Annie1976 11 Posted January 21, 2013 I was banded 12-18 and I'm down 12. I am frustrated too but I am struggling with always wanting to eat. I am staying within1200 cals and figure slow and steady wins the race... 1 hopefulnurse reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m1aman 944 Posted January 21, 2013 Don't expect to lose weight until you get several fills (for most people). But you know what, if my insurance had covered the sleeve I believe I would have gone that route myself. But I have lost 80 pounds with the band and I am happy for myself!
