In the hospital right after surgery

I gave it up two months before surgery. I think we are allowed coffee at three months? I'm four months out but decided not to go back to my old habit. When I quit coffee I started sleeping through the night w/o any sleep aids. I hadn't been able to do that in 27 years. Who knew the solution was as simple as giving up coffee? :-)

Caffeine depletes nutrients that you are struggling to get into your body. It causes Water retention yet dehydrates you. Caffeine is not essential so why pollute your Buffy with it. I drank several cups of coffee a day before surgery. Since I've invested in getting my life back and beginning this journey with WLS I have given up anything and everything toxic, including caffeine.

I do not pee anymore than usual, my doctor recommended arizona tea as a post op liquid, so I've been drinking it since surgery...

I took my son to mcdonalds the other day. The only drink I remember them having that was caffeine free besides coffee, was the fountain lemonade. Of course when I went in, they no longer carried it and I had to settled for lemon Water with splenda.

My doc said NO CAFFEINE EVER! Luckily for me, I have been caffeine free for four years. :-)
