If you are logging all your food, you are not eating enough. If you are not, try logging your foods and take a good look after a couple weeks.  

I just looked at calories, nothing else.  

I hope your calories are not that low every day! I think you may be like a lot of people who track breakfast and lunch, then get so busy and do not always track the dinner. I always write down everything I eat so I can fill in my food log when I get to the computer. A couple of times a month I don't fill in my dinner until after breakfast the next day. :blush: 

I am not logging any food. Since I won't be logging in food the rest of my life, I eat specific meals and know what the calorie count is with each meal. I am between 1600-1800 calories daily. I have been pretty consistent with this.  

Except for last night, which was a planned thing, I am doing pretty well at knowing the calorie intake based on past history. I can't see myself counting calories on everything I eat for the rest of my life but I do think I can train myself and know the approximate calories of the regular foods I eat and be within a couple of hundred calories of the actual count. I need this whole thing to be a lifestyle change and this needs to be part of it.  

I hear ya with your original post. I feel like I am at a weird phase where i will loose nothing (or even gain a pound or two) then all of a sudden Im back to normal or a smidge less. I noticed this since I increased the number of days I am exercising (4-5). I hear there are several things that can cause this kinda strange bouncing: bloat from foods such as salty things carbs etc. or sometimes when you increase workout/intensity, your muscles swell and can cause the number on your scale to increase. Best way to judge is to get a body tape measure and see how your clothing fits. Good LUck!
