I have been drinking weak instant coffee since three days post op, about 3 cups a day, no espresso. I haven't had any problems so far. My guess is that most doctors tend to prohibit it because of stomach acidity and fluid intake. I take an anti-acid drug and i have no fluid intake issues, so things are ok. I have had about 8 espressos a day pre op and my doctors said that lots of over weight people are "coffee fiend" because of their lousy sleep, so i'm hoping that with the weight loss my sleep will get better and my desire for coffee (and cigaretts) will be reduced.

My work is somewhat physical and i asked my doctor today (I'm 10 day post-op) when would i be able to return to normal physical activity including carrying 20-30 lb here and there and some climbing on ladders and such. He told me to wait about a month post op. This "about a month" rule of thumb is assuming you went through a normal healing process with no complications,

Considering that just 7 days ago you had your abdominal muscles cut in a few spots, i would let them heal for while. Just think how long it takes any wound to heal before you can apply any kind of tension on the tissue
