yes. do I suggest going to the movies and ordering a big ol tub of buttery love? No. popcorn does have some nutritional value but it is also a slider food. It is easy to consume a lot because it dissolves into goo. there are at least a few more popcorn threads on here. do a search for more suggestions.

I took my kids on day 13 to a Pro soccer game. My daughter got a big bucket. I ate a handful.... Would have eaten half the bucket before, lol. It was delish and I personally, had no issue with it. We all react differently to different foods, but I plan on eating it here and there down the road.. However, do note, I am one of those who have had no pain and ease with liquids and foods..

I am seven weeks out and have had air popped popcorn a few times with no issues at all. It's really not that bad for you if you are selective in how you prepare it.

popcorn is one of my favorite Snacks (pre and post op). I don't have problems eating it, but it is a slider.

I have relegated it to a "family" food. I won't make popcorn for just me anymore. I make it and share. If I don't share, I will end up eating too much, which isn't good for me.

I will say that I had stalled from May to September. In September, I started losing again, and I have made it a point not to snack so much on carbs. It seems to be working, which is a reason not to have popcorn. :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
