I learned when I started entering my food diary onto thedailyplate.com that I needed to up my food intake a little bit. If it's too low, your body can't process things right and goes into starvation mode (and is probably the reason you're not losing like you think you should be now). Your body's holding onto every calorie with a death grip. Up your calorie intake gradually (not the whole difference in one day), so your body can adjust and your metabolism can reset itself.

This is an easy 'fix', thankfully!
