I sure ticked off my sleeve this morning. coffee. Decaf. Oh my. I won't be doing that again any time soon. I went right back to Water and my sleeve was happy again.

Slow and easy.

I was wondering what decaf coffee would do on the belly. Glad I read this :)

Everyone is different, but my tummy was very sensitive at first. I drank hot Water and Sleepy Time Tea at first. After a few weeks, I could enjoy Decaf again and I was glad to get back to coffee after 3 months. You might try decaf with milk or soymilk. I still drink it that way today. Pre-op, I drank a double-espresso daily. Post-op, I drink two soy milk lattes a day. When I started drinking decaf post-op, I drank Starbucks Via instant coffee made with soy milk instead of Water.

After more than a year out, I am mostly back to my eat and drink anything self (just in smaller quantities and focusing on healthy choices most of the time!).

I have been off caffeine for years. When I worked midnights, I couldn't sleep. If I have caffeine now, it messes me up! I will give Decaf a chance down the road again once my sleeve calms down and settles in.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
