Whenever coffee is OK to add back in per your plan. Other than that, up to you.

I hope it's soon......I guess once we are clear for coffee? although i read here that some people had Decaf coffee while still in the hospital? maybe I'll dry a decaf skinny van latte?

The caffeine is kind of a health thing, like the rules to eat low carbs, but not so much a sleeve thing. The acids/tannins in things like tea and coffee can be irritants to the staple line and to extra sensitive stomachs, and can sometimes irritate the reflux/heartburn issues that tend to come with the procedure.

IM just wondering when after surgery or if ever can I have a skinny vanilla latte from Starbucks??

Absolutely love the skinny vanilla latte. It's the only thing I buy from Starbuck's. I then go to Panera bread for cinnamon crunch bagel with plain cream cheese. Of course, this was all pre-sleeve, but it sure tastes good.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
