I'll never try it bc it's not worth stretching. I was thinking about that soda stream concentrate stuff and just trying it in ice water...

I am 14 wks post op and have had a small glass of soda, diet of course - the only soda I drank. Nothing happened. My doctor's office said absolutely NO SODA but I was dying to try it. I miss drinking soda but am OK with ice tea, waters, etc.

My doctor said nothing carbonated or with caffeine for 3 weeks. I tried a Decaf coffee yesterday with soy milk and I couldn't drink it it made my stomach hurt :( so I might try again next week!

My doctor told me I can have soda after 6 weeks. There is no proven evidence that it stretches the pouch. I've researched it. The reason they don't want to drink pop is because it makes you crave sweets. I can't wait to have a diet pepsi!

My doctor said no soda ever, but if I had to it had to be flat. But I stopped drinking soda when I started the classes to get a referral to see surgeon. I kinda miss it but I also LOVE LOVE LOVE Starbucks Passion tea so I sip on that all day:)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
