Congrats on the 74lbs lost! That's amazing

I just joined last week too, and I've found a post that was REally helpful: it's under general diet and weight loss help, called: In Place of a road map 2.0. It explains sustainable weight loss, including those last few pounds. Before I read through that post (It's long) I had no idea how many calories I should actually be eating a day or even what a reasonable weight loss goal was. It points you to a web site "Fat 2 Fit Radio" that has calculators to figure out current body fat percentages and what a fat percentage you would be at at your goal weight etc.
One reason you might be having trouble with those last few pounds is that you're closer to your ideal body fat percentage than you think you are, or you are actually eating too few calories . . . the post and that web site will help you figure that out

You might/probably know all this already but I'd mention it in case you didn't, it sure helped me!
Good luck with those last few lbs!!
