Hi,
My name is Cate and I have about 2 months until I am a bridesmaid in my sister's wedding, which is turning out to be the event of the decade ;) tons of poeple going to be there.
Anyway I have about 10 pounds left till I am at a place where I'll be happy, 15 pounds from ecstatic.
I would like to start a group of us with just the last 10 to go. It is the hardest!

    I need to be in this group. I'm at my last 10. I have plateau'd and just started zig zagging my calories last Friday so hoping for some loss this coming Friday. We shall see.

    Hey there...I'm in the same boat. 10lbs to be at a good healthy range weight and 15 if I want to do a big happy dance!!:tongue: I've really been struggling staying motivated since it seems like I've been at 157 (I'm 5'8) for eons. Dropped the baby weight from 174 to 157 pretty easily with calorie counting and regular exercise but this last round of lbs just will not go!!!!!!!!!

    I am 5-9 lb from happy and about 12.5 from ecstatic! On Monday I cut way back on carbs and added some HIIT to my P90X routine to try to get rid of the last few pounds NOW!!!!!!!!

    I just saw your post & I am right there with you! My hubby tells me I look great BUT I know I would look & feel better if I could take off 10-15 more pounds. It seems I am just at a stand still though. I'm also having trouble getting my "baby" pooch to disappear... when I'm standing I look like my tummy is flat but if I bend over there it is :( Yuck!

    This is my May plan too! Only on day 3 of it but so far I'm surviving...surprisingly!!:laugh:

    I'm in!
    I'm guessing that I'm pretty much exactly 10 lbs away from what I want. 5 lbs from being happy.
    (Well, it actually depends on what the mirror says, not the scale)
    First 10 were fairly easy, but it's now getting harder!

    same here, and these last 10 lbs are the hardest and i havent seen any losses in a few weeks and im starting to get discouraged and after easter i fell off the wagon on eating and working out and im having a hard time gettin myself back on it.. like i said totally discouraged, ive always been able to get to like 138 so easily then from there to 130 is like impossible.. so frustrating! grr

    Does any amount of weight loss ever get rid of the "baby pooch"? I am in the same boat; 4 lbs from my goal and 9lbs from ecstatic, but I really feel like the "flabbiness" will always be there. When I stand up, totally flat stomach. Sit down? Pooch. I could probably try some more ab work, but I think it's mostly skin, not fat.

    Count me in:) Easter was a disaster for any weight loss...and I've been holding steady at 127 for the last few weeks! I'd be ecstatic to get down to 117!!

    For me, five is the new ten!

    I'm about 5 lbs away from my ecstatic goal, but no one ever seems to start a group for struggling with the last five

    I'm 10 lbs away from my goal... 5-10 to be happy and 15-20 to be ecstatic- although I don't really think I will see that ecstatic phase. I don't think my body will let me get that low. Hopefully I can get to happy though!

    I am about ten pounds from happy, 13 from my ultimate goal weight. My goal for May is to SWEAT everyday - even if that means dancing around like an idiot on the days I don't have a lot of time! Love to join the group!

    I'm down to those last very very stubborn pounds too!! I had hit a plateau back in February and kept working it for a month, until I got so frustrated I gave up... So I'm here for the support to make it through this last phase! Best of luck to all of you!!

    Hi! I've only got 2 pounds to go to the goal I originally set when I joined MFP.
    I've now extended my target weight by another 6 pounds, so I'm currently 8 lbs from my dream goal!

    I need to lose 10 lbs, but would love 15lbs! I'm getting married in October and refuse to be a fat bride. I've been gaining and losing the same 10 lbs for the last year. I need the motivation and support to reach my goal!

    I'm in. I've got 9 pounds to go until I'm at my lowest weight in 10 years... then another 4-10 until I'm at my final, final goal (healthy BMI). So 13-19 pounds, depending on how I feel when I get there. I'd like to lose that first nine before I hit the Florida beaches in June... don't know if it will be possible, but I'm certainly trying!

    I will join. I have about 9 pounds to loose to hit my goal and 10-11 to be completely satisfied. I would like to loose at least 2-3 pounds by May 18. Here's to hard work and dedication! We can do it!
