6 weeks post tomorrow - Stall Question

So at 3 weeks I hit the stall. I lost a total of 29 lbs in that 3 weeks, but since the stall I've only lost 2 lbs. Iim not gaining anything. 'm really watching my carb intake and making sure everything I eat has lots of Protein. The only thing I struggle with is that I can eat everything. Pasta, bread, etc. not a lot mind you - but maybe 1/2 cup whole wheat pasta and 1/2 slice of Dave's Killer 21 Grain bread. I'm rarely going over 900 calories a day and getting plenty of walking and exercise every week.

My questions are:

Is this still the stall? Or could it be my calorie intake?

How long do stalls last? This will be 3 weeks now! I'm starting to get discouraged.

Is there anything I can do to kick off the weight loss again?

Thank you!!!!!!

Not the bread and pasta together at the same time - but in separate meals. Haha

Stalls just seem to happen.

I hit one at about three weeks that lasted two full weeks. I lost 15lbs the first three weeks. Eventually the stall just started moving again and at eight weeks, I'm 31lbs down.

I can eat anything too. Except beef still kind of bothers me. But I've had wine, chips, ice cream, Pasta, etc. obviously not all on the same day but I so indulge once in a while (that's the whole reason I got this surgery!).

I've been doing kickboxing twice a week and am adding bootcamp in this week too. Along with 30 minutes to 1 hour of walking a day. I've steadily lost 2-3lbs a week since that stall.

Just keep moving, keep your calories and carbs low and it'll eventually move again. I usually eat 1200 calories a day.
