Is this all that I'm going to lose?

Not to sound ungreatful but I am about 1 & 1/2 months post-op RNY & have only lost about 35 LBS or so!!! Is this normal??? What the heck is going on? What am I doing wrong or for that matter what should I be doing right? I know 30 LBS is 35 LBS but I've seen people at this stage losing up to 60 LBS. Now, I know everyone is different but don't you think that is a little slow? I started out at around 302, which is no lightweight. I know people with more weight tend to lose more in the beginning. Why is this not happening to me? The first month is when I lost about 30 lbs. then all of a sudden this month I've only lost about 5 LBS. or so. Am I on some wicked plateau or something? What can I do specifically to make the weight come off?
