    Achievable but you will need to be accurate with your calorie counting and very patient. The last 10 pounds can be tough.

    7lbs won't make a *kitten* of difference in my experience!

    Do you currently lift weights? Body composition is probably more of a concern than the actual number. Start lifting and you should start noticing a difference in how you look.

    You need to work on your self esteem or 7lbs won't make any difference.

    And there is always someone else who is prettier/thinner/fitter/bigger this/smaller that... stop comparing yourself to other people. Comparison is the thief of joy.

    This sounds good to me. I'm 137 and looking to reach the high 120's, but I have been around 135 and quite small when I was stronger and leaner. So aiming for that lower weight, but I will be happy to see body recomposition. Feel free to add me as a friend. I am working on my self-esteem as well and I find MFP is a great place for supporting that.
