but my weight loss has only been about 8-9 lbs in the month of dieting

The above posters are right ... a weight loss of 8-9 pounds/month may seem slow but it's actually a good amount lost! We didn't put weight on overnight and we shouldn't try to take it off overnight either.
Studies show that folks who have lost weight quickly have a harder time keeping it off than those who have lost slowly. So, don't give up! You seem to be doing so much right with tracking calories and getting exercise!!
Like you, I get hungry in the evenings so I eat light for breakfast and lunch and save the most calories for dinner and an after dinner snack.
Anyway, welcome to 3FC! Find a forum or two you like and keep on posting!
