No it is not. The Sun's gravitational pull you are mentioning is differential and makes you lighter when you are facing it AND when you are on the opposite side.
The Moon acts the same way and this effect causes 2 tides a day, not just one.

@ee7klt Dissolved CO2 does not increase the volume in such a way it can compensate for its weight (a CO2 molecule is 2 and a half times as heavy as a water molecule). Besides, Coke contains a lot of sugar, which makes it denser than water.

Le professeur MehlangChang a encore de beaux jours devant lui. Peut-être pourrait-il nous raconter ce qui se passe en ce moment devant le siège de S&P France ? Ça nous distrairait ;-)
