Popcorn

Is it ever ok to eat? I know the carbs and butter...... But will it make you sick?  I miss it so much. 

I made some popcorn for my daughter today, and ate 5 pieces.  I felt fine.  This is the second time I have done this.  I am 5 1/2 months post VSG. 

I have eaten it a couple of times, but only on days where I knew I was going to put in a hard workout.  I measured out half a serving, and that was enough.  I didn't try to eat it until around 5 and a half months out though.  I also didn't pop it...I bought a brand that was air popped so it was only 70 calories for 2 cups (half a serving).

I've eaten popcorn several times with no problems... but there in lies the problem... It is a major slider food for me.  I can eat it 'til the cows come home..... Not  a good choice!!

It is a slider food for me also, I was surprised at how much I could eat of the stuff.

I had some movie popcorn on 1/1/14, so about the 6 1/2 month mark from surgery.  Can't say the experience worked well though.  won't try that again for a while. 

I had the air popped.  I have not had any problems with it.  It's a better choice than cookies for me!  

Have I tried it?  Yup...and it went down just fine, a little too easy.   It's one of those foods that I can eat a lot of without feeling restriction (slider food) and it also triggers me to want more bad stuff.   

Major slider for me and I can, at a year out, eat it till the end of time!  Bummer, cause I love it!

As long as you chew the crap out of it and spit out the half cooked kernels you'll be fine.
