I drink about 2 cups of home-brewed coffee every day--one with Miralax and sometimes one with Protein Powder (my surgeon doesn't limit caffeine). Pre-op, I usually only had hot tea in the morning and coffee on the weekends, but the coffee (and the Miralax) are helping to keep my digestive system going while not eating much Fiber. I feel fine on it and it doesn't irritate my stomach in any way. I drink extra Water to make up for the coffee. I am three weeks post-op.

What everyones experience with coffee about a month out? What kind of coffee do you drink?

I drink chike Protein powder. Lol. I really do. It gives me my iced coffee fix. Also the click vanilla coffee (I think) but I don't like the mocha flavored one. It's weird, but my tummy doesn't like it.

I haven't ventured out to regular coffee, although I thought about it today. The first time I have even wanted it. (6 weeks post-op).

I only drink plain old coffee. I drink mine with lots of splenda and coffeemate. I haven't had any problems.

A month out, I tried Starbucks skinny latte and couldn't drink it. It gave me a pain in my chest. I had the iced sugar free vanilla coffee from Mc Donalds with no problems. Everyone's different. Good luck!

I have been a coffee addict since I was 16, grande mocha or caramel macchiato. My nutritionist had me switch to americanos and I would add milk and sugar. I was very worried that I wouldn't be able to drink it after surgery. I started drinking it on my 4th day after surgery, but I think I'm going to limit myself to only drinking it when I don't have to go into work, regular home brewed coffee. I'm finding that when I buy my americano, I don't drink much of it. I'm too busy trying to make sure I get enough Water in throughout the day. I've done fine without the coffee, too.

Welp, I just had about one third of a small vanilla latte from McDonald's and lets just say that I'm no longer constipated :)

It helps keep things moving. I've been drinking a med iced from DD cream and 1 shot of dark mocha no sugar since I was 2 months out no problems.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
