Fed up.......

I don't blame you for being fed up! I'm wondering how you're measuring your body fat though. It seems strange that if your weight and measurements have stayed the same, your body fat has gone up. Are you measuring that with a scale? If so, they are notorious for being inaccurate, so I wouldn't worry about that.

My guess is that you may have lost a little fat, but you may be retaining water from the exercise (are your muscles sore?) and also from increasing the calories. An increase in food makes you retain water (the opposite of the big loss of water weight that many people have when they start dieting) and you also have a higher volume of food in your system. Inch loss may just not be noticeable yet. I don't always see an obvious inch-loss from one month to the next.

You must be really frustrated, but keep at it! I don't think you're doing anything wrong, it just might take a little more time to see the progress.

It looks to me like you're pretty small already and only have under 10lbs to lose? Could be that you happened to weigh yourself on an 'off day', which often happens to me - ie, you haven't had a bowel movement, you could be bloated, excess water. If you only have a smaller amount to lose, progress over 4 weeks is only going to show a small loss, so any of these things could cover up a potentially awesome difference on the scale.

Looking at your diary, it seems to me that you usually don't eat enough protein. Again, if you're smaller, you don't want to lose precious lean body mass, so if I were you, I'd make a conscious effort to try and eat more protein, especially after a workout. Switch up your diet in this manner and see if it makes any difference to your loss. Also, when I plateaued, the method that helped me was to only eat back up to half of my exercise calories. Could be that whatever method you use to track calorie burn is slightly off?

Hope you break this soon, don't give up! Something's gotta give eventually, especially if you are maintaining a deficit.

You're gaining in terms of strength, stamina, health. Don't forget that!

Don't give up. Maybe try cardio with jogging and giving yourself recovery time with walking. You will see progress, when you see that you are losing, then start insanity. You may be bulking up. That is what my sister did and she looks awesome. You will get there. Chin up. work in progress.

Don't worry! I was 17st4lb and was steadily dropping, I got to 15st2lb and was convinced I was still losing weight. I weighed myself about 4 days later and was 15st7lb(ish).

Just keep going, it's probably just your body adjusting.

Do you do any excersise, or is it all diet?

I'm not sure if you just aren't finishing days but I just went back in your diary about a week and there were 3 days where you were WAY under your daily limit. If you don't fuel your activity, especially while doing something intense like Insanity, your body will hold on to whatever resources it can. Try not to eat below your BMR and definitely not below 1200 (net).

If you have trouble with protein, how about bars or shakes? Or if you want to keep it more natural, how about nuts, nut butters, chicken, turkey, fish or cheese? When you do eat red meat, make sure it's cooked to your liking. I hear a lot of people saying they don't care for it but I have to wonder if it's the same as folks who say they don't like their veggies. Growing up, I only had overcooked steaks and burgers because we were paranoid about food poisining - and they were probably cheaper cuts with little fat (like london broil - blech) which are likely to be tough any way you cook them. Now I know I like a nicely marbled sirloin or even a rib eye if the budget allows and I love it cooked medium rare - just a little undercooked in the middle so it melts in your mouth...

Anyway, do some research on high protein foods you know you like or are willing to try and figure out what you can encorporate in your diet for better balance and muscle maintenance.
