No Caffine, Really??

My surgeon said it was a no-no for 3-4 months post op. As soon as he gave me the "go ahead" on it, I got some CLICK. So now, I have my coffee in the morning, but at least it has some nutritional benefit to it. (15g protein). It also insures that I actually have a protein drink in the morning...where before, I was drinking one, "if I felt like it". BAD ME!
At a month out, however. It really isn't going to do you any good. Your body is feeling drained because it's healing from a traumatic event. Get out and walk if you can. If not, do bicycle type moves at your desk, or on the couch. Movement, at this stage, will help A TON!   Good luck

Hello coffee drinkers!

I have a treat for you!!!
Coffee with vitamins/minerals and immune fighting goods!!

Who ever thought they could put this in coffee??

Just like those SOBE and Lifewater puts it in their juice!!

I have a product that has it hot and soon will have it cold!!

YUM!! Coffee CAN be good for you!!

Ask me how!  And you too can bring it to your area!!

Thanks,
Lisa

You have my permission. Go forth and drink.

Seriously---you're an adult, and it's YOUR decision. Do some research on-line, and weigh the true scientific value of the things you read. (For instance, a study published by the NHI is worth far more than one published in the Enquirer. *grin*) Then decide if YOU choose to have caffeine.

I drink about a GALLON of iced tea each and every day, and have since my surgery almost six years ago. No problems here.

 I have it. I know tons of WLS patients who drink coffee - with *gasp* caffine. In fact, if you had been a bystander at the Atlanta Obesity Help Convention, you would have seen a bajillion folks with caffine-infused goodness in hand. 

It all comes down to a personal choice. I figure that coffee is better than a chocolate milkshake any day! :) It's a "to each his own" kind of thing.
