I was a heavy coffee drinker preop. But now dont care for it. I was also a smoker. I quit 2 weeks preop but still craved and cheated occasionally. Since surgery, cant stand the smell and have no cravings. Weird, but thankful.

I been drinking Decaf, , but not the instant kind. It actually is delicious I use skin milk and some flavored Creamer . I also just started to make ice coffee and been putting Protein Powder in it and its wonderful... I can get the Protein i need and it taste great. I am 4 weeks post op and still struggle with getting the requirements in.

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 can't tell the difference either between Decaf and regular and I've been drinking coffee since the age of 5!!! I think it's mental!

I guess I'm the "bad girl" of the bunch. I do drink coffee every day. I used to drink a venti everyday and now I drink a tall. It's all I have room for but I do enjoy every sip. I love my coffee and I've done very well. Sleeved on 12/13 at 246 and I'm at 185.1 this morning.

Yes, I still drink caffeinated coffee. It is one guilty pleasure I really enjoy. I just don't drink near as much. I'm satisfied with a small cup now, maybe two cups.

At work I have my premiere Protein shake (30 gm protein) mixed with equal parts black coffee. it helps me get the Protein Shake down which I find disgustly sweet without the coffee.< /div>

I do the same thing! Love it!

My Breakfast is a shot of sugar free vanilla Syrup, 8oz of skim milk and six oz of cafinated coffee for a home made latte. I did abstain, and honestly I don't know the diff between caffeinated or not (I was never effected by caffein) but once my doc allowed it (at three months, but my term was longer because of complications) I went back to the regular stuff. It's easier because it's what everyone else drinks around here.

I use a kurieg (I think one is by them and the other machine is by cuisinart?) and do single servings. costco sells large boxes of them cheap. The Kurieg machine has no reservoir (kind of like the single cup ones you see in hotels now) and I have to say it preforms better than the much more expensive cuisinart machine. I have one on the top floor of the house and one on the main level so I tend to use whichever is handier, but for the bucks, the cheap K machine was a better choice than the Cuisinart, even without a reservoir.

I am totally addicted to the Atkins advantage cafe caramel shake. It tastes great!! Made with real coffee. Even add it to Decaf iced coffee sometimes if I feel tired. 15g Protein but I love it as a treat sometimes if I'm craving something sweet. I was a huge coffee drinker and now this would probably be the only one I really love. I can't finish a cup of regular coffee anymore. I uses to have up to 11 cups a day before.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
