    Been holding onto the last 10lbs for a few months now. I'm healthy & definitely fit, but I'd like to lose the very last bit of this. Since hardcore committing, I've lost 2 of those pounds. Woot!

    I have been the same weight for about 10 years. (150-155, 5'7"). I would love to shake 10 pounds off and tone up my stomach and legs!

    I see your stats - you are where i want to be right now!!!! Think of that and be happy - im only 2 cm taller than you - your goal of 55 sounds super tiny!!!! However we all know where we want to be to feel confident - keep up the good work!!

    I'm in! I've been battling the same 10 lbs for 2 years now! It's TIME to get it off. Maybe by August 1, to be realistic. I'm 56 years old, female, 5'9" and 168 lbs. I58 is my dream!

    I'm 5'2 and at 133lb now but 120 is my goal. I'm just not sure what to do beyond cardio, any tips on how to shake off these pesky 10 (+3) pounds?

    I am looking to loose about 10-15 lbs. I am currently at 132 biggest I have ever been and not liking it at all...my thighs have a rash from rubbing together in this heat WTH is up with that! Not liking it one bit! So as of June 1st I started the 30 day Ab Challenge, 30 day Squat Challenge every day and doing the P90X lean program but only every other day due to my busy schedule. I also started keeping track of my calories again. The new scanner option helps a ton with that. I have a hard time getting enough healthy calories and am normally below 1000 thats not subtracting my workout calories I am losing. So I need support in eating healthy, reaching my calories, and keep the workouts going. I have my 20 yr high school reunion in September I WILL BE FIT by then.

    YES! I need to lost the last 10 pounds too! I have lost 35 but have been at a plateau now for almost 6 weeks. SO looking forward to ridding myself of these last frustrating 10! I am committing to upping my exercise to a minimum of 4 times per week.

    UGH! I gained 10 pounds this year, so YES! I need to lose them! My office has a food court and it's ruined me with high calorie lunches and sedentary living. I just got a new job so I'm hoping the new job and my new apartment will make me work out more and eat better. :)

    I am still with you even though I have had a severe knee injury for a month. I am still losing weight, however I noticed that I am gaining some of my inches back. I still want to lose 11 more lbs. I have 6 more to go to reach my first goal. Any suggestions on what I can do to keep from gaining back inches while I cannot exercise ( other than my physical therapy I am receiving) would be greatly appreciated!! I do intend to start strength training with my arms.

    OK I am starting today! I am in it.

    10 more, the last few are tough but it only takes commitment and routine. At first I really need to just focus on committing to a routine.
    Here are things I promise the group and myself to do:

    I will log my food in everyday- netting 1200 calories
    I Will continue to run at least 3 x week
    I will do yoga with my husband in the evenings ( yoga is not a euphemism for sex, we'll do that too)
    I will start weight training ( kettle bell, dumbbell and calisthenics) 3 x week

    that should do it!!!!!!

    Good luck all, wish me luck too

    I have 7pounds to go. 122-115 I started out at 140. I'd like to get there by my b-day, July 29th but we'll see.. Ever since I hit 125 it’s been harder to get them off. I can get about a pound a week with a lot of effort.

    I'm in too! I started 2 and a half weeks ago with the goal of losing 11 pounds. So far I have lost 5 of those pounds. It's my birthday weekend so hopefully I can still stay on track. Aiming to have the last 6 pounds gone by the end of July!!

    Good luck to everyone and anyone feel free to add me or message me for advice or support.

    I just joined the group after searching for one that fit my needs...keep hearing the same old thing from people around me - "you don't need to lose weight, you look great." Yay - I found this group! I have been back to running consistently since November and am scheduled for a half marathon in August and a full marathon in January. It would be great to have this last 10 pounds off and tone up and strengthen my core! Starting yesterday, I am incorporating a 30-day AB challenge in to my schedule and would like to get in some weight training twice a week. This comes on top of a 4 day run schedule of 20-25 miles a week right now. Early morning runs and gym time! :yawn:

    Hi,

    I want to sign up for this. I really need something to keep me motivated and going to the gym regularly.

    I have really struggled to go to the gym recently due to feeling really low, tired and lacking energy. I have just been diagnosed with depression and I am currently off work due to this. One of things I agreed with my doctor is after a week or so on the meds I would try and go to the gym so had my first session yesterday after being out for months. Enjoyed being back in the gym and it has been done up since I was last in so looks good.

    I am aiming to go tomorrow morning if I can get up ( not sleeping properly atm) and my first few sessions are mainly light cardio / weights.

    Starting weight as of yesterday was - 9st 11

    Thanks

    10 pounds here I go! I definitely want to try. People always tell me that I don't have to lose weight, but I think I do. I'm 4'11'' and I weigh 118 pounds. I believe I should be at about 100-105 pounds. By the end of July I want to lose about 5-6 pounds or even more. Hopefully by the end of the summer I will finally lose 10-20 pounds. :smile:
    This will be THE YEAR!!!

    DONE!

    49 years old, 5'3 apple shape, small/medium frame

    90 days from 137lb to 126.8lb
    4.5 inches off waist
    4 inches off hips
    ... and that apple belly that bulged from below the boobs - GONE! (along with the double chin, muffin top and bra strap back fat!)

    and its staying off - losing that 10lb was hard work!

    good luck everyone!

    I'm in!

    I want to lose around 10lb by the end of July.. more if it's possible.. But 10lb would be nice.

    I'm in my "ideal" BMI but I'm not happy. I want to be closer to the weight I used to be in college.. is that too crazy?

    I already follow a clean diet, no bread or pasta and low in sugars and carbs. In one month and a half I lost 6 pounds but honestly, I didn't do a lot of exercise.. So I want to incorporate exercise and a couple of detox to speed up my metabolism...

    So let's see how it goes!

    Yup! This is me too! 5'6" and just want to be under 135, where I feel the best, for my Hawaii vacation in November. Trying for the balance between too obsessive and giving up entirely...is there such a place?

    So far 6 lbs down of the last 11 I had when I posted before. So now I have the last 5 lbs left to go. Hoping it's gone before the end of the summer. (Not trying to kill myself. been steadily losing weight since Thanksgiving and intend to keep it off this time!)
