I was told no popcorn but the reason I dont eat it is because it is a trigger food and I will just want to keep eating. So easier for me to avoid it and other foods that affect me that way.

I still eat popcorn occasionally, though my surgeon advised not to.

There is not much nutritional value in popcorn, but perhaps TMI, it is still a very effective laxative for me.

Like others, I limit the amount I eat, and choose the lower calorie versions.

My surgeon said if that's what I need for a snack then fine but no Butter melted on it but I could add parmesan cheese , so once n a while I eat it but I agree with miss73 only the 100 calorie bag , but my doctor it's my fault if it gets stuck , he also tells me I should quit smoking but that hasn't happened yet lol one thing at a time lol

      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.
