Coffee drinkers,

When was your first cup after surgery? What did you add to it? How did it sit with your sleeve?

6 weeks or so,

Splenda and Fairlife milk.

Been going at it ever since.

Good stuff.

3 months

Nothing, I always take my coffee black.

No problems whatsoever! My body runs on coffee (lots of it) and that has not changed.

ETA: my hospital brought me hot decaf the day after surgery and I had that with no problems either. I didn't bother with decaf once I went home though, I didn't really see the point. But I went right back to full test coffee when I was okayed for it.

I drank decaf for the first three weeks and then started drinking 1 cup of caffeine coffee each day. After one cup, if I want more.... I'll go to decaf.

Good deal. I'm only 2 weeks out. I have an irrational fear of putting anything to hot in my sleeve lol. I'll probably try a sip of my hubbies and go from there. Thank y'all!

Back away from my coffee!!!!

I had a cup (a few sips) the night I got home from the hospital with 1/2 & 1/2. I make room for a cup a day on all of my lists: calorie, Protein, etc.

Afternoon, I switch to Earl Grey tea, simply because I love that too.

Don't be mess'n with my caffeine!!! The bodies of those who did have never been found...

Is it ok to put fat free creamer in coffee? I love coffee but I have been putting vanilla protein shakes in my coffee but I'm craving the creamer

Talk to your Nut. about it.

Together, her and I adjusted my diet to allow me to have 1/2 & 1/2 in my morning coffee.

It's all about switching things around --give and take with your daily menu.

I've been using the sugar free liquid Coffeemate French Vanilla since the day I came home from surgery and my NUT has no problem with it. I've also used the sugar free Italian Creme and Hazelnut.

I waited about a month... maybe two? I drink 2-3 cups a day (plus sometimes a cup of decaf in the evening). I use Torani sugar-free syrups and 2% Fairlife milk. Or if I'm out, I put in Splenda and vanilla soymilk. Or Splenda and half and half, if I'm at a diner or something.

About 6 weeks maybe a little longer. It is all a blur now.

At first I was making iced coffee drinks with cold brewed coffee and unflavored Protein.

I have a cup every morning with a few drops of stevia and 1TB 1/2 and 1/2.

I think about 6 weeks. I really shouldn't even be drinking it with my GERD, but I try to limit it.

I have to have some vices, don't I??

What store do y'all find the torani syrups from?

I find Torani syrups either at World Market, Ralph's, and Von's. Or if you don't live by any of those store Amazon also sells them.

I get it at WalMart. They have limited flavors at my store, just vanilla, Hazelnut, and Caramel that are sugarfree.

I'm a coffee drinker for many years.....and it's hard not to have coffee but I went for decaf until I reach the six weeks... I mean it's better than nothing!! Im on my second week after surgery!!
