Well, a couple of things - although admittedly I am new myself. Are you counting your carbs using fitday? Are you drinking all your water?
If the answer to both are yes, you could still be losing weight but holding water - some people's bodies do that. Then one day, suddenly - whoosh! - they lose a whole bunch.
I defnitely don't recommend cutting your calories unless they were up around 3000 or something.
The big things to watch are - count your carbs, eat enough calories so that your body doesn't shut your metabolism down, add exercise, drink your water, watch the frankenfoods (anything made in a lab!)
Also for some people, dairy and nuts can slow the weight loss down.
Hang in there and don't let that scale get you to quit!!
