Had about a handful of my wife's popcorn while watching Wolverine yesterday. Thought I absolutely was going to die. Never again...

Terrible stomach cramps and actually felt light headed. Even thought I might vomit. I was just hoping to make it through the movie. Eventually the symptoms subsided thankfully.

That was one of my favorite foods and I guess I won't be having any of that any time soon. Oh well I have sworn off carbs any way.

I so miss popcorn. I have an old fashion popcorn machine in my kitchen. Which I may never use again. :-(

popcorn seems to be a slider food for many.

My bariatric nurse said she's had 2 patients that had to be admitted due to blockages. And they both were eating popcorn. I'm definitely staying away from popcorn.

That's scary because popcorn is a slider food for me.

I went to the movies for the first time since my surgery this past weekend. Before my surgery going to the movies meant a big bag of M&M's and buttered popcorn with a huge diet coke. Well, needless to say I thought going to the movies was not going to be any fun at all. But, it was OK - I snuck in my thermos of Water and was just fine.

3 months out, thought I can handle it. So far its the only food I tried that gave me such a bad reaction.

      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.
