Flavored Seltzer

I'm about four months out is flavored seltzer a no no? I'm afraid to try it!

Hi Jennifer If you had Gastric Bypas, anything carbonated is a no-no Some people have it and it doesn't bother them But seltzer gives you a lot of gas, can give pain in the pouch and can also also stretch the distal end of the pouch. I personally don't recommend it, but thats just my opinion. I do know plenty of people that have tried it and it has left them a lot of pain in the chest. But that's up to you. Marie

I have to agree with Marie, i have not touch carbonated beverages as i have heard it hurts like heck.....I stick to diet snapples and crystal lite.... LisaMarie

Ditto! Nothing carbonated, it streches the pouch. Sorry!

i myself have not had soda in close to 3 yrs however if the craving gets really really hard to deal with let it go flat a little.... i am a propel drinker diet snapple and water water water water ........ did your surgeon say you could drink soda ?? just curious that was the first no no i was told that and ibuprophen Stacy

I figured it was a no no. I guess I'm getting the craving for carbonated beverages. I was a major COKE fiend before surgery. I need some sugar in my blood. I can't take diet drinks. I drink Fierce GRAP by Gatorade and dilute it w/ water 50%. I work out alot and need those electrolites. It satisfies my craving. Oh well.
