4 Weeks Post Op Weight/Diet

I am 4 1/2 weeks post op from Lap RNY. At 3 1/2 weeks, I had lost 39 pounds. I weighed today (4 1/2 weeks) and I gained a pound from last week. I am eating good foods and have not touched any sweets or junk food. My typical daily diet is: breakfast - Carnation No Sugar Added Instant Breakfast with a cup of 1% milk, snack - 1/4 protein bar (10g protein in 1/4), lunch - tuna fish with 2 crackers or 1/2 a fat free hot dog, snack - 1 string cheese, dinner - 4 or 5 bites of chicken and broccoli or pasta or non-fried fish sticks (depending on what my husband wants). I get in nearly all my water every day. Why did I gain weight? Am I eating the normal amount for 1 month post-op? Also, how much fat and carbs is too much at a meal? You feedback is greatly appreciated!
