I am completly ready to give up.

I had lap band on Dec 11th 2007. I have lost 40 pounds since my surgery and i am so frustrated that i just wanna give up. I know that 40 pounds gone is good but i had to fight for every one of thos pounds that I lost. For the first three months after surgery I was bad and didn't follow all the rules. I ate the wrong foods and ate too much of the wrong foods. I had very little restriction untill the end of May. But since the end of may I have completly changed my eating habits and I walk two miles every single day. (never miss a day of walking.) I lost 12 pounds before surgery and 28 in the past months. I can't beleive i have not lost anymore weight then this. I barely get to eat anything and i'm exercising daily. I drink water water water all day long and nothing is working. Has anyone else had this same problem? Am i the only person losing this slow. I know the band is just a tool but I am using my tool the right way and I feel like I'm failing.
