The best way to calculate the amount of pop corn you are eating, is this equation: Every gram of hydrocarbate is equivalant to 4 Calories.3.5 Oz is 99 grams ,so here we have 99gramsX4calories per gram= 396 calories. Now according to american diebetes association ( http://www.Diabetes.org/living-with-diabetes/treatment-and-care/ask-the-expert/ask-the-dietitian/archives/is-popcorn-a-healthy-snack.html ) every 3 cups of Pop corn is less than 100 calories , so per say lets say 3 cups is 100 calories, therefore 396 claories over 100 claories make up 3.96 servings of 3 cups, so 3.96x3= 11.88 or 12 cups. This is just popcorn alone, adding oil or butter adds to the calories, and again if you convert those extra calories to the equivalance of cups ( gram, calorie ratio) you will then have a figure of how many cups of pop corn exactly you have eaten.
