I'm not there yet but I had a sleeve. Can you ever eat popcorn again?

Yes, but in moderation. I first had it again around 3 mths out. When I do have it I either air pop it or buy the skinny pop brand.

Yup. It's one of the easiest things for me to eat and digest.

It's not your best choice, but really, with the sleeve, most people can eat just about anything.

I love popcorn, but I don't eat it often because I know it's empty carbs and calories. There are so many better choices out there and I'd rather make great choices MOST of the time, so I can make not so good choices once in awhile.

There is a brand called smartlife and they have a light version that is only 35 calories per cup and it is very good. I eat a cup a few times a week with my nuts blessing. For me it helps fill the void of not eating chips.< /p>

It's still high in carbohydrates. It is also a slider food for some people. popcorn should be a rare treat.

Thanks for the advice. Yes, I'm aware of the calories. I do air popcorn use very little salt and butter.

It's not the calories or the salt or the butter. :D It's the empty carbs that really aren't recommended, especially when you are in your losing stage.

Once you have figured out maintenance, have at it, but until then *I'd SUGGEST* you proceed with caution.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
