    I am on my last pound and I will be happy with my goal weight.

    I may drop a few extra to reach my BF% but I hit maintenance in 1lb.

    I didn't do anything differently, I log, I lift 3x a week, I do my cardio/HIIT 2x a week.

    I haven't really stalled out either. I just weigh my food, measure liquids and do what I've been doing the last 10months.

    The only thing I have been doing for the last two weeks is upping my calories 100 each week as I get closer...starting this week I am eating 1800 a day. I will continue to do that until I hit maitenance.

    Continue logging everything you are consuming. Those last few lbs can be a pain. Your body wants to hold onto them. Depending on what your goal is, it may be challenging. If what you've been doing works, keep doing it. Hit those calorie/macro goals and get in your workouts. You'll get there. It just takes time and consistency.
