Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

Do any of you have a Kerig? How do you like it? I am looking to get one, but I don't want to put that much money into something that I may not like. I enjoy coffee, but I only ever drink one cup at a time. I have a small coffee pot, but I make 3 cups and end up dumping 2 cups.

How well do you like it? How do the calories run for the k-cups?

I very much enjoy mine. They have versions now that can do ice coffee. If I was to get one now I would def. spend the money for one that could do that. Mine was a gift, knock on wood works great, so no plans to replace.

FYI if you buy from Costco/BJ's they normally come with this part that let's you buy bulk coffee for use in the machine. As opposed to using their little coffee pods. The part is about $15 if you buy it seperately. Also if you are the green type this means you are not adding all that plastic to the dump.

When buying the coffee pods/cups check out Big Lots/Ocean State/discount stores I've found them there for a lot less then regular stores. Much cheaper at Target/Walmart than the grocery store

I love mines. To me, it's definitely worth it. I like being able to make one cup at a time. I also enjoy the different flavors and options that are available.

You can make coffee-iced or hot, iced or hot tea, hot cocoa, lots of different things. Hope you enjoy it if you do decided to purchase one.

My Wife bought me one for Christmas last year and I love it. I am the only one in the house that drinks coffee so now we are not wasting coffee by dumping left over pot. If you're not in a hurry you might find deals on "Black Friday". Between coupon's and sale she got it for $38 bucks. A really good place to shop for K-cups online is greatcoffee.com great prices and shipping is very quick. You can even do a subscription and have coffee sent on a timely basis.

Off Topic funny. A couple years ago I interviewed at the Keurig engineering office in MA. As I was waiting in the lobby this woman came in and quickly became very confused. Based on the sign on the building she thought it was a store. Not helping the situation was the display of every coffee machine they make, by the way there are a lot (personal to industrial/office size) and bins of EVERY coffee/tea/hot chocolate flavor they offer. The receptionist told her she was welcome to samples of the coffee pods but they were not for sale.

I did not get that job so my above review is based soley on my personal use.

I have one too and I love it... If you join Green Mountain coffee club online they send you a free mug and the coffee is usually cheaper.. you do have to pay for shipping but you get bigger boxes of k-cups for the same $ as in the stores...

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
