I am wondering if after my surgery if I will ever be able to enjoy my 12 oz. sugar-free caramel latte w/ 1% milk again or should I get myself used to the idea of staying away from coffee and milk for good? I am okay with wheat and other carbs and even sugar, but my latte will be oh so hard!

Go decaf during your full liquid phase and it's fine.

I have 5 cups of regular coffee a day! and lattes and sugar free coffee drinks! and no problem!

You do know that doing this puts your tummy at high risk for ulcers. Ulcers in a sleeve means you can lose your stomach.....

yes! I always drank coffee every morning, and afternoon, and my surgeon said that during endoscopies my tummy looked amazingly healthy, so he told me it was ok! :s

well i'm not a coffee/latte drinker but i remember a post from someone else who liked them. just Google drink click they do a bunch of coffee/espresso/latte mixes. you might try those if you really need to get a fix.

I've been drinking 12oz decaf soy lattes, about once a week. I don't use flavor or sweetners, but it still feels like a teat (with a bit of protein & calcium to boot)!

my surgeon & nut both said one black cup a day isnt too bad- you may feel too jittery for much more.

They also really press that we should try to limit to 2-3 week if you are doing lattes, iced coffee, etc (even FF, skinny, SF, etc because of the carbs).

Try (really try) to make Click Protein powder work for you- if not, just offset your latte intake with extra work outs!

I have seen several posts from coffee lovers making iced coffee and latt's with protein powder and coffee. Do a quick search...maybe you will find something you like.

I just ordered some small packs to try out from this company. You may like them, too.
