Judge? It's the one "rule" I break every morning :D

It's funny I always drank black coffee before now I like to put stevia and a drop of milk or two sometimes...

The night before Surgery, my 2 "sleeve sisters" and I sat in the Hotel Lobby drinking Lattes made with Decaf. and Cookies and cream muscle milk. It was yummy. I haven't had coffee since the day before surgery... I sure miss it !!! My Doc recommends waiting 2-3 weeks post op before starting caffeine, and then only if you're consuming 64 - 80 oz of fluids. I was told coffee does not count towards your liquids because of it's diuretic effect.

I waited about 2 months before I started drinking regular coffee.. I had hot milk with instant decaf with Splenda in my early days out of surgery. That was yummmaaay and 10 grams of Protein..

OK you wild women (and coffee is my own rule-breaker as well)

What about the need for early day Protein? So I do a Protein shake before I leave for work (a 74 mile drive) at godforsaken AM, and stop for my now black coffee 1/2 Decaf at our "Wawa".

Then with Mr. radio, I am ready...

I'm a SAHM- so my schedule is off from most. I drink my coffee at the butt crack of dawn when DH is way too loud getting ready (he feels you on the 74 mile commute). Then I eat a real Breakfast an hour or so later- some days it's a protein shake- bleck or others its a 1 egg omelette with ham or turkey sausage and cheese.

      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.
