Craving Pepsi



Recommended Posts

Just say no! :) I havent had a soda since before my first procedure in 2015 - so probably 4 solid years now. Occasionally I DO get a craving, especially if I am out to dinner with people guzzling down sodas. Root Beer for some reason is like a huge one. I've allowed myself sips here and there over the years and honestly? The taste is TERRIBLE to me now and keeps the cravings away for a while. You can do it!

I never was a big soda drinker, that being said, I have had some soda post op. I'm 10 months post op though. It wasn't worth it. It just made me feel sick. Don't do it!

Soda hurts my belly SOOOO much. Once in a while when I am with my husband and kids at dinner if they have soda I may sneak a sip, and still 2.5 years out, its hurts so bad I cant even be bothered with it for months after that sip. Youre not missing anything ! Keep your determination strong!!

So Jewel (grocery store) by mrle had these to put in Water. Theres a root beer one and cream soda. The root beer tastes just like diet root beer but without the carbonation! There was also another one with cherry coke cause my favorite pop was cherry coke zero! It tastes ok but not as good as the root beer. Try them out...they are like 5 calories and sugar free 1547501266215.jpeg

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
