Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Coffee Cravings... I will admit that the one thing I long to have and would like to try to have tomorrow is coffee. The nurse's station had their coffee station right outside and I would walk by it looking at it with longing. I want to try and have a cup tomorrow -- any thoughts from anyone out there? I know I should do decaf but I was thinking maybe a little 50/50?

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.  |

| Super Moderator  | Better not, until you are upgraded for your diet, some. Best decaf, too, even then.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  Headaches One of the only "complaints" I have since surgery is that when I sleep I get these really bad headaches.  At first, I thought it was from the morphine, but I only had that the first day after surgery and then stopped because I didn't have any pain and certainly did not want the side effects. The Vicodin my doc prescribed seemed to help, so long as I was sitting up but the moment I laid down, my head would pound.  My husband thinks it may be an issue of lying "prone" versus sleeping elevated. I got one last night again and sleeping propped up seemed to help diminish the pain (along with a Vicodin and ice pak). But today, the nurse from my insurance checked in on me and she suggested that it actually might also be some caffine withdrawal and if I have just a little (she suggested a couple of sips) that it may actually help.  I'll have to see what tonight brings and then decide tomorrow morning.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | it tends to "upset" the pouch ESPECIALLY early out. something to do with stimulants. i think i drank some iced coffee by mistake like a month out and i puked for TWO DAYS straight. i know everyone is different, but this early out (days) you should be spared puking at least until you are healed a bit lol!
