The issue I have with coffee, as I sip it while I write this, is that we have to keep our Water up. My doctor said the main reason they say no to coffee at first is bc of the whole water issue. I'm being so bad bc I need the caffeine, am in a total stall and I know it's bc my fluids are not even close to where they shld be. Not drinking out of a straw is killing me bc that's how I always got my water in-downing tons of water with one of those reusable cups with a straw. [emoji20]

I use a straw. It really helps me. I told my MD and he said as long as it doesn’t increase gas in stomach and cause pain it’s fine.

How much coffe vs Protein drink u use

Sent from my SM-J700T using BariatricPal mobile app



I get 4 shots espresso in large cup filled with ice. Pour 11oz protein drink over it. I use ready made Premier Protein. I like caramel.

My go-to drink is their iced green tea, unsweetened -- or, sometimes, the strawberry green tea infusion, also unsweetened. Whatever little natural sugar there is from the strawberry infusion doesn't bother me; I eat fruit all the time.

All good ideas, but for the soft food stage don't forget egg bites. They were wonderful when I was hungry on the go, still like them.

Starbucks are everywhere and they saved me a few times. There are not a lot of convenient options for soft foods on the go.

Oh man- so sad to see the sugar in the lemonade! My favorite pre-op was a black tea lemonade sweetened with stevia.

I do their egg bites and their cheese/fruit box. I am not allowed fruit now but my husband or a coworker eats it.

I cant do their drinks any longer. All of the conditions I have tried are incredibly weird tasting to me. My friend works for Starbucks so he has literally made me every drink possible lol

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
