Today, I was jogging when a woman ran out of her house and handed me an invitation for a party. What was the invitation for? A weight loss treatment party. Guess the jogging isn't working. FML

Same thing different taste

That line is a cheesy cliché, so use it wisely

Today, I was at a party and saw this girl who used to be overweight. She'd lost a significant amount of weight and looked so good, I went to chat her up. She immediately told me to get lost. According to her, if I "didn’t appreciate her at her worst, I don’t deserve her at her best." FML

Today, I finally went running to help me start losing weight. I got 50 metres before someone in a passing car shouted out "Run fatty, run". I can't work up the courage to go for a run again. FML

Today, a girl I met recently asked if I wanted to go jogging with her, and I excitedly agreed. A while into our run, I ran out of breath and doubled over panting, all while she kept jogging and slowly disappeared down the street. What a way to spend time together. FML

Today, I went running for the first time in a few months. I had what I thought was an asthma attack. When I got home, I realized that it was not asthma, but instead I have gained so much weight that my running bra restricted my breathing. FML

Today, I went running. My girlfriend was so surprised at the fact that I'm exercising that she accused me of making it up so I could cheat on her. I'm just trying to get in shape. FML

Today, after several months of eating right, exercising, and weight loss, my mother has yet again arrived at my house, unannounced and with a very sugary cake. She's been doing this most weeks since I lost 50 pounds. FML

High school reunions blow anyway

By Spaceballs - 27/08/2023 00:02

Today, I got an invite to my high school reunion. With visions of wowing my former classmates, I set about starting a diet and exercise regimen. The universe had other plans. On my first run out in the fields, I managed to trip over an invisible pebble, fall into a puddle, and fuck my ankle up. The only thing I'm reuniting with now is my couch and a bag of ice. FML

Today, I was at the doctor's for a regular check-up. When my appointment was over and I was about to walk out, she yelled across the room in front of everyone, "Oh and if you could lose some weight, that'd be great." FML

Ugh... I know people think they're trying to help when they do stuff like this, but really, all it does is hurt the person's feelings and make you look like a total ass.

Oh no! That's horrible! A random person's insensitivity has definitely ruined your life forever! (Seriously, since you're jogging, you're obviously interested in weight loss and fitness, so she's naturally trying to get people to come to this. She may be getting a commission for it and is handing them out to anyone. Don't take it personally.)

No, OP. Keep up with the jogging, it takes time. And hell, why not try the party out as well? Anything to get you into shape is worth it I think

She could be having a party where she is trying to get people who might be interested to show up; because she gets paid to sign people up. I had a similar incident happen yesterday while I was at my friends house. Her dad was the one trying to get me interested in it when I am already on it. I know how it feels, OP. just keep jogging and good luck!!

Weight loss party? Sounds like some Herbasomething MLM...

Try not to take it too personally. It doesn't necessarily mean she thinks you need to lose weight, she just may have thought that a person who is taking the time to jog is interested in achieving or maintaining weight loss and might like to attend her party. It is somewhat insensitive, but that should say something about her manners, not your body.

If it's a weight loss party, it's probably because she's distributing some expensive and questionable treatment. Handing an invitation to a jogger of any size isn't an insult, it's savvy business. Keep up your jogging, you're doing it right!
