"I can take the heat"

Perhaps someone *****ads this board would like to go to Chik-fil-a, and get a free sandwich for their SO or kidlets, and a salad or cup of soup for themselves. I think one of  the points of our friendship and fellowship here on the board, and in life in general is for us to feel as normal as possible while using our WLS tool. ISince I want to continue to socialize with my friends who did not have WLS, as well as my family, etc. I need to learn to go to just about any restaurant, including fast food restaurants, and make wise choices from their menus. I still share meals with my roommate often. She didn't have WLS, and didn't sign up for the low fat, low carb, caffiene and sugar free regime that I follow. She hasn't suffered any losses, and I haven't needed to compromise my plan. We found ways to do it right. Not agreeing with someone's post is one thing, we're all entitled to our own opinion. But saying it is the worst thing you've read here is unnecessary and quite extreme.

Hey there man!!!   So since you are judging this lady because she posted about a free chicken sandwich, does it mean that you have thrown out the evil boob TV out the window? You have cut the cord to the radio and never ever listen to it anymore? How about when you are driving down the road you have blinders on like horses do to keep you focus straight ahead???

When you have WLS you are not dead to the world you will eventually eat again all you have to do is work your tool to be successful.  

Who ever told you that you will never be able to eat a chicken sandwich ever again? Yes you will modify by getting rid of the bread and modify to your specifications. I went to chick file and had a few nuggets which is checken breast. The chicken sandwhich would be two meals for me.  

This board is for support not for knocking people down.  Remember you just had surgery and you are not dead you will be able to eat again you will just make the right choices instead of the wrong choices.  One suggestion for you..... If you don't like what you have read please move on if you don't have nothing nice to say!

sorry i didn't mean to offend, i was only stating my own opinion. the thread began with the  statement :

Ok..maybe this isnt the most appropriate thing to post on a WLS site, but Im gonna do it anyway.

Chik Fil-a is offering a free promotional sandwich today.  i found it it to be inappopriate considering the nature of obesityhelp.com SInce I have offended so many people by stating my measly opinion, I will just keep my mouth shut.  Please do not comment back to me because if my opinion is too insulting ( which was not the intent) than your opinions are too insulting to me. END OF STORY

DJNEILYJ, wow look what I missed when I stayed away from the computer this week. I hope by now everyone has moved on and understands that there will always be chicken in the world.  It is a good source of protein, and it is up to us to decide whether or not to eat the bun with it, or to pick off the breading if it's battered.  I for one am glad there are still fast food drive thrus because of my mobility issues.  It helps at times to be able to have(modified) healthy food choices this way.  Also, chik fila has nutritional content available for all their menu items for those of us who need to keep track.   I hope you will not stop coming to this forum. we need to have a variety of folks here on our MD forum. 

Hi Heather, I was away for a week and look what I missed.  I didn't get a sandwich but i would not have minded the information since I feel chicken is a good source of protein, and sometimes we need a drive thru healthy food choice.  We all have our food issues and need to get along and support one another so i hope everyone will continue to post here freely, with open minds and with the understanding that we are all different and cannot agree on every topic.
