Is it true the less weight you have to lose the longer it takes to lose it?

I am 7 weeks post-op and I have only lost 40 pounds. Is this normal? My pre-op weight was 230 and my goal weight is 120 so I only have 110 pounds to lose. Does that mean it will take me longer to lose weight than a person who has 200 or more pounds to lose? Please help, I am feeling very depressed because I feel as if I am not losing weight quick enough.
