You're not doing anything wrong. Now is the time for your body to be healing. Many of us don't start experiencing weight loss until we start getting fills. So for now, just follow your doctor's directions on what you're supposed to be eating, and be patient. Hang in there.

Ditto, you are healing and should be taking it easy. Don't worry about the weight loss until you start eating real food. Then you need to apply the band rules with healthy eating and exercise rules and you should lose weight.

Be careful with that mind set. you might even gain some weight once you start eating solid food again or before you get filled. just really depends on the person. You are doing great, it is just the start of your journey. Remember this surgery can take much longer for you to lose the weight. Not sure what you have to lose total.

Good luck

Don’t get frustrated. Loosing weight is not an overnight phenomenon; it takes months, even years, to loose that added weight. Staying with the nutritional diet and exercise program during these critical periods is essential if you want to continue to lose weight in the long run.:thumbup:

Agreed with above. This is your new life, a new way of living. Relax, take time to heal. Don't be so hard on yourself. I am 3 months post op, and work out everyday, and eat well and there are still weeks I don't loose. Honestly, I don't care, I am focused on the big picture. So take care of yourself, and don't worry:)

I lost 16 pounds pre-op 8 the week after the surgery and then nothing for 9 days. Then it started back, I didn't do anything different. Your body just adjusts. Keep doing what you are doing and it will start coming off again. I just hit 30 today. Good luck
