KalelsWifey 318 Posted April 30, 2015 I am going to do my coffee bc I am dying for some. I've been so good with everything but Decaf is in no way doing it for me. All in moderation. One cup a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OregonTeacher 63 Posted April 30, 2015 I would think that if your stomach handled the Decaf okay then you should be fine. Just drink an extta6 glass of Water.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KalelsWifey 318 Posted April 30, 2015 Makes sense!! Cup of coffee coming my way! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KalelsWifey 318 Posted April 30, 2015 I'm starved. Like super hungry and this has not even remotely been me this past week. I've gotten in all my Protein, drank a TON of fluids, it had broth, SF Jello and pudding today. Is this my body telling me it's ready for stage 4?? I wouldn't do until I. Speak with my center but that won't be till tmrw now, I just kept drinking. Not all at once. I'll do a cpl Oz make sure the pouch is OK and then I wait ten min or so and drink more... Wth can I do??!

OregonTeacher 63 Posted April 30, 2015 I am somewhat envious. I am only allowed full liquids, like my pre-op diet, and the shakes are making me sick. I have to take nausea meds to get them down so I can make my 60g. If I can't show I can get it in then they will not release me to the next stage on Monday. Remember that warm things make our stomachs feel more full than cold things. Drink some more Coffee! Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KalelsWifey 318 Posted April 30, 2015 Great minds bc this coffee is FREAKING delish! They consider Jello a liquid, if not I would be screwed bc it kinda tricks my mind that I'm getting more in bc I have more consistency with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KalelsWifey 318 Posted April 30, 2015 (edited) @@OregonTeacher, are you near a GNC? This is the ONLY way I've reached my Protein goal... There is a Liquid Protein called Isopure. I got 'Alpine Punch' which is like fruit Punch. It is 11.3oz but packs 40g of protein in it. I pour it in a glass, MIX Fruit Punch Crystal Lite with it and then add ice. I let it all dilute a bit and let me tell you it is just DELICIOUS! If you don't do the other two steps, the initial taste is ok but the after taste is blah like an aspertain taste... I strongly urge you try this so you can be lifted to your next stage as this was my last option otherwise they would've kept me another two weeks this upcoming Thursday if I didn't find a solution as well.

OregonTeacher 63 Posted April 30, 2015 Good advice! I will get my husband to look and see if our GNC sells it. I am definitely getting desperate! right now I am sitting here drinking beef consomme because it has 5 grams of Protein in it and its something different.

KalelsWifey 318 Posted April 30, 2015 We need to do whatever works! Even Google the brand and see if a local store near you carries it. I promise you won't regret it and will be taking in 60g in no time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dawnyoung872 42 Posted May 1, 2015 Walden Farms makes coffee creamer in several flavors. All are dairy-free, calorie and fat free. The flavors I know of are a regular one, mocha, sweet cream, and hazelnut. I was dying for coffee too. Now I can have it without cheating! ☕???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KalelsWifey 318 Posted May 1, 2015 Thank you. Sounds yummy. I'll take a look at our market and see if they carry it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MariaElena1983 17 Posted May 1, 2015 I am about 10 weeks post-op. I started drinking regular coffee a few weeks ago. I usually make one 16oz. cup in the morning. I use fat free coffee mate Creamer. I sip on it all morning and most of the time I don't finish the whole cup. I switch to Water after that. I haven't had any problems yet but I only allow myself that one cup a day.

Stevehud 1,790 Posted May 7, 2015 thats sugar free italian sweet creme is my godsend. that stuff has made coffee so good. although my nut limits me (sleve0 to one medium iced coffee per day, which since i dont even finish half of it. is fine by me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InspirationMySon 135 Posted May 8, 2015 Get a milk frothier. I got one at target and you can mix it with your Protein Powder and 8 ounces of milk and it makes you a nice latte esq drink. Plus the frothier mixed the Protein so it doesn't curdle when you intro it to the hot coffee.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
