mom2han 5 Posted October 20, 2012 The carbonation over time will stretch out your stomach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
It's all new 453 Posted October 20, 2012 The carbonation may or may not lead to stretching of the stomach - it is hotly debated. But even if there is a 1% chance it isn't worth it to me. I think this sounds kind of preachy - so feel free to ignore it. But my other thought is that beer just doesn't have nutrition, it has empty calories, and plenty of carbs. Is there anything else that might do as a small treat that is more in keeping with your nutritional goals? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kyzee 8 Posted October 26, 2012 I was sleeved 30th July, I have drunk beer for the last month or so, I just pour it into a glass and give it a stir, takes some bubbles out and makes it alot easier to drink, also drink wine n vodka all is fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
me_echo 0 Posted October 27, 2012 i had a beer at about 4 months and it was fine. i've tried liquor and wine since, but oddly, i find that beer agrees with my sleeve more than the others. my beer choices have changed, and i don't do super hoppy beers anymore, and i do let them sit for a minute to reduce the bubbles, but i haven't had any troubles with an occassional beer or two.

FishingNurse 1,211 Posted October 27, 2012 I'm 14 months out and carbonation has not stretched my sleeve. I have 2 sparkling waters everyday and 3-4 beers a week. I have no troubles, make goal in less than 9 months and I am easily maintaining now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
