Soda/Pop

It is no secret that you should not drink soda after having his surgery. In fact, it is one of the rules of the surgery. NO SODA/POP. Have I had any soda since surgery...... Yes. I won't lie.

What kind of soda do I drink? I have diet white soda. Such as Sprite, sierra mist, lemon/lime. Why am I drinking soda? I don't drink it everyday. I let the fizz out of it when before I drink it. The white soda settles my stomach so fast. I never am able to drink the entire can. I follow up with water immediately.

Recently a family member, who works for a local medical hospital, was speaking with the doctor she works for. The doctor informed her that one of the gastric patients died recently because she didn't take care of herself. One of the things that she was doing is drinking soda/pop. I agree, soda/pop is a bad thing to drink with this surgery. There are many other factors that go into "not taking care of yourself", including drinking Soda/Pop.

This is me on my soda/pop box today. Follow the rules.
