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.

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 love my morning coffee or hot tea! I think I didnt drink coffee for a week or 2 post op, but was never told I needed to avoid it.

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.

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.
