The last 10-15 pounds is always the toughest to shed and I've been struggling with this remaining "skinny fat" for the past 2 years. This app really does the trick. I started out at around 150 about 3 years ago but unfortunately I don't have any pics. The first 15 pounds came off very quickly and then I plateaued at around 133-135 for the past 2 years until about a month ago.

I've posted pics after one month of using this app. One I reach my goal I will continue to use this app to maintain and possibly work to put on some muscle mass.

Running 4 miles daily
Consuming 1200-1500 cal daily

Starting weight 133
Current weight 125
Goal weight 120

FYI I'm 5'7".

Ill post another pic in a couple weeks when I reach my goal.

    Thanks Durham! My goal is to get really cut and defined. I haven't seen my abs in a decade and now I can finally see a hint of them surfacing through the layer of subcutaneous torso fat! Going for the 6 pack!

    Reporting back after a month and some change...

    The second 5 weeks the weight has come off much more logarithymically..only 3 additional pounds lost. Now at 122, but that seems to have made all the difference as far as the last remaining bit of "love handle".

    My goal now is to obtain that "V" shape and lose the tiny bit of remaining subcutaneous fat covering up my obliques and get that "six pack". I figure 2 more pounds should get me there.

    I'll post an update when I reach my final goal!

    I've also begun lifting weights and building muscle. So that may be the reason why I've only dropped 3 additional pounds.
