I was the same with Sun-Drop (local drink that is similar to Mountain Dew' date=' only better). I missed it during pre-op and for a couple of months after my surgery. Then I tried a couple of sips of one and I could no longer stand it....it was awful! Way too sweet and the carbonation hurt my stomach. I've not missed it since. I'm not saying to go and try a Dr. Pepper to rid you of the longing, I'm just saying that often our tastes change post-op and that there is a lot of truth to the reasons to avoid carbonated drinks. Hopefully your craving for it will disappear, or at least subside.[/quote']

Are you from southern Tennessee or north Alabama! I think I drank sun-drop before milk as a kid!

Six months out, and I treat myself to half a can on occasion. Makes me burp more often, and it fills me up quickly.

I thought I was going to miss soda..really badly. But I don't. Not one bit.

Now beer................I knew prior to the surgery that I would be giving it up. That is the only thing I have dripped a symbolic tear for.

Diet Dr. Pepper was my "drug of choice." I seriously didn't drink anything but it. I will allow myself an occasional one, poured over ice to let the bubbles go a little flat. It hurts if I forget that step! :blink:

I've had a few sodas in the last month or so- I was a diet coke addict. Now I have regular soda (made with sugar when I can findit) but it doesn't have even close to the same appeal that it used to. I've yet to finish a soda. Doesn't really seem that great to me. But makes the jack Daniels a bit better! :)

I was a total diet coke addict prior to surgery. I am now 12 days out, and for some reason I just don't care that much anymore. I don't know if it is because I know it will be unpleasant - I was really surprised how much "air" they put in those drinks when I took a sip the other day!! I really have not had much caffeine since day of surgery but u know what? It would be great to be free from that addiction, too! I'm tired of all these big powerful food companies doing everything they possibly can to get us all addicted to their products!!!!

I fell like this surgery is giving me the power to get all that stuff out of my life, and I guarantee ill be better off for it! I'm pretty sure it was not in Gods plan for me to drink 6 Diet Cokes a day!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
