Fear of losing the weightloss battle - author unknown   You won't lose the battle if you are willing to work with the band and do your part. But I can almost guarantee:   You will have plateaus when you first switch to solids until your body gets used to being fed instead of starved (most likely one-two weeks but could be three like mine.)   During many plateaus you will lose inches not pounds and then finally a larger loss.   Your loss in the first 30-40 days is a "never to be repeated"
