Sorry for such a stupid question, but is it true that you cant drink alot of beer or carbonated drinks after having weight loss surgery?

*This really is a serious question and I am not trying to be funny.

it is true, Travis.... all carbonated beverages are not reccomended for RNY patients, since the carbonation fills you up and can upset your pouch... Since i do not drink much soda, that part did not affect me much, However, i do miss being able to put away 20 beers without a hiccup, lol..

But having said that, that part of my life is behind me.. It is that part of my life that has put my life into disarray in the first place. I am happy with my small portions and such nowadays..

Fact of the matter is, i can still enjoy a beer sparingly.. Its "recommended" to not drink carbonation.. I had 1 the other day,and it took me about 90 minutes to finish, but i still enjoyed it. probably more than any other beer ive ever had.. lol..
