Just because you can eat anything doesn't mean you should, eat 1200 calories a day. Or you wont lose weight. PERIOD. The band isn't there to stop you from eating. You have to be accountable for what goes in your mouth. You can't complain about no weight loss if you aren't eating a proper diet.

Are you counting your calories, exercising, getting your Water in, etc? The weight isn't going to fall off like it did immediately post-op. Make sure your calories are in check, exercise, and see where the scale goes.

Sounds like you need a fill, but like everyone else said you have to watch your calories and what you put in your mouth, the band won't stop you, only you can.

I was having the same Problem, I Finally got some restriction, with fill # 3 total of 6 cc in 10 band. So hard to focus and stay positive when you are so discouraged! Get another fill ASAP

I agree that a fill would probably help, or at least get you one step closer to restriction. I also second the excersise advice. There are so many benefits, just one being weight loss. Start out slow and gradually increase your duration/intensity. Best wishes.
