Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon and (depending on your definition of country) Palestine have all lost territory to Israel.
Jordan: Admittedly all of the taken Jordanian territory was itself territory taken from the British Mandate of Palestine (and not part of the land granted to Hashemite Kings by the British).
Egypt: The Egyptian territory taken in the Sinai has been subsequently returned to Egypt on two different occasions (1956-1956, 1967-1982).
Syria: Syria has lost the eastern bank of the Sea of Galilee (part of the British Mandate of Palestine) and the Golan Heights (part of the French Mandate of Syria) to Israel and these territories have not been returned. Officially (according to the UN), the Shebaa Farms in the Golan Heights is Lebanese territory (controlled by Israel) but the Lebanese government considers that territory to be Syrian.
Palestine: Israel overran Gaza and the West Bank in 1967 and retained them as Occupied Territories. In 1993, Israel devolved parts of the Gaza Strip and West Bank to the Palestinian Authority and in 2005 ceded the remainder of the Gaza Strip to that government. The West Bank has remained a smattering of Palestinian and Israeli military control while Gaza is under complete Palestinian control (currently exercised by Hamas).
Lebanon: Southern Lebanon (south of the Litani River) was occupied by Israeli forces from 1982-2000, but was never considered to have become Israeli territory by the Lebanese or the Israelis the way that the other territories have been considered.
