Things that make ya go mmmmmm

movie theater popcorn after GBS?? Just wondering if anyone has tried it?

ohhhhhhhhhhhh bad bad bad for a post op! Loaded with carbs and fat, and zero nutritional value!

With that said... I did sneak a few bites of my husbands popcorn just recently. (I am almost a year out from surgery). I had no real problem with it, other than the guilt it created for me, as it just isn't something that is "pouch worthy". 

It is best to head into all of this with the mindset that we are going to make sure anything we put into us, is worthy of being put there. High protein, low carb and nutritious.  Keeping this mindset helps us stay accountable, and avoid the eventual regain, we will most likely experience if we do not follow this protocol.

None of us are perfect tho, and never ever will be...but we do try don't we? LOL.
A word of caution on the popcorn. It is known, especially in the early months post-op to get stuck in the opening leading to our pouch...and that can be a mighty painful thing.

Are you a popcorn lover?

I do like popcorn, but I love to pop my own, so maybe one day post op Ill be able to have healthy popcorn. I like movie popcorn but am not addicted or anything. In the past during diets I used to bring my own.

Thanks for the response. I am going to the movies tonight and I already ate to help but I know Ill still have some. Im going to get a kids popcorn and say goodby to movie popcorn for a long long time :)

 You have a fun time at the movie tonight! Enjoy that kiddie bag of popcorn. 

enjoy it now, because my doc really says it is dangerous. like patrece said, it can get stuck in your opening.  enjoy your show. vick

Thanks! My movie was great and so was my popcorn.

LOL...  GREAT! I'm glad you had a good time and enjoyed your popcorn!  Now... say BYE BYE to it !!!!  
Hugs!
