You've given yourself a year. This is not a sprint; it's more like a hike. You can't rush it, but it does require steady vigilance. Keep your eye on the trail, one foot in front of the other. Patience and stick-to-it-iveness is what wins this game. 

taking a quick look at your diet calendar and other than a few days below 1000 cals, you seems to be eating in an acceptable range for your current weight. Your activity log might be tripping you up though, as FS is generous with calories burned for activities like sitting, driving, and the like. I believe if you are using those numbers to calculate your deficit, you are getting a false sense of security. I figured this out after a few months on FS and now only track true cardio type activities that I spend 5 or more minutes doing... walking, running, elliptical, or other machine that is calculating cals burned from your heart rate, age and body weight. If you do that, you may find your deficit is not as big as you thought, and might even be a surplus on some days. Once I started tracking activity this way the FAT started coming off quite steadily and at a fairly predictable rate. It also made logging activity much easier... just sleep and real exercise. AS for resistance training, I only list that if I track my cal burn with a heart rate monitor watch during the workout. FS would say I burned 1000 cals or so while my watch said it was closer to 350. Good luck! 

Agree with Ckworksalot.  

That was exactly my issue as well. I stopped recording all activity since it way over calculated what I burned. 

So should I not record on here burning calorie wise or should I just do the true activities and leave the other out?  

I don't record here anymore, but if you are going to record here log only the true activities in.  

concur... just true activities... If I went pick one of the kids up from a practice, instead of sitting in my car and waiting, I would start to walk around the parking lot. Sometimes I would get 10 minutes, sometimes 50 minutes... all little pennies in the calorie deficit equation... they all add up. If you do nothing truly physical that day, at a minimum list your sleep. That will show you roughly how many calories you burn a day without exercise. Adjust your intake accordingly to achieve the desired deficit...
