Why am I at a plateau

I am only ten days post op. I lost 13 pounds in the first 4 days. I lost an additional 3 pounds the last 2 days for a total of 16 pounds. That seems very sporadic and I wonder if this is normal. I thought the first 13 pounds was awfully fast but I didn't expect to stay at the same weight for 3 days now. I'm really confused on the weight loss process. As per my doctors instructions am at the soft mushy food stage. I'm eating mostly creamed soups and cottage cheese. I'm drinking lots of water too. I have a hard time with protein shakes because they sit so heavy on my stomach and I was feeling uncomfortable so I went back to the liquid for a day and now back to the cream soups and cottage cheese. Any ideas?
