    Logging everything is a great habit to better understand what you're eating, but it will only result in weight loss if it puts you in a calorie deficit.

    So . . . how long has it been since you've lost weight? What is your calorie goal? Are you confident you're logging accurately (avoiding bad database entries, weighing solid food, etc)?

    If you aren't losing weight with logging, you either aren't logging everything, you aren't logging accurately, your expectations are unrealistic, or you are eating at maintenance. Or a combination of these.

    Yes. I've spent days/weeks not loosing weight while accurately logging all my food. I'll echo @janejellyroll , how long has it been since you lost weight, are you watching the entries (they can be inaccurate as they are user added - check labels), are you weighing food, or just measuring (better than nothing but measuring is terribly inactive), all that fun stuff.
