I am going out this weekend to catch a flick, and its been a long time since I have. Always being the one to get the goodies at the movies I am wondering if others fall to this temptation and if so how many. I am going to try and get a good snack before the movie and a good dinner after, what about between though?

Eating snacks at the movies is all part of the night out for me. You just have to have a little pop corn and a drink. Thats what I do anyway.

What film are you planning to see?

Whatever you decide I hope you have a good time!

When I'm going out to a movie or whatever while I'm dieting, I compensate for what I know will be excess calories by cutting down elsewhere during the day. I'll also add some extra exercise during the week a few times. You have to be able to indulge once in a while or you start feeling deprived which can really kill a dieter's motivation.

Since you rarely go to the movies, you can do it right and just forget your diet some and try for the traditional food of popcorn and a drink. Or you can take a small snack ziplock bag and put a few better snacks in it for the movie. That way you have a small bag of something if you want to eat and can sneak it out to munch on.

I don't like to eat when I'm watching a movie. If it's a great movie, I don't want food to take my mind off the movie for a moment, and if it's a bad movie, I'd rather walk out than sit there eating, looking around and suffering through it.

Whatever you do, have a nice time!

Just go for the small popcorn, without the butter poured over the top, and a small soda or water. And encourage the movie theatre to get with the times and have some healthy snacks!! I know they will probably look at you like you have lost your mind, but if enough people ask they will eventually provide what people demand.

I go with the other, get some junky foods and eat it. haha. Seriously though, do what you can to have the lowest amount of unwanted fats. But...remember not to spoil the night by not snacking.

I only go to the movies if it's something that I really want to see so if splurge on popcorn or something else it's not going to hurt my diet.

I get my popcorn and soda at the movies. It's so rare that I go that I don't worry about it. I do also take in a water bottle, because I want the soda to be a treat, not what I clench my thirst with.

I don't go much, but when I do I completely skip all refreshments. That way, I can make it though the movie without a potty break : ) and I save money. That candy is so overpriced.

oh, well. umn

ok i admit it sneak a subway veggie in.....

there I said it....

I ahve this backpack that I have allmy diabeets stuff in and i get a 6 inch subway veggie, piece of fruit and bottle of water.....

That wayu I acoid teh popcorn and teh expensive prices, A pretzle is 4 dollars a hot dog the same.....

I get a veggie meal for thats am price..

hubby sometimes takes in sandwiches too...

With the prices any more I seldom get more than a medium popcorn and drink of some sort. I just wish they would sell water in the same size containers as sodas instead of charging so much for bottled. I also make sure I pass on the butter.

When I do go to the movies which is rare because they are overprice I always say indulge with some popcorn and candy. In the end if you do not do it often it will not hurt anything.

Getting the popcorns and coke are a perfect combination as your snack in the movie. I can't control myself finishing the whole snack as it is so addicting.

Popcorn are best than anything else.
