First On, First Off: And last on, last off. Congratulations! you have done a phenomenal job at including proper nutrition (not "dieting") and exercise into your lifestyle. That said, remember the axiom, the first place fat accumulates is the last place it is reduced; meaning, keep doing what you are doing and just change-up your workout schedule a bit to "confuse" your body, there are no shortcuts. It will happen.

Weight loss: Congratulations! when you plateau your weight you have to adjust to more exercise or fewer calories ingested.
