COFFEE - How soon did you have it?



Recommended Posts

it seems like I could start having Decaf a month or so out. I had to wait six months before starting back on caffeinated, and we were limited to 1-2 cups a day (decaf was unlimited, though). Surgeons vary quite a bit on this, though. Some allow caffeinated coffee right away - others ban it for life.

It was days after surgery before I had my first sip. Start with a sip. See how you tolerate it. If you tolerate it well, have a little more. If you don't tolerate it well, you're not ready. Try again a week or so later. Good luck!

I had a Decaf small black coffee from Mcdonalds, no cream and 2 stevia packets 3 days after surgery. I wanted to release some of the gas in my stomach and use the bathroom and it worked. It was the best cup of coffee I have ever had.

I was allowed Decaf right away, even in hospital. Caffeine, never.

This will be the hardest part for me lol. Carbs and sugar; everything else will be missed of course but my coffee... that will be very hard for me. My nutritionist said a month, I will need to follow what ever my surgeon says too of course. I don't care for carbonated drinks, so I'm fine there. I may just need to try to use Decaf as much as possible :/

I was told that coffee (caffeinated & decaf) can cause gastric ulcers so it's best to stop drinking it post WLS. Instead, drink green tea (with or without caffeine) as multiple research studies shows it helps with weight loss and prevents gastric ulcers.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
