Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, even though I’m very careful, my modeling agency said that I’d put on weight. FML

It's my morphology!
Today, for the hundredth time this year, I was told to lose weight. As an adult, I weigh 90 pounds soaking wet. FML

Today, I was at the gym and saw an old friend. I have put on a lot of muscle in the past few months, and she said to me "Wow, you've really gotten big." Just by habit I said "You too." Turns out she's gained 45 lbs since I'd last seen her. Oops. FML

Today, I went with my girlfriend to the gym for the first time. I knew I was in bad shape, but I bet her that I could lift more than her. Not only did I get my ass handed to me by a 5', 115lbs girl in front of the entire gym, I also have to attend Zumba in bright pink spandex. FML

Today, I was at the gym. I'm 360 lbs and have finally decided it's time to change that. Some girl and her two bitch friends thought it'd be fun to follow me and belittle me at everything I did. When I mentioned it to the staff, they said that they were just "encouraging" me. FML

Today, my girlfriend dumped me because I've recently become serious about getting fit, and have lost nearly 84 pounds. Apparently, when I was fat, I made her look smaller in comparison. When I got slimmer, she insisted I either gain the weight back or she'd leave. So she did. FML

Today, I took the kids to the pool. I'm short and 20lbs overweight but they talked me into it and I put on a swimsuit for the first time in 10 years. As soon as we got there, a girl my height but a good 150lbs heavier said, "It's so nice to see another big girl in a two-piece!" FML

Today, I had my pill check and the nurse cautioned me that my BMI says I'm obese. I'm an elite powerlifter and my weight is this high on purpose. FML

Today, I felt like going to the gym. I asked my girlfriend if she wanted to come with me. She screamed at me for supposedly implying that she's fat. No, I just wanted to go to the gym with someone. 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

Weighing 150lbs doesn't mean anything. Are you 5'2"? 6'4"? Male? Female? Do you have a gut or a six pack? Weight, without other variables, is useless for telling what sort of shape you are in.

You can still be out of shape even if you aren't over/underweight

It says that OP is male, and unless he actually is 5'2" 150lbs is not an unhealthy weight. Regardless, fitness model or not it's damn rude to tell someone they need to get in shape without being asked.

It’s their job to tell people to get in shape.

it’s literally not their job. they’re models, not doctors or fitness TRAINERS.

Yeah, but Male is surely the default, so I thought I'd ask. 150 is also an unhealthy weight for 6'8". Fitness goes in multiple directions. A fitness model's job probably does entail telling people to get in shape. I couldn't name a single fitness model, I'm not entirely sure what they would do but I'm imagining either a youtube 'star' who makes workout videos or someone who poses in Men's/Women's Health magazines and things like that. Getting people to use their products is their job.

I weigh about 140lbs (63kg in normal people units) and while I have some muscle mass I am DEFINITELY not fit and have still loads of fat to lose. Weight itself means nothing.

Fitness models literally make money from telling other people they’re not good enough and to buy whatever they’re selling.

I’m 5’5” 135lbs and in HORRIBLE shape. Winded at the drop of a hat, can’t run worth crap, can’t lift. Your weight means next to nothing without more info.

The first question I have is, "how tall are you?" Just because you weigh 150 lbs, it does not mean you are in shape. If you are 5' tall and 150 you are FAT and need to lose some weight. If you are 6' tall and 150 then you need to gain a few lbs. Either way, your weight does not really determine your fitness.

My first question was "You have a favorite fitness model?" I didn't know that was a thing.

There's a lot more factors to take into account than weight when talking about overall fitness.
