Exercise is overrated as a contributing factor... its healthy and its great, but if you eat the same garbage whilst working out you might just get stronger, fitter and fatter all at the same time.
Starvation doesn't help either.
The best combination I've found is regular small gym sessions (1-2 hrs maybe every other day or so) coupled with clever dieting that forces ketosis (metabolism of fat). Atkins diet is the textbook example, but there are other, healthier options too... research it.
On the other hand, once I get down to about 36" i find it very difficult to lose any more.
If you are finding it exceptionally hard, do you have a medical problem? See a doctor and find out.
If you ever went through a period of forced starvation there is a chance that your body has adapted in ways that make it very difficult for you to lose weight... its not common but it does happen.

What seemed to work the best for me was not eating within 3 hours of going to bed, unless you truly need a snack during that time. So, if you go to bed at 10 p.m., you should not eat after 7 p.m. It might take a while to get used to, but I eventually stopped feeling hungry during those three hours before bedtime.
Also, take a realistic look at how much you are eating. If it seems like a lot, just eat less. This will probably take a while to get used to as well. You may need to relearn your body's signal that it is full, or get used to not feeling stuffed. Try to keep your life full and happy so that you don't notice the change.
Also, try to arrange so that all the grains you eat are whole grains. They will keep you fuller for longer.

Atkin's. A lot of people bash it, but I've lost a ton of weight on it. Plus, you can snack, and eat as much as you want.

6ft 38" isnt bad at all. My son is 6ft and 36" and he doesnt look fat. You can try a glass of grapefruit juice before bed and maybe walking if it really bothers you.

Hmmm, besides what other have said, it could be that you've reached what can be refered to as a (correct me if I'm wrong) "plateau". In this period, your weight will stay the same for a certain amount of time. If this is the case, continue with focusing on losing that weight and after some time, you'll reach your goal.

What kind of diet...?
See, the problem with dieting, is that most diets are about cutting out this or that, or counting calories.
Which is great, until we take into consideration most diets are done this way:
"My car takes 28 gallons. That's how much fuel it needs. Never put more than that in it."
Wonderful. So, I know how many gallons I should have. WHAT KIND OF FUEL? Because, you see, that's where these calorie counting things go wrong. The brain needs one kind of fuel, the muscles another, the digestive system, etc etc... All of these body parts require something different.
I hate to pimp out something, but... yeah. Gonna do it anyway. Most effective diet I've ever seen takes a different approach to diet. It's not about counting calories, or cutting out fat, or protein, or carbs... all essential to operating your body.
It's about BALANCING HORMONES. Because, you see, when your body is running correctly...? IT WORKS.
Look up the Perfect 10 Diet: http://www.perfect10diet.com/
I've done my research. I am convinced. Least you can do is check it out.

"Diets" don't work. You have to change your whole lifestyle, not your eating habits for like a month. I would recommend cutting processed foods, and eating a plant based diet. I lost 8 pounds in one month doing that, combined with using Sensa. If I weren't at school, I could stick with it, but I've still kept most of the weight off, because I limit the meat and processed foods I eat. I can't afford the Sensa anymore, either, lol :P

Losing weight is a combo of diet and exercise. Restricting to one won't work.
Also, you should feel how much of your waist size is fat, in comparison to how broad your ribcage is. I have a friend who desperately tried to get thinner, but she has a broad ribcage so a wasp taille will never be for her...

dieting as I am told never works because you have to change your lifestyle or the weight comes back. You have to cut out the crap you eat, and find new foods that are healthy and you can eat a proper portion of it 4 times a day and provide you with what you need to exercise at least 4 times a week to burn the calories. And the food can't just be healthy, it has to be prepared healthy. Use olive oil spray for example instead of corn oil or butter. Once you get to your ideal weight, you can enjoy foods that aren't so healthy in moderation as long as you keep exercising.
