Decaf and herbal teas are fine. Best success!

Yes they are fine - I would stay away from caffeine, even though it is pre surgery because you can't have it after. I drink the celestial seasonings tea. My favorite is Country Peach Passion. The great thing about Celestial seasonings is they have tons of flavors and most of them you can get in a variety pack so you don't buy a whole pack of something you wont like. Good luck!

Some people have a hard time post op with "hot" liquids. It can cause a little discomfort to the pouch. But it isn't bad to drink them. As long as you sip, sip, sip, or gulp them down to fast post op, you will do fine. You are required to drink caffeine free tea, etc.

I am two weeks Lap Band post op. I have been drinking a variety of hot teas, mostly decaf, since it got cold here! I love the Bigelo mint and Celestial Seasonings peppermint. I don't even put any sweetener in them and they count toward my daily liquid intake of 48-64 oz. of fluid/day and they really help warm me up without adding calories!
