Don't get discouraged. Any effort forward is not going backward. Are you sure you are eating enough? Your body may think it is starving and holding on to the weight as a defense. Just keep working at it and I hope your body adjusts. I don't think I could do the no soda thing. I have to have the carbination. I drink the diet. Kudos on that to you. 

Hey there, why not keep a food log. Record what, when, and how much you are eating. Even the liquids. You ought to be consuming about 1200 calories a day. If not, as Citrue said, your body may be in starvation mode. Read the calorie information. Some of the stuff I was eating surprised me with how dense it was in calories. Anyway, food journal. It helps me when I get stuck.
