Does anyone still wake up and have that cup of hot coffee just like before you got your band? The craving yo hold that hot cup was overwhelming today so I made myself a cup. Tastes like heaven. I use 1% milk and only one sugar anyway so I don't think its bad. Tea just hasn't been cutting it! Should I not have had the coffee and stick to tea or not worry..its only one cup !!

My nutrionist said that I could have my one cup of coffee in the morning with fat free half and half and splenda. I didn't have it the 2 days after surgery but I have had it ever since.

I get up befor all the kids...sit and enjoy my coffee and my quiet time..

Befor starting my new life Id put whole milk and 2 t. of sugar in it..

Now I have it with skim milk and NO sugar..

I say enjoy !!!

The stomach is a muscle and caffeine can cause it to move too much. Caffeeine also will dehydrate a body that doesn't take in enough fluids. For these two reasons, my doc says absolutely no caffeeine. I have replaced my much loved morning coffee with a flavored decaf, and now that my body is used to no caffeeine, I don't even miss a thing. I get to have my coffee, and I get to drink it away from home as well. It's just not worth the possibilities involved, so I broke my addiction to caffeeine.

Cant get off the coffee. I tried desperately. My reward? Migraines! Lol. Skim milk & splenda.

I still have my coffee I enjoy that first cup.

yes, i have a cup every day.......sometimes 2

I gave up my morning cup for about two months but once it started getting cold in the mornings I started to crave the warmth of it. So I'm back on the juice.

My dr said it was fine to have coffee even in the Clear liquids stage but no creamer. (Which I cannot do!) This is why I originally broke the habit.
