Today, my mom once again commented on how I need to work out. It has come to the point that I now walk around in exercise clothes and have a bottle of water/fake sweat to put on, just so she thinks I work out. This is how lazy I am. FML

Today, I was told how cruel and selfish I am for rubbing my weight loss in my mom’s face. I’ve literally begged my mom to walk, jog, workout with me for months. She went exactly once. She complained the whole time, then called me a bitch for finishing my run while she sat in the car. FML

Cautionary tale

By jogginglikeitsmyjob - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff - United States - Boston

Today, I had trouble carrying a box upstairs because my arms were sore from working out. My mom asked me, "Why are you working out so much then?" I didn't have the heart to tell her it was because of her 100-pound weight gain and that I didn't want to end up looking like her. FML

Today, I walked downstairs in a new outfit, after dieting for 3 months, and losing just over 20 pounds. My mom took one look at me and said "You'd better keep going." FML

Mother knows best

Today, while visiting my parents, I observed that I've been able to visit more often because I've avoided getting sick the whole year. My mother responded by reminding me that I need to get my act together if I'm going to lose weight and get healthier. Not the reaction I hoped for, Mom. FML

Today, my boyfriend's mother called me lazy. Her days consist of sitting on her couch watching Fox News. I'm a college athlete who also has a part-time job, yet I'm the lazy one. FML

Today, I told my dad I was gonna to start working out again. He looked at me with honest confusion on his face and said, "You worked out before?" My mother started laughing. She was all the way upstairs. FML

Ahh, my dad does that to me too. Just ignore it, I'm not trying to say rebel, but dont go out of your way to make it look like you're doing something you're not. Either do it or don't.

Or just do it because it's good for you and you should be doing it anyway. Don't ignore it. Your dad is pestering you for a reason.

Just try it. If to you do it for a week, then you'll be used to it and do it all the time. Or, if youre really lazy, eat perfectly.

You're putting so much effort into not exercising that you might as well just workout!

Why don't you just get off your lazy ass and go get on the elliptical? Those things are fun.(:

I don't see what's so hard about working out. At least try weight watchers if you're trying to lose weight but you gotta keep on top of it. It's stupid just to be faking exercising when you can put all that effort in something else.
