Well they have diet coke that is made with splenda. I have never had it personally but it does not have aspartame in it.

I thought carbonated beverages were a big no no being sleeved as it expands your stomach. I quit drinking diet beverages last Christmas trying to cut out artificial sweeteners. I do drink a lot of unsweetened ice tea. If you need sweetener use truvia.

I am being resleeved for a neofundus....I am actually try to do diet teas without aspartame or caffiene, not an easy thing to find, maybe i can brew some Decaf and add sweetener...what is suppose to be the safest sweetener at the current? I am not looking for carbantion, although they told me and others who post it does not affect the sleeve...Not sure what to believe anymore.... :wacko:

yeah i understand your pain! I was addicted to Diet Dr Pepper! Havent had one in over a year now and happy about that but still miss it from time to time.

I cant do plain Water either unless it is icy icy cold and only on occasion. I do alot of mio and disani drops in my Water but I am not sure what type of sweetner is in them.

I keep lemons around the house and make my own ice cold lemonade with whatever sweetener I have around the house (except for sugar).

I also make iced tea.

Hope this helps! I feel your pain!!!

I've had carbonated drinks lately...I was sleeved 4/29. It's not so much it stretching the sleeve, it's VERY uncomfortable, bordering on extremely painful. With that said, it'd be smarter to make your own drinks.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
