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

Hubby resumed drinking coffee a few weeks out with no issues. He adds Premier Protein to his instead of milk. I started drinking coffee at 1.5 years out as I wasn't a coffee drinker until recently.

Was about 3 weeks post. Drink mostly cold brew. Low acidic levels. No problems with it.

Doctor allowed me at 4 weeks and today at 6 weeks he said I could have a monster lol... had a monster the flavor was not the same. Just started soft solids today as well.

I waited 3 months. I actually didn't like coffee after SVG surgery. But I now enjoy 10 to 20 oz each day. Yes, irs caffeinated, but ad long as my urine is clear and my weight loss doesn't stall, I assume I'm not dehydrated.

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 keep seeing protein coffee, what is it and where can i find it?

I like big train protein powder. It comes in a mocha that doesn't clump when you add it to your morning coffee. I got mine from Amazon.

I love this brand and flavor. I order from Amazon. I use unsweetened chocolate almond milk and a little ice and blend in my Ninja. This is really great.

Started decaf coffee at 2 months post op. I'm 3 months now and started caffeine coffee last week. No issues. I use either fat free half&half or sugar free coffee mate.

I don't drink coffee, I never did before surgery either, but I do drink black tea. The caffeine doesn't bother me so the team said it was fine once I was past 6 weeks.

I love my coffee. As long as you don't get dehydrated I don't see there should be a problem. I drink 2 cups of coffee every morning with half a Premier protein vanilla shake as the creamer. Taste just as good as coffee mate.It is my breakfast . I get my 30 g of protein right off the bat every morning holds me until the lunch . Right after my coffee and protein I drink 30 ounces of water all before lunch. On occasion I have a cup of coffee at a different time during the day and always use the Premier protein shake as the creamer for the extra protein.Has worked out wonderfully for me. I've lost 86 pounds since March 1.

I waited 2 weeks but nutritionist said I could have it when ever I wanted since I was good with my liquids I love my coffee so happy I can drink it again yummmmmyyy

I've been told to avoid it for a year, I think it is, but I'm kind of wondering whether that will be necessary. I'm going to see how I do with my fluids once I'm post-op.
