Noturningback15 45 Posted October 29, 2010 I am guilty!!!!!! If I have some it's fritos. As a matter of fact I had some in some chili and cheese about an hour ago...:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phranp 46 Posted October 29, 2010 Strange thing happened after lapband ... I don't really like potatoe chips anymore. I was a big fan before the band, but now ... not so much. YAY! Have to admit though, I linger at the Frito display before walking away. LOL:wink2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melissannde 41 Posted October 29, 2010 If you really must indulge...look for Pop chips. They're not fried, not baked.. but popped. Much lower in calories than regular and much tastier than baked. I can find small bags (100 calorie) at Books-a-Million and larger bags at Target. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can find small bags (100 calorie) at Books-a-Million and larger bags at Target. Pop chips are awesome! I have found that I am able to eat any type of chip but since my band I dont like chocolate anymore and I used to be a chocoahalic.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
honk 780 Posted October 30, 2010 I used to think the baked potato chips were a good snack. For me they are a problem because I would just eat them all at once. They really don't serve a purpose, just calories with no redeaming value. If you are going to have carbs have an apple or some grapes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElfiePoo 109 Posted October 30, 2010 I *love* chips but they don't love me. Not sure how we got this mindset in our society that eating junk food is normal and to not eat it is depriving ourselves but I've decided that I deserve better. Now when I feel in the need for a snack, I'm reaching for a healthy alternative. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mommyto1 1 Posted October 30, 2010 I'm only 2 weeks post-op so I haven't even thought of chips yet, but I love Popchips. Amazon has some great deals on Popchips every few months for the individual bags. My whole family enjoys them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparkplug 106 Posted October 30, 2010 I too, am guilty of indulging in eating potato chips, you cannot have just one, as they say! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MellieW 0 Posted October 30, 2010 I've always had a weakness for Kettle brand Baked Salt and Vinegar chips. I have only had them once since I was banded and I allowed myself 6 chips. It was enough to kill the craving and didn't seem to affect my weight loss at all. :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TracyNYC 4 Posted October 30, 2010 I like Sun chips Garden Salsa. Only indulge once in a while as I have no will power over them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Awkward customer 5 Posted October 30, 2010 I used to buy a packet containing 6 bags of crisps (which is what we call potato chips in England) and eat them all in one go, sometimes as sandwiches with bread and butter and crisps in the sandwiches. Now, although I can eat 6 bags if I want to, it feels uncomfortable. I can feel the crisps just sitting there in the pouch and not going anywhere, which encourages me not to have too many.
