I am looking for some MFP girlie friends who are trying to lose those last pesky 10 pounds. I am not trying to leave the guys out, but lets be honest, guy's bodies are completly different. I am currently 127 and trying to get down to 120. These last 10 are proving a tad difficult to lose but I'm working on it:) Add me if you are in a similiar situation and want to be friends!

    My butt is so nice that when i used to have long hair guys would whistle at me from behind.

    i am in litrally the same boat,

    in 20 and ive got about 5kg (about 10 pounds) to go before i reach my ideal weight

    although an extra 5 would be nice, i was told to stop at 55! which i think is sensible...

    i update my diary every single day and try to eat clean....

    the last 10 are always hard to lose because that is when your body plateau's......sometimes the only thing that works is drastically changing something, whether it by in your diet or exercise life......and that is sometimes the hardest part :(
    i have been trying to 'successfully' loose the last 10 pounds for the past year.....i need some serious motivation :)

    I'm right there with you. I am 25 (26 in a few weeks) 5'4" and 146. I would love to be around 135 (I looked great at that weight with muscle - might go lower if it seems to be right but I'm real curvy so probably not). These last 10 just won't go away!

    I'm the same. I'm officially in the healthy BMI :drinker: but only just!

    My goal weight is about 8lbs so I'm going to aim for 10 just to be safe :wink:

    I'm 21, 5'6"

    I'm right there with you guys! I am 23--24 in two months--and currently weight 135(ish). I'd love to get to 125--and I've been there before so I know that I can!

    I just started on here and have no friends, or motivational supporters! We should all support each other in this goal.

    It seems to me that the last pounds are painfully hard to lose. So we may be in for the long haul!

    Hey Girls, Some of you are on the exact boat as me . Im 5'7 , 22 , and about 7 pounds away from my initial goal. However I still have a long road ahead my legs are not at all how I want them . But I think I will have to start focusing on fitness , strength and toning rather then weight soon.

    I'm 22yrs and 5'7" ~126lbs, trying to get to 118-120. I have moved to more resistance training because I was starting to get skinnyfat. So eventhough I am working on body composition now, I still want to lose. Some days I feel like I would be so happy just to see 125 lol
