I have not lost any weight in the past 6 weeks I am only 10 weeks post op!

I had RNY-LAP surgery on May 8, 2001. My starting weight was between 240-235lbs, and I am 5'2". Well the first 4 weeks went great. I dropped down to 203lbs. Today 7/2/01 I still weigh 203! My average day goes as follows: Breakfast: protein shake or 1 egg and a slice off bacon and 1/2 slice of toast. Lunch: Organic soups (the ones you add water to) Split pea, couscous and lentils, black beans. or 1-2 ozs Chicken and 1/8 cup veggies and 2 to 3 bites of white rice or a frozen meal about 2/3rds Dinner: 1-2 ozs Chicken and 1/8 cup veggies and 2 to 3 bites of white rice or noodles or 1/3 cup Black bean and turkey chili or a frozen meal about 2/3rds. Snack: 1/4 - 1/3 protein bar, protein shake, Glenny's soy chips or 1 oz sunflower seeds. I drink at least 48oz of water/crystle-lite daily (I am working up to more). I try to walk 3 times a week, for 20-30 minutes. Although my engery level is very low, and the next day I am usually tired from the previous days walk. At this rate, I may never get out of the Morbidly Obese catagory! I am greatful for the 35+ lbs that I did lose, but I am wondering why I have not lost any weight in the past 6 weeks, this early after the surgery!
