That energy you get from your coffee ain't REAL energy; it's the effect

you're feeling from the coffee being a stimulant--just like certain drugs are

stimulants. I have nothing against coffee myself; it's just that it really

contributes nothing to our health and well-being. Any " benefits " are only

perceived, and not real. The real worry here is that if you need caffeine to

give you " energy " you are probably missing something important in your daily

nutrition and maybe it would be good to try and find out what instead of

" medicating " with coffee. JMHO.

ya but ya know not every single thing that passes our lips has to be healthy! I

did NOT have this surgery to spend the rest of my life feeling deprived! Yes I

have had to make drastic life-style changes and to rethink my nutritional

standards (like sugar and carbs can NOT be my main food groups anymore! LOL)

However! I work night shift, and even when I am off work, I am not one that

wakes up bright eyed and bushy tailed and dang! coffee helps me become human!

LOL Diet coke/pepsi? a 20ounce bottle will last me 4 days, I am not giving it

up! it has no calories and the concept of the carbonation " stretching " the pouch

is ludicrous! yes it will stretch with gas, you belch, it goes back to normal. I

am being very good for the most part with the post op diet, however I believe

the main thing to learn here is everything in moderation eventually. IMHO

Pout. I don't like where you aid carbs & sugar is not the main food group.

Next thing, you'll be saying we must drink water every day.

Burst my happy little bubble.

nutritional value!!!!!!!!!1 heheheh
