Got confused today re eating bugles ....

Teeth breaking one:

Then I thought, perhaps a spelling mistake for:

This reminded me of yet another spelling example (very cute though):

Finally I found this:

And amazingly there is a war regarding bugles on BP!

I read it all. It's fine everyone needs something to laugh at. I apologized this am. If people are still making fun of me it's fine... I had a really bad day yesterday if it brings humor, name-calling so be it. I learned a lot from it all. It is supposed to be supportive I agree.

Don't hesitate to vent on your journey..this process is hard for ALL of us..some handled it different but it doesn't make them better..I'm sure we all tried something we shouldn't have during our process ..no matter where in the process we are..some just in the closet with it..Best of luck to you..and keep on BP to read the answers you seek..

Wow really? How is this post or most of the replies ok at all? You people should be ashamed of yourselves for making fun of another member. A person who is obviously new and was not given the information she should have been given. Instead of helping her you shame her? Bullying is not humor and it is not ok.

It's amusing to me at this point. I mean we are adults. ;) There is a difference between making fun of someone and humor. I apologized yet some people are still going...worse yet the OP was made after my apology.... I am ok. I have had huge support and several DMs. I appreciate the support and the people that get it. I went to Dr today and they set me up with everything I need. I went on this site for help because I didn't have the information. If people turn it into negative feedback then it's their issue. We all wish and hope for success. There will always be the people out there excited for an argument or are the experts that make you feel stupif. I am excited for my journey!! Thanks for the support!!!

Why do people keep coming to RANTS AND RAVES to complain about how rude we are?

WTF are we supposed to do when just about EVERYDAY some one who knows damn well they are supposed to be on liquids goes on line hoping to get permission from non medically trained STRANGERS to eat bacon, nachos, sausage, Swedish fish, spam and God only knows what else?

Beagles aren't Kosher. Bugles barely qualify as food.

I just can't with people really.

I am not by any stretch of the imagination a vet. I'm not even four months out yet and I struggle everyday to do right by my new normal - especially since, as they say, they did surgery on my stomach, not my brain.

However no one out there can possibly think for a second that eating any kind of chip during such a drastic attempt at weight loss is advisable.

This isn't joining weight watchers and going for an evening walk - this is committing to an extensive process of evaluation and undertaking major surgery.

I'll support people who want to lament the mental and emotional difficulties of wls. I'll support people dealing with side effects or unexpected lifestyle changes as a result of wls. Ill support people who hit road blocks. I'll Celebrate with people who are finding joy on the journey.

But if your eating the same crap that got you into this mess that soon after surgery you should just expect to get roasted. I don't really care what info you had or didn't have - some things are just common sense.

Pull yourself together and get with the program.

Ironically I didn't even respond to the original thread - but I saw an opportunity - as the proud owner of a meaty looking beagle for some levity and I grabbed on.

Perhaps my comment about the crunch was a little too much - but then occasionally I can be a little snarkier than I plan to be.

I'm not proud of that - I'll discuss it with my conscience later.

Different time changes for few of us, hence we can't all know about "the latest post, etc"

As I mentioned earlier, I was puzzled about bugles, not sure if we have it here in Australia.

At first I thought: "bagels", this reminded me of beagles that I adore, as well as pugs.

I am sorry if a certain poster or two feel offended, this was NOT Personal !!!

So, for goodness sake, have a bugle, bagel, beagle, whatever

and listen to the Buggles:

And to all the hangry people, put a smile on your dial, not everything is about you.

As for being called a "BULLY", I choose not to be offended.

Feel free to read all of my 1,000 plus posts and find one that I was "bullying" someone, especially a newbie ...

This anger defies logic. This is why most of the great people here are leaving or left already.

BP will be run by Newbies full of non-experience and lousy advice.

Merry Christmas to you all.

Don't forget the Diet Coke......

Same here... I never saw the post from the newbie, this post wasn't about a newbies question. But rather about the OP observation of how a bugle if it was spelled correctly, would be on the diet plan. And then her following thought processes as she was unfamiliar with the snack food Bugles.

It was hilarious until it was sidetracked by people saying it was rude and mean etc. I am thinking to myself, how in the world is this mean and rude? Then someone comes along and has to knock our building blocks over and link this thread to another thread.

People If we can't laugh at the mundane and inane we create a generation of people that are requiring "safe spaces". Oh wait to late. The only safe space is the play pen at your Mama's, if you can't handle the real world, go back to that while those of us that have figured out how to survive in a "mean" world continue to get the joke about words and the hilarity that the lack of knowledge can cause.
