Try increasing your daily calorie intake! I don't know your specifics, but it works for many of us. Give it a week or two to settle in and see how it effects you. Many lose weight, very few gain a small amount. I know it sounds like 'oh no! eating more will make me gain!' but just give it a shot - your body might imagine it is starving, and shut off the weight loss!0

Are you eating enough and getting you water amounts in? I find that when I don't get enough nutrition in, my loss stalls. I am 5' so we're aiming for the same goals.0

Same here lost by cutting cals bit when I did a body fat % I was surprised to see that it had stayed the same cuz nit only did I lose fat but lean muscle by going so low. Its a mental challenge to increase but its been working for me0

up it to 1250 cals....ur bosys more than likely in starvation mode. to eat only 1000 calories a day is terribly bad. ur body burns that much just from being alive a day...since you've upped to 1200, i think ur body MIGHT be scared of starving so its holding onto that weight still. Just up ur calories a LITTLE more and see what happens. I doubt ill gain weight. for ur size ill need to eat like 1600 calories to gain weight...0
