I don't know, but I can put away a big bowl of it. I know I'm not supposed to, but it goes down real easy.

popcorn is a slider food so it's very easy to over-eat it. The only way you can be sure you're not eating to much is to measure your portions and log your calories.

popcorn is my go to snack food when I want to feel like I'm splurging. I allow myself to have 3 cups with 1 Tbs of melted butter. Like Missy said, I do measure the portions and log the calories/fat.

I limit mine to a 100 calorie portion.

I was about 3 years postOp before I ever felt the urge to try popcorn again...one of my old favorites!

I rarely eat it even now, but instead of "the TUB" manage with the smallest dry version at the movie (maybe twice a year) and perhaps once every 3 or 4 months at home.

The micro stuff you pop, sometimes I will eat nearly 1/2 a bag of it...and actually DO 'stop' before it's gone.

popcorn is also my "go to" food. I can't eat a huge big bowl, but I can still eat a microwave bag...mostly. My surgeon says no restrictions on popcorn.

I like popcorn and can eat it, but I usually end up barfing up the husks about 30 minutes later--maybe I just eat it too quickly? Probably--that's definitely my MO! Haha!

It's funny you asked about popcorn. I wondered if it was a food that would get stuck ornot!

I'm cleaning my pantry in preparation (band date 14 Feb! Yay!!) and I'd bought from Sams a box of 100 calorie bags of Pop Secret.

So...I guess I better hold on to them huh? I love popcorn too!
