Stalled already? Or do I just need patience?

I'm not very patient, but I wonder if this is normal. The first two weeks after surgery I lost 13 pounds, it's another 2 weeks since then (tomorrow) and I have not lost anything. I haven't gained, but I'm stuck in one place.
typical day:
breakfast: protein shake
mid morn: 1/2 banana
lunch: 1/2 c chili or a hard boiled egg w/ 1/2 C cottage cheese
no afternoon snack usually, but sometimes a Kashi bar
dinner: 3 oz fish or chili/ soft boiled veggie
eve snack: sf pudding cup

Gym almost every other day is still very slow as I am quick to get tired.
Am I doing something wrong?

Nope you are doing nothing wrong.  Remember what your doctor said.  One to Two pounds a WEEK.  You lost 13 in two weeks.  Your body just said "OH MY GOD...I NEED TO HANG ON TO SOME OF THIS FAT....WHAT IS SHE DOING TO ME!!!".  Seriously, you are doing just fine.  Your body will do this occasionally, regulating itself.  You have done phenominal so keep up the good work, and relax.  (See this is why I don't weigh myself every day

You're doing everything right.  I remember the same thing happening to me.  Eventually you will get back to losing.  Do not get discouraged!
