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!).

Ok...decaf gives me heartburn but regular I have no problems with. I get heartburn when I eat Bar B Que Pork Rinds! But I can eat jalapenos...no problems...go figure!

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.

      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?
