Coffee



Recommended Posts

There is the risk for ulcers, the sensitivity of the new stomach and most importantly it will dehydrate.

So I was told not to do full caffeine..BUT, if I do, I must make up the difference by drinking lots more Water to compensate.

I feel that I need some coffee to help me avoid Constipation. It seems to be the only thing that works- so I do a cup in the morning but try to drink lots of Water to make up for it.

I had surgery on Sept. 6th and was told at my 4 wk. appt. that it was OK to have some Decaf. coffee. I have been having a cup every morning for the past week and have had no problems.

I just discovered Click brand. It has both caffeinated and non caffeinated versions. After trying some really unpleasant drink options this week, I am really pleased with the taste. You can order a buy one get one free sample to see if you like them or not, which is very handy. The Protein is a little bit less than some of the other options, and the carb count is higher but it really does taste good.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
