Please don't get discouraged. I had the same thing happen. I was about 6 weeks postop and down 25 lbs from my pre milk/ presurgery diet. I was embarrassed to tell my family and friends that I was frustrated because I had already lost some weight. I held that weight for over a week and ever since working out 3-4 days a week and following the diet I have been steady with 2-3 lbs a week. It happens differently for everyone. Eat your protein first! And exercise...this is our new life. Keep us posted.

I don't know if you like italian...but I did lowfat ricotta with some spaghetti sauce. It tasted so good. Also mashed bananas are yummy. Stay strong, it does get better. I have my 6 week follow up today and hopefully I get cleared to try new things.
