There is always a challenge of when going to a movie theatre, of what to eat! I have previously brought with me in my purse, pork rinds, celery, Atkins bar (when not on induction), water of course. Any other suggestions out there? We're off to a movie tomorrow night with some friends, and I want to plan for the evening, so that the smell of popcorn doesn't absorb me.

Re: What to eat at a movie theatre?
Eat before you go of course so you aren't feeling weak and take those snacks with you... if you aren't on induction you can take nuts as well... or jicama, red bell pepper, etc...Highest wt 227

I love pistachios, and an even lower-carb choice is a bag of pumpkin or sunflower seeds. It takes me 2 full hours to finish a bag that yields under 10 carbs. Love that!!Sheila, Founder of SugarFreeSheila.com

Re: What to eat at a movie theatre?
I agree with Momof3greatgirls, there is no rule that you HAVE to munch when at the cinema!! I find I can manage not to want to eat at all if I have eaten beforehand.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

jicama is a root vegetable. If you follow this link http://www.foodsubs.com/Tubers.html and scroll to jicama it has a picture and a description of it.

Re: What to eat at a movie theatre?
Thx everyone for your suggestions. I agree it is a bad habit to eat while watching t.v., or going to a movie theatre! I have no problems at home, I don't eat while watching t.v. But when I am at a movie theatre, even if I have eaten before, I always yearn something. I'll make sure I have a huge bottle of water!But then I might be running to and from the bathroom
