starbucks question



Recommended Posts

I agree Pik. :P

Well, I made a bariatric safe pumpkin spice coffee drink yesterday. Discusting! I poured it out.

Today I bought 1/2 caf coffee. I'll try it plain tomorrow. It's what I drank pre-surgery. If it tastes gross too then I will try regular caff coffee. If that tastes gross too then I will be very sad :( because that will only mean that my taste buds have changed post surgery. And that would just.plain.suck!. My husband would be happy because he can't stand the smell of coffee.

But I have determined that I hate the taste of all of these fake sugars. So gross tasting. I think that's the real problem with any Starbucks/non-starbuck's coffee's. :( blah

I tried to drink a Decaf (which I usually like just fine) yesterday and it was so bad. I couldn't even drink it. I have to wonder if I just don't drink coffee anymore! That would suck because I have a million K cups!

Tall (or grande) nonfat cappucino (decaf or regular).

Tall has 60 cal and Protein from the milk. You can add fake sugar if you like.

I do sometimes but since I've been off of caffeine for 9 weeks and want to get off bp med I figure it's better not to start it back up. ;) but I am drinking a plain half caff coffee now and it tastes fine. Yay!

I am so jealous. I bet if I used regulat half and half it wouldn't be so gross.

I added hot Water so it's more like 3/4 Decaf, 1/4 caf ;)

I occasionally get an iced coffee skinny caramel with half and half. I don't have any caffeine restrictions on my plan. Honestly It's way more effective than any laxative out there. LOL.

Apple Chai is my favorite. It's a chai tea latte but instead of milk they use apple juice

Oh my goodness YUM! I gotta try that! Or better yet let my 16 year old with the super fast metabolism order it and have a few sips LOL! Probably not a whole lot of Apple juice though, right?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
