I love the taste of soda, you can usually find me drinking some once a
day at least. As much as I love the stuff, it's always had the problem of making
me gassy. I would often try holding it in because I never felt good about letting
out gas in public.

I had decided to mix things up a bit today by buying grape soda, something
I don't see being sold all that often, apparently there's a promotion going on where
one special can will have a big prize for the lucky winner, it's nice to think about
but there's no way I could ever win something like that.

After chugging down the soda the typical bloating sensations began showing
up, nothing too out of the ordinary, but then something odd happened, it felt like
my skin was crawling, my attention was pulled towards my hands as I noticed that my
palm was turning purple as I stared at it, the purple color spreading to my fingers
and then before I knew it the rest of my body had turned purple too. Before I could
think too much about that strange occurrence, my pants began to feel tight and my
stomach began to inflate, a little hard to believe, but I was swelling up like a
balloon.

I began to panic as I looked down at my belly, I had always been skinny
before but now I looked obese. My gut was extremely bloated and firm, it looked like
I was sporting a beer gut. Groaning from the pressure as I tried to adapt to all the
added weight, I could hear my body slosh and creak as it tried to keep up with the
growth, I stood there looking like almost like a human grape as I wondered what to do...
