I'm 4 weeks out and feeling really good.

Just starting to miss my morning cup of brewed coffee. Originally I was told decaf only which just doesn't do it for me.

What have you been told about caffeine??

Also want to start yoga soon.

Anybody practicing? At what week did you get the clearance??

Thanks so much!

Be well!!

I was cleared for coffee at my 8 week appointment, but had to pinky shake that I wouldn't go back to my old habits of 5-6 cups of regular coffee per day.

I am 8 months out now - I allow myself 2 cups of regular now and 1-2 cups of decaf. I find too much caffeine will trigger hunger, so be mindful of how you feel afterwards. Find your happy medium!

I added coffee back when I got to full liquids. I have one cup every morning. I add a vanilla Protein shake with 2 tbs of generic benefiber and it makes a great latte for Breakfast. I also resumed yoga at day 8. I was told go slow listen to your body, and if it hurts dont do it. I had an active yoga practice so i was resuming my practice not beginning one. Look for classes that are gentle, save ashtanga or vinyasa flow classes till about 6 weeks out.
