I was banded on 11/15 and lost 13lbs the first 2 weeks. I am on the 2nd day of my 4 week and have not lost any additional weight. It is easy to get discouraged especially when you know your following the rules but I read that the weightloss slows down and you feel more hungry prior to your first fill because the swelling has gone down and you body is trying to adjust to the changes your making.
