Fast Question!

I'm going to the movies ... Can I eat popcorn ??? Or not?

[goalseeker 695]

I don't have problem with popcorn. I do eat it one kernel at a time though. Try it and see how you do. Enjoy your movie

Yes, just be mindful that it's high in fat and calories, but in moderation sure!

For me, popcorn is a slider food. It goes down very easily.

No problems here... but I avoid the kernels!

The thing with popcorn is that is very salty and makes you thirsty, and since we shouldn't drink anything while eating or half an hour afterwards.....

Thank you guys!

I bring smartpop from home and then buy one of those shakers with the flavors in it at the theater to add flavor but they have super low calorie content, have a great movie!

depended on where u r in the banding procces I feel you can bend the rules just a bit and drink while eating popcorn at the movies only..Just be very mindful of what you are doing. Have a great time

Like line-dancer, I too will "splurge" and drink & eat popcorn at the occasional movie....that's the only time I do this. I don't have a problem with it when I do it; just did it yesterday in fact! It is, however, easier to over-eat at the movies, so be mindful of how much you are eating (especially if you're drinking too). I pre-measure out my popcorn in my tray before the movie starts & limit myself to only what I pour into my tray, otherwise I would keep eating and eating through the whole movie and OVER-EAT!! I even have a couple red vines during the movie too.

Very slippery slope! Do not drink while eating . EVER. If you would not do something in front of your doctor....

I ready your question...and since I got banded I have not thought of eating popcorn. It is so funny how different we all are. Hope you enjoyed your splurge.

Line-dancer and So Cal Amy you guys are sooo going to band hell for this!!!!!!

I guess everything in moderation is ok, just be careful

[depressed_bandster 72]

Honk.....I do not do ANYTHING without asking my doc first!!! I'm paranoid and probably his most annoying patient. I have his cell # & text him for every little question, anytime, anywhere I am....just to be sure!! I don't want to have any problems, so I ask him about everything! I would absolutely eat and drink popcorn in front of him...as I stated before, little portions of popcorn and when I'm eating and drinking at the movies, its even soda!!! Okayed by my doc!
