One of my nurses said that popcorn is considered a "soft" or slider food. In general, not recommended as something that will keep you full.

Are you getting stuck on it?

I've had this question also. We have popcorn Day every Thursday at my office and I haven't tried it yet, since getting the band in early September. Will try it tomorrow!

i tried some this evening and it was good no complications but i do remember the dietician saying it was a slider food. I was just wondering how people are doing with it

The only problem I had was that it went down far too easily. It is definitely a slider food.< /p>

It's a slider food. It breaks down very quickly...even if you don't chew well.

popcorn may be a slider food, but it is also a whole grain.

Let's not forget that. :)

Goes down too well. Only have it if I go to a movie and then I get a kids meal. Small popcorn, Water or iced tea. and I choose the trail mix instead of candy.

$12 for a ticket, $7 for the snack! UGH

This is great news to me. I've been scared to try it. My husband has been wanting to go to a movie, but I've just been avoiding the whole thing. Now I can go get a kids portion and enjoy. We use to go every week to every other week. I think I will surprise hubby with a trip to the movies this weekend.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
