    I am having the same problem. I did see significant weight loss to begin with then it has just stopped. I have not lost anything in almost 2 weeks. I am eating strick 1200 calories and working out almost 5-6 days of week 30+ intense minutes. I am going to try eating more calories. I am hoping that helps.

    One other thing you might try is zig-zagging your calories. I'm also 5'2" and mfp tells me 1200 calories to lose 2 lbs per week. I followed another thread here regarding zig-zagging (just search for zigzag). Now I try to eat 1200 (net) Sun, Mon, Tues... 1750 Wed...1200 Thurs, Fri... 1750 Sat. I weigh in on Mondays. I've been averaging a litle over 1 lb loss per week. I don't always get 1750 on Wed and Sat (who knew it would be hard to reach 1750 calories) - 1750 is what mfp says I need to maintain my current weight. I weigh about 8 lbs more than you right now, so your maintenance level might be a little less. It's worth a try!
