Soda

I had a grape propel for the first time today and it wasn't too bad. I usually dont like flavor water becasue they are too sweet. The black cherry sounds delicious.. I'll have to give it a try. Thanks Kay

My surgeon also forbids sodas for life. He says that eventually, if you just have to have one, a couple of swallows will have to be all. But, he says that we should keep in mind that soda can stretch that little pouch you have. Ultimately, negating the effect of WLS. Enough to scare me. But dreaming doesn't hurt. Oh, while we're talking about no nos, guess what I had! I had a bite of my husband's raspberry cheesecake with cookie crust. I chewed it up, enjoyed and savored every second of taste and then spit it out into a napkin, rinsed my mouth. Great way to get that taste without ruining my pouch and new eating habits. It was good too!!! Kim

Hey Kim The other night my best friend was eating peanut butter pie and I was drooling. I LOVE anything peanut butter. I got a tiny *****ewed it then spit it out. Its funny because its good to know that I'm not the only one chewing and spitting! Kay

I was wanting some caffeine free diet coke and I saw my nutritionist the other day. She said to go ahead (I don't have a pouch...I have a sleeve). I pour it so it fizzes a lot and then let it sit a minute. Aaaah!!!!! Delicious!! That is one thing too I have a weakness for. I don't need it everyday, but one every few days is tasty! It is making me feel more "normal". Thank goodness!!! ~Christina

Hi Kay and Everyone! I was told you can have it if you let it go flat and then pour it into a glass because more carbonation goes out that way. I tried a diet coke that way. Wasnt nearly as good as I remember it to be but like somone else said it was a nice change. Sometimes I feel like I am going to drown drinking all this water but yet I still drink what I can. Have a great day! -Sue

Oh My Gosh....I want a can (has to be a can) of regular Coca Cola!!!! I dream about it sometimes. Oh well, maybe one day i'll be able to have a sip.

I am not a soda person but am really wanting a bottle of pelligrino sparking water. I miss my carbonated water in a bad way.
