Mmmm Starbucks. When I go, I get what I want. Full fat version of whatever strikes my fancy! I only visit it about twice a year, so I don't worry about it too much.

Oh, I love Starbucks. I go about once a week. I get the bacon, egg, and gouda. I throw the bread away and only eat about 3/4 of the inside. Yes, I get many strange looks. However, they are worth it. I will say I am over a year out from surgery.

I am six weeks out and go three or four times a week. I always get a Decaf, nonfat latte. 11g of Protein really helps my Protein goals for the day. I'm switching to half-caff soon!

I was allowed coffee throughout the entire process. Thank goodness. I think my metabolism would've died if I ever stopped it hehe. Not a Starbucks fan though. One of the biggest changes in my diet that helped me was kicking mocha coffee with lots of calories. I think I overdosed on it back in the day hehe. I like my coffee with a little cream and can't drink coffee that is remotely sweet anymore.

Since surgery, love my Keurig coffee with vanilla Premier Protein as flavor. The others are very sweet now! I'll have them as an afternoon treat if out tho. 4 years out and maintaining. This is part of my routine! Summertime is the chocolate Protein Shake with Starbucks instant coffee over ice. Yum! Decaf after surgery until I was hydrating normally.

I don't love Starbucks but sometimes on the road it's the only option for caffeine. I really don't like the way their regular coffee tastes burnt. I usually drink coffee black or w milk but can't stomach the Starbucks.

Are there any flavored options there that are bari friendly there? Like a no carb mocha?

      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.
