We love cherry coke and popcorn, but that's out of the question, especially during induction.

Any suggestions?

I sneak in some beef sticks or macadamia nuts and buy a diet coke. A cup of popcorn isnt THAT bad but who can stop at one cup!!!!!

I bring cut up cheese or low carb bars. I don't normally eat those any more - they have gotten too much "bad press", but for an occasional movie treat, I have my permission.

I haven't seen a thing they sell in there we can eat - aside from the water (or the diet soda) and the cheese nachos (hold the nachos).

I go the DELI and I have them slice some very thin salami then at home I microwave it for two minutes on a plate it become very crisp the tinner the better.I do the same with cheese, it is as crunchy as potato chips .Bag it and take it to the movie,a bit salty.Mozzarella cheese is not as salty as cheddar.It keeps well.

One does not have to eat at the movies. I haven't for years because they sell nothing healthy. Sometimes I go to a movie when I haven't eaten a meal in a while . . . or else by the time the movie is over, I will be overdo for food. So I do take sliced cucumbers and a hard boil egg, depending on my schedule. But I am gonna try that microwaved salami trick!

Hi --

One if thei things I love about popcorn -- and I LOVE popcorn! -- is the salty/crunchy bit. And since popcorn is right out I take along a bunch of peanuts. And water, lots of water, because wanter is good and because the nuts are salty.

The peanuts are easy enough to sneak in, but a big thing of water is harder to hide. I don't try to hide the water, and honestly no theater worker has ever challenged me yet. But I read a note from a woman who wrote, perhaps somewhere on this forum, that she told the theater workers she was diabetic and they left her alone. So that's what I'll say if anyone bothers me which, again, they have not so far.

Hope this helps -- RA Vimala
