I confess I hate food now.
I confess I don't always get my protien in.
I confess losing weight doesn't make everything easier.
I confess I don't always take my meds..vitamins.
I confess I am jealous other people can binge and I can't.
I confess all kinds of issues come up the more I lose.
I confess the lose skin is bothering me.

To be fair every doctor is different. I would ask your nutritionist. My dr says that it is a myth that it stretches out your stomach. He said the theory makes no so sence. That if you get built up air you will burp it out...naturally. Although he did say if you drink pop you have a good chance of getting addicted again and for some it causes horrible gas pain. So he advices his patients to stay away because as he says if you were addicted to it before the sleeve chances r you will get addicted after..why take the chance.
If you look through the threads you will see some people on here drink pop everyday and do just fine and have for year or more. I ess craving a sprite so bad that I got a sprite zero and swooshed it around my mouth for awhile then spit it out...I was afraid I would swollow it and have horrible gas. That made me stop craving it. Also my nutrtionist said if you crave it so bad you can't take it then keep a can of diet whatever and keep it in the fridge. Just sip every couple hours. Lots of her clients do that. But like I said your doc knows what is best for you so if yours says no I would go by him.
PS...6 weeks we were told we could drink pop.

Wow..missed u guys! So I need some advice and reassurance. I am 5 months out and very happy with my weight loss so far. I have 40 more lbs to lose till goal. So it was coming off so fast then all the sudden I hit onederland and it slowed down sooooooo fast. I am losing maybe 1 to 2 lbs at the most a week. No matter how hard i work or eat. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I m not freaking out just curious as to know other peoples journey....
