sash 0 Posted December 5, 2008 I have eaten popcorn since being banded. I only eat it when I go to the movies (I don't go that often) and I always order the kiddie bag. I can't ever finish it though. I see it as a treat.:thumbup: It is my absolute favorite snack of all time. I used to eat a whole microwave bag by myself before banding. I do not eat it at home anymore; it's just too much temptation for me to eat the whole thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jetsy62 0 Posted December 5, 2008 I was banded 9/23 and I eat popcorn. The good kind and in the mini bags. I share with my dog so it really does not turn out to be that much. This is my thoughts on being banded. I chose the band so I could eat more or less what I wanted. It is the portion size and the frequency that I needed to get under control and the band allows me to do that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I basically still eat whatever I want, it is just infrequently & not very much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tamthetex 0 Posted December 6, 2008 I am so excited to read this! I was banded on Nov. 20th and for some reason thought I would NEVER get to eat popcorn again! I love popcorn and once I go for my follow up visit and first fill I will try it, in moderation! Thank you for the information!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
