My doc is very much so against caffeine, and I feel like decaf is a gateway drug!

Mine said no coffee but if you have to decaf. Think of it like this your getting your fluids in too.

I always go for green yogurt for a snack. High in protein AND calcium. Otherwise, Atkins have protein bars that are high in protein and low in sugars (read: 1 gram sugar!). Otherwise roasted chickpeas are yummy too! You're doing an amazing job!!!

Yes weight loss has been really slow since my 3 month appt.

How is it going now that your about to be 6 months post-op?

Hi everyone,

Yesterday was 6 months post-op for me. I have my 6 month post-op appointment next weeks. I am really happy with my progress thus far, however i fear that I wont reach my goal :( .....

Overall I feel GREAT!!!

I have hope :)

Hey Mizzlaw,

I see we have the same goal.... We are soooo close!

Keep up the amazing work!

I know how you feel. Seems like the scale hates me!! But I just get up and do it all over again. It will come off I think we are just out of the "honeymoon" period ;)

What foods are you eating?

What foods are you all eating, 6 months post-op?

There really isn't anything that I am not eating. I still avoid pasta and any bread I eat is very very limited maybe once or twice a month. I am down 85 pounds and still have 50-60 to lose. My goal right now is to reach onderland. In which by Friday I should be.

I had my 6 month check up today. All is well. I am a little low in the iron department but was told to double up on the iron and get blood work done in 3 months. I only have 22 pounds to go until goal and my doctor was very happy. I'm so happy! I weigh 152.
