of any percent will for sure... So you'll be ok :) lol maybe even make your momma more angry because you'll still be skinnier.

"Healthy" foods, "unhealthy" foods, it's all a pretty big misconception. I don't exercise at all while still eating whatever it is that I want. I'm well within the standards for my BMI. Everybody's built differently. I was born with the benefit of a phenomenal metabolism. Others, not so much. Some people actually have to work for what I've been naturally been gifted.

Milk isn't enough to make enough of a difference between weights. There's exercise, diet, stress levels, so many things. But most of all, one of the biggest factors, pure genetics. You could very well have different body types or shapes.

Well not necessarily any one of those factors could be the biggest factors you have no idea what either sister does while not drinking milk. Maybe her sister is a fat pig and she doesn't want to be.

79 - What world do you live in? Yes, everyone is built differently; and yes, it is possible to be within BMI while eating what you want. However, you can't possibly tell me that it's a "misconception" that an apple would be better for me to eat than a slice of cake. Certain foods have more vitamins and nutrients and less fats, and that's no "misconception". I'm with 57. I'm not a huge fan of sugary or unhealthy foods either, but that's just because I don't eat a whole lot of them & it's not to my tastes.

Exactly. Another parent giving in to their bratty child's every wish as opposed to just encouraging her to eat/drink healthier or find an activity she enjoys.

How skinny are you

Having a great metabolism and a thin body doesn't mean you're healthy though. Exercise is good for everyone. You might think you look/feel fine now, but who knows what you're doing to your body in the long-term.
