Popcorn my most favorite snack!



Recommended Posts

I told my hubby please do not buy popcorn for my first 3 weeks....lol I LOVE POPCORN!! Well my precious little girl (5 years old) says daddy we need popcorn for our movie night!! NOOOOOOO LOL How could we deny that little face! Her and I are popcorn lovers!! Needless to say I survived the wonderful aroma and crunchy sounds during our movie night...I sipped apple juice!! I survived!!!

Do any of you have a food like that.. popcorn is mine...I do not crave it buuuut it WAS a habitual food that I ate atleast 4 days a week. .The movie theater butter kind!! Hee hee.. but it was not as bad as I thought I do not crave anything yet..I just didn't want that to kick my cravings into gear and it didn't! Thank God!! Thank you for the suggestions!

I loved my homemade in the pot, shaking the pot while popcorn popping and added some melted butter. Just fresh! Now popcorn is probably the last thing you can after fully healed. Right?

@@bellabill yes the kind my daddy only makes!! Yes I will consult with my doctor first...but yes you have to be fully healed due to the fact that the corn kernels/ hulls may get caught in your staple line!!

I am able to eat popcorn but just small amounts. Not the whole jumbo bag like before.

I eat popcorn on occasion. I could eat it everyday, but I cut WAY down on the butter just a tiny little but. My sleeve was August 25th. I don't have issues with foods. Just in moderation. It's worked so far. I have never had a stall since August. I know a lot of people get those stalls, but for me never. The scale has moved every single time and that makes me happy. So I am just going to continue what I am doing then try to figure out how to maintain. 16.2 pounds to go.

That's the only way I make it. I LOVE popcorn too. I hope it's not banned for life after surgery. =(

I love popcorn, but its a slider for me. After adding up the actual calories uncludng the butter and oil I find the portion I was eating could go up to 500 cals. This being the case I only eat it on occation.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
