    What are you doing to lose weight? What are you eating and how much? Do you exercise? We can't see anything... Hard to reply :)

    You say you've been eating clean but that doesn't matter. Have you been in a calorie deficit? Because that is what is going to produce weight loss.


    Opening your diary would make it easier to help you.

    Counting calories is what i find most efficient :)

    Sometimes it takes a while to find that "sweet spot" in terms of calorie deficiencies. I fluxuated from 1300-1700 before I found where I was comfortable (and not hungry). Try upping your calories slightly for 1-2 weeks to see where that puts you. If it doesn't work there, try lowering them slowly over the course of a couple of weeks. It's all about finding a balance.

    you're eating clean but the amount of food you're eating might be the problem, I would drop the calories down by 1 or 2 hundred and
    if your not doing so already start workingout! and remember to write down everything that goes in your mouth, keep going and you will see the results!

    I lived with a very overweight girl once who ate very healthily but cooked enough for a family of five and ate it ALL in one sitting!

    What you eat affects your your long-term health ... but portion size is the key to losing weight. Do you weigh your food? You might be surprised (I was!)
