I use 6 oz of Bananas & Cream Premier Protein and 2 Tablespoons of Flavorless Vital Protein collagen Peptides which in total adds 24 grams of protein to my coffee.

Strange the different advices we are all given... the day after my op I was given coffee by the hospital. Admittedly I found it disgusting, not sure if it was my taste buds as well as I had cut down on coffee prior to the op based on my own decision but I am back on it full time now

I always drank my coffee black with sweetener so stick with that minus the sweetener and just add in a scoop of vital Proteins collagen and it means I get some of my Protein requirement in also.

I also do a couple of cold shots of coffee with Alpro dark chocolate almond milk, a scoop of vital proteins collagen and scoop of Protein Powder over ice for a lunch sometimes. Works out at 21g protein.

Lots of people just mix Protein Shakes with their coffee. Lots of flavor options and it helps jump start your Protein too. I’m off to Amazon to search for your cold brew jar now. 😂

I just tried caramel Protein Shake in iced coffee and it is so delicious!!. When I switched to milk instead of creamer I had to add so much Splenda to offset the bitterness that it didn’t really taste like coffee anymore. This way is so much better.

So what is a bariatric plan friendly way to drink decaff coffee? So before getting myself weaned off caffeine I enjoyed cold brew coffee with vanilla Creamer. My surgeon does not allow caffeine after surgery (or at least for awhile). So I have already got myself drinking Decaf cold brew with a splash of sugar free creamer. What does everyone drink in their coffee that is bariatric plan friendly? Also yes I know everyones plan is different but Id like to hear ideas.

I put heavy cream in - old Keto diet habit and I don't eat enough fats as it is, then I add my Protein powder and my digestive resistant maltodextrin. That's it! If I want more flavor, I use my "chocolate flavored" nespresso blend coffee..not any chocolate added its just the flavor of these particular Beans and I froth my heavy cream.

Also, make sure your coffee is truly Decaf, most have some. Look for those that are Water processed they contain the least amount of caffeine grams!
