I waited a month. Now I eagerly drink my tall Americano every morning with cream. I'm

Not able to drink the whole thing but those first few sips are lovely.

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

Lol I don't see what the big problem is as long as you're staying hydrated.

Ya know,

You would think with all of us having the same surgery, the surgeons could get together and decide what's what!

Sheesh! :wacko:

My surgeon has as strict no caffeine rule. My choice through all this is to work my sleeve the way my doctor and his team has directed. So I have already given up caffeine so I am not going through withdraws afterwards. Maybe once I know I can keep up my hydration well I will consider it...lol

i'm allowed to drink coffee with just milk, and i'm only three days post op. i believe it has to be Decaf, though. it's weird to see how everyone's surgeons have different opinions.

My doctor told me a minimum of 3 months. I may be saying this wrong but from what I got of it he said the coffee pulls the blood away from your stimach and you need kore blood there while healing. I couldnt handle it anyways until a little after 4, and I am 5 months out now and its still rough

I did not give up caffeine because I work overnight and can't live without it. I did change to Avitae Water from diet coke. I miss my diet coke but this is just water with some caffeine in it! I drink like 2 a day and regular water the rest of the time. I don't like coffee so no problem but I feel for you guys that do!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
