Popcorn was a bad idea

 I got so used to munching on popcorn as a low cal snack pre-op that I thought I'd try it in week 3 post-op...ugh. Not a great idea...I only ate a handful, one at a time, but I've been green with nausea ever since...I miss the crunchies...but I won't do that again for a while!  : _
Great to meet some of you at the Support Group on Monday and Thanks to the clothing fairie for the donation!!

You will be able to eat popcorn again, you just need to wait a little longer. I started eating popcorn again at around 3 months post op. I can eat the microwave kind with no problem, but I can't eat the movie theater popcorn, the oil it is cooked in makes me dump.

Sorry you're not feeling well after the popcorn snack.  I was able to eat it soon after surgery (can't remember exact month.)  That was 1 of the things I could keep down.  I had to start buying the mini bags because I could easily eat at least 3/4 of a big bag.  My favorite is Pop Sectre Homestyle.  I can't do the Smart Pop stuff.  It's just not worth it to me.  Try again in about month and let us know how you feel.

I was not able to eat popcorn until about 3 months out.  It probably got stuck, even though you ate one at a time.  Popcorn tends to swell!!! 

Try going on to nashua nutrition and ordering the crunches from Kay's naturals (I think).  Not only do they taste good, but they have protein also.  It will give you the crunchy texture you need. 

Nashua nutrition is online, and you can visit their store in Nashua also.
