Scared
Get back to what you know to do and just keep on trucking. There are chips with Protein you might try. I'm stalled right now and am embracing the heck out of it. I stalled lost 2 pounds and gained 2 pounds and lost 2 pounds. LOL You might deconstruct the snickers and see if your craving the peanuts or something else.

How to Handle (Rudeness)
I feel sometimes when your on the right path something always tries to get in your way. The devil, bad vibes whatever you believe or don't it's like a test. Just stay the course and laugh off the people like that. I would have been vague and said we all have issues...good luck. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using BariatricPal

What Is Your Biggest Fear?
I have typed and erased this twice. Regaining is a huge fear and this making my heart worse is another. So far all readings are good for my heart so good to go. Regaining is something I try not to think about because I cannot control that far out. All I can do is live day by day and choose to do the correct thing. I'm trying not to let either fear ruin enjoying today.

how to choose
I have a bum heart so my decision was based on the medication and how it is absorbed so rerouting anything was not an option.

Pizza
I scrape off the toppings. It's not the same but lowers the carbs.

Taking meds
I have medications I cannot miss, I was allowed to take specific ones that morning and was back on everything that evening. I think I was almost as worried about this as the surgery itself, one of my meds if you miss more than a dose you have to go inpatient to get back on. I took one pill at a time, took time between and everything went down fine no pain or anything.

It is me or all the commercials are about food? Ugh!
Had my sleeve 12/21/15, I don't have cable so it was crazy!!! I'v been watching hulu and every other commercial is about Oprah and how much she likes bread. lol I miss being able to pause or forward through those things.

They told us just no large chunky yogurts, tiny pieces were ok.

What would you do different?
fat_free said it all. I had too much Soup, broth, and yogurt on hand, our church food pantry is stocked up now. I did great with the sugar free pudding and Jello, but your taste buds are insane.

Unsolicited Online Dating Advice

Online dating
I signed up on Delightful.com on a whim just to see what it was like. Your invisible until you post a picture so I just looked around. I don't want to date till after my son graduates but was feeling particularly brave. I have so much respect for people that can put themselves out there, I am just so shy. Talking on the computer is easy, meeting someone and being able to speak, I'm just not there yet.

Ok, bit the bullet and ordered the book
I love the book and the sequel. I am interested in reading more so I will look at the other books people mention. What I took from the book was that women need to realize their worth and understand they need to set boundaries and expectations. I have suggested it to some college girls because knowledge is power. To me the 3 month rule is not about withholding but getting to know each other before going to the next level. Some women equate love and sex, it's not always the same thing. Iv been trying to find a book my Dad bought his girls long ago by Dr. Laura. What I remember of it was kind of the same thing, know your worth.

What Y'all Think- I
I guess I understand some of what she is saying. The weight can put up walls in certain areas, I think you are who your are and with WLS you can grow by pursuing some things that maybe you were afraid to or physically unable to. Maybe I'm just too new and some of the comments seemed true but flippant. But I also understood her comment to her friends that she was always this stylish person, she just gets to act on it more now. Maybe I'm projecting my fear of forgetting where I come from, I don't want to take for granted the struggle and become the girl who start to judge someone else's condition or journey. Thank you for sharing, still got me thinking and I will try some of her other videos.
