Popcorn Question....

I know that we are only supposed to eat a cup of food at a time, does this also include popcorn? It seems like you would not get any, if it was only a cup. I ate some at the movie, but only ate until I satisfied...

Thanks

Honestly, I've been too scared to try popcorn. I've read that a lot of people can't handle it and I'm too chicken to try it. I wouldn't want to even attempt eating popcorn from the movies, too much fat and calories IMHO.

I know in the past, popcorn didn't fill me up at all. So if I attempted to eat until satisfied, I would probably eat it all. I think I'll just stay away from it, for now anyway.

sat i went on a date with my wife. we went to longhorn, i ordered ribeye with mushrooms and onions. i cut it real small, and ate slowly. first time my wife ever finished a meal before me. i only ate about 6 bites, plus salad(no bread). At the movie (nat'l trasure2) i had a med size popcorn, ate very slow, lasted most the movie,...no problems. my dinner from longhorn made 4 meals! my wife is very pleased with our grocery bill.

I eat popcorn a lot. Some people can tolerate it and others can't. I happen to be able to eat popcorn when other things bother me. I save up by doing extra cardio, etc., and eat movie popcorn at the movies because it's one of my favorite things to do! I just get a small and eat one or two pieces at a time. Sometimes I can't finish the bag and other times I can....depends. It was one of those treats that I am glad I can still enjoy. I follow the plan of quit when you are full before you get that "one bite too many" syndrome!

Never had any problem with popcorn; my doctor even said it was fine no problems; His comment was: how could you go to the movies and not eat popcorn?" it's like chips, they break down easily and go down like chocolate!!!! Also 8 lapbanders in my office drink soda and have for over 4 years; not a problem

I have eaten popcorn on two occasion but not very much. Before the lapband I would eat all the popcorn insight.

I could never understand how thin people at the movies would leave their half eaten popcorn in their seats. I always wanted to go and pick it up and eat it but never did.

I can not believe that I am satisfied after just a couple of handfuls does not seem very fair.
