Saving calories for the weekend?

Didn't lose any weight?
This is my third week logging on MFP. The first week I lost a little over two kilos, the next week 0.8 kilos and nothing this week. I ate well, didn't go over calories and exercised. Is this normal? Should I expect to lose weight consistently every week?
