First experience with caffeine since surgery!



Recommended Posts

Ok,

So I went and got a small light frap from Starbucks.... I haven't had any caffeine since before my pre-op diet lol. I only drank about 1/3 of the small and that was around 8p.m. I gave the rest to my boyfriend and I'm bouncing off the walls. I've been jogging and running through my house like a mad person. Everyone has been telling me that I'm talking really loud and I can't tell lol. I just challenged my boyfriend to a race outside and he thinks I've lost it. I have soooo much energy, however I'm not drinking one of those again for a while. The sad part about this all is that I didn't even remember getting the starbucks until I saw the empty cup that my boyfriend threw in the trash. This has been an interesting day lol!

P.S. I also bought a pair of Reebok Reeflex and I'm in love with these shoes- I don't want t take them off :)

Many years ago I stopped caffeine for about 3 years. I was having Migraines and they said it was one of the possible triggers. My first coffee after that was at a state park. I started out sitting on top of a picnic table and ended up walking about 4 miles down the walk path. AFTER I got the 4 miles it started to wear off and then I realized I had to get back to my car.

I had forgotten all about that. Thank you for the warning!!! Your boyfriend was probably wondering what they'd spiked your lite frap with! The part that amazes me is that you didn't even remember getting it. That's so funny. I'm so tired these days I was really wanting my caffeine back but now I"m not so sure!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
