Hey there,
I would suggest sticking to a specific amount of calories so that you are better able to track how many your consuming. It sounds like your body may be used to your workout since you're doing the same thing everyday, try switching up your workouts, with a different form of cardio and some strength training. Any difference will help, and you always want to keep your body guessing!
Hope this helps!
First, I would like to say that giving yourself a name like "fatgirl" really makes me sad :( The first things you should do is realize that you are a beautful person no matter what you look like and not degrade yourself -- it will show in your results by setting yourself up for failure. Thinking positive is key!
Second, I would really like to recommend amping up your workouts - go that extra 10 minutes, push that extra weight. Calisthenics such as repeating sets of pushups, situps, squats are great workouts. Sarlaken is right that your body is probably used to the 20-30 min treadmill workouts -- try 10 min fast walk/run a mile fast as you can/5 min walk repeat and get that heartrate up!
Also, don't be discouraged by your weight -- go by how your clothing feels and how your body feels. As an example, I started working out regularly since February (min 4 times a week, 15+ miles, weights) and have not lost ONE pound. But, I've lost a total of 5 inches off my body. Muscle is your friend, it increases metabolism and makes you strong!
Also, I'm 5'8' and 155 so you're not doing too bad there lady ;)
