Default Does anyone drink diet sodas?

Just wondering. I am soooo thirsty for an ice cold Diet Dr. Pepper. BUT scared to drink one. Do any of you drink them occasionally?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I'm not a big soda drinker either but for some reason I am craving one. I guess I had better leave it alone. Mattie

TRY TO DO SOME RESEARCH ON WHY ITS BAD FOR YOU AND THEN MAYBE IT MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT CHANGE YOUR MIND.

PLUS IT WILL GIVE YOU SOMTHING TO DO INSTEAD OF TAKING THAT SIP AT THIS MOMENT. LOL LOL

Bad idea there Mattie...my surgeon and a lot of others have them on the "banned forever" list. I gave my diet coke up cold turkey about 5 months ago and have missed them once or twice. I found a Tropicana Fruit Punch in the can that is SF and it kind of tricks me into thinking I am drinking a soda...because of the can...I think! LOLOL

I was a big diet coke drinker right up to the day before. I was told in the pre-op class that the fizz in any soda will expand in your pouch and can cause damage so needless to say i am not drinking them. I do miss the taste tho - but use grape diet stuff along with frozen water - not quite as good but the alternative is not for me.

I was too a big fan of diet coke. Had my last one the night before surgery and havent looked back since. Kinda wierd. I drank a ton of diet Coke. I dont even miss it. Strange how that is. But I know like the others said, my surgeon said to stay away from it. However, I have seen someone post on here before how they do drink soda and etc...

the thing is, every dr will tell you something different. if you want one, let it get flat and drink it. if youthink you will have issues controlling your urges, then dont do it. of course you shouldnt drink it daily, but you should be able to have it here or there rovided you "respect the bubbles". LOL!
