Healthy BMI for my birthday--possible, or a bit longer?

I'd really love to be in the healthy BMI range for my birthday (June 7th). That's 6 pounds and 25 days away (1.6 pounds per week)--is it doable? Or not a good idea? I am fairly close to my goal, as you can see by my ticker, so I'm thinking that my weight loss has slowed enough that I probably won't be able to make it. But I wanted some opinions from the general forum.

I generally eat right (even while eating out), try to take at least 10,000 steps per day, and can stick to a goal (that's what got me here in the first place).

    Maybe, but it would be painful and you might not make it - probably wouldn't.

    Try for three pounds in three weeks and buy yourself something great when you make it.

    You've lost a lot. You know it gets slower as you get closer to your goal and things go in fits and starts.
