Need Help busting through a plateau

Since July 13 I have weighed exactly the same with some days actually weighing half a pound more. I'm getting so discouraged!

I started my weight loss journey in March and have lost 63lbs since then. When I joined MFP I realized that I had to decrease my former 1500 cals a day down to about 1200 in order to continue a weight loss. On July 7 I started a concerted effort to exercise and have been faithfully walking 30-60 mins every day and eating my calories (or under).

But the scale won't move.

I still have about 65lbs more to reach my goal and can't bear to think I'm going to be stuck here much longer.

HELP!

    Give it time. You're body is getting to used to exercise just now. Don't be a slave to the scale! And start measuring yourself and I'm sure you'll see a difference :D
