I've stuck to home brewed coffee for the most part, or Starbucks Double Shot espresso drinks in a can (the small like 5oz ones). They're lower-carb and lower-sugar. I've been tempted to try the sugar-free Redbull as I know I'm find with the carbonation (I've had a couple beers and did fine), but I know energy drinks can be harsher on the stomach, so I've been timid.

I was sleeved on Jan 20. I'm down 35 pounds and I live on sweet tea[emoji15][emoji15] that's my new vice




Does the sugar make you sick?
And I drink coffee, my nut said just replace it with the same amount in Water, so 8 oz coffee= 8 oz water

In tea the sugar is fine, but I can't drink any other drinks that are sugary or it does make me sick. I'm not a coffee drinker.. I've tried but can't hack it.[emoji12]




I used to LOVE sweet tea, my NUT made me give it up and said make my own with no cal sweetener. So far it's been a fail because I have the chemically taste. I'd rather drink real sugar, but since I can't I just haven't had any sweet tea sadly:/

What does everyone do for caffeine after surgery? Is Water the only thing you drink


I drink coffee my surgeon said don't stop drinking it I could have it as soon as I got home from hospital it was a saving grace to be honest it was my treat and that can't be a bad thing it's better than donuts choc bars and cakes lollies
I love coffee I have up to 3 a day myself and I'm almost 1 year out and at goal

      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!
