Why am I not loosing weight?

So, a couple weeks ago I joined a Lacrosse team. We run at least 2 miles a day and do tons of strength training and endurance exercises. I have changed my diet, eating all healthy foods and making sure I get enough protein and such. I have to loose about 25 lbs for the military, and I haven't lost any weight since I started Lacrosse. What could I be doing wrong? We practice 5-6 days a week for 2 hours so I have more than enough exercise. What should I change? Why am I not loosing anything? Thanks! (:

    Just because food is healthy doesn't necessarily mean that it will help you lose weight. I would say try counting calories, try to stay below 2000 calories a day with all that exercise you should lose the weight in no time, also don't forget with strength training you're building muscle, muscle weights more than fat, so if even if your not losing weight you probably are losing fat.
