Soda dreams?

[deleteme 176]

So I've noticed over the past few weeks I've been dreaming about diet soda. I haven't had a diet Coke or Diet Pepsi since mid-June, but recently they've been popping ip in my dreams. However, in my dream I take a drink and then seem to be in instantaneous, world-ending pain. And then I wake up.

Anyone else have weird dreams?

I drink a diet coke with a squirt of sugar free vanilla Syrup almost every work day as my afternoon snack, it fills me up a little and kicks my sweet tooth. I do sort of dream about it on the weekends since I get it at the cafe at work!

Not according to my doc and his team, if you can tolerate diet soda or any other carbonated beverage it's fine. And if it keeps you from indulging in some calorie laden treat all the better.

It's more than an impression. The maker of the lap band actually forbids it. However, many still drink it and some docs allow it. It's like voiding the warranty of your band though. Lol.

I was a soda/pop junkie.. I now drink pure fruit juice mixed with sparkling Water. I know carbonated things can cause some problems but I sip really slowly to kill that urge..

Soda is bad for bands. Not only can it stretch your pouch, but it - like Aspirin can cause band erosion over time.

I took a sip of soda before allowing it to go flat first a couple of weeks ago and I have to be honest, the bubbling from the carbonation doesn't feel good in my mouth anymore. Not only that, it became apparent that the gas in it could easily expand my pouch. Not worth it. I craved it really bad at first, so I would let it get flat (keeping it uncapped for a few days) before drinking it. That got me over the hump, but now I don't even need to do that anymore. I'm in love with green, black and black currant tea now. NSV
