I'm only 4 days post op and I'm already really craving some coffee. I will start full liquids tomorrow. When did everyone introduce coffee back into your diet?

Caffeine-free anytime. With my program, caffeine never again

You should be able to have decaf from the start. Mine says no caffeine for 6 weeks.

To get rid of the cravings, I bought me a jar of instant decaffeinated coffee.

I started drinking one caffeinated coffee at 6 weeks

My husband has drank coffee every winter for three years since his sleeve, a pot a day, and has lost 100 lbs.

I weaned off caffeinated coffee in the weeks building up to my surgery; I did 2 weeks of half-caff and then a week of decaf. I figured I didn't need a caffeine headache on top of everything else! My surgeon/plan says no coffee of any type for the first 2 weeks post-op, but after my appointment last week, I was cleared for coffee! I spent the first week on decaf, and this morning moved up to half-caff. Once I run out of the half-caff, I'm going back to regular coffee- mostly because I love it! One thing to be cautious of: Don't load it up with cream and sugar, and stay away from the frou-frou coffee drinks at places like Starbucks. You don't want to drink your calories, especially empty calories!

I'm scared to try

Like leebick, I weaned off of coffee two weeks before surgery. (Also weaned off sugar) I'm 5 weeks post op and enjoy the smell of coffee but no longer enjoy the taste... at all. BLECKKKK! Crazy.
