is it just me or does the lapband tightening mean weightloss?

I have an appointment to get my band loosened tomorrow. I can't really eat solids and I started calculating my calories and I am eating about 600-800 a day. However, I am not losing weight. I am starting to think that my body reacts to the band being tightened as I have lost 10 pounds or so (even if I could still eat quite a bit) after every tightening. Is this possible? Just curious. I have been exercising and doing everything else "right" but haven't lost in 1 1/2 weeks.
