Diet soda…..Love affair

the day i started my pre op was the last time i had diet soda (2 1/2 years ago)..dont miss it

i also did the decaf during my 2 1/2 week pre op by order of my doctor…..after surgery, he said

i could start again and did the half and half type thing..still do sometimes…i had a big headache for about 4 or 5 days (detoxing) from the soda and used tylenol to aid….it does get better…i agree with the poster who said its mind over matter…i wanted to have WLS to help me lose weight and i did what i had to do to make it happen…i lived on diet soda…but it was something *along with all carbonation* that i had to do..

you can do it..it is hard but it is doable..
