chicamam1 1 Posted March 7, 2009 Hi everyone! I've been reading these forums in anticipation of my own surgery which is scheduled for March 16th. I apologize if this topic has been mentioned before, but I wonder how many of you drink coffee? I have given it up for my pre op diet and I know I won't be able to have it initially, but I'd love to have it eventually. I drink mine with a teaspoon of non dairy powder and a packet of splenda or sweet and low. i drink coffee with splenda and a lil flavored Creamer. some times ff sometimes not. i love it and love it and drink alot of ice tea too.

Vala 0 Posted March 9, 2009 I drink coffee without issues. Here is the interesting thing - my nutritionist told me that caffeine is really not a big deal. She said that more recent studies on caffeine being a diuretic have shown that the effect is negligible if anything. She told me that because pf this, caffeinated drinks do count toward my daily H2O intake. SWEET! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
