I am five momths post op and started drinking coffee 4 weeks ago because I was constipated and needed some relief. Since then I have had it maybe once or twice a week for this reason. I dont crave it like I used to and I notice that when I do have it now I feel very jittery. So I keep it at a minimum. My NUT said i can have it once in a while as long as it is without sugar or diet sugar. I would not recommend the coffee early on as the acid may irritate your new stomach. Wait until you are able to digest a variety of foods. Also a good tip is to try Decaf first and no more than 1oz and see how it sits. Thats what my NUT recommended. Hope this helps!

I recently started drinking coffee again (sugar free creamer and truvia) It is the only cure for my constipation(I have tried everything else) I drink plenty of Water during the day so I'm not worried about it. Being constipated every day just isn't something I can live with forever.

I am post-op day 2, & my surgeon allows me to make a mocha w/ my chocolate Protein Shake & Decaf instant cofee. (Before surgery I drank regular black coffee, ) The mocha tastes great, & I don't miss the caffeine.

      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.
