Proper diet and exercise won't cause weight loss unless you are in caloric deficit. Log your food accurately and lower your daily calorie target if you are not losing weight. 4-lb daily fluctuations are normal. You can use a weight trend app like Libra to help see your weight trend through the daily noise. Check out the most helpful posts in the weight loss section.

Get a food scale. Weigh and log all your food. No skipping, cheating or forgetting. Hit your calorie target.
