Hey...that is true...like ten pounds is a lot if you think about it. I couldn't loose that in a year. I am in the same boat. I got banded three months ago and i have lost 27 lbs. I feel like it's not enough either. For the last six to seven weeks i have been working out like a dog...six days a week! for two hours. I could now run three miles which was never impossible. But i feel like i could still eat. I have seven cc in my band im just wondering when i will hit that point. But good luck to you, it's hard but don't give up : )
