You're eating almost entirely starch. You mention some raw veggies, but those aren't going to be very filling (you get more out of veggies when cooked). The MWL plan has you eating at least half your food as non-starchy veggies. Eat those FIRST and then, if still hungry, have some starchy food.
That said, you should be losing weight with that few calories (unless the portions are absurdly large). If you're not eating monstrous portions and you really are not using oil, "butters," etc., it might be worth getting a thyroid test. Usually I think that's a cop-out, but when I was your weight, I lost without trying, really, once back on the plan. It didn't get hard until I was 15 pounds from final weight.

Testimonial threadTrust me on this: One day you'll wake up and realize that it no longer feels like "being strict." It just feels GOOD.
