You could try half regular, half Decaf and gradually cut it out? Do you have to fully cut it out? I have one to two cups a day of the high test (lol) and I don't plan to stop. I try to drink more Water to accommodate that.

I am addicted to coffee as well and I don't think I can give it up! I gave up my diet cokes and I can't imagine life without any caffeine. Do you know why the doctors prefer we don't drink coffee after being banded?

If you drink too much it can dehydrate you, and being dehydrated = tighter band. Also, you need to drink Water and coffee doesn't count towards that.

I gave up my diet cokes (sad sigh). I drink a lot of iced tea sweetened with splenda. I could never ever give that up!

I gave up coffee a week before surgery so i would detox before hand...it was a hard three days nd so far its been two n a half weeks without it. I can say i actually feel great waking up now n when i can drink it again next week i will be using decaf..one less stimulant in my body...n fyi caffine is a natutal appetite stimulant

I drink lots of coffee now two large sugar free vanilla ice coffees a day from McDonald's 120 cals each per fitness pal It's worth it to me but I make sure I drink at least two large smart waters a day too. I was a twelve pack a day soda drinker before yes 12. I quit slowly and had no caffeine for two months then decided to try it again and I started losing wt again? I did get a small full around this time too but the sweet coffee helps no eat other high cal sweets and I drink it slow do it last a long time less Snacks. It works for me???

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
