I'm still pre-op but I know that I'll miss coffee badly. Soda isn't a problem - I haven't drunk the stuff in months because of IBS.
I only have one cup of coffee a day - I'm hoping that down the road, I can still enjoy my morning cuppa.

I do drink coffee every monring. My surgeon said its fine. They said they prefer decaf but I just have a cup or sometimes 2 of the regular. Its doesnt bother me. But I knwo everyones puoch is different. Now before sugery I must have drank diet coke or diet pepsi all day long. Constantly. I drank my last one the day before sugery and havent touched one since. I find it hard to beleive but I dont miss it. I thought for sure I would miss it. But I dont. I drink water, Fuze, or occasionally Crystal Light. Its wierd how our tastes change but its been 5 months and I dont miss my diet coke.

I have had a really hard time with this myself. I have to confess though that I had a diet pepsi Sunday. I could not drink the entire 12 oz. but I had one. I took it very slow. I do not want to drink them again, but I was so hot and just SO TIRED of water, I could not stop myself. I am drinking unsweet tea from Mcd's now to get me going in the morning. Of course, I add splenda. I am 12 weeks out and I am still struggling with this demon. I want a diet pepsi BAD.

I wonder if there's some SF free Pepsi/Coke flavoured syrup out there - something to add to water for the taste.
That would work for me.
ETA. DaVinci apparently make a SF syrup that they claim tastes like Cola and Pepsi Cola Sugar Free Syrup
Question is, is it the fizz that gives us the buzz???

Yeah, I usually made a morning stop at Q-Trip for a cappuccino and I sure miss those! But what I miss more is diet pepsi. The other night I went out and had a rum and diet. I drank it very slow, and I'm sure alot of it was watered down. It didn't bother me. But I would LOVE to have a can of diet pepsi....fizz and all!!!!
