Today, about 10 minutes into my first jog in months, someone in a car started following me, yelling stuff like "Oh my god, it's Shamu!" and "Run faster, fatty!" I ended up breaking down in tears before he finally sped off, roaring with laughter. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
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 decided to get back into shape. I went for a jog around my neighborhood. The ice cream truck followed me for my whole jog, mocking me. FML
Self-confidence boost
Today, I was jogging with my shirt off, feeling confident and athletic. A car slowed down next to me. I expected a compliment, but instead, a kid leaned out the window and yelled, “Put it back on, Shrek!” FML
Today, while out for a jog, I noticed that you never know how fast you run until you're being followed by someone in a car you don't know, and they're continuously honking at you. I later found out it my dad in his new car. FML
Gotta start somewhere
Today, I went outside to start jogging for improving my ever declining fitness. A kind stranger yelled, “You’re doing great!” as I was wheezing after my first block. I was sitting on a bench. FML
Today, I decided to get back into shape and go for a run. With a 1/4 mile left to run, I saw a hot chick a block ahead of me running. Trying to show off I ran hard and passed her stopping just outside my complex. I started to throw up right as she came past me because I had run so hard to pass her. FML
Freaked
Today, I was walking on a path through a park by myself. I glanced at the ground and saw a shadow behind me. Thinking of an attacker, I screamed as loud as I could and began flailing my arms to ward him off. Turns out, it was a jogger. He had to stop due to his uncontrollable laughter. FML
Today, I walked outside to see my friend frantically waving and running at me, yelling something I couldn't understand. I smiled and started to jog over to him until I realized he was screaming "RUN!!!" We spent the next 10 minutes running from his neighbor's 5 vicious chihuahuas. FML
Today, some guy on a bike kept taunting me about my weight while I was out jogging. He ended up hitting a street lamp and fell off his bike. I had a real good laugh at him for all of 5 seconds before he got mad and really made me run. FML
Jog on
Today, feeling out of shape, I went for a jog. I got mugged. FML

Keep at it! Don't let one asshole ruin it for you! :)

What the hell? That's disgusting. I'm sorry, OP. That dude was obviously bored with his own sad life and needs to get a job or something to occupy himself.

Wear headphones so assholes like that don't distract you from getting fit!

Yeah keep going ! If you really feel insecure consider going to a gym . Most people don't judge and if they do you can simply complain because a gym is made for people of all sizes and you should never feel insecure at the gym . Yes, the first few times it'll feel like people are staring but that happens to everyone . I and my friends know from experience how it feels to dread going to the gym for the first time . You can do it ! (:

So, I'm playing pokemon right? While going down this road, a wild Snorlax appeared. I'm going to hell, I know. Just step in front of the dude's car next time. He won't be laughing after his car gets totalled and you walk off unscratched. That was even worse than the first one. I'm not only going to hell, but I'm going in on a rocket ship....with my Snorlax.

So how about that world hunger? I have found the cause.

How bout you stop threadjacking and GTFO.

I agree with #1, OP. **** them. Don't let them get to you. Like people have said, wear headphones and listen to music loudly. You won't hear anyone say anything. Just be aware of your surroundings, for your safety. Don't give up!

OP, I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. Keep up your hard work and get a nice pair of headphones (but not too noise-canceling as that could be dangerous if you frequent busy roads) or do your best to ignore it if it ever happens again. You're better than that asshole and you're working on bettering your health, you have something to be proud of -- unlike the idiot that made fun of you.

You don't have to be perfect to start; but in order to be perfect you have to start

That is the number one greatest comment/saying I've ever heard.

Don't let that guy bring you down, just focus on doing you OP.

I'd pick up a rock and throw at him, hoping to break his window/windshield or hit him on the head. Or just write down his plate number then call the cops and tell them the guy almost ran you over. That'll teach him a lesson... Don't give up though, don't let some random asshole get to you...

What a moron, keep going for runs. Maybe try a different way. **** that guys life.
lexiieeex3 32
I find this absolutely despicable. No one deserves to be treated that way. I hope you didn't take it to heart OP. Keep on running and try to pay no mind to the assholes like that in the world!

I completely agree. OP think about this: you were the one jogging and he was driving on a car. At least you're trying, keep it up!
Daffodilly 14
Remember OP, no matter how slow you run, you're lapping everybody on the couch.

I laughed really hard at your comment. Bless your soul as well as the OPs. Keep doin what you're doin OP, if you see him again tell him that his parents don't love him.

OP, just tell him to kiss yor fat ass and keep truckin'

Going to the park helps. Specially since there's a lot of people that go run and I'm sure they won't do that to you op. Also high schools and community colleges keep their tracks open so you can go there as well to run. All I could say was "awww" when I read this. I'm sorry op :( but forget that asshole! I understand you. I'm on the heavy side and don't run out in the street for fear someone will do that.

OP should have stomped that jerk's headlights. Can't stand dismotivators when doing physical efforts.

To bad it happened to the o.p. It brought it on itself for allowing itself to get so disgustingly obese.
staychill 16
Hey at least you're making an effort to lose weight! Dont pay attention to jerks like that keep putting in the effort!
ChelzTheWolfGirl 29
Keep jogging Op! Don't let anybody keep you from your goals. He's not worth the tears or your loss of motivation. Get back out there and keep jogging. You'll be proud of yourself and that's all that matters. :) good luck!

Ignore him! Usually people do things like that to make themselves feel better about something they dislike in their own lives
CurlyQute 17
Asshole. Don't let him get to you!
krupa1017 18
What an ass! Don't let someone like that bring you down!
Sefolkerth 20
I'm sorry, OP. No matter your current situation no one deserves that. Keep your head up and don't let that guy stop you from obtaining your goals.
JMichael 26
Keep it up. You're doing something for yourself. In 5 years he'll end up 6 feet under because he pissed off the wrong person.
