sparkling water



Recommended Posts

My doctor says no carbonation ever. Ask your doctor what his rules are.

It all depends on whether it makes you uncomfortable or not. I can drink bubbles without a problem but I do drink them slowly. I think if I tried to chug them down it would be highly problematic.

Until you are healed from surgery the consensus amongst most doctors is NO carbonation (2-3 months)........after that it seems to vary...I drink a diet cafeine free pop a day and I did actually buy some sparkling Water this weekend...my doctor said it is OK as long as you aren't drinking empty calories. Also you can't drink carbonation with food - OUCH!

I neither cared for nor could tolerate sparkling Water, for several years postOp. The past several years though I do enjoy a can now & then of lemon flavor 'LaCroix'. Never with food. I did quite a study on the sparkling waters available years ago. It is a totally delightful hobby. Appolinaris and Ramos were 2 of my favorites, now very difficult to find. And beware, they mfgs can hardly stand to not put some kind of sweetener in an otherwise magnificent product. Resist all such non sense! Drink non-sparkling if you must.

I tried some because I didn't realize that is what I put in my shopping cart. It's a no go for me. Anything carbonated just doesn't feel good and I can't drink enough of it to quench my thirst.

I only just recently started drinking a tiny bit of 0 calorie carbonated beverage as a dessert. When I'm craving something sweet - it hits the spot, and fills me up. But damn the belches just come right up.

hi can you drink sparkling Water?

I asked that question to my nutritionist and patient coordinator. They just about jumped at me (outraged) that I would even consider it.

I'm going to guess "No" biggrin.gifrolleyes.gif

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
