I'm 3 weeks post-op and I'm so tired and I don't want to be tired and grumpy with little patience at work.

I am also 3 weeks out. I started Decaf in the hospital. Decaf still has a little bit of caffeine in it. Maybe start there and ask the Dr. after that if you can do half-caf.

Two weeks out. I have one regular cup with Splenda and a little non dairy creamer in the morning. I don't always drink it all but it hasn't bothered me at all and I don't count it in my Water for the day. I feel better and it also helps me have no constipation. I'm not advocating it just sharing my experience.

I am 3 weeks out today! I have been doing great! I have only had one day that I felt sick after eating but it was bcuz I ate to fast. But I'm not in pain when I get out of bed anymore. I have more energy but I do find that sometimes I am grumpy and others I am happy. It's all a process our bodies are going through I was told. Good luck to all!

My doctor said after three months so I waited until then. I was scared to "ruin" anything

I never stopped. My program said to cut it down to 1 or 2 cups a day.

I am 8 days post op my body is a little achy, my incisions are a little sore but the worst is getting out of breath easily and getting severely fatigued. I could go up the stairs to shower and do a few things and get really winded and spotty vision. Has anyone else had this happen? Should I be worried?

Could be from a lack of fluids or calories. Are you getting enough Water and Protein each day?

Yes it absolutely can. Can you get in at least 2 Protein shakes per day? Also try drinking liquids at room temp or warm that may help them go down. If you can't do that you may need to call your doctor for some IV fluids . It sounds like you could be very dehydrated.

Before my RNY gastric bypass surgery I used to be an avid coffee lover. Since my surgery I can't tolerate coffee at all now for some reason. Instead of coffee I now drink black tea. I'm now almost 5 months post op.

About 3 weeks post op. But I don't crave it as much, so I have made one small cup a day.

I am about 4 month post op and I started drinking coffee again at about 6 weeks.. but I only drink a cup or 2 at most a day. Just make sure you are keeping up with your other fluids.
