Movies

I was wondering what everyone munches on when the go to the movie theater. I love going to the movies and I used to eat popcorn, soft pretzels, and candy. Popcorn is totally off my list according to the doc. And I had my surgery on July 27th and I am already on normal food. Hopefully someone has some creative ideas cause I don't have any!

This is a hard one for me too because I LOVE popcorn and my DH always has to have it. Last time we went I took some sea-salted almonds. Not as good as popcorn, but it gave me Protein and something to crunch on!

I don't munch anymore I just take a bottle of Water. Mindless munching at the movies is one of the things that helped make us fat!

I just went to the movies, and took a bottle of flavored water. The dietician I see in the program I'm in doesn't allow snacking between meals, only 3 meals a day with measured portion sizes.

I love the movies. I go pretty regularly. I munch on bottled Water and thats about it. Sometimes my fiancee gets a hot dog or something but he always finishes it before the movie starts so hes not eating during the movie (sometimes that makes me wish a little that I were also eating during the movie).

I do give myself a treat occasionally but I try not to associate it with the movies, and rather just be mindful while I'm eating (if I eat during the movie, it will be completely mindless).

I go to the movies often with my son (think....Transformers, G-Force, GI Joe..... :cool:)

I usually get him a small popcorn and I indulge in a couple of bites. I also always bring my own Water with crystal light in it and any combination of the following: sf candy, beef Jerky, nut & high Fiber Cereal mix, Protein Bar. Ease into the changes. I used to feel a little deprived in the beginning, but honestly, now that I am at my "sweet spot", I often drink the water and don't even touch the snacks!
