      What is your question?

      Change something: move your macros around (less fat or less carbs, more protein, etc.), change your workout routine, change your workout timing (morning vs night), change what you eat when. All just examples but if it ain't working now...

      How long has it been since you lost weight? And can you open your diary?

      I log my food in, i do at least 6,000 steps a day, i do hard exercises like squats w weight, pushups, burpees, and when I don't i usually do 2 miles on treadmill.

      How many calories are you consuming per day? How are you calculating those calories (ie are you measuring & weighing everything?)

      Can you open your diary?

      Scanning bar codes for serving sizes is highly inaccurate and weighing with cups
      Do you use a food scale?

      and how long are you not losing weight?

      How long has it been since the scale moved? Depending on where you are in your cycle, you may be holding on to some water weight.

      If you have lost 8 pounds in the last two weeks then you are losing weight. It won't continue at that rate, and you shouldn't expect it to. Your weight will fluctuate from day to day, just keep at it.

      you lost 8 pounds in the last 2 weeks that is fantastic....
      And a lot
      Weight loss is not linear

      i lost over 90 pounds now....and the month April was crazy....8 pounds up 4 pounds off....3 pounds up 5 pounds off etc the whole month. Overal i lost in that month only 2 pounds....Now we go to May, nothing changed.
      Started off with the first two weeks 2 pounds, and from Last Monday to today i lost another 2 pound


      You have to be patient, as long as you burn more than you take calories in you will lose weight
      How much depends on how accurate your logging is ( so weighing ALL your food)
      And in how long nobody can tell you, fluctuations will play their part

      Aside from the scale not moving. If you are accurately weighing and measuring foods. THAT is not enough food. You are netting around 700-1000 calories a day.

      Of course if the scale isn't moving, you're perhaps eating more than you think.

      If this is accurate, then you need to eat more.
