Completely Flat Diet Ginger Ale....safe or unsafe.  Just curious, I'm drinking water but looking to change it up a little (the flavored waters are starting to get blah)  Any idea's?

Flat ginger ale won't kill you.  The claim is that carbonation leaches calcium from your bones, but I don't know for sure.  I buy Ocean Spray Diet Juices, thye only have five calories.

Have you tried some of the Vitamin Zero drinks.  The Squeezed taste like watered down lemonade and SoBe Life water 0 are great too.  I would stay away from the flat gingerale.

31 lbs. lost before surgery!  My goal is 150lbs.  My surgeon's goal is 110lbs.  I just can't imagine that weight right now.  Maybe someday . . .

My nutritionist told me that any FLAT, DIET soda is fine. As long as its completely flat and diet. So if you like it then drink up!!

You can try   oj and  water  or  lemon and water or any juice watered down.     I  drink  tropicana lemonade light.  it is not carbonated and i love lemonade.  it has  5 calories a serving.

I  just love water too.   but   i  know at first  finding things to drink can be challenging.

the damaging thing in soda is phosphorous acid.    and the carbonation kills when you are first out from surgery.   Also  check other drinks for phosphorous acid.   Just dont drink alot of anything that has that in it.  It  eats your skeletal system.  which is why they  say it leaches the calcium from your bones.

You are doing great!!!
