Maybe a dumb question, but...

Why are we not supposed to have carbonated drinks? I'm not talking about soda necessarily, I understand the sugar and calorie thing. But what about the carbonation?

I don't know but I'm 3 months out and I want a can of diet coke BAD

I was told carbonation introduces gas into the stomach and, not only causes pain but, takes up space that is needed for nutrients.

The carbonation hurts. I will have a few sips when i really want the taste.

I too have it sometimes. I love a Diet Coke. I can't drink it out of a can anymore because the carbonation is too strong. I do enjoy a fountain drink from time to time.

I do miss diet Pepsi. Maybe if I flatten it a bit?

[jackie-o 22]

I heard it causes ulcers

They told me the carbonation stretches the pouch. Don't know if I buy that, but I want to get off diet cokes anyway.

I bought some caffeine free diet dr. Pepper and let it get flat. Wonderful getting tired of Water already. Just needed something different

I miss my diet pepsi but i was also addicted to it i would guzzle 8-12 a day. So i have no plans on opening that can of worms. Sorry but some things you can't just do in moderation and for me that's one.
