Your too low on your calories. I think your putting your body into starvation mode. You need no less than 1500 calories.
The key is: Diet Diet Diet, then exercise:
You need to eat 5-6 small meals a day. Eat some protein with each meal! Cut out all refined sugar!!! Also add more fiber. The fiber and protein will fill you up, helping you to cut down on your unhealthy eating. Also by eating more than 3 meals spread out through the day you will kick your metabolism in high gear. Here is a general meal for a day:
Breakfast: 2 poached eggs
whole wheat toast
1/2 cup fruit
Snack: Cottage Cheese with veggie
Lunch: Turkey, lettuce, tomato, whole wheat bread sandwich
1/2 cup fruit
Snack: Protein Shake
Dinner: Turkey Burger ( no bun )
Side of brown rice
Side of Broc.
Then exercise regularly 4-5 days a week. Do both cardio and lifting. But on days that you do both. Do lifting before your cardio and you will maximize your fat burn. Cardio can be a sport: basketball, soccer, football, anything with losts of movement. Golf is a no no.
So Example :
Monday – 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio
Tuesday – 1 hour lifting
Wednesday – Rest
Thrusday – 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio
Friday – 1 hour lifting
Saturday – Rest
Sunday – 30 mins lifting then 1 hr cardio

maybe you are gaining a lot of muscle in your legs from power walking, muscle ways more than fat, and since you see yourself in the mirror everday you can’t tell if you look slimmer. also it sounds like you know what you’re doing with your diet, maybe try eating a few more calories. i didn’t hear you say anything about fruits and vedgetables, they are essential for weight loss, as well as dietary fiber (32grams a day). seriously those two things are ESSENTIAL for healthy weight loss.

The only problem i can see is your training. I think you should increase the intensity of your training. Power walking isn’t enough to lose weight, start running is the answer.You said that you’r feeling good as you are exercising so i don’t think you’ll have any problems in running. You don’t need a gym to lose weight as i the weights wouldn’t help you lose weight and it’s much better to run in the park than in a steamy gym. But the thing is you should push yourself hard. It’s al about pushing yourself as hard as you can and increase the distance you run every 2 weeks for example so you can see how much you’ve progressed. You should always try to run more because the body adapts to a certain level of intensity and you wouldn’t see any improvements in your weight. Losing weight isn’t easy but if you start running and you are increasing the distance you run or the speed you’ll see that you’ll lose weight. You have to have the guts to push yourself as hard as you can because it’s all worth it. When you finish running you should be sweating, breathing deeply, your cheeks should be red girl Hope i helped. Good Luck

This beats me. Are you taking weight measurements at the same time of the day? Because weight can fluctuate between different times of the day.
Try carb tapering. Eat a heaviest meal for breakfast with most of your daily aloowance of carbs. Reduce carbs progressively through the day and have no carbs for dinner. Try to eat 5-6 smaller meals instead of 3 big ones.
You can also up the intensity of your exercise. Slowly increase the pace of your walk and finally start jogging. Google for Couch to 5K programs on the net.
Also consider adding resistance exercises to your regimen. Simple body weight exercises like free weight squats and push ups are sufficient in the beginning. You can get a few dumbells and start working with them when you are comfortable.
