In addition to some of the comments, keep going! I'm not sure how long you've been on this regime for, but be assured that you body is probably in a state of confusion (and this is a good stage at this point). This is exactly where a lot of my clients have fallen prey to the "transition" period.
Your body, if you continue to crack on with what you have been doing, will adapt to this regime, and hopefully burn more fat as fuel, and become more efficient at preserving muscle tissue. For some of us, it happens very quickly (generally those of athletic statures) for others it kicks in a little later.
Your body is basically being a little stubborn fucker - and is saying "I'm not sure what the fuck is going on here, but i'm gonna hold onto this fuel for a little while longer"
If you continue with your regime, I would hope your body thinks... "Hey, I like this shit. I'm gonna burn more of this fat stuff so that i get better at it"
You have everything in equilibrium by the sound of it. Don't cut any more calories, but maybe just turn up the heat a fraction on the exercise.... if u can.
(I really hope that makes some sense. Sorry about the inner monologue thing.... works for some. Irritates the fuck out of others) :)
