I had surgery 13 days ago, and I'm meeting a dear friend at Starbucks today. I don't go there often, so I'm not familiar with their menu. Any beverage suggestions?

13 days ago?

Water or decaf coffee (black, no sugar)?

Bottled water?

Don't go there at all!!!

Passion tea unsweetened

I went with my friends 5 days after surgery and had a venti iced unsweetened green tea to which I added a lemonade Protein powder. Took a while for it to mix in, LOL. And then sat and sipped it slowly for the hour and a half while we were there yukking it up.

It was a little early to be out and about, but it was so good to see friends that it was worth it!

Skinny iced coffee with sugar free syrup

When I was post-op my darling husband would stop on his way home from work (on his overnight shifts) and pick me up a hot peppermint tea, naturally decaf, and I would add a splenda, and sometimes pour it over ice, sometimes the warm tea made my healing tummy feel so much better. There are tons of tea options, or do one of their "skinny" drinks. I honestly don't care for their coffee, but love their tea options. I believe they serve Tazo tea, so you can look those up before you go to see what is decaf.

Chocolate banana smoothie with double the protein. Super yummy and a really good alternative to the standard protein shake. You may only be able to have half or less but it is really good and has a good amount of protein.
