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

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
