  • 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

  • Just say no. Learn to love crystal light as a soda replacement

  • My dr actually said to let it get flat and drink it. Only diet.

I have been told no soda and I love diet coke. Do you guys get Soda Stream in America? If so, I bought the diet coke syrup that you buy for the soda stream and mix it with water. Hey presto, completely flat diet coke.

I've been wondering if that would work! We have Soda Stream here so I may consider that!

What about carbonated water like soda water or Voss water? I am not one for soda, I haven't been for years. But I do like voss water on occasion and it's just basically a carbonated flavorless water.

My Dr said to mix it a bit and get it a bit flat prior to drinking. She never said I could not have it.

I too was told no soda, I stopped 3 years ago and haven't missed it one bit.

My surgeon said absolutely no carbonation ever!

My surgeon said I can have soda as long as it's sugar free and diet. He said flat is best but can try with carbonation and see how I handle it. No I have not it, I love the strawberry lemonade Crystal light and teja unsweetened ice tea

I accidentally drank some coke at about 3 1/2 months out. I thought it was tea. That was the worst I have felt since having the surgery. I hope that never happens again.

I was told no soda because the chemicals make you hungry, but that carbonated water is okay as your sleeve will stay the same

I have had one soda a day for awhile now. I take tiny sips and always drink from a cup. It helps take some of the carbonation out. I have not had any problems and i have been loving my diet cream soda :)

I was told to put a little soda in a snack size zip lock bag and put it in your pocket. Your new stomach is the size of a snack size bag and you can see what the soda does to the bag and then decided if you want to put that into your body. Plus, any soda is a lot of calories, even diet soda that says no calories is full of stuff that once it hits your body turns into calories. On average a diet soda drinker gains 10 pounds a year instead of losing weight. Water is best and if you need some flavor crystal light works.
