I was an avid coffee drinker prior to surgery..... Now I can't drink it. I drink hot tea instead. My surgeon said that coffee can irritate our pouches.

A hot cup of tea would taste really nice right now. Wonder if I could. I thought it had more caffeine in it then coffee and caffeine is a no no to my doc.

I guess I probably should have mentioned that my tea is Decaf. It's Bigelow brand that they sell at Walmart in the little boxes. I am extremely fond of the lemon/ginger and the mint. Mmmmmmm !!

People, caffeine is a major no no...don't drink it. It will affect your weight loss and dehydration levels.
