IAmJacksLapBand 5 Posted May 27, 2010 I have one every few days. Takes me 8 hours to finish a 20 oz bottle. I used to have 2 or 3 in a day. Mostly I stick to Water and iced tea with no sweetener. That way I don't have to worry about all the crazy burping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amprice4 0 Posted May 30, 2010 It's crazy how much doctors instructions differ. My surgeon said it was ok to have carbonated drinks as long as it doesn't bother you. I have a diet coke every now and then. I also drink beer occasionally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bambam31 168 Posted June 3, 2010 I haven't drank the crap for over 20 years. It has no nutritional OR physiological value. Nope... but some days it has psychological value... :biggrin: My doc never had an issue with the consumption of diet soda so I drink it occasionally. I drink beer more often than soda but neither give me any problems. Brad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OldSchool76 0 Posted June 6, 2010 I have not had a carbonated soda but I must admit, I have has a few beers since surgery. While I drink them much more slowly, i have never had any horrific side effects. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
