Nightmare

I use a straw all the time. I get more ounces of my water in that way. It cant hurt you, and the whole no soda thing is bubkis too. I had my first diet coke this past weekend. I put it over ice, and let it melt a little. No problem! I find when you deprive yourself of the thing you want most thats when bad habits of over doing it can happen. JMO!

I use straws as well. But, I remember when I was newly post op (within the first 8 months) that I had one dream that I ate a whole roast beef and tore my pouch and ripped all the surgery out and was bleeding internally....Very strange dream and very realistic!  No I had not eaten any whole roast beef... ;)  Just the strange dreams we have.  Good luck.

 

Warmly,
