Am 4 months postop & have 3 to 5 days twice a month with no weight loss. Why is this?

I am frustrated & confused! I am 4 months post op &, although I have lost 85 pounds so far (hurray!), I find that twice every month I have anywhere from 3 to 5 days where I lose absolutely nothing!!! I believe I am doing everything right - proper diet/protein intake, drink lots of water, exercise at least 6 days a week (& I am perimenopausal so monthly bloat isn't much of an issue these days!) - so why are these mini plateaus happening to me? Is this normal? Is there anyway to change this situation? I would so appreciate hearing from anyone who suffers from this "periodic plateau problem"!
