to funny. i was never a big coffee drinker before surgery. so it wouldnt bother me if i couldnt drink it now. however, my hubby makes coffee daily, and i have had some and it doesnt bother me at all. i just think its funny that it isnt a big deal to me, and so of course i can have it.

I couldn't get by without my coffee--and I drink it iced with milk, so I consider it a Protein source!!! LOL This way, it can sit around for a few hours as I slowly sip it. I literally get one every morning and take it to work, and it lasts me throughout the morning hours. I usually have another on the way home from work (caffeine does not keep me up at night) at 5 or so.

Love it and am really happy that my sleeve also likes it okay.

I have a soy latte every morning. When I make it at home, it's 8 grams of Protein and 80 calories. The Tall Soy Latte at Starbucks has 130 calories and 7 grams Protein. I don't have the Starbucks version very often. I suck mine down usually within 1/2 hour then have Breakfast after I work out.

Sometimes in the afternoon or evening I have a second one with Starbucks Via Italian Decaf.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
