Beach Lover 1,084 Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) I drink 1/2 caffein 1 cup a day with sf caramel machaitto and some of my Premier Protein drink. I'm also 4 1/2 months post op so if you are recently post op you might wait a little. Yummy!

able2cope 193 Posted November 3, 2013 I'm a year post of - and drink coffee every day - perhaps max three small cups spread throughout, but I do make sure that I drink a bottle of Water in between each cup, at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sanks51 214 Posted November 3, 2013 I drink a strong coffee, just about every other day. I was never required to stop drinking it. I'm actually a tea drinker but after surgery I found that tea had such a weak flavour no matter how strong I made it... Coffee did the trick!! 1 carstanger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SerendipityHappens 1,594 Posted November 3, 2013 I've been drinking coffee since three days out. I start every morning with a 16 ounce coffee with a scoop of vanilla Protein Powder in it. 1 carstanger reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carstanger 346 Posted November 3, 2013 I could have Decaf right from the start. My nutritionist said that we could have regular, after we got in 64 ounces of water...because it was a diuretic. Other surgeons say something different I know. I know that my heart doesn't race as much as I have difficulty with that and my "boobs" aren't as lumpy so I only occasionally have caffeine.
