How strange! Scale is moving again after 6 months
I'm 5 foot 2, and have lost 33 kgs now since April 8 2010. I'm currently 57.5 Kg (127 pounds) I've done it the slow way so as to preserve muscle mass and have enough energy to perform at sports and have a nicely toned body. I exercise intensely and do heavy weights. For the last year or so I've been eating from between…

close to goal weight, feel a lot hungrier...why?
so i am about 5lb from goal weight. i noticed all of a sudden i am feeling hungrier. i don't want to up my calories too much because i want to lose that last few lb. also noticed i am feeling cooler in my body, like i get colder easily, want a blanket more often, etc... so i'm wondering if this also correlates with it…

Progress Thread
Hey guys! I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread where people can post their progress in losing their last 10 lbs, whether it be a scale-based or non-scale victory! Post your successes (however big or small) and tips and tricks for the rest of the group! Feel free to post whenever, and it may be a great…

For me it's the last 4 lb that are tough
I feel like i've been trying so hard to get these last 4 lbs off. i have been trying to get to 122 and i'm back up to 126 again. it's not really that much weight... you'd think i could do it! i had a really tough week where i pigged out several days and that is what did it. now i'm back at 1500 calories again. i'm afraid…

New year and time to get serious...again
I am sure I am not the only one who loosened up the food diary a bit over the last few weeks. I made myself accountable for the damage I did and logged my 2 pound gain into MFP yesterday. This now puts me back at 4 pounds until goal. I definitely let a lot of days slide with no logging between holiday parties, my husband's…

Anyone want to do a last 10 lb accountability/challenge
it's gone a little dead on here. just wanted to see if anyone wanted to start a new challenge for this year... any ideas? i know a lot of us have just a little weight to lose or are on maintenance. trying to think of somethign we could do that might give us new goals or a new focus for the year. any thoughts?

Any non-weight related goals?
I'm pretty close to my goal weight and decided I need another type of goal to work towards. So I am trying to revamp my rear end, make it firmer and awesome! Anyone else have a specific area they'd like to improve or some other non-weight related goal?

Increasing calories
So last time when i hit a wall i upped my calories a bit and lost a little. now im stuck again. My friend on MFP started these 2 threads a while ago which i was reading though last night. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/282320-caloric-intake-body-fat…

hi Intro
hi everyone! Just wanted to post an intro before I jump in. I'm 5'9" and was at my highest weight in July at 162. Still healthy I think but I wasn't comfortable so I came back to MFP and decided to get serious about things. I've lost 27 lbs since, and got to my first goal of 135. I just reset my goal to lose another 5 lbs…

Hey
Hey everyone! I just joined this group because I am really on my last 20, but I got down to my last 10 lbs and then gained some back because of an injury. I am losing my motivation and wanted to be around people who are in the same mindset with the last 10-20 lbs. It's freaking rough to conquer, that's for sure!

Appointment with a nutritionist - awesome!
So, frustrated with finding the magic number to help me lose more steadily, I made an appointment with a running nutritionist (as I am a runner (30 - 40 miles per week). It was SOOOO helpful! It was nice to get some feedback from a professional - even though I knew a lot of the things she was going to say, I was always…

The Post-Thanksgiving Thread: how did you do?
I had 2 Thanksgiving dinners, one Thursday, one Friday, and was traveling out of state from Thursday night until yesterday. I kept my portion control in check, though I certainly had pie 3 days in a row. I weighed in this morning and am exactly 147...the same weight I have been plateauing at for almost 3 months now. In one…

I GET IT NOW!
Ok, so this is really starting to make sense. I got some clarification from my nutritionist that I thought I would share. So losing weight is all about creating a deficit, right? The greater the deficit, the larger the loss - but it gets complicated when we have less to lose, because we don't want to go too low in calories…

Food scale - my new obsession!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this thing. It is totally changing how I'm eating - I can't believe how much I was underestimating calories - especially fruit and meat/fish/poultry. I love making salads and stir fries with it. I just set a big bowl on the scale, set it to zero and add a veggie, weigh it, track it. Then I just leave it in…
