Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if there was a "Last 10lbs" group or if anyone is interested in joining one.

I have 9 more lbs to lose but can go for 10.

Anyone?

    I'm in! I could use tips/advice/recipes and such to lose those last few pounds. Losing the last 10lbs is a different game than losing high numbers, I think.

    Keep me posted!

    I'm in - it's really tough when you get to smaller amounts of FAT to lose

    Count me in! I'm on my last 10, and it's a much slower process than the rest!!

    Count me in! Ideally I'd like to lose 15, but 10 is definitely a possibility. I've lost 28 pounds since my daughter was born in June, but need to get the rest of this baby weight off!

    I'm in! I think it is going to require strict eating and a step up in exercising! I need someone to hold me to both!!

    YAY!!

    I personally have not starting exercising as of yet. I am waiting for my new orthotics and shoes to come in first.

    I've been making sure I drink all of my water and watch what I eat. I've actually lost a total of 4 lbs so far (prior to joining this site) and the last 9lbs is going to be hard!

    What is everyones weigh in days?

    My name is Erin, and I like to weigh in on Thurs. I actually check the scale almost every day just to keep myself on track, but that doesn't work for everyone because some people freak out about small daily fluctuations in weight. I use my Thurs weight as my weight that I record here on MFP.

    I weigh in on Thursdays as well.

    I'm in! I have a bit more than 10lbs to lose - about 12 or so.
    Weigh in days are usually Monday's but that can easily change.

    Welcome!
    I started out with Mondays prior to joining this site. Because I joined on a Thursday, that is my new day!

    Hi! My name is Shawna

    I usually weigh in on Mondays because it makes me think through out the weekend about what that number is going to look like on Monday.... not that it has work of recent. :grumble: But I can do what ever day is decided on!

    I have seen some groups have weekly challenges also. Such as eating 2-3 servings of vegetables a day, drinking our 8 glasses of water, doing some sort of push ups, sits ups, jumping jacks ect every day in addition to whatever exercising we may have done ect...
    Does that interest anyone?

    I am excited!

    Welcome Shawna!

    I don't think we need to change our weigh in days. We should do what is comfortable for us.

    I am up for a weekly challenge..however..I'm not in workout mode just yet. So I'll participate when I can!

    I'd like to join as well. My name is Tara and I have 10 more before I hit my goal. I do expect this 10 to be the hardest. Recently I've stared paying close attention to my macro-nutrients (carb, protein, fat, fiber, sodium). I weigh myself everyday to see how foods effect my body... I track my weight daily.

    I weigh in on Tuesdays. I am up for anything Shawna. I have hit a plateau and can not seem to budge the scale. I am running, eating much less, and really trying, but I just can't seem to do it. This is my week! I am going to push harder than ever. Today,
    I weigh 141. My goal for next Tuesday....139!

    Do you think because you aren't eating enough that you are starting to go into starvation mode?
    I have hit plateaus on many occasions and sometimes I would shock my body. Drink alot more water or up my protein and reduce my carbs slightly but still eat the recommended calories.
    Just a thought ;-)
    Keep at it!
