What are the restrictions?

I was told no lifting more then 20 lbs for 3 weeks after banding....

You'll have to ask your doctor to see what your specific limits are.

I was told no more than 10 pounds for 4 weeks.

I was told no lifting over 20 lbs for 2 weeks

I was told no more then 10 lbs for up to 6 weeks!

I was told 10 lbs for 3 weeks and 20 lbs for an addition 3 weeks

id call and ask your doctor to be sure

as you can tell from the comments

the variations depends on the doctor.

You're going to get a wide range of answers for this question as you can see. I was told < 20 lb for 6 weeks, but my back doctor amended that to 10 lb
