ok, i know that i haven't been banded a long time but im a nervous nelly. I was banded like a week and a half ago and have lost about 2 lbs total. I figured being on the Clear Liquids diet for the week alone would have had me lose more than that! Is this normal? Did you guys lose very little weight in the beginning too? Is it because I haven't had a fill yet? thanks!
