Today, I was at the gym, when a pretty overweight guy started staring and eventually taunting me. Let me tell you, lines such as "Lay off the cake, fatty!" and "I can see your gut hanging out your ass, for fuck's sake!" don't exactly boost one's self-confidence. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to the gym. This really fat and gross guy got on the machine next to men and I figured he'd hit on me but he didn't even look at me the whole class. Now my self-esteem is in the gutter. 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, I was at the gym running with intensity on the treadmill. As I was working out, I noticed a few guys behind me staring at me. I figured they were checking me out because I was losing some weight and looking better. Turns out they were betting on how much longer "Fat Ass" could last. FML
Today, I went to the gym and worked out with a trainer. While doing arm exercises he commented on how impressed he was with the size of my triceps. That really boosted my self-confidence, until he leaned in to feel them and said, "Oh, it's just fat." FML
Today, I was walking home from the gym. I was thinking about how proud of myself I was for losing 34 pounds when someone yelled from a car window, "Look at that fat lump!" FML
Today, I saw a man at the gym glancing at me. I went over and said, "Are you ogling me?" kind of low key flirtatiously. He said, "No, I'm working out. Don't flatter yourself." FML
Today, I saw a really cute guy in the grocery store. We made eye contact a few times and I was trying to work up the nerve to start a conversation. Instead, he screamed, "Yes, I know I’m fat, bitch. You don’t have to stare!” I got so many dirty looks I left immediately. I didn’t think he was fat. FML
Today, I was working out at the gym. A very attractive girl was watching me work out, so feeling like a stud, I tried to lift a really heavy weight. I failed, got trapped, and watched helplessly as she walked away laughing. FML
Today, one of my worst nightmares as an overweight woman came true. My boyfriend showed me a video someone had recorded of us exercising together, and who was mocking my weight the entire time. FML
Today, at the gym, a very attractive lady was working out in front of me, wearing tiny shorts that left zero to the imagination. I kept trying to avert my gaze, until her extremely buff boyfriend came over and threatened me. My crime? I wasn’t checking out his girl enough. FML

Sorry, OP! I used to be really heavy myself, know how people can be! I would report him to the management of the place and let them handle it-surely they don't want him running off customers-otherwise, just switch gyms-what an ass that guy is! People used to taunt me about my weight, too-usually when they were in a vehicle/safely out of reach-don't let people like that get you down though I know it is hard to do!

People can be such assholes, can't they? Making fun of someone who is trying to lose weight, is like mocking someone who is sick and going to the hospital. Don't worry OP, that guy was only putting you down so he could attempt to compensate for his own failures (whatever that might be).

He was pretty?

That's what the Oxford comma is for; the difference between "pretty overweight guy" and "pretty, overweight guy."

You should have told him he needs to look in the mirror.

Simply poke him in the gut, make repeated references on how you can't resist playing with Jello, and when he inevitably delivers his slow, fat-guy punch and roars like Bigfoot, dodge his slow-ass moves until he inevitably exhausts himself and collapses into a sweaty heap.

Yeah, but since this isn't a movie where instant karma gets paid, at least one blow will land from a curled up meaty little food-hurler, backed by the flapping arm of a winged beast, and I can attest to this, it causes a bruise immediately and knocks the wind right out of you, and I'm sure a gym would be a bad spot for a brawl with this dude!

Maybe he was talking to himself...?

Same thing happened with me except he was taunting me about being bone thin. I beat his ass as soon as he walked out the gym doors.

And that's why I don't like gyms

"Look who's talking fatass"

Are you sure he was saying it to you? I've been to gym when a overweight girl was doing the same. She was talking to herself though
