weight loss stopped

Options
Hiya,

I am after ideas to boost or rethink my weight loss to give it a kick start. I have lost 4 stone in the last 18 months, so I know how to loose weigh.
The last month I have not lost weight, in fact I have put 2lb on. I am having 1280, as recommended through MFP, I am religious about measuring and recording my food intake and any exercise. Any exercise I do get I eat the calories to feed my body. I have had a spine op last month, but I lowered my activity level to sedentary to compensate. I drink plenty of water. I am constipated due to medication. I take lactulose for this but even when I go there is no weight change. I am currently 12 stone 2 1/2. I am 5ft 3in, age 41.
Thank you for any advise.

    If you're not doing any exercise that could be too many cals. Take another 100 off and see if things get moving.

    Hi
    thank you, I am concerned about going too low though ans putting my body in starvation mode. I am exercising, just not as much as normal, gentle walks each day.
