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.

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 :)

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.

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 :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
