I don't know that I have such good advice, but I can empathize!  I can exercise alllll day long and never lose weight - I don't gain any with exercise but to lose weight I have to cut calories.  The only thing that works for me is to cut calories, and maybe you need to aim for another 100 less or so.  I'm so sorry - I know from experience that it sucks!

Have any room in the group for another?  I'm 27 (almost 28 ), with a new baby (my 2nd), and 40 pounds to lose (according to this site, anyway, I'd be happy with losing 27 pounds).   This is my first week on this website, so I haven't lost any - but I am optimistic, and could use some people to talk to.

I am good at working out - don't mind it at all - but I have NEVER been able to lose weight by working out.  I don't gain weight while working out, but have to diet also if I want to lose anything.  I am a social eater, and I spend way too much time during my day deciding what to eat - can anyone relate to that?  You eat breakfast and you are already day dreaming about lunch.  It's a habit I'd love to break.
