Last Big Push

megaroonies

I have been using MFP for about 2 years I think. I have lost 79 lbs. I would like to get my ultimate
goal of 145. My goal weight is a little funny to me because when I started my weight loss journey in Sept
2009, 165 was my goal weight. It sounded so unreachable. I started my journey because I have always
been the big girl. We were poor when I was growing up and was shown bad eating habits. I now have
two children and did not want either one of them to have to endure what I did growing up.
Being overweight all my life led to low self esteem and some bad decisions.
I am proud of my weight loss and the fact that I have kept it off. I now am at a weight loss stand
still. I fluctuate between 167-174. I have been doing this now for probably 4-6 months. I'd really like
to get past this hump and get to my goal. Does anyone have any great tips that have helped
you get through plateaus? Motivational words?

Eat at maintenance calories for a week and rest. Then go back to loss mode. That is my advice.
