Why no get a passion tea, no classic with splenda? There are plenty of sugar-free caffeine-free drinks that can be made there

My goal is to get my Protein in... That's hard enough. In addition, I like what I like. I do enjoy the sangria herbal tea. Once I'm able to hold a little more in my sleeve, I'll visit. Maybe it will be a 2017 treat!

Missing coffee but not as much as I thought I would. Just 12 and I am on the lowest does of narcotic pain meds that I have used for years. I think the all Protein diet has reduce my chronic inflation.

Oh yes in that case get your protein! ????. I'm 3 weeks post op but I'm able to chug Water at this point so it's a little easier for me to get extra fluids in.

I'm all about Starbucks.

My clinic allows for a cup of coffee a day - not lattes or mochas or other milk based drinks. I've transitioned well to Americanos and straight espresso...in fact, the sweet drinks turn me off now.

I know everyone's plan is different but I was allowed coffee right away. I only have about 1/2 to 1 cup a day. I don't enjoy it like I use to.

I'm 18 months out and have Starbucks almost once a week. Some days, I have just a dark roast coffee with sugar free Syrup other times I have a skinny peppermint mocha. I account for those calories just like anything else. I normally do not drink my calories but every once in awhile I will indulge.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
