tea

[robin 2]

does anyone know why the drs./nutritionists don't want you to drink tea, once you have had the surgery?

My Surgeon & nutritionist encouraged it. They just want us to drink caffeine free.

I can have all the Decaf tea u want.

Decaf.

The caffeinated not only helps to dehydrate you, which is bad enough, it also blocks Calcium. Caffeine keeps it from absorbing. On a regular person the Calcium block isn't that much..but on us...I just don't want to try it. Ya know?

I still have my one cup of coffee in the morning but nothing else.my nutritionist said this was fine. Well...she said she could live with it!

I am really having an issue giving up coffee. I don't drink very much, but that cup in the morning is a must for me-I have heard some surgeons say that a cup is ok if you make sure to drink an extra 8 oz of Water that day. Otherwise I follow all the rules completely but this one is sooo hard

[deaddemmama 474]

Yeah I do a cup in the am.
