Did weight come off after weaning? Desperate & struggling at 10 weeks PP.

Hi everyone—I’m 10 weeks postpartum, 5’5”, and currently 165 lbs. I lost 15 lbs immediately after birth, but my weight has been completely stuck at 165 ever since.
Over the past week, I’ve been meticulously tracking my dietat ~1,800–1,900 calories and exercising, but the scale isn't moving. My mental health is deteriorating over this, and I feel desperate. On top of that, nursing has been a struggle for other reasons (I had a lumpectomy on my one breast, so I produce almost no milk on that side - which means I’m still triple feeding / combo feeding).
For those who experienced a total plateau while nursing: Did the weight finally come off once you stopped breastfeeding? I’m seriously considering weaning for the sake of my mental health and would love to hear your experiences
