Today, for my birthday, my friends and family gave me: A Wii Fit, a free year at the gym and a book of diet recipes. They didn't consult with each other. I've asked for "something corresponding to me". FML

Today, it's my birthday. My parents, with whom I live, told me that they didn't get me anything, but instead they said they would knock off a bit of the housekeeping I owe them. FML

How can I make this about me?
Today, it's my birthday. My wife took me to my favorite restaurant for dinner. She made me pay for my birthday dinner, along with hers. She also got me a gift card to HER favorite store. FML

You can't understand it now, but in a few weeks or months, if you really hit the gym, you will love her for that present. Happy birthday!

There is a way to encourage people who may be overweight and this is NOT the way. The mother should have purchased something the daughter may have WANTED for her birthday. She should also have supported her by dieting with her and going to the gym together. The last thing you need is 5 dresses in a size 6 when you're an apple-shaped 18. You might as well say: Happy Birthday fatass. Here's a daily reminder that you're a fatass. See look at the cute dresses, fatass. You should be grateful, fatass. I'm your mother and I know what's best for you, fatass. How much weight have you lost, fatass. What about after the treadmill, fatass... It's sad.

Better to have a mom like that than to wake up one day confined to your bed because your muscles can't support the 200 pounds you gained.

It could be possible that your mother just wants you to be healthy, you know. I'd be friggin' syked if I could afford a gym membership Insted of trying to drag up the urge to go for runs every day.

Take her credit card and bring the clothes to a seamstress who'll let the seams out and make them fit, then buy a brownie on your way home and make sure she sees you eat it If you want to loose weight then great! but no one can or should force you to
