Lots of people eat popcorn. I do not because my doctor said no and also because it is a trigger food. Movie popcorn is very unhealthy. If you decide to try bring your own.

If I get too many of the little skins or husks built up around my band, I get ill. Kinda painful. Enjoy your evening! It's date night for me too! Woo-hoo!

Just chew it REALLY well! I'm not at the popcorn stage, but had a couple of handfuls of my husbands at the movies last weekend. I was fine, but I did focus on how I ate it.

I don't know man, if you got a HOT date, why risk any issues? Regardless, have a good time.

I could eat the whole tub of popcorn without an issue. It is a slider food. Unhealthy,full of fat,high cal, low nutrition. If you want to eat it that is your choice but remember the band is about losing weight - you should be basing your choices on what will best help you to achieve your weight loss goals.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
