    Need more information.

    Are you at a plateau? How long have you been trying to lose more weight?

    are you just not hungry?

    there's no need to force yourself to eat.

    Well doing research into the right kind of foods is important I think. I firmly believe it isnt just all about the calories. Keeping an eye on carbs, sodium, dietary fibers etc is also so important! I had no idea how much lack of potassium or too much fiber can effect you until I started paying attention to EVERYTHING.

    Are you taking a rest day in between workouts ? Are you getting at least eight hours of sleep a night ? My trainer made sure I had a cheat meal once a week. I did no carbs after 7pm and changed my workout. It really kicked started my weight loss again. Just throwing a few ideas out there for you. Hope they help
