Hi

I must admit I am bad cause when I go to the movies I eat popcorn but I can honestly say I ate a couple of handfuls instead of an entire large bucket. I want to still be able to enjoy things as I did before but in smaller quantities. I am almost 5 months post op ( on the 29). I have lost almost a hundred pounds I am so happy with my sleeve.

I feel for you. I purposely didn't go out to eat or to the movies to avoid just those kinds of foods. I don't know if I could have held out if popcorn was held right under my nose like that. Fortunately for me, I couldn't stand the thought of eating anything at 10 days post-op.

Hang in there and

Keep Pimpin' that Sleeve!

Omg this is hard!!!! No popcorn nothing to snack on while watching a movie with my daughter!!! Help having a rough day!!!

I think I was two weeks out da first time I had popcorn. I cheated but I don't condone this behavior but I couldn't hold out. That popcorn smelled to good.

The people in your daily life should take it easy on the forbidden foods around you for a while. They should eat pizza out, nowhere near you.

It was pretty hard, but I'm a big girl and I was able to contain myself!! This was a decision that was made by me and I don't expect my family to change there ways because of my decision!!! I know the does and the dont's and I was able to contain myself!!! There will always be food around and you have to be strong!!! And I'm very happy I was strong that day!!!

Thanks Mindy

I'm not missing the popcorn as much as I am missing my large Diet Coke at the movies

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
