Hey, don't worry!! I ate some popcorn last nite too. It was late and me and the bf were watching a movie and, well, popcorn just goes so well with movies Since being on maintenance I've had popcorn about 3 times (usually at the movie theatre, but sometimes, like last night, it was just a bag I popped at home). Here's the good news: I have never shown a gain the next day after eating popcorn. But I never overdo it either. I had about 3/4 of a "mini" size bag last night. Plus I gotta figure that even though popcorn is high glycemic, it DOES contain a fair amount of fiber and is therefore much much better than snacking on potato chips or pretzels. Popcorn is the only thing I've "cheated" with in the last 6 months, and because I really only consider it a "minor" cheat and because I know I can exercise portion control with it and because it truly is like eating "small piece of heaven", I don't every worry about it. Bottom line: Enjoy life, eat popcorn once in awhile, and DONT WORRY!
