Does anyone still drink caffeinated coffee?

I was a every day coffee drinker and I am now 8 wks out and haven't had a cup since surgery. Just don't have the stomach for it no more, LOL, (no punt intended).

I drank a lot of coffee before and still do. Only now it's decaf!!!!! I can't tell the difference once I got over the no caffeine thing.

I was doing decaf for about 3 weeks. Then I did half caf for a few days and now regular. I make one cup and usually drink about half. Good stuff. It makes me happy.

I drink a cup of white chocolate caramel cappuccino before work.

My surgeon says 2x is fine for caffeine. Usually stick to tea.

You guys are great. I think I may slip but I am going to try my hardest. I really want to stick to the plan. Thanks guys!

My surgeon discouraged it. Well he said none in the first 4 weeks and to be strict about it. But he encouraged me to stop all together if I was going a month without it anyway. He said if I must he wouldn't do more than 1 per day and to make sure that it's watered down or has a lot of skim milk in it. I don't know what I'll do. I love my coffee. I want to be healthy but I don't want to deprave myself of everything I enjoy I've never had problems with stomach ulcers or reflux, so I am thinking if the sleeve doesn't change that, I will go ahead and have my coffee

Yes! Everyday!

I fessed up to the NUT yesterday for my session. She said as long as it doesn't adversely effect you, such as are you getting all your liquids in? Does it set ok in your tummy? If so, a cup is just fine. For me, I am well over the 64 oz of liquids and have no acid reflux. I do take a chewable pepsid twice a day per my post op instructions.

Another bonus is it helps me poop! I know TMI but it really does.

What's the issues with coffee? Just started back and my doc was ok with two cups a day if I must...and I must!

I drank a lot pre surgery. At one month post op my surgeon said I could have it again.

oh hell yes.

Yes! Everyday!

Me too ????

Lots of different views but for the most part it has to do with the fact that it can act as a diuretic and keeping hydrated in the beginning is essential. Also, it can cause acid relfux. That is my understanding.
