Does anyone know if we will ever be able to have carbonated drinks again?

I wasn't much of a soda drinker but I have been having a craving for pepsi!

I know what you mean. I wasn't much of a soda drinker either, but man lately have I been wanting a hard cider bad.

I was told no because the carbonation can stretch the pouch and drinking soda increases your appetite, especially diet.

That does sound good too. I'll ask the doc and see what he has to say. I hope it doesn't stretch the stomach or increase appetite. :-(

It's been so frustrating trying to reconnect. But...I'm down about 80 pounds. Working out really helped jump start things and get me over those initial stalls.

Me checking into the hospital August 30,2013 and me December 26,2013

I'm down exactly 50 since surgery, and 80 for the year. Not as fast as I had hoped and some manage. However, my checkup yesterday really put it into perspective. With my body fat/muscle percentages, I have lost 48lbs of fat. Just fat. And gone from 72 BMI to a 58. That at least makes me feel better progress.

Way to go! You're doing great!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
