How long after gastric bypass surgery can you eat 94% fat free microwave popcorn?

All doctors are different, but mine says no popcorn ever.

My doctor doesn't forbid popcorn, but the one and only time I have eaten it I frothed like crazy!  So I haven't touched it again.  But then again, when I froth I FROTH! ;) My daughter has had the surgery and is 2 years out on Wednesday.  She can eat it with no problems at all.   I guess this just means in my family it's trial and error.  Not sure that helped whatsoever, but hopefully it did :) Cynthia

I'm not ban from popcorn either  -- it is a good source of fiber.   I had a handful of popcorn at 8 weeks out and chewed it very well --- I did fine.  I've had it as a treat off and on ever since.  When I do have it I make sure I plan my meals for very low carbs the rest of the day.
