Unhappy I miss certain beverages!

Does anyone drink decaf coffee and how does it affect you? I miss my coffee and diet coke so bad. I know it isn't good for us but I love them both. I'm tired of herbal tea, water, and crystal lite!!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I can honestly say that I had a hard time giving up the coffee...everything else was a breeze! When I decided that I wanted to look further into this surgery I dropped my diet coke at that moment (about 6 months ago). I was an all day coffee drinker before surgery, but now, I do allow myself to drink 1/2-1 cup of coffee in the morning. BUT, I have to add an extra glass of water to my daily intake because of that.

I was told that if I leave the soda open in the frig to allow the fizz to go away so if you can drink flat soda, we can have soda (sugar free of course.) I have made myself a root beer float with diet flat root beer, vanilla Unjury(protein powder) and ice in a blender It is very good. As for Coffee yes I was told I can have decaff if I want it.
I do know that water gets awful after a while LOL . What is strange is that Crystal lite seems to sweet for me but have tried diet snapple and Lipton's diet green tea's are really good too.

I drink decaf and it all depends on how you make it. I like mine strong and it taste the same to me. I will admit on days when I haven't slept well I really wish I could have a Mt Dew to get me going but I stick with the decaf. There was a period of about 3 weeks were I couldn't even handle the decaf. The pouch was very picky but now I am back to it and it really makes my mornings more enjoyable. Sometimes I mix in my Elite Whey Chocolate Mint protein poweder. Yummy!
