I see you have six pounds to go- set your goal to .5 pound per week. Not sure if 1200 is too little- are you eating back exercise calories? I have never seen any men on that few of calories so I'm not sure how you are not losing weight. Congratulations on your loss so far.

No I don't eat my exercise carries never have I believe is counterproductive for me anyway Thank you though

same problem here, many days Im way under my 1300 limit, but after the first 9 lbs it seems to have stopped. Decided to increase my elliptical but slow up the speed a bit and see if a longer slower workout helps

are you using a food scale?

Bravo! Cos a loose 1200 with 66lbs to lose is different to the results you can expect with a loose 1200 and only 6lbs to lose.

Yes I use food scales no I have no cheat days no I don't cheat meals

It sounds like with you working out 1200 is too low. Up your calorie intake. You need more food to fuel the muscle you're building.
