Any suggestions on speeding up the loss?

I am about 3 1/2 months post op. I was doing pretty well with weight loss for the first 2 months, but things have gotten really really slow. For the last month and a half, I have been lucky if I loose 2 lbs a week. I know I should be happy about every little lb, and I really am, but I just wonder if anyone has any other suggestions for me, 8-9 lbs a month just seems awfully slow. I am eating aobut 1000-1200 calories per day, drinking about 55-65 oz a day, getting my protein. I work all day, so my hours available for exercise are limited, but I do park as far away as I can. I do 3 classes at the pool a week, plus a little additional swimming. I bowl 1 night a week (not sure if that counts as exercise, but I figure any movement is good.),and occassionally get in some additional walking.
