Today, I bumped into my ex-boyfriend I still love, and his new girlfriend, who he cheated on me with. Embarrassingly, she was wearing the same top as me. However hers was in size 6, unlike my 16. FML

dang Maybe it's time to lose some weight!!!

I agree as well. I never feel bad for people who are overweight. it's your own damned fault.

got that right fat people just want sympathy bc they're fat

when it's their own fault that they are fat

wow you guys are so truthful and accurate!

now we now why he dumped you

Don't beat up on #12. It IS probably the reason why her EX dumped her. Do YOU know of another reason? It is something a shallow guy would do.

stfu people talk shit on here all day about personal issues, when someone makes a fat joke you get butthurt? l. I. g it hoe

or respond to...there are less shallow men out there among all the jerks. No wonder many women are choosing to become lesbian... as we are all somewhere on the Kinsey Scale.

You're the bigger one there considering you weren't the one who cheated. Pardon the pun.

Maybe I'm an idiot or something but that comment made absolutely NO sense to me.

well you know how people say BE THE BIGGER PERSON AND DO THe RIGHT THING?? maybe not.. but give it a second

Don't feel insecure, own your weight.(:

If she is overweight she needs to lose it, people shouldnt be "proud" of thenselves if tbeyre overweight. its becoming too common. soon the average girl will be 180kg.

I'm not saying she should be proud, just don't beat yourself up about it. If she thinks its that much of a problem she can choose to lead a healthier lifestyle.

now you know why you're single... and plus take is as a sign. lose some weight!

wow ... judging by your response, I bet you have a hard time keeping a girl

Um, that IS embarrassing, but your weight doesn't define who you are.

Your weight PHYSICALLY defines you

mady90G 5

Does being overweight mean that you're destined to be a mean person? Sure, it defines you physically, but it doesn't determine what your personality is.

mduffy08 8

Being over weight shows no self-control.

mady90G 5

You presume that OP is a fatass with no self-control? What if it's a medical condition?

mduffy08 8

So what? 20% of the ******* population has a ******* medical problem? Are you a dunce? Then get some medication. People have got to stop making excuses for themselves.

Mean_Mr_Mustard 9

if it was a medical condition she probably would have said so, because that would have made her life suck that much more at that moment. Medical condition or not being over weight does more then define you physically it defines you medically. Either way being obese means that you are unhealthy in some way unless your pregnant which I don't think she is since she still loves him. Just my thoughts.

106 - Bitch, what is wrong with you? Are you at all aware of the fact that some people's obesity is not curable? Stop judging people by the little shit you know. Kthxbai.

mady90G 5

108 - If it's not a medical condition and she has the OPTION to lose weight, that would probably be a wise move. In which case she has no right complaining about her weight if she doesn't feel the need to DO anything about it.

mduffy08 8

150 There are big boned people, where you can tell they are kinda beefy, not necessarily fat. So name me a condition that isn't curable/treatable. In fact, name me a condition because I've never heard someone say, "oh I'm fat because I have a medical condition". You're fat because you eat too much and sit on your ass all day.

mduffy08 8

And if OP has the option, then why the hell is she complaining that she is a size 16? If she isn't embarrassed, this isn't an FML.

mady90G 5

Now you're telling me I'm supposed to be some sort of Edward Cullen, reading OP's mind? I'm done here, stop commenting on my damn comment. Shoo.

#162, how about any medical condition that prevents you from exercising?

under active thyroid and also some people going through chemo gain weight, so...

there is medication and other treatment options.

208 - No, not always. So all these little ***** commenting about how obesity is ALWAYS curable and all the person needs to do is get up off their fat, lazy ass, are wrong. Very wrong. It's true, weight gain and loss can be uncontrollable. Sometimes there are no medications to fix the problem, and even if there are medications for a certain problem, it can't always be fixed. For all you know, she IS on a medication for something unrelated, and THAT'S making her gain weight. ******* assholes.

273- I think she meant how did OP know the other girl was a size six.

mady90G 5

Thank you, that was a much needed comment. ^^ Some people really are heartless pricks.

275 - I think you think I'm replying to a different comment. I'm right in what I said.

Thank you! I have thyroid problems and work my ass off to be a size 9. I am bigger than I want to be, but don't know what to do to be a 6. People do try! Just not always successfully!

there are soo many medications out there that have weight gain as a side effect. lifestyle and diet changes don't always help either.

sunlovinmama 1

you are a douche. I hope you get fat so you have to go through what fat people go through and can stop being such an asshole

208 - What if they can't afford medication and/or treatment?

just because you are a lard ass who doesn't want to admit that they don't want to work out doesn't mean you can blame it all on medical conditions.

432 - I have a medical condition that prevents me from working out (I break out in hives if I sweat) and the medication that treats this condition causes me nausea and drowsiness. So... don't be so quick to judge. Some of us actually just can't exercise.

The medication my friend takes for her diabetes caused her to gain 2 stone. My mum has such bad psoriasis on her feet and hands that she can barely walk or write let alone exercise! There is no cure for psoriasis and no treatment that works for her. So I can tell you with 100% certainty there is at least one condition that can cause uncontrollable weight gain. Hell even my contraceptive pill causes me to retain water, giving me an extra 6 or so pounds.. Before you suggest I'm just another 'fatty', I am not overweight with that extra because I was almost underweight before going on them.

it's not a medical disease to NOT put the burger down and eat a carrot instead.

Mean_Mr_Mustard 9

That's what I was getting at and said in a comment later down the chain. So I completely agree she has no right to complain

Mean_Mr_Mustard 9

it has been proven that everones bones are the same size for the same height. "Big boned" people actually have a medical condition which causes them to gain weight.

Mean_Mr_Mustard 9

I have a thyroid disorder caused by PCOS and I take medication to treat it. I was 105lbs and am 5'3. It can be treated but again being over weight still signifies that a person is unhealthy, it really doesn't matter the reason.

It doesn't always define who you are,but usually it does, defining that you have let yourself go and you don't care about yourself. If you do care, you wouldn't be overweight. Forget baby fat and depression, those things should be your past. Start thinking about your future, and how you can make yourself a lot better.

personally I completely agree with this. i find the suggestions for her to lose weight slightly offensive. when a person insenuates they are selfconscious of their weight, the proper response is never to agree with them.. it's to say "you are perfect just the way you are; it's being comfortable in your own skin that matters, so screw everyone else, especially cheaters!!" own your size, girl. i'm a 22 so i know that feel :]

why? so the cheating loser will love her for her looks?? doh!

no, because being a size 16 is insanely unhealthy. don't try that "you're fine the way you are" bs either. you kill yourself more and more with each big Mac you shovel down.

if she a 16 I don't think she has to "shovel it down".... js

depending on how tall she is, a size 16 isn't necessarily extremely unhealthy.

I didn't say she was 6'8". I'm just saying that being a size 16 doesn't mean she's obese

A size 16 is not that big! It's only 5 dress sizes bigger than the other girl.. Size 16 (US 12) is the smallest 'Plus size' in the UK. I believe in the US you are deemed plus sized at a size 14 (UK 18)? The average dress size in the UK is a 14 (US 10) so OP is only one size bigger than the average woman and would not be considered plus sized in the US at all.

Mean_Mr_Mustard 9

being considered "plus sized" doesn't have anything to do with the clinical definition of obese. that depends on your weight and height, unless she is Juana-man then there is now was her BMI is in the range of healthy. And if she is an Amazonian women then that is probably a huge turn off also.

the point is, she's a fatty. who wants to mate with someone who'd rather stuff their face with food?

Erm.. My boyfriend is more than twice my weight, I don't care that he is big! I am probably one of the least healthy people I know but I'm one of those lucky people who don't put on weight. Thin doesn't necessarily mean healthy! At 120lbs I couldn't run up a flight of stairs but my boyfriend could. Also BMI is bull.. I'm a UK8 but have a BMI of 26 which makes me overweight!

Mean_Mr_Mustard 9

then you probably are over weight. And no being skinny doesn't mean you are healthy, I never said it did, but being fat mean you defiantly are not whether it's from a medical condition or gluttony it's not healthy. The only thing that is not right about BMI is that if I am on the low side at 5'9 I can gain 20lbs extremely rapidly and still be considered healthy which is not healthy. the weight per inch is right.

It's this amazing ability woman have where they can know the size of another's person clothes without looking at the tag. They can also somehow measure dick size without a ruler.

His voice out does Morgan Freeman

or she has dreamed of being a size 6 since she was 6??? lol

Now you should lose the weight and show that dick what he's missing. :)

She shouldn't have to lose any weight. Skinny doesn't equal pretty.
