Strength Training Problem

I notice that on certain exercises....ie, single leg squat and standard bicep curl....the left side of my body is reverting. I am actually doing one less rep on these to exercises than the last time I did them. This is not the first time this has happened.
I landed up just say, WHATEVER, and didn't even attempt the breakdown(extreme moves, I am doing ChaLean Extreme) on those 2 exercises.
What could be the cause. I am eating 1900 calories per day, so I know I am not under eating.
I am getting very frustrated. I was feeling really proud of myself for a few weeks and that feeling is waning.

Try switching to max-weight to failure for a month,
Start off with a weight that is the MOST you can lift for 3-4 reps. Then decrease the weight slightly, and do as many as you can until failure. Repeat that 2 more times (for a total of 4 sets)0
