It's the one thing I'm a little afraid to try. I can tolerate any food i've eaten so far. When I eat dark berries, however, the seeds give me some minor irritation, but not bad. So...I'm a little hesitant about the little hulls in the popcorn.< /p>

Also, I think I haven't bothered with it, because I'm so picky about every bite that goes in my mouth now. 800 calories isn't much to work with, so I make sure every bite is nutritionally sound. The popcorn would be too high in carbs and no Protein, etc... Just sayin'...

I eat it every so often and I'm almost two months out.

I "can," but don't. Its a total slider food for me- tried it once around 5 months out and realized I could eat it forever without feeling full.

I don't have a problem with popcorn at all. I have been able to eat anything I have tried. It's all about making healthy choices and moderation. :)

Was that supposed to be rude?? I was asking because I am going to the movies.

I think tonia86 means that lettuce is very fibrousy-is that a word?-and that if your sleeve is okay on salad then it should be okay with popcorn. ;)

I eat popcorn several times a week. I get the OR reduced fat 100 calorie bags. After popping, I melt some reduced fat cheese over it and it is a great healthy snack. I can eat salads with no problems, although I mostly stick to raw veggies or stir frys to get my produce in. I found the ONE food that I can not tolerate today. Stuffed jalepenos made with pickled peppers. I can eat all foods spicy no problem and have eaten many stuffed jalepenos, but for whatever reason grilled stuffed pickled peppers and I don't get along.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
