I've found that I get totally smashed on one drink since I've been sleeved. I am not a drinker and I don't like that feeling. I can't even be sociable.

I thought we couldnt have no carbonated drinks????

That's a debatable issue ... some surgeons say no ... others say it's ok if there is no pain or issues.

I've been drinking diet sodas since 3 months out & have had no issues. Just have to watch the caffeine so I don't dehydrate.

Of course, listen to your surgeon and your plan.

Pour your beer over ice and sip it like any other liquid.< img src="https://s.bariatricpal.com/uploads/emoticons/default_cool.png" alt="B)" />

Aw, is it even worth it if you are drinking an MGD 64? That is the most watered down beer ever. :(

Bud Light tastes pretty good over ice.;) Can't guzzle like before, but one or two now and then hit the spot.

I've actually found very little problems with ANY amount of Fluid, as long as I don't drink too fast. Now, solids -- yeah, I fill up really fast and get stuck easy. But fluids? Even carbonated fluids? No problem.

That being said, Diet Coke is pretty much undrinkable (and it used to be just about my favorite) these days because of the acid, not the carbonation. It just kills me...

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
