Can someone tell me if my weight loss is good?

I started out at 400 pounds 7 weeks ago. I am now down to 350. I know of a person that started at 415, and had surgery the same day as me. he is stuck at 355. we have both been stuck there for 2 weeks. We were both wondering if this is normal. I know 50 pounds lost is something to be proud of, but it seems like nothing I do is going to kick start the weight loss again. I know I shouldn't weigh myself everyday, otherwise I will just depress my self, but I want to know when this plateau will break. I know I have not gotten enough excercise, but it is hard when I work a full day, and am tired when I get home. I do feel fatigued lately. I am drinking protein powders, and watching what I eat, so I can try to get in the calories I need. I think I am getting a few too many Carbs, but in order to get the 800 calories it seems to be unavoidable. Any other suggestions?
