The less you have to lose, the slower it goes. Be patient. Besides, you may be losing inches, not weight, it ' s normal. Did you try to measure yourself? Try on some too - tight clothes, it should give you the idea.
Are you drinking all the required water?

I ' m with bluehex. Whatever you do, don ' t increase carbs right now.
However, you should intensify your exercise, even temporarily. Also, try eating different foods than usual. Time to change things up. Add some spices, a variety of low carb veggies, maybe some kinds of fish you haven ' t eaten before.
