Just NOT losing pounds!

I have been faithfully logging for almost 6 weeks and exercising for at least an hour several times a week, and I've not lost a single pound. I am so frustrated. Has anyone else had this problem? I aim for 1200-1300 calories per day and eat back half my exercise calories. I feel like I'm doing things right, but I'm just not dropping the pounds.

    Do you weigh all your food?

    Have you had your hormone levels checked?

    I recommend "The Hormone Cure" by Dr. Sara Gotfried. I did an at home hormone check and was able to work with my acupuncturist to address the imbalances. Hope that helps.

    weigh/measure your food portions if you arent already
    how are you determining exercise calories
    if you werent on a diet what should you be eating calorie wise given your age, heigth weight and normal activity level (with out the added exercise)

    Hypothyroid? (Slower metabolism than usual)
    Losing fat weight but gaining water? (Too much sodium and not enough potassium?)
