Not losing weight!!

Weight loss is not linear, you won't lose weight every week. Some you'll lose, some you'll stay the same, some you'll gain. It's perfectly normal to stall for a week or two. Just keep at it!

so I've been back on my diet for 2 weeks. The first week I lost 3lb. This week nothing despite sticking to my deficit and am a regular dancer and gym 3times a week.
And yes I am lowering my cals from 2200 to 1200 and all healthy clean eating.
Normally I drop easily but now I've come to a halt and it can't be a plateau as I've just started!
Please help!

'healthy clean eating' is an overly vague term, leave the meaningless buzz words out and you'll save yourself a lot of hassle on here. If your diary isn't open to public viewing, do that for advice from others. The usual reason for this is that people are eating more than they think, usually because they've not been weighing food but rather just using generic entries. BUT...you've lost 3 lbs in two weeks - you're doing really well here. If you lost that in six weeks I'd say you're doing really well. Track monthly trends, if every month you're down 2 lbs from where you were a month ago, you've got it right. Even if that means you lost 10 lbs and then put on 8 lbs, it's a loss overall. I don't think you need to worry here.

Give it time and keep at it. I lost 3 lbs last week , nothing the week before and nothing this week despite no changes to my diet/lifestyle. I have however lost quite a bit over the course of the past 18 months or so. Don't let this get you down, it's perfectly normal and it's the bigger picture that counts. Good luck.

loosing 3 lbs in one week is a large loss! be happy and patient! It can also be water weight, salt retention, gaining muscle.. lots effect the number on the scale.
