    Are you accurately tracking your foods? Are you weighing foods? Are you tracking little things like coffee creamer, Splenda (Yes, it has 4 calories per pack), etc.?

    are you eating enough for your activity level? Cutting out processed foods and drinking enough water?

    Try this calculator to look at their recommendation for you calories, fat, carbs, and protein http://iifym.com/iifym-calculator/

    How are you stalled? What are you currently doing? Have you recently added in exercise where before you were only creating a calorie deficit? Are you tape measuring your body along with weighing yourself so you can see if you are still losing inches even when the scale doesn't change? Are you getting a good balance of fat, carbs, and protein every day?

    Maybe it is time to reset your calculations.

    Oatmeal is great but too much is not good. It has calories if you eat too much.

    Are you tracking all your food on MFP? What is your target calories a day?

    Why are you only eating oatmeal and so few calories? I'd suggest setting your calories to a more reasonable amount. Get some variety in your diet - you're probably lacking in a lot of essential nutrients if you only eat oatmeal. Get a food scale - weigh all solids. Get some measuring cups and use them for liquids. Log everything you put in your mouth.
