I'm convinced my RNY is broken :(
Hang in there and cut yourself some slack. Stalls happen you have lost a great deal of weight in a short amount of time. This is a tool not a magic bullet.
A 2 pound gain is impossible overnight, unless you consumed over 7000 calories the day before, so it must be water weight.
Weight fluctuates daily, so try not to focus totally on the scale, make sure you are tracking inches. During some of my stalls, I would lose inches and not weight.
Keep sticking to your plan and take a deep breath, stress hinders weight loss.
Goals are great, but sometimes we need to be flexible, you are doing great. Glad you came and spoke up instead of having this drive you crazy!
Sending you some big hugs!

Everyone is different. You can't determine how much you will lose by when. However, you can set a goal to get 100g of protein, 100oz of fluid, work out x times a week. See where I'm going? Set goals that you have control over.
My next point is this, this is for the rest of your life. It isn't like you are going to get to goal then eat anything you want. You are going to get to goal and keep going. So if you get to goal in 6 months or a year or 2 yrs, it doesn't matter. You just keep going.
So stop the pity party and keep on keeping on. You will get there when your body is ready to get there. In the meanwhile, up your protein and eat 5 x a day. Hide the scale if you need to.

Try only weighing on Sunday. There is a Sunday weigh in post on LW that I always post on. No weight during the week is "REAL" until Sunday lol
