Weight Loss not working

ANSWERED

I hve had my fitbit for a month now and I am using it along with diet to loose 20 lbs.  but I have kept gaining and loosing the same 5 lbs even though my daily calorie deficit has averaged 980 calories.

 

Anyone have any ideas?

 

Ok this an edit to my earlier post.  I have read and made an evaluation that there is truth in everyones input and thanks.   The reason for the post is that I was wondering how accurate the fitbit charge HR measurement is but since no one mentioned failure of accuracy in Fitbit,  I assume that everyone thinks the calories it says I am burning and the accuracy of Fitbit's scales are not the problem.  My weight has actually begun to come down now and the only adjustment I made is to drop the weights from my exercise routine.  

 

I think the fitbit band is spot on or at least under evaluates calories and I am back on track... Thanks!

Its a hard world. I don't know anybody who lived to 100 that was over weight. No matter what you do, unless you eat less than you burn you will not lose weight. 

There will always be a Death Star. Always a reason to go off. The thing to do is stay on the good side of the street and only eat healthy foods and try to excersise.
