Good luck! You can do it!! :D

I was a total diet coke junkie, and gave it up the day before I started my pre op diet. It was hard the first couple days, but it's been 4 months now! I honestly don't even miss it anymore!

I used to love diet coke. Like it was in my veins, I didn't give it up until my pre op fast (2 days before surgery). But I'm proud to say, in the almost 5 months since my surgery, I have not even touched the stuff. Anything carbonated in fact. I have been tempted to see if I could drink it since my surgery but I never let myself because I'm half afraid I'll really hurt myself and I'm half afraid I won't hurt myself and I'll go back to my soda drinking ways.

Same thing with swelling carbs. Anything that can have the potential to hurt me gets avoided, I've gotten used to Water and things like 0 cal Powerade and propel zero and Crystal light. My usual drink when going out is now unsweetened iced tea (sweetened with splenda), and if I'm feeling naughty and want a bit more flavor I get a raspberry iced tea. Though I really like that diet Snapple half and half they just came out with.

Long story short, every once in awhile, I crave soda but there are so many options I can have that I just put it out of my mind

Good luck, it's always a good decision to go soda free, band or not.

It's good to break the addiction. I found that breaking the addiction and habit was the hardest part. I drink more Water and teas now. Because I was able to break the cycle, I'm able to drink the occasional soda and enjoy it now with no remorse. But it's not a complete part of my life anymore.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
