Ok...I was an idiot and never even thought about it !!  I have 3 nephews that are boy scouts, so of course if BOUGHT tons of popcorn lol  (yum by the way !).   Has anyone been able to tolerate popcorn or is it the worst NO NO ever?

I am 13 weeks out and eat small amounts of  air popped pop corn with out any problems. Its a great complex carb!!! try it in small amounts, thats the only way to know if you can handle it.

I've eaten popcorn a few times without any problems.  I waited until I was at least 8-9 months out though.  Take it slow!

I would check with your program, but I seem to remember the dietician saying not a good idea.  I didn't even try it until about a year out. And even then, I didn't feel great even then.  Even though popcorn is healthy, they promote protein snacking.  I know we can't be perfect all of the time though.  So I don't think once in a while will hurt.  I think it is still way to early for you though.

I eat popcorn at least once a week and have since 6 weeks after surgery. I haven't had any problem with it. I have even eaten the movie theater popcorn without butter. ( I know it's not a good choice but I did it!)
