Stalls happen.. You may need to change up your diet a little to get things moving. Up your protein and water intake for a couple days, also, if you can exercise because of a knee problem , you can still do some sitting exercises, I'd recommend finding some low impact exercises you can do. You've lost quite a bit, and your body is trying to 'catch up', be patient.

There are a whole lot of exercises you can do even with knee issues. I was in an immobilizer after a bad fall and then in leg braces, but worked with a Physical Therapist to develop upper body and and core exercises. So don't just say you cannot do any exercise. You can't run or do other things that require knees, but you really CAN exercise.
800 a day is more than I am eating at 7+ months out. I am normally around 700 at most. What does your nutritionist advise, calorie-wise? How much of your intake is protein based?

Please consult your surgeon & nutritionist for how to do it their way. Biggest regret? Not doing this 10 years ago! Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!

If you are right on target, then I guess I am confused by your initial question of are you eating too much. Sounds like per your practice, you are doing fine and you'll just need to wait this stall out if you are not wanting to change the caloric intake or exercise.
Good luck!
