I know you aren’t supposed to drink soda after gastric bypass, but I do anyway. Do you think it will significantly strectch out the new stomach pouch? I also can eat more than I feel like I should be able to. For instance, I can eat an entire bagel. I’m very full after I eat it, but should I be able to fit it in my stomach? Does anyone else feel like they can eat more than they should? I also have a bad habit of drinking with my food. I am almost 2 years post-op.

After 2 years your stomach has probably stretched out just a little, I beleive that is normal, to a point. This is also a reason why some people ha ve a hard time keeping the weight off post-op, everything heals up and the stomach streches a little and then you don’t feel as full as you use to, or like you said noticed you can eat a little more. But if you are too worryed you need to go to the doctor that did your surgery and get checked out just to make sure everything is ok.

For second helping and eats normal dinners though she is still looking good so would say drink your soda in moderation eating whole bagle should be fine.

The stomach gets bigger remember thats how we got big in the baby sodasthe oz theres certain level of discomfort my own advice and bigger and stop drinking.
My own advice and now should lay off again your stomach is like balloon and bigger remember thats it does blow the sodas hope this helps.

I have some friends who drink soda post-op and others that still get sick from it. You aren’t supposed to drink soda ever and nothing ever with meals because you digest too quickly and eat more that way.
