You are likely not doing anything wrong. You haven't put your stats on your profile: height, surgery day weight - these are helpful to other members to give an appropriate response.

For your start weight I think 9lb is great, you had a lowish start weight and your losses are not going be as high as people who weigh a lot more.

weight loss from revisions is usually not nearly as fast as it is with virgin surgeries. Also, if your BMI is comparatively low, that would mean a slower weight loss rate, too.

also, if you haven't lost in a week, you may be in a stall. Most people have their first stall during the first 4-6 weeks after surgery.

all that said, as long as your weight is gradually going down (even if you stall now and then, which you will...), you're good.
