I would like to lose 10 period! By spring would be even better. I usually lift a few days a week and throw in cardio 1-2 days. I started eating at 1200 in Aug. upped to 1300 in Nov. I'm trying the TDEE-20% so I upped again to 1400. I hope I don't gain weight!

I'm in! I'm 5'9", currently 147 hoping to get back down to the 130-133 mark: pre-"I moved in with my boyfriend" weight
I was doing Keto for a while but it wasn't really doing anything. Now I'm hitting the gym in earnest 4-5 times a week (45 min on the elliptical plus some REALLY light free weights haha) and set a goal of 1100 net cals.
Anyone feel free to friend/add me! I definitely need support, and am happy to give it!0 -

I'm a Beachbody Coach and have a great solution for people who are wanting to lose the last few stubborn pounds. I just started my next challenge...it's p90x and substituting Shakeology for 1 meal! I have some links that you guys can look at to see if it would be a good fit for you! And if you want to become a coach, a ton of benefits and you get everything a lot cheaper...it's also a way to help out people just like you! Let me know if you would like more info and I can send you a few links to different things like Shakeology or if you are wanting to become a coach i can send you some of those links also!0

Did you find that bumping up to 1300 helped the weight loss move faster, slower, or the same?I would like to lose 10 period! By spring would be even better.

Anyone know of a good exercise to get rid of that fat under your arm that jiggles when you wave? That is the number one thing that needs to go!!!
I'm looking for the exact same thing! I really want to get rid of the arm flab! I'll do anything!!!! :sad:0 -
Was this for me? If so, I'm doing aerobics 5 days a week (just started 3,5 weeks ago) and I eat around 1,400 cals per day.
Yep. I've never weighed less than I do now in my adult life so I'm very curious about how my body will respond.
I'm really impatient though lol but I know I'll not give up.
It was to ALL! I want to get ideas, because my progress is moving sooooooooooooo slow.

My progress is also slow although I started logging my food here 1 week ago. As long as I can lose 1 lb per week I'd be very happy. Now I really have to fight to lose the last lbs!0 -
Would love to join you all. I'm down to my last 10 pounds too. The pounds are taking more and more work to remove, and this is going to require a LOT of effort! I'm doing 30 day shred daily and eating 1200 calories (if I can manage not to cheat!). Would love some supportive friends.0

Me, me, me! Although my goal weight is a little less than 10lbs. Strickland805, the best way to get rid of that arm jiggle fast is to start lifting heavy.
Agree! Once I started doing this, my arms firmed up a lot and I don't have "bat wings" anymore. My triceps actually look somewhat defined. Not a LOT, mind you, since I'm pretty new to serious lifting, but still!
To lift heavy is what I keep hearing. I don't thrive in the gym though. Can I buy some dumbbells and work my triceps at home?
Any special routines you can recommend? I hate my arm flab!0 -
Count me in..0

I have less than 10 pounds left. Once the weather here warms up and I can take my long walks again I know I can take off those last few pesky pounds. Used to have a treadmill till the darn thing died. booo Feel free to add me as a friend.0

I can't heavy lift due to herniated discs so I have a weight machine and small free weights and lift at home. I won't be super fab lean mean machine but don't really care. I'm happy with being fit and trim. I can do 20lb barbells for biceps and can do up to 80lbs on the machine with the pull down bar but thats my limit.0 -

If I started a "last ten pounds" group would you guys join it? We could do a weekly weigh in or something?
I am 5'6", 147, been trying for 135 forever.0 -
Working out most days of the week both cardio and strenght , 1200 calories very slow move of the scale , only can see fast results when I have a cheat meal the scale goes up right away . I would be happy to lose at least eight
I m 5.4 138. in my good mornings 44 years old . struggle everyday and seems like all this work is mostly for maintainance0 -
Yep, I have about 8 left to get to goal, and it's not gonna be easy. Add me if you want!0

I'm in! I'm 5'0" and 120 pounds, on 1200 calories/day but definitely don't exercise enough. I'm looking to lose 10-12 pounds in time for bikini season. I could use some social pressure and accountability to keep me motivated. I would definitely join a Last 10 Pounds group.0

I was thinking of that but I've never done it before. I'd sure be in. :-)0 -
I'm here - old enough to be your mom, but I'm actually kind of fun. If my age doesn't bother you, I'm here for you.0

I'm right there with you. I have 6 pounds to go and have been at a standstill for awhile. I joined a gym 3 weeks ago and have been working out daily (mostly exercise classes- zumba, circuit training, Piyo, etc). I have tried to keep my calories right at 1200, sometimes eating back calories from exercise. Luckily I did measurements before I joined the gym. With all the work I have put in the scale hasn't budged! However, I have lost an inch around my hips and 1/2 inch from each thigh. So, I guess I'm toning things up, which is what I want, I just would like to see the scale number lower!! Feel free to add me, I'd love more support!0

I'm in for this, I haven't got any friends on MyFitness pal so a bit of support would help! I had managed to lose 2 stone between June and November, but over Christmas I gradually regained a stone and haven't had motivation since, but I would love to lose that stone again!
I try to eat healthily, get 1200 calories a day and exercise when I can, but do toning excercises most days.
I'm 23, weigh 129 lbs, 5ft 5ins and I'd ideally like to get to lbs - add me if you like and we can support each other0 -
I am also in need of losing these last 10 pounds before bikini season!! Back around a year ago I lost right at 25 pounds going from 148 pounds to 123 pounds and unfortunately now I have gained almost all of this weight back! The past 6-8 months of my life have been some very rough times but I am now ready to put everything behind me and get back to my goal weight! As of today I am around 138-140 pounds and this time I am looking to reach 128 pounds also I am 5'7! I would really enjoy seeing a decent amount of weight loss by March 20 (First day of Spring) :flowerforyou:
Add me if you want!! We can keep each other motivated! Good luck to everybody!0 -
I will turn 53 April 10th and would like to have lost 10 lbs by then. I am setting a high goal, but I can do it, the right way too!!
Lets do it ! I just finished logging day 4.0 -
I'm in!! I'm 23, 5'5 and 134 pounds. I'd ultimately like to get to 120, but 124 by spring would be awesome! Its tough losing that last bit so add me and lets give each other motivation and support!0
