Coffee?

I had the sleeve on 5/16/17

When did you all start back drinking coffee and did you do decaf or caffeine?

Didn't your surgeon give you instructions?

I tried regular black coffee two months out. I totally regretted it, massive heartburn and reflux. I would suggest trying decaf first and see how you respond.

I was interested in this answer also...

I resumed my coffee habit at two months post-op.

I've never drank the decaf and never will. Caffeine is the entire point of drinking coffee, at least for me. I drink at least three cups per day since it tames my appetite.

I do chike protein coffee it is AMAZING. I love the mocha one. Seriously if you haven't heard of it give it a try you will not be disappointed. I started having it 1 month post op and it has been great plus it helps me with my protein!

I drank a cup of decaf day two. No problem. No caffeine. Caffeine is actually a pretty power irritant to the stomach. One of the causes of gastritis. That's no good for a new stomach.

As soon as my insanely strict post op diet let me. 10 days clears, then I think another week full liquids. Coffee was allowed after. I made coffee protein drinks for several years; they were my lifesaver because I didn't have much appetite for breakfast and needed to boost my protein counts.

I waited 3 weeks to have a regular coffee. I drank decaf on day 3.

I drink 3 cups a day now with zero issues.

I'm drinking regular coffee (2 cups per day) and was sleeved 5/22.

My NUT said I could have a cup of coffee a day. And so i did. I added a half scoop of Unjury unflavored protein at times.


So funny you ask this, I was sleeved on 5/17 and just had my first cup of coffee this week. I stayed close to home that morning just in case... but it was fine.

My NUT has coffee/caffeine on the no go list for life, but I am refusing that little piece of advice. I follow everything else in my diet to the letter, but if my tummy can tolerate coffee, I am not going to deny myself this forever. I talked to some other sleevers, and haven't met anyone who had weight loss problems as a result, just a few whose tummies are too sensitive for it.

I was sleeved on 5/18..... I waited a few weeks. I tried decaf and spit it out! I drank the real stuff at 1/2 cup and was full. I also added some premiere to it as well. Hang in there
