Burd1tt 0 Posted March 1, 2011 I had the lap band procedure 12 days ago and have lost 10 pounds. However, the 10 pounds was lost the first 6 days and now I seem stuck. Is this normal? I haven't started walking yet because my stomach is still swollen and I'm still on the weak side. What else can I do? I truly want to be one of the success stories!!

reverie 49 Posted March 1, 2011 From a similar thread... 1. The first 6 weeks are for healing. You cannot expect to lose weight for the next 6 weeks, and if you do count yourself lucky. Stay off the scale.< /strong> 2. The scale isn't your only measure of success. Take your body measurements. Are you feeling better about yourself? Those all count as well.
