Diana_in_Philly 1,426 Posted April 16, 2019 Every team is different. I was given a cup of coffee (not Decaf - regular) in my post op liquid meal tray day after surgery. Been drinking my blessed coffee ever since. PS Love Torani syrups - they are great to spice up shakes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justmetj 421 Posted April 16, 2019 This is from the ASMBS website- Q: Do I need to avoid caffeine after bariatric surgery? A: Caffeine fluids have been shown to be as good as any others for keeping you hydrated. Still, it is a good idea to avoid caffeine for at least the first thirty days after surgery while your stomach is extra sensitive. After that point, you can ask your surgeon or dietitian about resuming caffeine. Remember that caffeine often comes paired with sugary, high-calorie drinks, so be sure you’re making wise beverage choices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
