hi. i had coffee post op. my doc said to drink slow. it is very acidic so he said dont drink too much. so i just had a cup each morning. but if you are worried call and check with your doctor. seems like different docs say different things. good luck and go slow. follow the rules. dont push it. you will be fine. you will lose the weight.

Hi khrissy,

Noone said anything to me about coffee so i drink it with abandon. Nothing adverse has happened to me bec. of it.

Hmmmm okay....so *thinking to self* it wasn't the coffee that destroyed Neenagh's brain cells and made her a little freakish (kinda like Argon).....good to know!

I'm pretty sure I had my first cup on the way home from the surgical center. I considered it a vital part of my liquids diet. :D

However, I did notice that for the first couple of weeks that it felt better in my stomach if I didn't drink it at normal strength, and one cup was plenty. Now, I'm back up to normal - two Americanos (espresso and hot Water mixed) in the morning and one in the late afternoon.

LIsten to your body and you will know what to do.

      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.
