Here we go! Today I start my liquid diet. Can I have coffee on this? I forgot to ask my doctor, if so what can we use for creamer? Right now I'm using fairlife protein but it it's kind of weird

those diets vary so much - some surgeons don't even require pre-op diets. Check with your clinic as they're the only ones who'll know for sure what your surgeon requires.

Thank you!

Its up to your surgeon. Mine specifically said not to give up caffeine during this time because of how rough it can be on the liquid diet that they dont want to cause more stress lol. but they did say no sugar, and for creamers to use sugar free creamers only. for sugar i used TRUVIA which is what i still use everyday now post op. But yes using protein shakes for creamers is a great way to get in that protein and coffee at the same time. My nutritionist highly recommended that.

Thanks for your response!! That's kinda what I thought too lol but I know after surgery I am not supposed to drink it for 4 weeks she said. Ugh but its worth it I'm so excited for my new journey!! [emoji177][emoji177][emoji177]

Best to check, I was not allowed caffeine in my preop or 4 weeks after. But post op I'm allowed decaf. Luckily I gave it up in the summer before even thinking about surgery, decaf is not for me.
