Carbonated (Sparkling) Water, yes or no?

[biancan2ckyw 0]

I have trouble drinking standard Water, and so I have started drinking sparkling flavored water. My fiancé just showed me a YouTube video of a gentlemen about to take the bariatric journey and one of the things he said is no carbonated beverages whatsoever. Is this true? What are your thoughts on this? I had surgery five years ago and just recently started drinking the flavored sparkling water.

No. No carbonated beverages. I use Crystal Light instead in regular Water.

No!

My surgeon said that I could have flat drinks. So I make my sparkling Water flat before I drink it. Just burp the bottle until all the bubbles are gone.

I was told as long as it's flat I could drink it. But I haven't had anything like that since I was pre-op. It expands your stomach/pouch if it's not flat. Something I don't need right now.

I am allowed NO carbonation! It can expand your pouch. I don't like plain Water either so I use either Crystal Light or Mio flavoring. Or I have Decaf ice tea.
