What am I doing wrong? Feel I am on track but scale is not moving.

For the last 3 weeks I have been bouncing between 182 and 179. I am 4.5 months post-op and have lost 80 lbs. I feel that I am getting in all of my protein. For breakfast I eat 1/4 cup of yogurt or 2 thin slices of deli meat. For lunch I eat a small salad with meat or a couple of slices off of a chicken breast with veggies. For dinner usually the same as lunch or what ever the family is having but usually a small portion of meat with veggies. I eat no starches - no bread,rice, pasta, potatoes. I eat no sweets at all, not even fruit. I get in 48 - 60 oz of water a day. I take a mulit-vitamin and iron. I walk for 20 minutes 3 times a week and lift weights 3 times per week. I feel that I am doing a good job of being on track but the scale is just stuck right now. I even accused my husband of doing something to the scale because I have have been losing a steady 5 lbs per week. Am I not getting enough food in or not exercising enough? Any suggestions would be so appreicated because I am so frusterated right now. Thank you.
