Looking for support buddies who are nearly at their target ...

Options
I've only ever had a couple of MFP friends and I have to admit I had a purge when I put on a few pounds over my holiday and felt like I was going to have to start all over again (I'm a little more clued up on water retention and sodium now!)

Is there anybody out there who is struggling at the final hurdle with a few more pounds to lose and would like more friends for support? Feel free to add me!

I'm 133 lbs, 5 ft 8, looking to get down to 126-130 lbs (healthily) and then maintain.

    You may add me if you like! I'm 116 lbs but 5 ft 3 and looking to get down to 105-110. So far lost almost 30 lbs but the last few are very tricky! I'm struggling a little…

    We'll get there

    Actually just this minute posted a reply to a really similar topic to this! Seems like everyone who is struggling at the final stretch is posting today :blush:

    I am 76lbs down with 34lbs left, I have been doing cardio and weights as I go to try and reach maintenance toned and fit as well as just weighing less!

    This was the thread I posted on earlier as well >>> http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10044493/85lbs-lost-last-30lbs-to-go

    You can add me too! After the birth of my son 4 years ago, I lost most the weight (SO much harder than after my first child 8 yrs earlier), but I can't seem to lose the last 8 damn it! So I'm hoping joining a couple MFP groups for support will help :smile:

    I am new to MFP and am looking to lose about 17 pounds . I am 5.7" and currently weigh 157. Lost all the baby weight but now want to be super fit! I tend to hit a plateau on weight loss as I ramp up my fitness and need motivation to keep going and stop focusing on the scales. Training for a Tough Murder in August

    I was 1.8 lbs from my goal when the holidays hit. I gained 14 lbs in three weeks! :(
    I ate healthy, but had been eating pretty clean beforehand. During the holidays there was a lot more eating out... I can only assume that the processed/salty stuff in restaurants did it, even though I opted for healthier choices?
    In any case, I am 5'2 and my goal weight was 150. (I started at 210.) I'm back around 160 now, drat! So about ten to go... but I think I am going to shoot for 140 once I hit 150.
    Y'all feel free to add me.
