Day 2 Preop... Coffee!



Recommended Posts

I am on day 2 of the preop diet and the only thing that is killing me is no coffee! I am a religious coffee drinker, drink it every morning, and never

go without it. the liquid diet is going well so far, I've been getting just a few headaches here and there, but I am just craving coffee! Would it be horrible to have a cup of Decaf coffee?

They said I could have decaf, as ling as I used fat free Creamer and artificial sweetner not sugar

My surgeon says Decaf is okay, but absolutely no Creamers even if fat-free! It's interesting how different docs have different opinions. Also, if you're having headaches, could it be caffeine withdrawal?

My nutritionist says that coffee is fine

I was good with Decaf and even put it in my vanilla shakes to cut the taste a bit.

Thank you all for your advice. I understand that coffee could be an irritant to the stomache and band after surgery, but quitting cold turkey is just insanely hard for me. I will have a cup of Decaf before work, and will slowly wean myself this week with a whole week of no coffee before my surgery date.

I could have coffee and creamer on my preop. Anything liquid but use any creams moderately were my rules.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
