After YEARS AND YEARS of drinking diet soda, I recently found out
by a dietitian my daughter is seeing, that soda of any type can
stretch your stomach b/c of the carbonation. Geez, that makes so
much sense. So about 6 weeks ago, i've been REAL faithful to drink
just water, sometime flavored thruout the day. It has really made a
difference in my stomach area i must confess. It's not a 6 inch difference
but it's one I can tell. I treat myself once every few days to a soda instead
of 6-8 cans a day like I used to. I have NEVER been able to drink water
I just don't have patience to give anything a chance (SOMETHING I must
learn......patience!) but I must admit, it tastes pretty good now, surprisingly!
Also this dietitian said not to drink anything 1/2 hr before you eat until 1/2 hour after
you eat. This also will stretch your stomach, make you eat less of good things that
may keep you fuller longer!
