Coffee

My nutritionist required no coffee (regular or decaf) and no caffeinated tea for 3 months. I started drinking coffee as soon as I was cleared for it. Just no cream or sugar. I just have it with soy milk.

I have noticed that cold brew is a lot easier on my stomach. When coffee is brewed with hot Water it speeds up brewing but also draws the acid out of the coffee. Cold brewing takes longer and doesn't use high temperatures so it's much smoother. It's great considering adding acid to the sleeve can cause a lot of irritation. I'm a bit of a coffee snob and I've found great cold brews in the refrigerated section. My favorite is Stok unsweetened. Super smooth flavor!

Definitely check with your surgical team to see what they say but I would absolutely recommend staying away from it for at least a few months.

I do a weekly starbucks mocha frap with almondmilk which cuts the sweetness and a scoop or two of Protein ,that's a treat for me that I don't feel guilty about and I'm getting my protein in as well .And if it don't go there I go this other coffee shop that makes a fitfrap and its has 25 grams of protein as well .
