Today, I stepped on the scale because I'm trying to maintain a good weight. The scale read that I had lost 6 pounds. Feeling really good about myself, I stepped off the scale only to see that the corner of the scale was sitting on the rug, making the scale mess up and tell me the wrong weight. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
The indignity
Today, I stepped on the scale this morning and it actually shattered beneath my feet. FML
Today, when I weighed myself on my scale, it broke. FML
Today, after taking a shower, I decided to weigh myself. Curious, I peered down. I couldn't see the scale. I am fat. FML
Own it
Today, when I stepped on the scale this morning, I broke it. Now my family won’t stop making fun of me and calling me names like "chubby" and "fatso". The scale was really old and I weigh 110 pounds. FML
Today, stepping on a scale for the first time in years, I had to lift up my stomach to see the number. FML
Today, I stepped on the scale and realized that I weigh more than the amount of money that I have in my bank account. FML
Today, I found out that I've been using a "Trick Scale" that my family bought to boost my self esteem so I'd think I was losing weight. I found this out at my physical, where I learned I have actually gained ten pounds. FML
Simple answer
Today, while getting ready for work, I realized that all my pants were getting a bit tight. When I got home from work, I went in to the bathroom and stood on the scale, which confirmed that I have gained a few pounds. I then realized that I was eating while standing on the scale. FML
Oops.
Today, I realized I have a weight problem. My brother excitedly showed me his new high-end scale and measured his weight, then our other brothers. I took one step on it and the screen read "E". It then shut off and hasn't turned on since. FML
Today, I finished the first month of a diet and exercise program designed to help me lose weight. To keep myself motivated, I have avoided the scale the entire time. I weighed myself today. I've gained 6 pounds. FML

at least you are trying to do something, not sitting around saying that it's ok to be overweight because "some people have genetic disorders" and calling skinny girls anorexic bitches

According to your profile, you're 13. Making you either a liar, or too stupid to submit your real age. And no, fighting with a child doesn't make anyone a pedophile. ******* with a child on the other hand...

#32 wanna make a bet? I was an (aus) size 8, i lost approx 3 kg (about 6 pounds) and my clothes are now looser on me and it's hard pushed to get smaller sizes than an 8 off the rack.

You should maybe take your own advice. Particularly the last two sentences.

I agree with Blue. The OP needs to shut the **** up. This is some petty shit, definitely not a FML.

seriously? You think 140 is overweight for your height? for 5'9" the healthy body weight for you ranges from 125 to 169. You are perfectly normal. OP I know struggling to keep a healthy weight is hard but as long as the scale wasn't off by much it's not a big deal.

BMI calculators are definitely not your friend if you're looking to achieve a high muscle/fat ratio, because bmi will just tell you you're overweight, despite having most of it comprised of lean muscle.
