It ain't so! I eat it all the time. I'm almost 8 months post op. You have to watch it though...it's easy to overeat it.

Forever? I read somewhere here that it was cleared after 8 weeks or so? I'm not 6 weeks yet, still on soft foods

[Bombs 353]

Thank god!

Everyone tolerates foods differently, but I'm almost 4 months out and eat popcorn on occasion with no problem...except for kernels getting stuck in my teeth

It is a slider food for me but it has not stopped me from eating it...It could make the last 36 lbs. harder to get to..lol

I enjoy popcorn when I go to the movies. I make mine at home in my air popper, spray some olive oil on it and sprinkle flavoring on it. It isn't nearly as bad as movie theatre popcorn and just as yummy.

Nearly as bad....That is giving to much credit to movie popcorn..Have you ever looked up what is really in that butter that they put on it...That stuff can kill you..

You are one smart lady to make your own...good for you!

It ain't so. I just had a single serving bag of microwave popcorn, more than enough to fill me up. 160 cals/bag.

I eat it every couple of weeks. I do notice that my weight doesnt move as much when I eat it several nights in a row but my weight doesnt go up. It is nice to be able to go to the movies and have a little now and then. It was difficult during the first few months when I wasnt able to eat it when we would go to the movies. Just dont rush things, only eat things when your nut and dr say you can and you will do just fine and eating popcorn before you know it!

Awesome. Thanks everyone!

For anyone who likes cheese popcorn, Unjury has a Protein cheese powder. I take some pop corn and put it in a baggy with the cheese powder and shake it up. Gives you some protein with the snack.< /p>

There was a looong pretty dramatic thread about popcorn recently, lol... Almost made me want to eat popcorn while I was reading it! Not something I would want to give up but will definitely not be eating it until I have least a couple of months of healing behind me... Nuts, which are also a favorite, we also have to wait a while for. Just won't have copious amounts of either.

How much popcorn do you eat? What fills you up?
