I had coffee today with skim plus milk. Is caffinated coffee ok to drink? Most surgeons say no' date=' but I'm "cheating" and having a cup today because I need the caffeine and I miss it terribly. I will only have 1 a day.[/quote']

Coffee acts like a Diuretic and can Dehydrate you!!

I have been having a cup every morning for the last 2 weeks, strange, because it's normally maybe twice a week, anywho...I have just been using regular coffeemate with no issues and a sweet-n-low packet, yummmmmmm! but I have SF peppermint mocha coffeemate liquid and that is (angels singing) Heaven!!!!!

Thanks! It didn't sit well with me anyway. It gave me heartburn and caused stomach pain. Oh well!

My nutritionist said for every 8 oz of coffee you must add 16oz of Water to your daily intake.

When I realized this morning that I was out of my Decaf K-Cups I broke down and went for my old favorite CAFFEINATED FRENCH ROAST ;-) My surgeon allows for a cup a day of caffeinated but I haven't had any since preop... I've got to say, I have so much more energy I'm not sure if I'll be able to go back to the decaf... now I just need to up my Water intake to compensate for it... might be a little work but its so worth it to not feel like a zombie!

My biggest thing is trying to get over the guilt feelings for drinking regular coffee
