No soda ever. no carbonation. one of the 'rules'

Almost 5 weeks out and I had regular Coke because nothing else would settle my stomach that day. I loaded a glass with crushed ice so that the soda went flat first- very important step! Then, I didn't actually drink it, but ate the Coke flavored ice with a spoon just like mom used to give us when we were sick as kids. It worked!

What about ginger ale? Man I like soda every once in a while. I hate juice.

I'm 2 and 1/2 weeks out and I miss my soda. I miss my big gulp filled with 80% diet coke and the rest cherry coke. With a good amount of ice. My cousin actually said that diet coke stocks were down since my surgery. I think about my healing stomach and the acid bubbly soda hitting it and that seems to help my soda cravings. For now..... Hahaha

My doctor wants us to be soda-free for six months. After that he says we could drink it again with no issues but, and I quote, "why would you want to?"

I was told no more soda forever.... It's not good for sleeved patients....... Our stomachs are to small

10 Days post op had my first Starbucks today keeping it to 1 a day and over hydrating to help it. But Soda could care less Diet Coke got me FAT it causes craving
