in Motivation and Support
I have at most 20 lbs to go before reaching my ultimate goal weight of 120lbs (I'm 5'6). I've lost these pounds over and over again, but can never keep it off for long. Usually I think it's because I get there by restricting too heavily and then end up having a few good binges. Not this time. Trying to take it gradually to make it stick. Anyone else in the same position want to become friends and motivate each other?

    I have about 22lbs to go
    5'5"
    Cw: 157
    GW:135

    I have not been this weight since high school so it's hard for me to see the finish line... As of now I have lost 10lbs in 2.5 months which I think is a good rate not to mention I still enjoy the "junk" foods in life.

    We can do this!

    Same here! I'm a chronic yoyo dieter. I actually like to run and exercise and am very active... But-- I eat like a champ and frequently go over the edge (food is so good). I need to figure out what works to maintain a healthy weight long term. 25 5'3 and 13 lbs to go.

    Yeah, I find it a lot easier to stick to a regular workout routine than to stay really consistent with my diet. I've gone 19 days with sticking to my cal goal though, so feeling good :)
