Today, my niece offered me a slice of cake. After I refused, she asked, "Why not? Aren't fat people always hungry?" FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Same thing different taste
Cake is everything
Today, at my maternal grandmother’s wake, I decided I deserved a piece of cake as it had been a hard day. I was serving myself a slice when my paternal grandma caught my eye from across the room, making a “fat face” at me. She called out, loudly, “You don’t need it Pudgy.” FML
Kids say the darndest things
Today, I was babysitting my niece. While we were at the grocery store, she pointed at me and loudly announced, “She says she’s on a diet, but she eats cookies in bed!” She wasn’t wrong. The cashier raised an eyebrow. FML
Make it make sense
Today, I was told it is "fatphobic" to "assume someone's weight is related to their food choices" and that I have a "problematic relationship with food." All because I didn't want to eat a bigger slice of the cake someone brought in at work. FML
Today, I was hanging out at a friend's house. Her adorable 5 year-old sister came up, gave me a hug, and said, "You're fat. When are you going home?" FML
Today, my parents threw out the beautiful birthday cake my aunt made me, and served celery sticks at my party because I need to "watch my weight." FML
Today, my co-worker offered me sweets, then chocolate and then biscuits. Repeatedly. She knows I'm trying to diet for my wedding. She does this every day. FML
Today, I was with my family at a buffet getting dessert. As I had my chocolate cake in hand, I grabbed an extra slice of cheesecake for my mom because I knew she would like a slice. Upon returning to my table, a couple walking behind me commented, "See, that's why Americans are so obese." FML
Today, my coworker asked me if I was on a diet for my New Year's resolution. When I said no, she replied, "Why not?" FML
Snide
Today, my sister asked me if any of my family members had commented on my recent weight gain. I told her, "No, not really." Her reply? "They must just being saying it behind your back then." FML
Unusual cruelty
Today, I found out that my overweight daughter’s teacher starved her during a pizza party. She made her wait an hour until the entire class got a slice and their seconds. When it was her turn, there was only one tiny slice. According to her, she, “looks like she hasn’t missed a meal, she’ll be alright.” FML

The FML here is that your niece is clearly retarded, right? I mean, surely you already knew you if you were fat or not, right? This couldn't be another one of those my-life-is-******-because-someone-told-me-I'm-fat posts. Of course not. It must be the niece-is-retarded thing.

All you people are seriously pathetic. Honestly. I'm fat. I'm not obese, but i'm 20 kilos heavier than I'd like to be. Why? Because I eat too much. My bones aren't too big. I don't have some disease. My legs aren't broken, i could exersize if I wanted too. Why don't I lose the weight? I try, of course. I don't want to be fat. Perhaps I lack determination. But let me get to my point. I don't ask for sympathy for being fat. I just ask not to have it yelled at me across the street from strangers. I mean I don't get on the scales, look at the number and expect a hug, but just because I'm fat does that mean I should be insulted on how I look by people I don't even know? The OP was merely saying she was upset that her neice hurt her feelings. The FML doesn't read; "Today, I ate a cake. I'm fat. FML." so stop acting like she clubs baby seals with orphans.

I love how all the fatties get defensive and angry that another fatty is getting made fun of :) It must be the time of day when they're all getting hungry again. Hungry fatties=angry fatties. Please go stuff yourselves full of cookie dough and calm down!!

Mshafty, I sincerely hope that comment was intended as a joke, and not to insult fellow members of the FML community.

Yes it was a very lame joke, and was not intended at the fml community. Hopefully no major offense was taken!

No problem! Just this FML thread is a hotbed and insults are flying, but I don't want to moderate comments unless I know they're maliciously intended. No offence was taken, at least not by me :)

Would you take advice from someone that immature/ignorant? Some people don't realize that there are people who are overweight who actually diet, exercise, and still cannot lose their weight by themselves.

If you want an honest opinion about yourself, ask a little kid! They fortunately don't know what political correctness is. I think the real problem here is not that your niece told you you're fat; it's that no one else had the courage to tell you until now. Maybe it's time to do some exercises?...

Wow, i guess no one ever thought, maybe she refused the cake because she is trying to lose some of the weight.

HAHA wow....how about a diet????

Perhaps refusing the cake was a diet? The sheer genius of the comments here astounds me... I would rather be massively obese than as rude and ignorant as some of these people commenting on this site. My life may be short, but at least I would live it happily without prejudice and rage... and all the cake I wanted.
