But what else would you eat during the day? And when?
Try not to oversimplify the actions of what is a complex system, the human body. You will likely gain some weight, but you should ultimately lose fat if you balance everything properly. You could also add one or two more cardio sessions per week, if you can. Or, perhaps, increase the time of each session from 30 minutes to 45 minutes or an hour.
Depending on the way you're built, you might never be (or never should be) below a certain weight. This is why weight might not be the best progress indicator. A fitness trainer will help you measure your body fat, and you can focus on that.
Exercise isn't very rewarding if you don't eat properly. You can't burn fat very efficiently if your body is malnourished. It could even be overstressed, making losing the fat even more of a challenge. Regardless of anything, you should be eating no fewer than 1,500 calories a day, or you might risk health problems down the road. It is difficult to get the proper balance of vitamins and minerals if you aren't eating the right variety and amount of food.
The body is an intricate system of parts; you need to find out how it works. This is where professionals could help you.

Exercise needs the proper fuel. Oatmeal and exercise are best friends.
By the way, by oatmeal, I mean the real kind. Not the instant maple sugar, apple cinnamon kind with tons of sugar.
