I noticed that. When I was in college, I ate a burger and fries every day and was averaging a scary 60 oz of coke daily! :/ I somehow dropped to my lowest weight ever when I was eating like this, but the past few years, the more I try to be healthy, the harder it is to get my body in the right place, especially since having two (almost three) kids.... 

doesn't work for me! but good for you! 

Good for you - I thought perhaps you were eating too few calories before and maybe your body was holding on! 

You have been getting consistent advice here from experienced dieters to eat a bit more and let your body let go of starvation mode. Try targeting 1000-1200 calories a day for a few weeks and see what that does for you. You will be better nourished and yet still in calorie deficit. Perhaps that will be a better weight loss strategy. 

Is the list of foods on your profile, you can or cannot eat? Is this list b/c of the medication or religious beliefs? I agree with Erica. Unless you are under 5 feet tall you should be eating over 1000 calories a day.  

I cannot eat them, it is because I take a medication in the MAOI class. And I'm 5'6" so yeah, it just seems to me that that is a lot of food.  

Have you tried the Fat Secret calculator for Recommended Daily Intake? That will give you a maintenance figure of calorie intake, then you can subtract 500-700 per day to get a good figure for weight loss. It's a helpful benchmark.
