3 months

Nothing, I always take my coffee black.

No problems whatsoever! My body runs on coffee (lots of it) and that has not changed.

ETA: my hospital brought me hot Decaf the day after surgery and I had that with no problems either. I didn't bother with decaf once I went home though, I didn't really see the point. But I went right back to full test coffee when I was okayed for it.

I drank Decaf for the first three weeks and then started drinking 1 cup of caffeine coffee each day. After one cup, if I want more.... I'll go to decaf.

Good deal. I'm only 2 weeks out. I have an irrational fear of putting anything to hot in my sleeve lol. I'll probably try a sip of my hubbies and go from there. Thank y'all!

Back away from my coffee!!!!

I had a cup (a few sips) the night I got home from the hospital with 1/2 & 1/2. I make room for a cup a day on all of my lists: calorie, Protein, etc.

Afternoon, I switch to Earl Grey tea, simply because I love that too.

Don't be mess'n with my caffeine!!! The bodies of those who did have never been found... :)

Is it ok to put fat free creamer in coffee? I love coffee but I have been putting vanilla Protein shakes in my coffee but I'm craving the creamer

Talk to your Nut. about it.

Together, her and I adjusted my diet to allow me to have 1/2 & 1/2 in my morning coffee.

It's all about switching things around --give and take with your daily menu.

I've been using the sugar free liquid Coffeemate French Vanilla since the day I came home from surgery and my NUT has no problem with it. I've also used the sugar free Italian Creme and Hazelnut.

I waited about a month... maybe two? I drink 2-3 cups a day (plus sometimes a cup of Decaf in the evening). I use Torani sugar-free syrups and 2% Fairlife milk. Or if I'm out, I put in Splenda and vanilla soymilk. Or Splenda and half and half, if I'm at a diner or something.

About 6 weeks maybe a little longer. It is all a blur now.

At first I was making iced coffee drinks with cold brewed coffee and unflavored Protein.

I have a cup every morning with a few drops of stevia and 1TB 1/2 and 1/2.

I think about 6 weeks. I really shouldn't even be drinking it with my GERD, but I try to limit it.

I have to have some vices, don't I??

What store do y'all find the Torani syrups from?

I find Torani syrups either at World Market, Ralph's, and Von's. Or if you don't live by any of those store Amazon also sells them.

I get it at Walmart. They have limited flavors at my store, just vanilla, Hazelnut, and Caramel that are sugarfree.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
