Coffee after being sleeved



Recommended Posts

Hello all!

I have been sleeved for 10 days now. I am back at work in my classroom, and I have a Keurig coffee maker. I sooooooo want to drink a bit of my french vanilla or hazelnut flavored coffee!!!! When can I start sipping on some coffee? ? I add no sugar or cream. I loveee coffee just miss it so much. Happy Friday to you all!! :)

It was given to me in the hospital on my tray, along with Water and a strawberry Protein shake. Dr said I could drink moderate coffee right away. I waited 2 weeks however, for fear the temperature would cause a staple line leak. Silly, I now know. I haven't gone a day without coffee for about 10 yrs but since I wasn't feeling well the first couple weeks, it was no biggy.

I put either flavored Creamer or sf Syrup and milk in my coffee. Every dr is different with caffeine, so you'll have to go by ur own drs recommendations.

Good luck!

I just started drinking isopure at first I thought it was gross but I got used to it. It helps getting all your Protein and Water in. Good luck :)

I was served Decaf coffee in the hospital the morning after surgery

My doc says no coffee... :-(. Mainly because it's a diuretic and dehydrates you.

From what I read you can drink Decaf because it will not cause the dehydration.

I started with a Decaf about 3 weeks out. It didn't sound good till then. Worked up to half caf then regular. I am 6 months out and drink 2-3 cups per day.

coffee won't really dehydrate you unless you are quite short on liquids.

Wow, my doc said 3 months, (but i had an iced americano yesterday 2 months out and I want another one today!). I did take extra antacid though. I don't think it's a caffiene question, but rather an acid question.

My docs etc told us no caffeine after surgery whatsoever. With that said, I'm drinking 1-2 cups a day. No worries on my end, all seems to be going well. I am about 8 months out and started drinking coffee again back 2 months ago.

Decaf should be fine' date=' but my doctor said no caffeine for 3 months, after 3 months, only one caffeinated beverage per day.[/quote']

I have a terrible habit of Cuban coffee or triple shots of espresso...so one drink a day would be terrible...lol

      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.
