    So to confirm.
    Were you eating more or less than the "Correct Quantity"
    Going to make a big difference.

    That's the key question.  I read it that the OP could not physically eat as much as the plan said they should because of the restrictive effect of the gastric(?) band.  Can't see how eating less than they should would be a problem - except perhaps to demonstrate the eating plan was defective from the outset.
    Gastric bands require surgery. I worked with someone that had one fitted. She could not even manage a packet of crisps for weeks. A couple of mouthfuls was the best of any foods she could manage. Weight just dropped off her. Finished up having to have further surgery to remove the excess skin.

    From the sounds of it, the OP did not have any surgery.

    hi
    Yes i ate more or less what was given on the plan 
    So is that more food or less food?

    Quantity is what the question is about....
