It looks like you have lost a little. If you just started exercising, you muscles can retain water (they get little tears in muscle fibers and retain water to help them heal). It can show on the scale as no loss, small loss or a temporary gain. It could be the fact that you don't have a lot to lose so you may lose more slowly. Not sure what diet you are doing, but sometimes "what" we eat can be as important as "how much". Are you getting enough lean protein, dairy, fruits and veggies? Are you eating too many processed foods that contain a lot of sodium? Are you drinking enough water to flush out sodium and stay hydrated? Are you measuring your self to see inches/fat loss? Basically, you need to keep changing things up till you find what works for you.

The best thing to do when dieting it have breakfast. oatmeal, cereal, fruit, etc This has happened to me before. Gone for a couple of weeks with no weight loss and then on the third week I will lose 2-3 lbs. You just have to stick with it and don't give up.

Don't get to frusturated I know it can be so hard but like some previously said definately make sure you get breakfast everyday, Also sometimes it's what you eat, try to keep as many bad carbs out of your diet as possible. That's what works best for me.
