At the moment, I'm 5'8, 230 lb. I lost 17 lbs. in 2006 coming down from 247, but have remained at 230 ever since december last year. I'm absolutely desperate now to lose weight, and in this past year I've been exercising more consistently than I ever have and eating conscientiously, but I'm remaining within 230-232, no matter what I do it just won't budge. Especially in recent times, I'm on 1800 calories per day (taking 500 off of 2300, for the supposed 1lb per week lost), along with 30 mins minimum of cardio at least 4 times per week, but nothing's happening and just very recently I'm starting to become VERY frustrated. Something is missing here.
