Getting hungry at the same times each day

Fluctuating Measurements...
I have been tracking my measurements for a few months. I noticed something strange that I don't quite understand.

Can I get your opinion?...
I really just want to know if I'm eating enough. I'm 5'2, 218lbs, and I walk 2-3 miles 4 days a week, usually a 12 minute mile or a 15 minute mile depending on how I feel. But after a pretty good loss I am at a standstill, so I'm hoping someone will look at my diary and tell me if I am eating enough or too much. Thank you!…
