LowPSI 0 Posted January 21, 2011 As my doc and nutritionist told me, I'm an adult and I can make my own decisions, BUT...Caffein is a diuretic and staying hydrated is more difficult after banding, so try mixing Decaf with the real stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
honk 780 Posted January 21, 2011 My doctor okay's regular coffee. The Nutritionist said to consider Reg for Breakfast and Decaf the rest of the day. I drink it black with Splendra. It's cold here in NE and I like to have Hot Drinks. And I keep my house pretty cold and work from home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vlp1968 83 Posted January 21, 2011 My nutritionist also said caffine was ok- no soda (carbonation) but coffee was ok. It is a diuretic and also stimulates appetite so just be aware of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nursenancy 0 Posted January 21, 2011 Will I ever be able to drink my regular coffee again? I was told Decaf everything.. I am 1 year out and was not told that I could not have caffeine, just no carbonation. I drink regular coffee daily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CheckYes 46 Posted January 21, 2011 I have one cup of regular and sometimes one cup of Decaf each day. I have a Keurig one cup maker that uses K-cups and that is the best thing ever! No wasting a pot of coffee.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
