One of my nurses said that popcorn is considered a "soft" or slider food. In general, not recommended as something that will keep you full.

Are you getting stuck on it?

I've had this question also. We have popcorn Day every Thursday at my office and I haven't tried it yet, since getting the band in early September. Will try it tomorrow!

i tried some this evening and it was good no complications but i do remember the dietician saying it was a slider food. I was just wondering how people are doing with it

The only problem I had was that it went down far too easily. It is definitely a slider food.< /p>

It's a slider food. It breaks down very quickly...even if you don't chew well.

popcorn may be a slider food, but it is also a whole grain.

Let's not forget that. :)

Goes down too well. Only have it if I go to a movie and then I get a kids meal. Small popcorn, Water or iced tea. and I choose the trail mix instead of candy.

$12 for a ticket, $7 for the snack! UGH

This is great news to me. I've been scared to try it. My husband has been wanting to go to a movie, but I've just been avoiding the whole thing. Now I can go get a kids portion and enjoy. We use to go every week to every other week. I think I will surprise hubby with a trip to the movies this weekend.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
