My long love affair with my beloved coffee has come to an abrupt end! No warning, no signs, just over!!! Today was the second time, I tried to drink a cup of coffee, decaf, but, it was really good! Well, it used to be:( It tasted like I don't know what, just nasty!!! Darn taste buds!!! Well, farewell my beloved, nothing but fond memories.....tears, tears, tears...........

Yeah, I feel the same way about diet coke. Miss my routine of a DC every morning. Then it just occurred to me that I can no longer have beer. I don't drink often but I don't drink liquor at all. Don't ever think about it until someone says No, No, no. then you want it.

oh my - i hope my tastebuds still enjoy coffee when I'm allowed to have it post op.....not looking forward to taste bud changes....is there anything else that just tastes nasty now and not before??

Of all things, water tastes nasty.

My favorite juice---Apple----:-(

thank you Jesus coffee still taste delicious to me... my favorite protein shake is Nectar Cappaccino and yesterday I made ice-cream out of it mixed with almond milk.

Only thing I could not handle so far (day 14) was some of the pain medications they gave me liquid form of in the hospital. Just opted for the mild pain, the stuff made me gag.

Nectar cappuccino??? What / where/?? Does it have caffeine???

So far, coffee is the first thing that has changed post sleeve! On that note, reese peanut butter cups, butter peacan ice cream, cheesecake, cadbury milk chocolate bars, etc., they had better change too, into the "just plain nasty" bin!!! Lol!!!

Best advice from my nurse was to use watered down grape juice to chase that nasty med taste.... It really worked I would have one med cup with meds in one hand and a med cup of grape juice in the other.

Try the Chike Protein iced coffee. It has 20g of protein as well as caffeine and hits the spot for me. It does not have that "protein" taste or smell and goes down pretty easy.

I just got some Big Train in the mail. Sooo yummy! I tried the mocha and loved it. Can't have it for a while after surgery, but it'll be something to look forward to in the winter.
