Soda

[rpil003 101]

At about 8 weeks post op, I started to drink 1 can of diet dr pepper per day, I sip through out the day. It keeps me sane because I don't drink coffee lol. I told my dr and he said that carbonation has not been proven to stretch the pouch, they say to avoid it because it MAY cause discomfort. And in my case, it has not. So he said one a day is ok. I make sure I eat right and take my Vitamins. And I'm doing fabulous.

I did drink diet soda & I decided it wasn't worth it so I gave it up all together. I'm not an alcoholic drinker but I did have 1 cup piña colada with rum over the summer time. About 1 month ago I had skinny lady rum that wasn't so bad. Haven't had any more drinks. I'm a cafe addict. I will not stop drinking cafe I don't drink it all day but I won't stop it.

I love coffee and like jenneliza, I just use the regular flavored Creamers (my one 35 calorie indulgence) and Splenda. I not only enjoy coffee, it absolutely has and continues to help me satisfy the occasional hunger pangs and cravings. And on top of that, it's good for you. Loaded with antioxidants and there is preliminary research indicating that it may be beneficial in preventing some types of cancer. I have two and sometimes three cups in a day and I ain't ever giving it up!

I am choosing to do neither. I have read of too many people gaining the weight back after doing one or both. Why risk it?

I'm with you kristy3k.
