Sweetheart, you just absolutely made my day! I went to my 2 week follow-up yesterday and was told I'd lost 7.5 pounds. I cried. I couldn't believe that I'd ONLY lost 7.5 pounds after not eating for 2 whole friggin weeks! My doctor assured me that 2 - 3 pounds a week is "normal" weight loss with lap band ... guess I was aiming for "above-normal." I was totally bummed this morning, to the point of not wanting to drink my protein shake out of sheer defiance ... I'm sorry you were disappointed too but gotta admit that it makes me feel better to know that I'm not alone. Make you a deal ... you hang in there & I will too!!! After a year, if we've still only lost 4 - 7 pounds, you & me will meet up at the steak house and discuss our frustrations over a t-bone, baked potatoe, & hot fresh rolls covered in butter deal?
