Without knowing how and what you eat it would be hard to say or offer any assistance. It's possible you're not taking in enough calories so your body is holding on to what it does get (most common in people who are stalled with the band). It's also possible you're eating slider foods. Or eating like someone maintaining and not someone losing. It's hard to say without knowing more information. Hope you find your sweet spot soon!
