unfortunately, my banding is to take place on friday so i cant respond to the weight loss issuse but i did want to respond to encourage you. Your body has been through alot in the past weeks. Dont be down and out on yourself because of the 1 pound loss remember you're still swollen from not only the banding but your previous procedure as well just wait and see once that fluid run out of your body you'll be pleased with the minor results. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP!
