89 lbs is great. Sorry your struggling a bit. Drink some protein shakes for extra protein. I drink Premier Protein Shakes. They have 30 grams of protein. Exercising is so important. Walking is great & working out at the gym will help as well. I'm sure you feel much better after losing 89 lbs. Keep taking those supplements. I'm 5 months post op & have lost 100lbs. I'm enjoying exercising again. Don't cheat on your diet. Good Luck to you

Finally hit the 100lb weight loss. I feel great. People are beginning to notice the new me. I love all the compliments. Exercising everyday & it's getting easier. Love buying smaller clothes. I have another 100 to lose. Probably will take me a year. Looking forward to what the next year brings.

Awesome. I'm off my insulin too. Day after surgery

Focus on the positive

The main reason for no coffee is your stomach is very small. It doesn't absorb nutrients like it used to. That's why you have to take supplements. Caffeine deters nutrient absorption. I would stick to decaf tea & coffee for 4 to 5 months. It's tough to give up but I did it. No carbonated drinks either. Do what they tell you to do & you'll be successful. Caffeine also stimulates appetite

I am 5 months post op & have lost 100lbs. Surgery is the best thing I've ever done. Hardest thing I've ever done too. Try Premier Protein Shakes. Chocolate is pretty good. 30 grams of protein. If you're able to exercise start. It will help. I walk 2 miles a day & workout at the gym. I just started drinking coffee after 5 months. They told me decaf only for 1 year. Stay the course. It will turn around. Hope it gets better

Good Luck. Let us know how you did

Oops sorry didn't realize I had already posted on this site. Lol

I'm 4 1/2 months post op. I've lost 100 lbs. I workout at the gym to increase metabolism. I walk everyday. 2 miles 1 day then 1 mile the next. I take in 1000 calories a day. I still drink a protein shake daily & take all my supplements. I'm losing 10 to 12lbs a month. No stall. Don't cheat. Eat sugar free snacks. Eat lean protein & exercise. You can do this. Stay motivated. People can't believe how much weight I've lost. I've got another 100lbs to lose over the next year. Good Luck to you I hope you get back on track

I would eat a lol more. At least a 1000 calories. Eat plenty of protein & drink a protein shake daily. Exercise. Walking is great. Working out at a gym will increase your metabolism. I'm 4 1/2 months post op lost 100 lbs. Exercise daily & eat around 1200 calories. I need to lose another 100lbs. You're doing good. Stay the course. Good Luck to you

You will have no regrets. You're doing all the right things. Good Luck

I'm 4 months post op. Had surgery on Dec 18th. I'm down 94 lbs. Should be at 100 in about 3 weeks. Then want to lose another 100 over the next year. I drink Premier Protein Shakes & eat a lot of Lean Cuisines. I'm lucky if I get 1000 calories in a day. Feel better than I ever have. Walking & working out at the gym daily. People are beginning to notice the new me. I was diabetic & I'm totally off my insulin. Off my cholesterol meds. I like the new me & don't want to go back

Good Luck to you Karen

Good Luck to you

The only time I had dumping syndrome was when I ate 3 pieces of bacon with my breakfast. Never again. If it's greasy I can't eat it. No fried food or sugar. The fudgesicles don't bother me. Only 40 calories & taste pretty close to ice cream.

My 2-weeks pre op was nothing but shakes. Then the same 2 weeks after surgery. You can do this. Time passes fast. Get some sugar free popsicles & jello. It's going to be a major lifestyle change. Follow the guidelines the nutritionist & doctor gave you. I'm 4 months post op &-have had no setbacks. Lost 90lbs so far. Good Luck to you

Congratulations. I had my surgery Dec 18th. I'm down 90lbs. I've gone from a 5x to a 3x. Can't wait to lose another 100lbs & buy smaller clothes

@@hellohealthy Good Luck

@@Tamster01 My surgery was 12/18/14. I've lost 90lbs so far. Now I'm losing about 10lbs a month. I lost 30 before surgery on the liquid diet. Did you cheat? Seems like you would've had better success by now. What does your doctor day?

Big difference

Also there is a Gastric Bypass Meal Plan App for your phone

Keep it up

I exercise everyday. I walk 2 miles & joined a gym to lift weights to help with loose skin

Sugar free fudgesicles are great. When you go on solid foods soon sugar free cookies taste as good as the real ones

1/2 cup total each meal. About 4 ozs
