What are you watching right now? Or waiting to see at the theaters?

What do you normally snack on at the movies, or drink after surgery?

I saw the new Halloween movie last weekend. I enjoyed it. I was only about 2 weeks post op though so I did not have anything to eat or drink there besides Water.

I get a Water (or sneak one in) and squirt some Mio in it. Will eat a little of hubby's popcorn and nibble on nuts in my pocket.

Wife and I went to see Slender Man when it came out a while back (1st movie in years in the theater). I wasn't consuming much then so just had my water bottle with me and drank from that throughout the movie. Not sure what I'd snack on now that I'm eating real food again. Definitely not anything from the snack counter, would have to think something up and bring it along.

I love movies, but haven't seen one at the theater that I've liked in quite a while. Blockbusters kinda a leave me....meh.

Have seen some good ones on Amazon, Hulu and Netflix, though.

They're not new, but here are a few recent favorites:

My First Mister 2001

A Man Called Ove (Swedish film) 2015

Departures (Japanese film) 2008

Love these films. SO good:)

Also love any of the old animations from (Japanese) Studio Ghibli....have been exploring them recently, and they're a treasure. Start with My Neighbor Totoro:)

      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.
