Surgery tomorrow and a question...

[RNMomof4 86]

I just realized all these flavored waters I bought are carbonated Water. Do you think they will be ok to drink after surgery if I open them and let them go flat? Hate to waste them but I'm sure the kids will drink them if I can't.

Are they zero calorie? If so, flat should be ok

Give them away -- no carbonation after surgery.

I'm sure you can return them to the store and use credit to get non carbonated beverages. I would not take the chance to drink them flat...

@@RNMomof4 They're going to be gross flat - not worth it. Give them to the kids - and get yourself something else.

I wouldn't risk it...especially so early on.

Carbonated beverages bloat (and can eventually stretch) the sleeve. Not worth it.
