Q: after losing 98lbs, i started exercising and now I can't lose any more

I started out weighing 340lbs, I have lost 98lbs. This has been over the last 9 months by eating 1200-1300 calories a day.  I started walking 5 miles a day three months ago and  I all but stopped losing weight. I have lost maybe 15lbs in 3 months. Why is this? I thought when I increased my activity I would keep losing. I am I eating enough calories? I would like to lose about 50lbs more.
