5 lbs but its only been 3 days...lol. I think coffee makes you gain weight because studies show that caffeine makes you hungry (soda too for that matter) I plan not to go back to my coffee/diet soda addiction.

Virginia, you can look at the Running Totals thread in the General Discussion area to get an idea of how LBT members have fared with their banding journeys. (Yeah, I know, it needs updating. I'll get to it, I promise!) It's a sticky thread, so if you go to the section you'll see it on the top of the thread list.

28kg, I drink plenty of coffee, no I dont think it makes you gain weight unless perhaps you have some weird allergy to it.

I eat regular food like anormal person. No high Protein regimes here, I eat carbs, bread, Pasta, rice, sometimes I eat takeway, I have the odd alcoholic drink, I eat a bit more if I go out or go away, in fact I lead a totally normal life. There's no real science to it. Eat a bit less, move a bit more and say bye bye to the weight.

I drink 2 cups of coffee in the morning with sweet n low and half n half. Then I basically stay on a healthy diet of more organic foods. I don't eat a lot of processed foods.
