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!

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.

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!!

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.

I drink Decaf coffee everyday, maximum 3 mugs full. I love it black and couldn't do without it.

But talk to your doctor first.

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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
