I make popcorn at home, on the stove with olive oil and no added salt. Yum! I was told to refraim from it in the very beginning. I don't overindulge, but I do enjoy it ever so often. It's a slider for me, so I am mindful.

I love pop corn, but its one of those things I don't tolerate well, I still eat a little bit, but I have to eat it very slowly It is on the Dr's list of foods that may not be tolerated well, but I had to try it. Good luck

I make it on the stove with oil too. Somehow I tolerate it fine. I bought a bag made just with salt. Not greasy and oh boy, not good. My guts are still rolling. Ugh. Back to popping my own!

I've never tried it with olive oil...hmmm.

That stinks! I hate microwave popcorn with a passion. I buy the white kernels and PPP it at home. I goofed and bought a bag of already popped and it did not agree with me.

Do you know the reason you can't have it?

According to my handout:

1. Kernels/shells can cause problems

2. Has empty calories

3. Are a slider food for many

4. Patients reported having problems digesting it

unfortunately corn (in any form) is one of those ingredients that my body does not agree with .. i was quite sad initially but id rather sulk about it than have to go through the pain it gives me.. i just avoid corn like the plague.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
