Hello! :) Just joined & looking for tips & pointers!

My name is Courtney. I'm 25, & from the Pittsburgh area. I started my weight loss journey last January where I started out at 163 pounds. My wedding was in June which was my major motivation to finally lose some weight! I got down to 137.5 for our wedding. I have since gained 3 lbs, and ideally am looking to get down to about 125-130 pounds. I hit my goal of 140 for our wedding, but now would love to set a new goal and pass the old one up. I haven't been in the 130's since highschool, so it would feel great to be there again. I have a daughter who is almost 2 and a half so it has been a job to get all of the baby weight off, but as of right now I'm 15 lbs. lighter than my pre-pregnancy weight. I'm on the Advocare Herbal Cleanse right now. It's 10 days long and I'm on day 7. I hoping it helps me lose at least a couple pounds. If anyone has any tips or pointers for me to lose about 10 lbs. I'd really appreciate it! My weight is at a standstill and I can't really get it to budge! I do go to the Gym regularly and will do 10 to 20 min. on the elliptical then strength training. Thank you!

The heavier you are, the easier it is to lose weight...it's when you get down close to your goal weight that the pounds start to hang on for dear life! I think if you feel and look good, then what the scale says doesn't really matter. Just keep doing what you're doing to stay in shape.
