I had the sane issue !!! Make sure not to over eat now. Because u can over stretch the pouch and eventually slip your band. Eat sensibly. And it will come down on it's own.

congrats on making the first step !!! its def the most important. <a href="http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wg4BK7L/"> <img border="0" src="http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/t/wg4BK7L/weight.png"></a>

Hi Nina, The most important thing you have to understand is that everyone has a different reaction to the lapband. Some like me, loose weight at a fast pace and some dont. However, you must be proud of yourself for the 25 you already lost !!! Also, you must also start working on your eating habits, have you tried going to therapy. Remember that the lap band helps us physically, but if your hunger is psychological then sometimes we have to take it a step further. Dont feel discouraged. fight on !!! slowly but surely you will get there !!! try to make healthy eating choices, and uptake your exercise routine a bit. you would be surprised how much that has a change on your weight loss. GOOD LUCK JR
