POPCORN

[helloeverybody83]

Hello,

I've read a few times that popcorn is a big no-no after banding.
But I just tried a bag of ProperCorn (129 cals, and really nice) as a quick snack and feel fine...

Anyone had any probs with popcorn? Out of interest...

I'm a ballooner but popcorn is a no-go for me. Gets stuck on my balloon, eventually it comes back up and it's not nice.

Oh I thought you’d had a band! Silly me! Oh and tried a tiny bit on my finger tip of the PB2 this morning. YUM! Thanks for recommending x

Glad you like it. I find it's best when you make it with skimmed milk instead of water.

Sainsbury do bags of flavoured popcorn at 50-odd calories. I've eaten them without issue, I'm just careful to avoid the hard bits.

I do struggle with popcorn but if you can eat it then go for it! healthy low fat/sugar snack

Had a bypass and love popcorn. Surprised how much I can eat x

I have had a bypass and occasionally have a bag of sweet and salt popcorn it has caused no problems.

Its lovely!! BBQ, sour cream & chive and salt & vinegar flavours by butterkist are low fat, low sugar and only 105kcal per 20g (which is quarter of a big bag, if you can eat that amount) Im a bypassee and its fine for me, really tasty

I can eat popcorn too, and it's quite filling if in need of a snack

I went to the cinema with my daughter last friday, she sat next to me eating popcorn, the smell was amazing, but I resisted! even though she kept offering.

Yummmmmm popcorn,I make my own
I've got loads of flavours to sprinkle on them now.
My favourite is BACON SALT...(mouth watering now)

It's a seasoning called bacon salt x

 

[emmahc1975]

Thank you. I'll have a look for that. Never heard of it before

 

[donna44]

Sounds nice!

 

[emma-louise]

It's the best!...and hot air popcorn is full of nutrients.

Oh good glad it's not strictly forbidden. Don't plan to eat it often (maybe once a month?) - and I always spit out/throw away the hard bits. YAY! x
