what drinks (alcohol) have you tried?

hey, steph, so are you saying that only canned beer is carbornated?  and micro brew's are not carb..? hmmm, interesting?? but alot higher in calories...how is ultra for carbornation?

Hi Cheryl, I asked my DH and he said that it's the same by brand not necessarily the container.  I have no idea!!  I just know that I can do Sam Adams the best.  I have tried several of their "flavors" and like the Summer Ale, Pale Ale & Octoberfest the best!!!  I've only tried Bud as far as other domestic beers and like I said it was VERY painful.  But, I'm guessing like everything else it's all individualized.

Tempting isn't it Cheryl!  hahaha.....after the week I've had, I might go try one myself!!  wwwayyy  just kidding!   I'd be drunk as a skunk with one sip as I hardly ever drank before WLS! haha 

haha, yes and no Ruth, I don't like micro brews, ewwww.... or sweet drinks, I"m pretty limited now cause the one drink I like is Mic Ultra and it is carb.  dang??  although, StePh i'm a bad girl too, I had my DH open a diet, caffine free pepsi today and it sat in cooler for 2 hours and I drank it cold, yum, with no problem.... I dont' plan on doing this, just cause I can, It was a treat since I avoided beer all weekend out on the lake...I"m sure once I get restriction it prob won't happen ever again...

hi mama g it's smallal  slc     how u doing    i missed seeing u at work last week i was on vacation  i'm down to 130 lbs  size 8  or 10 .  all is well   

I am soooo sorry, but who is smallal??? sounds like your doing awesome tho.   hehe, let me know who you are, then I can get excited. hehe....

the only thing i've had is twisted tea. buzzed after one. no carbination either. i had a sip of my son's soda the other day and man did that hurt oscar!

See, I've had some soda without any problem. (not a lot mind you and always caff. free) and I have a friend who is 2 years post-op who drinks atleast 1 can of regular diet pepsi a day without problem. I think it just all depends! As far as drinking, I haven't tried anything yet. My cheeks got pink from the tequilla lime salad dressing at Margaritta's so I think that might be a hint at how fast I'd get a buzz! LOL I'd think that stoli raz and sprite zero would be fine for me ... but I don't think most bars and restaurants carry diet  sprite do they??

So I finally tried a drink as a test for my 1 drink in Vegas.  I tried a sip with the malibu and club soda...not goog.  I tried a sip with the sierra mist free and it tasted good.  But...too fizzy.  so I let it sit over ice for awhile.  I nursed it, like I imagine I would in Vegas.  My face ot a little warm, but that was about it.  I didn't quite feel a buzz, but probably since I drank it over an hour.  So I am safe to have one in Vegas.  I'm not worried about my one drink making m sloppy and acting like a fool. I did get tired after though.  So not sure if it was from that or lack of sleep since I am always on baby duty and Kenzie is still waking up several times a night and likes to get up for the day at 5:30.
