I am about 7 lbs. from goal and really would love to connect with others who are at goal or close. I have hit goal before (several times) but have not KEPT it off for more than a month or so before it just started creeping back ..... This close to goal the weight comes off soooo slooooowwww and I get in the mindset that "I look ok here" which is true but I WANT TO REACH GOAL:) Not sure if this makes sense but maybe someone out there understands.....please "friend" me if you do!!

    I am about 9 lbs from ONEderland... (AKA 199 and below ) I have not seen the 1 hundreds since I was in my teens. So I am really looking forward to that day happening..

    I'm 7 1/2 pounds away from goal. I haven't been this light since the 90's, and I haven't been this small since my early teens. I know as long as I continue to make time for exercise, I'll be okay, but that has always been my issue, is that exercise is the first thing to go when I find myself stressed for time. Not this time though - I'm keeping it as my me time, knowing that it will make me a better mother, wife and person to take an hour or so most days of the week to myself.

    I'm about 3.5lbs below goal. I decided to re-adjust my goal and keep going (just keeping doing what I've been doing all along). My weight loss has definitely slowed, but I'm happy losing 0.5-1lbs/week. .

    I've been going back and forth between 9-12lbs from goal since June . I started Insanity this week and have some water weight gain that's making it even more frustrating. Would love some friends close to goal as well :)
