Will I Ever Enjoy Another Latt Again?



Recommended Posts

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

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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
