I am over 5 mths out and I drink 2 cups in the mornings......takes me about 3hrs because I work from home and I nurse it...heat it up a few times. I also drink a cup in the evenings if I'm in the mood. My doc said that as long as it doesn't upset my stomach its fine.

I'm not a coffee drinker but I am a tea drinker. I drink 32oz in the morning and at least another 24-32oz throughout the day. All Decaf.< /p>

2 cups for me sipped slowly at my desk while I'm working away. I had coffee the day after surgery once my leak check was finished :) I love it specially in the cold winter months. I also sip warm tea at times.

I talked to my doctor about this at my last appointment. I have one half to 3/4 of a cup of regular every day. He said it was ok if my stomach could handle it. I'd just ask your doc and go with whatever s/he says.

I'm only 6 days post-op and enjoying my first cup of Decaf as we speak! My doc is fine with regular, but I don't want to aggravate my raw stomach. But believe you me, I'll be right back to my beloved coffee as soon as I'm up to it. ;)

I'm five months post-op and drink (typically) 1/2 cup in the morning with 1/2 cup hot skim milk.

Most I EVER drink is a full cup (a second 1/2 cup with a second 1/2 cup of hot skim milk).

No problems thus far.

I noticed I need to add very little sugar an no cream or nothing extra, I'm surprised how I have tolerated, I believe even better than Cristal light. .. because coffee counts as ur liquid intake ;-)

I tried tea a week or so ago and gave me severe heart burn, lasted for 3 hours. Have been afraid to try since then.

I love coffee and tea and kind of surprised how I have can go on without coffee for 6 weeks.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
