I'm a coffee fan so it's naturally difficult for me to be away from the richness of coffee.

What I wanna know is when is it OK to have Decaf coffee?

I'm currently 12 days post-op so is this a good time for me to be able to have coffee? Maybe just even a 1/4 cup allowance of it.

I had Decaf coffee about 2 weeks post op. my Nut. said it counted towards my liquid intake.

Everyone has different Dr orders on this.

Mine was ok with Decaf during pre-op and post-op then ok'd to try caf at 6 months.

I am allowed coffee (any kind) at 12 weeks, but prior to that I wasn't even allowed Decaf. Check with your doctor or nutritionist.

I LOVE/LOVED coffee...when I could start drinking it I COULDN"T stand the taste! I try every single day to have a cup and I just can't do it. My tastebuds certainly have changed!

Chike and Unjury make coffee flavored Protein Shakes that are pretty good cold. Also my grocery store sells a coffee extract for flavoring things. Those might help until your doc okays the Real Thing. I'm pre-planning for it now, as I LOVE how coffee tastes and hate to start the day without my beloved Verismo Latete. GOod luck!

Go slow if you do try it. My sleeve didnt like any coffee until post op month 4. Im now 5 months post op.

I could occassionally get it down before this with a scoop of Protein powder but not always.

Follow your drs orders on this tho. They may have specific coffee rules. Call and ask to verify.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
