I've been logging on MyFitnessPall over a month, I look over my nutrition before choose what I can eat in every meal I also do sports 5 days a week in addition I use the step counter Polar Flow to guaranty that on my rest day I do at least my step goal for the day. Even though I am dedicated person I don't loose weight, my goal is to loose only 5kg!

    Nutrition and exercise are important for good health but knowing precisely how many CALORIES you consume vs how many you burn, then eating at a deficit, is the answer to successful weight loss. This is acomplished by weighing and measuring everything you consume.

    Since you want to lose only 5kg, you must be a bit obsessive about measuring your food to get your correct calorie intake. See if your Polar Flow will sync to MFP then enable negative adjustments. It'll give you a more accurate estimate of your TDEE.

    Getting your step goal on your rest day is irrelevant. A rest day is designed for rest so your muscles can repair themselves from the daily wear & tear they endure. Eating and drinking fewer calories than you expend on rest days will ensure you stay in a calorie deficit and help you lose that stubborn 5kg.
