I am on the pre-op clear liquid diet for the lap band surgery. )it is tomorrow) Anyway, I am wondering if I am allowed to have sugarfree decaf coffee?

Chicken broth, gingerale and light tea was all I could drink for the 2 days pre-op. At the time of my surgery, we weren't allowed to eat cherry popsicles or cherry jello even. Something with the dye we weren't allowed to have. Coffee is a no/no. Even decaf. Coffee is a stimulant and is hard for the kidneys to process. So I have resisted it for the past 2 years. Try to use this oppurtunity to get into good habits so you won't experience the weight gain down the line. Good luck and God speed your recovery. Remember to walk, sip & breathe. Elissa
