Hi, I am 5 weeks post op and I lost 30 pounds but this week nothing when I start working out will that increase the weight loss? I have to measure all my food intake because I do not get that full feeling. Also I drank an unsweetened ice tea with Splenda is that bad for you?

Exercise certainly helps gain momentum with the weight loss. Splenda is fine. I drink unsweetened tea with splenda as well as propel zero which is sweetened with splenda. Good luck!

Ice tea has caffeine.  What does your plan say about caffeine?  I was not supposed to have any at 5 weeks. 

Actually I rarely have caffeine, even after 5 months.  Don't want to start that addiction again (coffee, lol)

You can exercise by walking but not jogging or lifting weights...common sense, don't you think.  My doctor said to wait for intense exercise for ten or 12 weeks.  It has worked for me.
