joatsaint 2,814 Posted April 30, 2014 Looks like you're only a few months post-op. If you haven't drank anything bubbly since surgery, be careful how fast you drink. The bubbles may fill you up quicker than you think. I think I waited till the 6 month mark before I tried my 1st fizzy drink post-op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NMJG 1,266 Posted April 30, 2014 I still can't drink beer. Champagne I can sip, but beer is just too much carbonation, for me anyway. Fullo- have fun on your birthday, but be careful to not overstretch your new sleeve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fullofitx3 146 Posted April 30, 2014 I never was a big drinker but alway enjoyed a cold beer every now and then, and after 4 months, sticking to diet and exercise plan and shrinking down from a size 42 pants to a 36 I felt like I deserved a little treat. I It took me the whole game to finish 3/4s of it, but I was able to enjoy and savor each sip, now back to reality and back to diet and exercise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brenduski 7 Posted April 30, 2014 I read in a forum where a Dr. There was no proof that drinking carbonated drinks really did stretch the pouch, of course is not a good thing to drink beer because is high in calories with no nutritional value, but just like anyone else without a sleeve if you drink too much carbonation you will burp it out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
