Guest guest Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 I ate it all the time and it kept me form snacking on other stuff and it settled well.

Guest guest Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Hi Crystal, First, you are 6.5 months and still in your window of opportunity. You can stretch your pouch at this point and it will cause you to feel full easily. You should read pouch rules to understand how your pouch works so you will use it to your best advantage to lose as much weight as possible before your pouch stretches out and weight loss stops. Now, the note from Robin was important for what it didn't say. Look at her stats. She is at the end of her window of opportunity and she can eat all sorts of things that you shouldn't eat yet. It doesn't matter if her pouch stretches at this point. She is at a different stage in her use of her pouch than you are. Please copy the pouch rules for dummies on this site. Go to the lefthand column under Files and about 8 items down you will find " Pouch Rules for Dummies " . Copy it and learn it. Let us know how you are feeling about eating anything but protein to fill your pouch after you read it. Cathy > I am 6 1/2 months Post Op and down 133 pounds. I have recently been eating > popcorn.

Guest guest Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 I can see how you can eat much more popcorn than anything else. Put a piece of popped popcorn in a cup of water and see what it does. Popcorn after being chewed and mixed with saliva melts away to almost nothing because it is so much air. Because of that I can see how you can put more into a small space after being chewed. No scientific facts to back that up, just observation. Dora Popcorn Do Or DOn't???

However I notice I can eat more of it than anything else...but it " settles " any head hunger or cravings I have...But I thought I read something someone wrote about popcorn being a nono....PLEASE HELP.
