Planning to go see The Avengers tonight with the kiddies. First movie since my botched colonoscopy almost 8 weeks ago.
BUT WHAT TO EAT? I'd probably be ok with popcorn now, but there's no way in hell I'm risking it. Reeces Pieces, M&M's, Goober's - chocolate chocolate chocolate. No way. Chance of constipation.
Is there ANYTHING AT ALL I can munch on in the theatre that is very low risk of causing problems? Suggestions, anyone?

Yikes, probably better to sneak in your own snacks! If you must munch, do so with great restraint! Since chocolate constipates you, stick with something like skittles or good n plenty or Dots or twizzlers. Wise to steer clear of popcorn!
Have fun, and be careful out there. The movie snack bar is full of peril!

You know you are allowed to bring your own snack to a theater if they don't offer anything you can eat.
Enjoy the film! let me know if Avengers is good.

Well thanks to the fact that I have eliminated caffeine, I slept through most of it. I didn't care for the first 30 minutes, but the last 45 minutes were much better. Still I didn't enjoy it NEARLY as much as all the reviews, or my kids. Must have slept through the best parts.
I didn't not eat or drink anything throughout the movie, which took away a good bit of my enjoyment. But I think I came up with a great idea for next time: dried fruit! I found these dried apple slivers at the grocery store, and some mix of dried blueberries, cranberries and cherries. I picked up a couple of packs for next time.

yeah, pigging out at the movies is no longer an option for us is it? When I went with my son, I brought a baggie of grapes...at least I was recreating the action of eating a bag of popcorn...lol...I have resigned myself to the fact that I have gotten myself into this mess by eating so poorly before...sorry you had such bad luck w/colonoscopy.

Gummie bears have never bothered me, maybe those could be an option? Or those candy fruit snacks?
