I understand you situation...I had gastric bypass in 2003 but I have slowly gained back about 40 of the 140 lbs I had lost. My doctor actually specifically told me to cut carbs.

I had gastric bypass in 2003. Lost about 145 lbs. Gained back about 30-35 over the past few years. I am back in the gym, working with a trainer and eating clean(er). I usually have 1 cheat meal a week. But even with all of this, my number on my scale isn't going down either. My trainer said to be patient "...you didn't…

I am going to switch back to olive oil starting today to see if anything changes. As for caffeine, there have been no major fluctuations. I still have my morning cup of coffee and an occasional tea or diet coke a couple times a week, I am going to give it a few more days and if it doesn't let up, go see my doctor. My…
