    You look and sound as if you are near your goal weight. It gets harder the closer you are to it unfortunately. Slow and steady is the answer.... I'm 5'2" and am 61kgs, down from 70kgs. I was down to 55kgs but and slowly put it back on too. I tend to look at calorie intake as opposed to carbs/protein/fat content. Good luck.

    Your rate of loss is too aggressive for your goal

    you were given the 1200 calorie goal because that is where MFP bottoms out, in order to actually lose 2lbs a week I am guessing you would need to eat well below that (don't do that though, thats torture!)
