Cavrona Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Hi all. I have been reading posts for almost a year trying to get the timing right to do my surgery. I finally figured I just need to take the leap..I could wait forever if I don't. I'm scheduled for surgery March 10th...Anyone else going around then?. I'm scared and excited and nervous....I can't wait to begin a new chapter of my life. All of the information here has been so helpfull..I have had so many questions answered by reading your posts...I just noticed the question on coffee...when you are on a pre op diet, can u drink coffee...with cream or splena or nonfat flavored cream....does anyone know? I am a coffeeaholic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clynn Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 If you are getting banded by Dr Ortiz then you will need to get in touch with their nutritionist prior to starting your pre-op diet. She will lay out a diet plan designed for you and your needs, answer any questions you may have, and address any difficulties you run into. She would be the best person to ask your coffee question to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
