Popcorn

Hey guys, what do you think about eating popcorn? I was wanting to take my daughter to the movies today. We always have popcorn there, I was wondering if I could have some. Of course not hands full of it or anything, but just nibble on it. What do you guys think? --Angela

Popcorn is my down fall and my dr told me that i could still have a small amount of it. But i dont think it would be a good idea to try it this soon out. I am still on a full liquid diet. That type of food takes allot to digest might not be good on the tummy just yet. Stacy

You are not very far out, so be very careful if you do. I was still on clear liquids at that stage. Maybe you could chew up a couple of pieces & spit them into a napkin. Darlene

popcorn, nuts, and gum do not disolve, so I would not risk it this early in the game. I would wait until the tummy is more 'mature', say around christmas.

I was cleared to an unrestricted diet as of this past Friday and had about 2 oz of popcorn at my son's b-day party. I had to eat only 1-2 kernels at a time and chew them really, really well. I had no problems with it, but I am further out than you are.

Angela - I had some papcorn at the movies last night and it went down with no problem! I chewed it thoroughly although I have to tell you, it didn't fill me up at all! It was my choice and I'm glad I did it. If you're not sure, give your nut a call! Hugs, Heather
