OMG you all made my day! I of course planned to ask my doctor at my first appointment this Wednesday but the presentation said something about it being bad for blood sugar levels.

Seriously- I can face my new eating lifestye happily if I can have my coffee! I drink it with a lot of milk.

OH HOORAY!

I was allowd coffee @ 5 days out, I use Truvia and non fat liquid Creamer or no sugar added french vanilla dry creamer. I'm 10 months out and have had no problem with it. Good luck on your surgery, you'll love the sleeve!!!

I have had such a hard time with the Decaf it tastes so different, I do buy and I trade off regular and decaf, because I heard about the ulcer thing too.. Either way there is nothing like a normal cup of coffee with some Fatfree FV or Hazelnut creamer....

I actually had the shakes in the hospital from caffeine withdrawal! I drank lots of iced tea every day before surgery. The doctor told me no caffeine for two weeks after surgery, but when I started shaking uncontrollably, they fixed me a cup of hot tea and it went away, so the doctor relented, and told me to just cut back to one or two cups a day. Odd thing is that since surgery I've made maybe, one pot of iced tea and that was it! It just doesn't do much for me anymore. I do have a cup of flavored coffee with a cup of milk and two sweet n low packets for Breakfast every morning with a few strips of bacon. I loves me some bacon! I'm still losing, too!
