    xoxococojay got a reaction from k_nephew in To tell coworkers or not?   
    Nooooo! Don't tell. You didn't tell them you were fat so don't tell them you're not.

    I've had co workers analyze what im eating or not eating and ask me to many questions.

    I've even had super supportive co workers get on my nerves with silly nicknames or tell me im getting to thin etc. let them mind their own business for your own peace of mind.

    3) wishing each and every one of you continued and long term success!!! You got this, even when you think you don't, you really do.
    4) if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask

    Well i'm the self proclaimed purse queen, so i shove one of my many big ass purses with food lol.

    I'm so serious- i've brought in Jerky, sugar free Jello pudding, nuts, Protein chips, salads etc. you name it i've done it.

    I had surgery awhile ago so i have occasionally had popcorn since but even that i made my own mini bag and brought it. It made no sense for me to pay $9 for crappy popcorn when i can only eat a few spoonfuls.

    No problem vent away!
    Is it just me or are the majority of the people in this world are superficial and judgmental? I can't invest my time and energy in negative people.
    You said it well. We are having the same struggle mentally and physically. My hope is supportive people will continue on the site.
    Any forum you goto you get trolls...They are looking to argue and get attention. For them, negative attention is better than no attention at all. I wish people wouldn't take the bait and respond to them.

    I read an article recently where someone took a salad with them like xoxococojay said. I like that idea. May give it a try. Lots of items you can add to that. And the movie theater popcorn grosses me out, so I will make my own popcorn also. As I am thinking about this, if you go straight from home, you can probably bring almost anything since you aren't letting it sit out for long . Maybe even salmon and veggies...lol. Hey, we do what we gotta do.

    xoxococojay got a reaction from jess9395 in Protein Bars   
    Oh no to clarify i know it has carbs- i just don't care because the only time i eat them is when i put it in halo top ice cream as a rare treat. ( to me it just taste better than all the other ones i've tried) I don't eat Protein bars regularly, most of them taste awful to me, but whatever works for anyone else works too.

    I found Parmesan crips at whole foods in the specialty cheese section. I use them as chips and eat it with hummus, guac, bean dip etc.

    All my other high Protein Snacks are a bit boring after awhile like...smokehouse or sweet thai chili almonds and dried cranberries, spicy pork cracklins, jack links prime rib Jerky, Quest protein chips, salami/pepperoni and cheese

    People can be crappy and judgmental. You did the right thing by making this person a former friend...lol Let them be a miserable negative person. Enjoy the conversations with positive people. Keep them around you.... ignore the haters.
    An option to think about if you get outed.
    Be proud and blunt! post: I make no apologies for living an amazing healthy life. :-)

    I got outed at work in an interdepartmental meeting. It sucks, but other than telling the person (and anyone else who asks) that you prefer not to disclose your personal medical information, there's not much you can do. Hopefully, she'll honor your request and not discuss it further. It's a shame that people can't mind their own business.

    I agree with Orchards & Dragons. I would ask her to please not speak further about your personal medical business & that it isn’t her place to tell people.

    I am sorry you have to deal with this.
    The other advice is Good, but from what you said this person is not that respectful. You should still tell her to mind her business.
    Don't be ashamed that you took control of your life and health. Haters gonna hate. Just keep being your beautiful self.

    So i was sleeved in december of 2016, and i'm very very private about my journey. (For all kinds of reasons i want credit for all the work i'm putting in and i just don't want negativity or judgement around me.)
    But i'm in multiple groups online because i genuinely like helping other people through their journey.
    So a former friend found me in one of those groups and outed me, and now i'm humiliated. I'm not at all ashamed of my surgery, but i just feel like it's my business to tell and she's honestly the last person i would ever trust anyway. (She's known for doing horrible a*****e-ish things lol)
    So now what do i do? How did you handle that if someone has ever done that to you?
    I'm honestly trying to just get over it, but it's easier said than done.
