Guest guest Posted November 30, 2001 Report Share Posted November 30, 2001 , I know this is a dumb question other than the obvious Caffeine free soda would be better than regular soda....Granted NO SODA IS best...I guess I am trying to justify my can of sprite or caffeine free coke a day....Not that I am promoting or suggesting any soda consumption post-op...It seems that once I drink the can(sometimes its only half the can)...the craving is completely satisfied I used to drink a 2 liter of coke by myself pre-op ...I really was hoping that my soda addiction would be " cured " I have tried the waters, they make me naseous cold, room-temperature, tap, bottled, you name I have tried it.....Juice I look for the low sugar ones....like the vitamin waters...And I also enjoy seltzer water....which I can drink just fine...but after a while I get tired.....I know I am bad....damn the soda companies for there evil product Lisbeth --------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisbeth: Have you tried the Diet Pepsi Twist (with Lemon)? I love it -- I think it's better than the Diet Coke with Lemon, although I prefer the Diet Coke (plain) caffine free over the Diet Pepsi.... Maybe the lemon-flavored drinks will be more appealing? I don't know if they make a caffine-free version of those (yet?)... I think they just came out! I also love the Diet Ginger Ale (and flavored Ginger Ales)... I like seltzer, too but there's something about that tonic water...

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2001 Report Share Posted November 30, 2001 Actually regular caffinated soda's scare me.....I am very caffeine sensitive....I can have coffee in the morning and have quite the interesting insomnia night....So I try to drink decaffinated everything....so that means, ginger ale, sprite, 7-up, (today I had half a can of sprite and half a glass of caffeine free coke which is more than I have had post-op in one day) decaffinatedsoda's and teas.....Chamomile is my favorite ok peppermint is my favorite I like them both!.....Seltzer water is cool....especially the raspberry, and lemon-lime which gives the soda sensation....I find that soda doesnt taste the same after surgery.....I still like it....but before surgery soda was something I had to have.....When I have soda now I fill the glass with ice and pour the soda in and I let it sit until the ice has just about melted this way I get my water in Lisbeth (who is in denial that soda is bad) ruisha@... wrote: > > , > You know I never really liked diet soda...maybe I should try the diet caffeine free coke (although if the soda I am going to drink is caffeine and diet I should just drink water at that point LOL)....I think I am going to try to up my seltzer water intake....It has zero sugar in it....I feel guilty drinking the soda....and I really miss drinking water.....I cant wait until I develop my taste for water again....
