I dont remember why my doctor said so can someone help me and tell me why we can't drink coke anymore?

Definitely we are all different. Definitely don't mix it with food, but other than that I have no problem with soda. In any case, sometimes it help get sooth when my tummy is not feeling well.

I have only been banded for 2 months and before my first fill, I had no problems drinking soda at all. Since my fill, what I do is pour the soda over ice, that seems to take some of the carbonation out and as long as I drink it slowly I have no problems. Although, I have cut down from drinking almost a 12 pack of diet coke a day, to MAYBE one a day, which for me is a huge improvement. I drink alot of iced green tea and its just as satisfying for me

I have never had any problems with soda. Like they said everyone is different. Just to be safe until you know how you woolly react pour the soda into a big cup and let it sit pre 15 mins and stir it up. It should get most of the bubble out, which is what causes the calories. Just make sure you follow your drs order on how Mich water you drink daily, soda doesn't count and you never drink during meals. I drink a diet Dr peppr or Dr Pepper ten about everyday.

OK...I have to just make a correction to this....letting the soda sit for 15 mins does NOT get the calories out (although that would be a fantastic concept...just let your food sit for 15 mins and its calorie free...oh wouldnt that be wonderful!!!)

My phone autocorrected. I meant bubbles, which is what causes the stomach problems and gas. I only still diet soda so there are no calories. Also don't add ice to it until after you let it sit out. But always remember to check with your Dr.

I was just teasin Sam....I knew you didnt mean calories...but, hey...what a concept HAHA

I wish though, that would awesome! Regular spew taste weird to me though. I knew you were, stupid autocorrect.

You MUST have an iPhone...because its really making me laugh with the auto correct. When I read this on my phone, my tea almost came out my nose I laughed so hard

"Regular spew taste weird to me though." lmbo
