Big bowl of popcorn = Bloating?

I am currently digging into a regular-sized bag of 94% fat-free buttered popcorn. About 320 calories, which is perfectly within my range for today. I just realized it will probably make me bloated over the next couple of days. Besides guzzling lots of water to flush the salt out of my system, does anyone have any tips for cutting the salt bloat? (I think next time I will pop my own so I don't get stuck with all the sodium!)

    Drink distilled water and maybe some black tea (with caffeine), but don't overdo the tea.

    Also, keep your sodium very low in other foods until the bloat is gone.
