At 2 1/2 years out, I drink soda but at two weeks out??? :faint:

I couldn't even get in half my Protein and Fluid requirements much less have room for soda and ritz crackers that early out. Hell! It took my almost 6 months to get to the point where I was CLOSE to my nutritional requirements.

It's amazing how different each surgeon's plan is for recovery, healing and maximum weight loss. My doctor would have ponked me in my head if I even suggested such things on such a fresh incision.

No pop is allowed fir god knows how long.

Never was a big fan of soda but I used to love sparkling Water. I have not had any since pre surgery diet and I don't miss it either.

I was told no carbonation ever.

Both my doctor and nutritionist are in the no camp. They say it expands your stomach sleeve making it easier for you to eat more and therefore rregain weight. I gave up TAB over a year ago, had a break and drank a 12 pack in March and then for my birthday in June. That was all pre-op so my plan is to stay off diet soda.

It doesn't.

I started with Diet Coke at about two months out, and I've never had a problem. However, I really can't finish a whole can before it loses the fizz. And those giant movie theater drinks (44-64 fl oz)...forget about it.

How do you have crackers at 2 wks (I wish) I can barely finish half a 16oz bottle of Water. I'm going nuts!
