I hear ya! I'm no those last 20 pounds myself and mine has been STUBBORN. Now I'm kicking it back into gear and losing about 1/3 lb/day. I really had to experiment with my calorie intake and learned that I needed to be eating MORE calories because my body was refusing to lose when I was under 800 calories. Now I'm around 1100/day and that seems to be the magic number. Still small portions, lots of protein, lots of water and some exercise.
