Popcorn



Recommended Posts

Glad to read this. I bought my kids some 90 calorie snack size bags of kettle corn. I had a bag yesterday and wondered if it would be off limits forever after surgery.

How are you going to sneak the popcorn in. There are so many outside-popcorn nazis at the theatre it is impossible to get anything in. They practically do a pat down like the TSA.

Target sells a specially designed popcorn bowl. You add a tiny bit of oil ( or you can spray with Pam) and popcorn kernels. The microwave does the rest. It is soooooo much tastier that bagged microwave popcorn and its so much better for you. I use spray butter and salt. Sometimes I use salt, pepper and garlic seasoning!

      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.
