Up your calories and make your cardio more intense, but less frequent. I feel your pain, I just broke a 5 week plateau! Don't forget LOTS of water!0

You need to confuse your body. Drink TONS of water, & keep exercising... BUT vary your caloric intake every day:
Day 1 - 1800
Day 2 - 1400
Day 3 - 1200
Day 4 - 1600
Day 5 - 1300
Day 6 - 1700
Day 7 - 1200
By then, you should see *some* movement on the scale. Your body could be convinced you're starting to starve yourself. You should FEED it... then starve it then FEED it. Etc. Etc. The best exercise routine to make this work out is about 45-60min cardio plus 30min strength training per day.
I've done this ... I lost 2lbs that week. Good luck!0 -
I'm stuck there, too! I came from 215 to 187 within 20 days of giving birth (5 months ago), and I can't get down past 182 to save my life! I actually just reazlied that I am not eating enough... I was getting a really great satisfaction from having 7hundred something calories left before excerize at the end of the day but I honestly think my body was holding onto everything it got because I wasn't getting enough calories. I've had to make a real effort to actually eat at least 1200 calories (my max is 1350), but since I have been doing that and drinking plenty of water, I've noticed a difference.
My wedding is 11-11-11 so I have a little more time than you but I also want to drop another 30 pounds. So you'll have NO problem meeting your goal. Just keep up the cardio, eat ENOUGH to give your body what it needs, and drink plenty of water. You aren't alone!
Best of luck and congratulations on your wedding!!!!
